Rules to play solo. Using overlord. * Be aggressive when using overlord. Move to confront. Take risks. Spend gems to defend units. * Make activations as cheap as possible. * If many heroes are in a zone, use D6 dice and assign numbers to heroes to select a target. Dice roll will tell you what hero to target. * If a hero has no gems to spend overlord will not target the hero. * Dead units cannot be activated and moved to the end of the river This rule stops if the first two elements in the river are dead.

A quick question: Isn't there a reroll symbol on the attack dice of the Pict hunters you used in the example overlord turn? Wouldn't that mean they're allowed to reroll anyway? Or does it just mean that the Overlord can spend gems to make them reroll those dice?

At first: great video. Some good clarifications. Though I´m not sure if the free movement action of heros must be the first MOVEMENT action (before any movement action triggered by crystals) or the first ANY action. Playing yesterday there were two questions: 1) When the event tile is triggered, do I remove it form the river or do I put it back to later reactivate it? 2) Jumping: how many crystals does it take? Skill says 2. But clarification skill says one for each crossed border. Do the Heros pay 2 or one for each border or both?
@LearntoPlayGames
@LearntoPlayGames 7 жыл бұрын
Thanks for watching and for the feedback. So I checked the rules again as the movement thing has given me fits and they do a better job in the revised rules so you can do other actions during your turn but the first time you move is when the free points are added so after that if you do another action and you have any remaining move points they are lost. with your first question the event tile will be moved to the end of the river just like any other tile unless the scenario stats otherwise but normally it will just move to the last spot. for the jump question I went through the rule book and it does not talk about jumping but the Leap action states for each boarder you cross it is one move point so if you have already used your free movement than it would be one crystal per boarder. If you are talking about climbing as in the boulder in the first scenario than you would follow the scenario rules and it says 2 move pts so again if you are out of your free movement pts it would cost 2 crystals. If this doesn't answer your question let me know and I will look into it further and see if I can get a better answer for you. Thanks

55:40 The gem spending to pick an unit type to activate seems smart, but also kinda weird? Here you spend 3 gems to activate the Hyenas, but you could also first activate the unit in the 1 gem position, then the new unit in that position, and then activate the hyenas for 1. The end result is you still spend 3 gems, but you also got to activate 2 extra unit types. Seems the only reason to skip units is if you want to group up particular types next to each other. or am I missing something? EDIT: Watched it again, they can activate up to 2 tiles, which makes sense then.

Question sir; some heroes have a "leap" ability. After you resolve a dice roll specifically for the leap ability and it fails. Do you pay 1 gem to reroll the dice? Or would you have to add gems to your movement action space to allow you enough movement points to roll again? My apologies if this question was worded poorly.

Thanks for watching and good question. So the heroes will start the turn and the overlord will be able to spend gems to help with re-rolls and defense as normal so by the time it becomes to overlord's turn he may have more than the three gems in his spent pile plus it will limit him a little as there are three gem used already. hope this helps, let me know your thoughts and if this makes sense.

From revise rulebook: "At the start of the Action phase, an aggressive hero gains a number of movement points equal to their base movement value. These movement points are free; they do not require the hero to assign gems to the Move action. As a result, the first movement points a character spends are the movement points gained thanks to their base movement value. Each turn, when a hero stops moving to perform an action other than a Move, the hero loses all of their remaining movement points. However, the hero can still perform a Move action to gain movement points that turn. " So, yes, basic movement points are free if not interrupted. Thanks for great tutorial, though.

Thanks good catch, when I wrote the script for this originally I was using to base rule book which was very unclear on this so I when with the side of caution. I did go back and run through the revised rule book and missed this. I will try to find a way to fix this in the video. Thanks for correcting me I always want my videos to be as accurate as possible.

Which game do you prefer between Conan and The Others 7 Sins?
@LearntoPlayGames
@LearntoPlayGames 7 жыл бұрын
That is a hard question, as I really enjoy both of them. So I would say it depends on what you are looking for. Conan has a great system of how it balances the players actions by having them spend gems so both the players and overlord have to make smart decisions. Conan also has a higher killing factor as the players are going to smash a lot of enemies. With the Others I liked the way the sins player had so many choices and how he really didn't have to hold back. I also really liked the customization as you could add additional content and use it to add more variety to game. Which in my opinion was one of the biggest issues with Conan as I was a kickstarter backer and got a lot of the extra content which is completely useless till they create scenarios for the characters and monsters as there is no system in place that allows you to use different heroes or monsters in the scenarios that are out now. I hope that helps I know I didn't pick one over the other but I like both games equally and have played both recently.

Extra content was not "completely useless" ... I replaced snake with dragon in first mission and took some hyenas out placing sabertooth tiger... It's just finding the balance after that ;)

Hindrance - you that wrong. With the updated revised rulebook, if the number of the enemies in the same area as the hero/ heroes is EQUAL or higher than the number of the heroes, the hero is hindered.

Conan has a problem. The manuals included in the box are incomplete, which makes the game unplayable. If you get the PDFs of the corrected manuals (the website is currently down) they refer to Valeria, a kickstarter exclusive. If you buy the sourcebook, because you want to replace Valeria (which is a kicktarter exclusive) in a way that the game stays balanced, you will find that their formula for balance is "aim for fun" and "trial and error" which is not exactly the best. So the box is terribly incomplete. I managed to download the manuals, and I made a printable card for Valeria for myself. But others will not be able to feel pleased with an incomplete box.

I agree and is one of the biggest problems with this game. I was really disappointed they did not have a better system in place to change characters and enemies in each scenario.

@@LearntoPlayGames If you buy the sourcebook, which I did, you would look for rules to create a scenario. You would imagine something like how to calculate "battle value" to balance the game. But no. It says "aim for fun" and "trial and error", so they were so lazy that they could not even figure out a way to calculate a rating for balance. And creating scenarios was a topic of the book. It is so lame. This is what discouraged me to continue buying anything else for that game. It is as if they have done everything possible to annoy players and make the game to fail.

Learn to Play Games for starters someone said the Lord can only use his defense action once an attack but I couldn't find that in the book. 2) when minions are respawned can they also attack if enough gems...3) in the khitai tower can the minions move down a level and attack or do they have to wait till the heros come upstairs to activate that level

And I didn't congratulate you on the format of the video which is objectively and in all actuality great. Instead I just nitpicked on a grammatical error. I really feel bad and I'm really sorry... Keep up the good work!

I was not offended and Thanks for taking the time write this followup. I do look at all my comments and try to learn from them and if it is something that I can fix to make my videos more enjoyable or understanding I will. I have gotten some great constructive comments in my time here. It is easy to fall into these habits, and having my audience sit and watch a video that is an hour long is a lot to ask. So thanks for your first comment and for your followup and for taking the time to watch my videos.

In USA that’s correct. In UK it’s both Dice, those heavy in like 40k and other Brit minis games say “dice” for both.
