6:58 When you produce gold or stone, you actually collect the number of resources to the LEFT of your cube. So in your example, you wouldn't collect 3 stone, but 2 stone. This is in the first paragraph on page 8 of the rulebook. So when determining your resource production, you don't include the number beneath the cube.

@JonGetsGames 3 жыл бұрын

Huh, it does appear you are right. Under produce it says you make it equal to your number of quarries, it was easy to miss above that where it states the number is equal to the number to the left of the cube. I'll add a correction.

@bigglesy4679 3 жыл бұрын

@@JonGetsGames Yeah, it's a bit counterintuitive, especially since the other tracks (Tech and University) do include the space their cube is on.

@JonGetsGames 3 жыл бұрын

CORRECTIONS: 1. When making stone and coins you get the amount shown to the LEFT of the cube, not underneath it! 2. Technologies cannot be used the same turn they are taken, so at 35:29 Red should not be able to gain this benefit from this city action.

Technologies CAN be used the same turn they are taken, as long as they are level III and IV. Only I and II are restricted to later a turn.

You may have mentioned it elsewhere (I was skipping around through the video), but at 29:08 you mention the red player will receive 5 gold, when the cube is sitting on the 5 space. He would only get 4. You did correct this for your end game scoring example later, but not here that I saw, and I double checked to make sure I had Klingon subtitles turned on. Thank you for the videos!

Once again you’ve done a great play through! I’m with the rest that the art in this game is overwhelming!! But nonetheless I’m really drawn to this game-maybe it’s the point salad aspect. I’ve ordered it and excited to bring it to the table once it arrives! Just wanted to give you a pat on the back and say: Keep up the great work Jon. Thank you for taking your time out to create these great videos and for putting much effort, care and detailed work into them.👍🏼👏🏼

Awesome playtrough. Played this yesterday and just came to check if I had made any goofs since at first it seems a lot to do, but actually, it flows rather easier then expected. Great game 🙂

@StevenStJohn-kj9eb 3 жыл бұрын

That's a lot of great mechanisms all in one package. Has shades of Trajan, with the multiple mini games, an action selection mechanism a little reminiscent of Kraftwagen, an icon matching spatial puzzle like Tawantinsuyu, and some really beautiful components. Cool stuff.

I love this game more and more with every gameplay 💜 thanks for the video! 😊 a little note to 35:30 - level 1 and 2 technologies cannot be used on the turn in which you take them, so even if you build the tile with the red cathedral icon, you wouldn't be able to get the bonus from the technology taken on that turn. Subscribed 👍🏻

At 25:45 you say we can build on any empty yellow space, and you point to and briefly set a tile on yellow spaces next to a plaza site that has no plaza tile on it. There's a thread on BGG debating this: can you build on spaces next to plazas without tiles on them (in the 1-3 player game). It's inconclusive and the designer or publisher never chime in. I agree with you, I think the English rulebook is clear: you can build on any empty yellow space. Have you heard a clarification?

@JonGetsGames 7 ай бұрын

I haven't heard a clarification, I didn't realize this point was up for debate. That's a shame.

@kvici Жыл бұрын

is there a way to lower the tracker for quarry and mine in the game? if not, and the players start at no.3, then previous boxes and places for cubes are redundant. Also, in some types of actions, effects activate on the spot of the cube, and for others, the effects are to the left of it. Both small oversights could have been cleared up from the design standpoint. But anyway, the game is Czech, and these folks are not known for making simple things. As long as they work. Greetings from Czechs' little brothers' country.

at 25:16 and 25:37 you're rewinding and doing the action again, only a little editing error

Got an idea! I am okay with "not full" playthroughs, but I am still very curious about final scores. As you said, you are trying to follow different strategies by different players, so to calculate scores and to conclude will be very useful, innit?)

@JonGetsGames 3 жыл бұрын

This would require me to play through the rest of the game even with the camera off, and unfortunately I just don't think the benefit is worth time that'd take.

I couldn't finish watching this. You did a great job, Jon, but this game is a mess. To be honest I think my impression is heavily coloured by years of disappointment with board games. Usually they have been getting much better in the art department (this game is an exception, the art is terribly obfuscating), and there has definitely been major improvements in components (this game is a decent example), but mechanics have not improved over that time. Often those mechanics are just plain boring (due to bad design or lack of innovation), or they are complex/tedious/disjointed (due to poor/limited play testing, often in-house). Watching a game played is still my favourite way to learn it; I look forward to the day I watch a playthrough that entices me back.
