You've Been Playing That Wrong! Episode 7: Unresolved Combat And the 6th Star (Scythe board game)

The seventh entry in a series of videos that clarify oft-misunderstood rules in the board game Scythe. This episode covers what happens after someone earns their 6th star prior to resolving all of the combats on the board.

I'm so happy to have found this example - it didn't happen to us yet, but somehow I'm sure it will soon (we started with Fenris and who knows what might happen :D).

[@michaelkelmonroe7547]

Oooh, interesting scenario! Do you construct the whole board just for each video / scenario? If so, it's kinda perfect (and looks like a lot of work). Thanks!!!

[@StevenStJohn-kj9eb]

Thanks for commenting! Yes, I pretty much just put out something plausible. In some videos actually I wish I'd put more planning into that, but in most it came out fine. Cheers.

Can you send in 2 mechs into the same combat?

[@StevenStJohn-kj9eb]

Yes. Combat does not occur until all of your moves are completed. So if you have the ability to move 2 units, you can move one into a combat and then the other into the same combat.

[@Juankazon]

And also (correct me if I am wrong) by doing this, you now are able to use two combat cards for that battle (one for each mech in combat)

[@SquevilSqueak]

@@Juankazon yeah that is correct

[@StevenStJohn-kj9eb]

@@Juankazon yes

[@timjones990]

@@StevenStJohn-kj9eb is that 2 combat cards on one dial to resolve both your mechs combat in one battle? or do you resolve the two mechs attacks separately assuming that you lost the first combat? I think that question makes sense.
