I am so glad you did this! Memoir 44 is one of my favorite games. "Watch it Played" is a tremendous resource for both old and new gamers alike. So many great games get overlooked in the race to get the new 'hotness'. I like new stuff too, but "Power Grid", "Catan", "Stone Age", "Kingsburg", "Castles of Burgundy", "Lost Cities", "Lewis and Clark", "Puerto Rico", and many many more - are classics that deserve to be discovered all over again. Well done Rodney - keep up the fantastic work! - On a side note, when I want to introduce a new game to my wife she wants to know if there is a Watch it Played video first. She wants Rodney to teach her instead of me! Should I be worried??

Hey man you are not alone. Whenever I try to show my wife some tutorial videos on a board game I want to purchase to play with her, she will ask is there a video with Watch It Played out for this game? If not I'm not watching it (and there goes my chances of getting the game). Sigh Rodney you are not making this easy for some of us.

I'm ok with Dice as singular now as I know language evolves. I am not ok with dices as plural. I'm pretty sure this is confusion coming form non-english speakers who see dice being used singular so they apply the plural and make it dices. I'm seeing this all over the place.

I normally don't like war games, but Memoir'44 is the exception. Played this several times with Overlord rules (8 players) and it has always been a blast. It's a game that is easy to learn and has a great mix of planning and tactics without getting bogged down in tons of rules and minutiae (looking at you there Advanced Squad leader).

Late to the game on this but great video with high production values and exceptional clarity. I've been on the fence about Memoir '44 for ages, the main thing that puts me off being the comments I've about some of the scenarios being heavily weighted in favour of one side, by as much as 70/30. On the one hand, many battles were and on the other hand, I guess both players, unless they accept the unfair nature of war, want an equal chance of winning. Tough call LOL. I recall the Flight Plan not being highly thought of at first? Maybe New Flight Plan is better?
@WatchItPlayed
@WatchItPlayed Жыл бұрын
For people who have concerns about scenario balance, the game recommends (I might even say this in the video), that you can play the scenario twice and switch sides for the matches, with players combing their scores from both games

Thanks for your videos, as always they are very useful. Here in Italy it was not possible to find a copy of Memoir '44 for several years until this year. I bought it and would like to buy some expansions too. However, I have doubts about the latter, given that they are not easy to find (I will search among the various flea markets or some foreign site), which one should I focus on first? For example, regarding the maps, if I purchase the Breakthrough expansion, do I also have to purchase the winter/desert or is it already included? Thanks again for the help. Chiara

Sorry if this seems like a dumb question, but new guy here. When it comes to bunkers, sandbags, and retreat flags - when an attacker rolls a flag (which the first is ignored) does a flag rolled in an attack on a subsequent turn (not by another unit adjacent to the bunker/sandbag, but after the other player/team attacks) count as the “second” flag and thus result in a retreat, or do both flags have to be rolled in the same turn to get a unit to retreat? wasn’t sure if I had to keep track throughout the game of how many “first flags” were ignored or if the counter resets with each turn. Hope this all made sense!

I just purchased Memoir '44 for the first time, with the four main expansion packs and the Breakthrough Kit. The Winter Wars pack suggests that the Winter/Desert Map be purchased first. However, the Breakthrough Kit also comes with four terrain maps including a Winter/ Desert map. Is there a difference in content or scenarios by purchasing the Winter/ Desert Board by itself versus the Breakthrough Kit which already includes the map? Check it Out! Answer are appreciated. Ciao!!!

WOW! Memoir '44. Thanks for the rules video Rodney. How long ago was it that you mentioned on your channel that a future game to be featured would be Memoir '44? Might have been year 1 or 2. I played this game at Capital Game Expo in Ottawa a few years ago (unfortunately the expo is now defunct). I loved the game so I bought my own copy, but I have yet to get my copy to the table.

I only have one question left in my mind. So artillery that starts in a bunker can't move out from it, but if it has to retreat does it move out from it or loses a unit? I know in retreat obstacles are ignored but I'm not sure about this specific situation.
@WatchItPlayed
@WatchItPlayed 3 жыл бұрын
Did a little digging and found this! Q. For Artillery in bunkers, flags are treated as a hit. Does Artillery in a bunker still ignore the first flag? A. Yes. Basically an Artillery unit in a bunker may not retreat. Therefore it must lose one figure for each retreat flag that cannot be completed. But like all other units in a bunker hex, it may ignore the first flag rolled against it. In other words, it takes two flags to force it to retreat and take one hit, and three flags to make two hits.

Rodney I am not criticizing but why 44 now? Just curious. I loved the video and with a huge collection of games its a great refresher so when I want to play I can watch and go. My only problem with DOW is some expansions go out of print and if you are pardon the pun late to the game they go for huge prices if you want them.

This is a game I had announced I would cover on the channel (several years ago), but then never got it fit into the schedule. They just released a new expansion, so this seemed like a good time to revisit this game. That said, I've been sprinkling in older titles on the channel for awhile now. I like new games, but I'm also a fan of creating videos for games that are "new" to people who are just entering the hobby.

If there is sandbags on a city are both attack modifiers added? Because a city is -2 to tanks and sandbags are -1. If that’s the case then tank can’t attack. Me and my brother were confused. And on a second note as a fellow Canadian how disappointed where you to find out no Juno beach map? 🇨🇦👍
