Glen More Gameplay Runthrough

[@PaprikaSix]

Happy 100 reviews! Your videos are great, I love the detail and the interesting range of games you choose - you don't just play the hottest games of the moment, which is nice.

[@TheRooster1972]

Congratulations on the 100th run through. I have to say out of all the boardgame reviews and videos I really enjoy yours the most. They really give a sense of the game and if it is for you. The fact also that you mainly play 2 player helps as our group is small as well. Up to four players usually. I also love your game choices as we love euros as well. Now I just have to wait until they come out here in Australia. And just to make others jealous I can pick this up here in Oz - highest bidder?

Hi Richard, I finally obtained a copy of this game from an Canadian online retailer! The availability in North America has been very elusive for quite some time. Ever since I saw this video 2 years ago, I have been wanting to buy this game thanks to your enthusiastic recommendation. As some people know, it is not available in the US or even in English language for that matter. But the German version from Ravensburger is finally somewhat easy to get a hold of through Canada, so I will be playing the same version you are showing here in the video. Thanks for putting this video out and fueling my acquisition disorder!

Congratulations on 100 episodes!

[@knehren]

Around 23:00ish you should have put down the grain field first and the pasture after that, because the grain field was the tile you got first. So you should have had 2 grain and 1 cattle.

[@twominutepenalty]

congrats on your 100th runthrough!

[@kevinerskine3299]

Congrats on 100!

[@PaprikaSix]

I am so excited that I am finally getting this game! A Polish friend is sending me the German edition for only $25! Woohoo!! :D

[@lordsplodge]

Clansman. As in a Scottish person; a member of a clan.

[@eastwoodk]

Ahhhh - this has been in my collection for some time - now I need to get this out and play!!!!! :)

[@dabearz27]

Every time you call them dudes I think of the Big Lebowski, lol.

[@deniselockard7822]

Shouldn't Jen have received clansmen on her 3rd and 4th moves since she then activated the village? 13:00 ish.

[@deniselockard7822]

My bad. The symbol in the right hand corner is a one-time deal. Thanks for the run through - this makes it so much easier to learn the game :)

[@basslover1100]

another great video, here's to the next 100 :)

[@cabernetfran]

Hi Richard! I was abble to get a copy of Glen More, the english Rio grande version. According to BGG the Ravensburger version weight double as Rio Grande one. So german version has got better quality components that english one?

[@rahdo]

i've never seen the english version IRL so i can't say 100% for certain, but if you ask here: boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/66362/glen-more/forums/0 i'm sure you'll get a solid answer :)

[@chuckm1961]

You don't focus much (if at all?) on the end-game "give up 3 VP for each extra tile in your tableau as compared to player with least tiles in tableau." Picking up every tile you can get your hands on ... is not necessarily the best way to go. I have turned many a game around by trying to "get the most out of the least tiles" in this great game.

[@rahdo]

didn't i talk about that in final thoughts?

[@SGFlicksify]

He makes it clear he's comparing different ways of playing the game - taking small steps verses leaping to the more lucrative tiles. Clear enough in the video.

[@istifhanem]

I have the German version of this fun game. Where can I find the English aid for the buildings used in this video? Could not see it in the BGG Forum. Cheers,

[@rahdo]

+Emrah Göker i think this is what you're looking for: www.boardgamegeek.com/filepage/58915/special-tile-cards-english-text :)

[@istifhanem]

Yes that's it, I missed, my bad. Thanks!!

[@galahads]

Hey, great runthrough! A friend of mine just sent me a copy he got for me on Essen. Question: if you have enough movement points at your last round, can you actually turn all your clansmen into chieftains?

[@rahdo]

+Andre Souza yup, that would be a good final move if you can pull it off :)

[@Loverleezack]

Clansman isn't bad :(

[@Scubasgamecorner]

Where did you download that handy short rules card, I can't find that anywhere...does anyone have a link?

[@rahdo]

+Stephen Poulin boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/66362/glen-more/files?sort=hot&pageid=1 :)

[@thatsabigdoor]

You can find the German version he's demoing if you look around.

[@davqvist]

I think you forgot to pay for the tile at around 20:00. And I can't wait for 100 more games.

[@elee6606]

Just wondering, do you still own Glen More?

[@rahdo]

yup! you can see my entire collection here: ranked.rahdo.com :)

[@stephenc9475]

Question for everyone. How many times can I exchange resources at the fair or butcher (or any brown tile) for each activation? For instance if I have 4 Beef, can I use the butcher twice (2 for 4 VP, then 2 more for 4 VP) in one turn (activation)? Hope the question is clear. Thanks in advance.

[@rahdo]

+Stephen Coates afaik, you can only make the swap once per activation...

[@stephenc9475]

+rahdo Thanks. Big fan of your videos, where can I get a Rahdo Runs Through T-Shirt?

[@rahdo]

+Stephen Coates merch.rahdo.com (though I don't make a big deal about it, and make no real profit off of any of them) :)

[@stephenc9475]

FYI, it looks like there might be a chance of a reprinting in 2017.

[@stephenc9475]

Recently purchased game. Love it. In a 2 player game we call the die Richard, or Dick for short.

[@rahdo]

+Stephen Coates that die can be a dick sometimes, it's true! :)

[@whothennow24]

Clansman. It's okay to say it. My gosh.

[@rahdo]

sure it's okay to say, doesn't mean i'm comfortable saying :)

[@xD3adKl0wnx]

wow, what a great game, my girlfriend would likely love it! I just need to find a copy of it.. :/

[@simonjrobinson]

There's absolutely nothing wrong with saying 'clansman', as it refers to the clans (and their people) from our Celtic history. Just remember the film Highlander: "Connor MacLeod of the Clan MacLeod"

[@rahdo]

linguistically correct, but still feels (shudder)

[@simonjrobinson]

LOL! I know exactly what you think when you hear 'clan' . I guess you and I come from very different cultural/historical backgrounds because 'clan' for me is perfectly normal.

[@kosterix123]

1:35 ow now I understand, clansman refers to kkk, right? Funny the color is black then ;-)

[@Feirsteax]

I can't believe you are belittling these proud Highlanders by calling them "little dudes"

[@rahdo]

***** clearly it should have been "wee dudes" :)

[@ko9]

***** I think you mean "wee lads" ;-)

[@deepdivemusicreactions]

just got this version of the game. didn't find GM2 too interesting, and that gigantic box is a turn off for me.

[@rahdo]

LOT of game in a tiny box there! :)

[@Judgedredd1973]

100!!!

[@Junkusanagi]

NIce review but its OOP........
