Thanks so much Luke, I certainly hope it helps! This game is a beast to teach and I'm sure there's going to be a lot of new players who aren't familiar with the 1st edition who will benefit from audio/visual learning. Cheers!

Awesome video! Question, could you use Eclipse edition one hexes with Eclipse edition 2 in a game?

@TheGameLocker 2 жыл бұрын

Unsure, haven't seen the tiles compared for size. The artwork and style would clash for sure though...

@misssarason 2 жыл бұрын

@@TheGameLocker looking at the pictures that the seller has the hexes are pretty much identical!

Where do you get the turn order variant? I'm starting to feel chuffed my box doesn't have that in it.

This video included instructions for setting up everything in the "Worlds Afar Collection" box. MOST of the individual expansions inside the Worlds Afar Collection can be purchased directly from the publisher's website (en.lautapelit.fi), but a few of them were exclusive to the Kickstarter campaign (including the turn order variant). None of the Kickstarter exclusives are essential to enjoying the game AT ALL, they're just fun little extras. The turn order variant in particular is extremely easy to make yourself, you just need a way to keep track of the passing order each round. If you want more information about the Worlds Afar Collection, I have an unboxing video on my channel that shows exactly what came in the box for Kickstarter backers, as well as a tutorial video for how to play each expansion so you can decide which ones you may or may not want to purchase from the publisher. I hope this helps, cheers!

Curious if anyone has tried a TI game mat and know if it’s compatible with Eclipse. Currently the Eclipse playmat is out of stock.

@TheGameLocker 3 жыл бұрын

I seem to recall someone saying the tiles are a slightly different size...don’t quote me on that though

Most people aren't going to have a fancy game mat.

weird, you have a bunch of stuff in your box that is not in mine.. ie the turnorder thing and all those ancient blueprints...

How many of these stuff are available in retail?

@TheGameLocker 4 жыл бұрын

Hey Amin! Of the things I showed in this video, here's what's NOT in the retail version: The playmat, some of the blueprints, the turn order variant, the Minor Species expansion, and the Galactic Events expansion, the trifold reference sheets, and ship stands. You can purchase some of the extras directly from the publisher here: www.lautapelit.fi/Eclipse_-_2nd_Dawn_for_the_Galaxy_ENG

@@TheGameLocker I wish I knew the minor species didn't come in the box or else I would've purchased that with the base game.
