I did end up reposting this before it was out there too long. Thanks for the comments pointing out a couple mistakes to add to my top 5 mistakes :(

Thanks Oscar! Thanks for the motivation!

This was so helpful. I feel like everything has been clarified. The only thing i can think of is…”would the chancellor get the oathkeeper defence die, when its held by the citizen?” As a citizen gets it when its held by the chancellor

Well done, as always! I'm curious if you've been tempted to add a strategy video for any of the games for which you've taught the rules. That always feels like the next step that we don't often see on KZfaq. Reviews...rules...playthroughs...but very few strategy videos. I wonder why that is (genuinely).

Mostly because it takes a lot of work. I’ll try to catch up to all the games 😂

I love your tutorials! Congratulations on them (used the Pax Porfiriana and Pax Pamir 2e ones)! Since you also seem to love these complex games, would you mind doing a tutorial for Pax Renassaince 2e pretty please?

@ModernTablegamer 2 жыл бұрын

Hi Marcos! I love your suggestion for Pax Ren 2e. This is honestly one that is on my list to get as there have been a couple of request for it (and I know I'll like it too ). Thanks so much for the kind words!

Thanks for that Excellent Video!!! My new best boardgame rules channel is yours!!! As a request, would be vrrat if you do a video with the Clockwork Prince, the Solo Mode for Oath, as its tricky.

Thanks for this! I have a question re: setting up the next game. If the Chancellor won the game by keeping the Oath, do the Citizens from that game start the next game as Citizens also, or will all other players start the next game as Exiles?

Great video really looking forward to this game WOULD LOVE TO HEAR YOUR OPINION ON THIS GAME ,

@ModernTablegamer 3 жыл бұрын

@BTS ARMY Thanks so much! I ended up really liking this one although some of the details of packing up from one game to another are tedious. For gameplay, I think the ebb and flow of power and temporary alliances you have to form to slide into victory give this a dimension that is deeper than just what is on the table. I also like it because it reminds me of a Pax game that married Root :)

Imperial allies do not share battle plans in their advisors (The law 5.5.3)

7:15 I think this was slightly wrong? I think the way it works is: how many warbands on the defensive side fought in total? 4, then 2 die 2 go to the player board (chancellor in this case). You did 2, one dies one goes to board, and then the other two, which effectively ends with the same result, but it's not exactly the same logic... I think.

If you have mercenaries as your advisor and you pay the one favour, where does it go at the end of your turn? Back to you or to the discord favour bank?

Question: Why did Acting Troupe have a secret on it in the 5 mistakes section? Can you use advisors in some way when they don't have a cost? Great video by the way! Always so helpful.

Everyone should know. The decks at the end are split into 12 - 15 - Remain not 10 - 15 - Remain

@activeaxon 2 жыл бұрын

That's incorrect. It's a typo in the chronicle aid sheet, but it's 10 denizens + 2 visions for 12 cards in the stack. It's printed correctly on the board and in the Law.
