Good game, we just got it recently. One correction though, at 7:20 you say that you cannot spend a cube in the turn you get it. But in the rules, "As long as an ability can be used after gaining rewards for the dice roll, you may use that ability the same turn it becomes fully charged."

@chaosinthechasm2 жыл бұрын
I just read the rules and played my first game (solo). You are correct. In addition to the rulebook quote you mention, on pages 12 and 13 the rules state that turn phase 4 is "gain rewards", which is followed by phase 5 "abilities may be triggered", followed by phase 6 "buy a card", and then followed by phase 7 "charge abilities may be triggered". So, it's totally permitted to trigger abilities after rolling and gaining rewards. However, the dice+arrow type card used in the timestamped example above doesn't allow a player to both allocate one or both dice to this sector to gain charge for the card as a reward, and then reallocate both dice and trigger this ability. Dice are only allowed to be allocated once per turn - in turn phase 3 "allocate dice".
@jefff.20522 жыл бұрын
@@chaosinthechasm You are correct in that that you can't allocate the dice twice. That point should have been made separately.Just saying you can't use the charge in the same turn without pointing out that you can if you otherwise have the ability to take the action definitely sounds to the person you're teaching like you just can't do it at all.

First heard this game from ProZD then watched Rahdo’s playthrough and thoughts of it then now I’m watching this channel’s 3 years-ago-released video and I’m really impressed by this presentation. Now I’m really convinced. Luckily I found a restock from my place! Can’t believe how underrated this game is but is actually kind of hard to find (then I guess it’s pretty popular). I’m considering the Emergence of Shy Pluto expansion in the future. Thanks for sealing the deal for me to buy this game. Now the hard part: waiting for its arrival 😂.

I really hate the one card that makes everyone lose points. It's insanely powerful as it nets you points and an extra buy on a commonly-rolled number. But, more importantly, it drastically slows down an otherwise fast and fun game. I have removed it from my copy and don't regret doing so.

I'm guessing there might be something in the rules that prevents this, but it looked like there was a possible infinite loop/instant win possible if somebody managed to get both of the starting cards that Mike and Lincoln ended up with: One was on the 12 and gave 3 Victory Points and activated the 11, the other was on the 11 and activated either the 10 or 11. If you had both of those, all you would need to do is roll an 11 or 12, and then they would just activate each other in a continuous loop, until that person got past the 40 or whatever they decided to take to win.
@LiiChinHo5 жыл бұрын

@codym63763 жыл бұрын
You can only activate each reward once per dice allocation. So if you allocate the dice together then it only happens once total. However, if you roll doubles you could activate that numbers reward twice, but each reward can only happen once per dice (so twice) but still not an infinite loop.

@codym63763 жыл бұрын
The squares that you place charge cubes on are color coded. When it is blue you charge it on your turn. When it is red you charge it on someone else’s turn. The ability may be a different color than the charging color. If the ability is blue you can only use it on your turn, regardless of what color square charged the ability. If the ability is green in color you can use it on anyone’s turn.

There is one game I was thinking off when you get to do stuff on somebody elses turn: Machi Koro - great little game too. But this looks nice, charming and colorful. Ohhh.... now I know what Mike meant with "fixing some issues" - yes, I have to admit, that you can build up quite an engine for money in Machi Koro - that's true. Thanks for showing us this game - great playthrough Edit in Jan2019: thanx to amazon I could get this cool game shipped from the US to Germany and tuck it under the Christmas Tree. Played it quite a bit now and I haven‘t won yet. I can never catch up with the leader. Maybe I have to figure out my engine but it is luck if you get the right cards (with VP on it) 😉

@falkjar69694 жыл бұрын
It depends on the card. Some cards have multiple squares that are linked together. In this case, you need all of the linked squares "charged" to be able to use it. Other cards may have multiple squares but are not linked. In this case, you can hold multiple charges, but only need one square to be able to use it. Pages 20-27 of the rule book go into detail on the abilities.

IMO Machi Koro is notorious for being a runaway engine game. In many cases, you can pretty much figure out who is going to win (based on which cards you're using) within 5 or 6 rounds and it's often impossible to catch up if you fall behind. One of the things that Space Base does better is that you lose all your income when you buy any card. This keeps a much more level playing field. In contrast, in Machi Koro you can buy low priced cards that feed your engine while still saving dollars for cards with larger effects.
