Heroes of Might & Magic III: The Board Game ▸ Shelfside Plays w/Battlefield Expansion

[@PaulMB40]

I just spelt out "why didn't I back this", in tears. Love the reality Tv style. Not being facetious, the revealing of strategies etc. enhanced the viewing experience.

[@mateuszniedziela5484]

The new kick starter campaign starts today :)

[@PaulMB40]

​@@mateuszniedziela5484 😮 *picks up tears* Thank you, mate!

[@dominikvachl8439]

@@PaulMB40 it is Gamefound campaign and has quite nice pledges! The new expansions add water tiles, portals and underground for the base game without the battlefield expansion

[@LilTiJM]

Loved the video ! Will you make a review of this game ? I think it would help a lot of people on the current kickstarter.

[@Shelfside]

No plan for it yet! -Ashton

[@notjefflee]

Good video! I appreciate that you didn't shy away from showing the frustrating elements of the game. Playthrough felt genuine.

[@Edu-qv4lq]

Seeing so many rules mistakes makes me feel better about when I play games at home and make a ton of rules mistakes too. Great video, game looks fun.

[@Shelfside]

haha, luckily I had the designers help me before releasing the vid! Even after 2-3 practice games stuff comes through -Ashton

[@hotdiggity45]

Loved the format of the video!

[@ares106]

HOMM3 has an amazing sound track if you want to use that in the next video instead of AOE2

[@MabusCRO88]

I agree, sounds and music in the pc game are one of the best in the gaming industry

[@VampguyN85]

It's a fun game. I've only played it once so far, but it brings back all the video game Nostalgia from my childhood. And second comment! (Technically 3rd after Ashton's reply lol)

[@Shelfside]

haha,congrats on 2nd! -Ashton

[@iamvigant]

2:34 Sh-she's... good at... WHAT?!

[@Shelfside]

buffing crusaders with her card! -Ashton

[@arcaderunner2188]

Why are the cards so curled up? Reminds me of MtG foils... ugh.

[@lionheartxiv]

I came to ask the same question.

[@MabusCRO88]

Great video! It was fun even thought you messed a lot of rules :D I would recommend that you try the PC game it's really fun. The best version of the game is to get horn of the abyss expansion. There is online multiplayer with simultanious turns, also there are 2k players online daily. Besides that campaings are really fun and there are great single scenarios since game features map editor and communitiy makes wonderful maps e.g the devil is in the details map

[@Bojoganstein]

Many rule mistakes but nonetheless a enjoyable video. Adam would have won if the rules were tight xD Waiting for the review! (When you get to it ofc) Cheers and keep it up!

[@SirBilliamRPG]

Love these videos! Keep em coming!

[@Shelfside]

Cheers man! Much more coming :D -Ashton

[@ihugyoucuziloveyou]

In this mode you dont have to flip the pack monster cards when their health is depleted?

[@StevanSeagal]

some of the components look warped

[@BrotherMingGames]

phineas and ferb reference!

[@Tombonzo]

Good stuff again, guys!

[@Shelfside]

Thank you! -Ashton

[@Janisurai]

Cool video

[@dominikvachl8439]

I get that the rule book is not the greates but guys...the game is not that hard to mess up so much stuff xd

[@Marky_X]

Watching this, my first thought is "just go play the video game" A good attempt nonetheless

[@tomsule]

There should be a map, where you can move your hero around. Why did you use just cards? Am I missing something?

[@yamahkogribbis6212]

At just past the 18 minute mark, they move to the 2nd half of the game where they place obstacles & units.

[@tomsule]

​@@yamahkogribbis6212A world map, not a battle map. I played the game on normal board.

[@yamahkogribbis6212]

@@tomsule i believe at the beginning they mentioned that this version is different than the standard version, insofar as they skip the world phase altogether (to streamline the game to focus more on the combat).

[@yamahkogribbis6212]

@@tomsule what was your experience with the game? I'm very interested in it but have not tried it.

[@tomsule]

@@yamahkogribbis6212 As a veteran of all Homam from very first game, it was very familiar. I bought Homam 3 on GoG to played it again after I played the boardgame:) About the boardgame - I hate all the plastic there, never used it for playing, it has sadly no purpose than justife a price. You needs to see stats from creature cards. Rules are okay, mechanics okay. If the game wasnt such a huge money grab and was focused more at the game, was smaller and with some smart mechanic, it would be actualy nice. In this shape it is for hardcore fans, that dont have other games..

[@CarbonBallas]

First!!

[@Shelfside]

hahah woot woot! -Ashton

[@TheControlBlue]

Your intern needs to up his energy levels and to get some sharpness in his attitude. He sounds half awake, this makes for a less enjoyable video.

[@Shelfside]

the flogging shall continue until morale improves! /s Yeah I think he was a bit tired :) -Ashton

[@TheControlBlue]

@@Shelfside but yeah, as someone else in the comments said, the reality TV format for a game really works! Hope you guys will have more HOMM3 battles on camera!
