SCYTHE - More Type 2 (Nord/Engineering)

[@lenakimarctaedius3056]

I really enjoyed the game. Thanx for uploading. If you would have moved out you mech and then let a worker swim to the village, could you have won or was there not enough time? I noticed that you don’t look at the scores so often compared to other players i sometimes watch. And special reason why you don’t look at the scoring? Also sometimes there seems to be online tournaments. Have you considered joining one?

Wow. I had really written off the Engineering board for the Nords. Looks like I was playing it completely wrong.

Glad I could help!

Great to see you doing Scythe video's again! I'm not sure if you only play digital/online, but are you familiar with the 'modular board'-expansion for the board game and if so, what do you think about it?

[@Reign274]

I own the modular board and all the content for Scythe! I think the modular board changes the game quite a bit, and I don't use it often enough to tell if I like it more or less. I'm pretty used to the normal board setup so I would say I like that more, probably.

[@MrBeeluh]

@@Reign274 I've played with the modular board for the first time last week and i like it very much. Definitely changes the game and makes things less predictable. Hope the expansion will come to the digital version soon too. On that same note, what are your thoughts on 'The Wind Gambit'?

[@Reign274]

@@MrBeeluh Never heard of it, is there a video of The Wind Gambit I can check out?

[@MrBeeluh]

​@@Reign274 Somehow my answer keeps disappearing... The Wind Gambit is the second expansion of Scythe, introducing Airships and Resolutions. Resolutions give an alternative way to end your games and are similar to the modular board in a sense that it changes the gameplay quite a bit and makes it less predictable. Airships are in my opinion an unnecessary addition, adding more complexity and slowing the gameplay down. You can check out the official site from Stonemaier Games or a video of the expansion on Watch it played

What does type 2 stand for?

[@Reign274]

Made a video recently talking about Type 1 and Type 2 on my channel! It's basically just if I have the best board/faction for 6 star or not (Type 2 being the latter).

[@maips4996]

what is type 2?

[@Reign274]

Type 2 is a style of gameplay I use to refer to not planning on getting the 6 star end, focusing on getting one bottom row star, and playing with a lot of move actions to control large amounts of territory. Works amazingly with engineering.

But why didn't you stick to your Rule #1 Get all four enlists!

[@Reign274]

I saw your reply full of cuss words get autoremoved but I’ll answer you anyway. I made that video years ago and the meta evolves. I have new videos on scythe strategy as players have gotten better and learned more. Early on you could easily win just going 4 enlists every time. Opinions change. I hope you are mature enough to know that. Just because I said something once doesn’t mean I have to believe it forever. It was good advice at the time, not so much now.

@@Reign274 I actually removed it myself because i thought i missed something.. Nevertheless it was the same comment without cussing oO. Good to learn some sfrategy though since i really enjoy playing the game:) keep it up
