I have to say Becca, your presentation on learning/teaching games has just gone from strength to strength. This channel has become one of my go-to places for learning about a game's rules before playing it.

Magnificent tutorial Becca. I’ve had this game for a few weeks and thought I had all the rules down, but you presented a couple I’d missed! You rock!

Pretty sure the hero bonus would have been a lantern, not a horseshoe. 9:55

Is this the newest version of the rulebook? In my version the prestige markers are placed on the zero spot instead of the 2 spot during Setup. Also every player gets two deed cards and chooses one…

@bcmaledragon Жыл бұрын

@Brezel Yes. The designer revised the rules because how are you going to look at the top 3 Hero cards at the Inn if you don't want any of the 4 displayed Heros because you have to pay 1 Prestige in order to look. The deeds were also revised as well(Look at the JonGetsGames playthough).

Not sure if this is a browser issue or not (Safari) but the close ups (like in 7:42) look out of focus compared to the wide shots...

Yeah that was an issue on my end that I wasn't able to fully solve (editing)... apologies.. I hope it's not too much of a distraction..

at 10:06 Becca describes a rule and option, Where you can pay 1 prestige to draw and look at the top three heroes on the deck, then you have a choice of 7 heroes to sell goods to....Is that a valid option, I've never heard of that. Is that in the rulebook? Option 1 prestige for 3 more heroes choices??

@hikarukaze 2 жыл бұрын

The Designer clarify this is an added rule outside of the rulebook, will be posted the revised rulebook later in BGG

@Brezel85 2 жыл бұрын

Minor Error: While explaining how to sell goods to a hero in the Ringway Inn you pointed out the wrong symbol for the received bonus. It is the big symbol beneath the goods, in your example a lantern. The symbol you highlighted is just for colorblind people to keep the different hero types apart…

Why does the game board have 6 interlocking tiles instead of just one big board?

Perhaps so they can be swapped out for alternate versions?

The rules are a little hard to teach. But after playing one or two turns things start to get clear. But this is definitely a game you have to play 2-3 times until you get a decent strategy. But I don‘t think this is a bad thing. We like it pretty much…
