He must be ASMR in person

Cheers mate!

Ave Caesar is back in print from Dice tree games

@@BoardGameBollocks Thanks. They have the game listed on their site but not in their shop. I will email them and see where I can buy it. Thanks again and keep up the good work.

I got a copy in the UK but it looks like it was the only one in the country.

👍🏻

New reprint of Ave Caesar is in the post…review/comparison incoming

Maybe you could look at Race Formula 90, there was a kickstarter not so long ago to make the 2nd edition and is now on preorder

@@Ankerplaysyes I have heard positive views of this, but I have Formula One, Formula De, Speed Circuit, Championship Motor Racing, Formel Fun and Heat so I shouldn’t need yet another. (On reflection you were probably addressing our host, rather than me. Apologies.)

I hate cheap/penny sleeves. Waste of money

The sleeves I used werent cheap, but the more expensive ones would’ve added £20 to the game. Something I’m not prepared to do.

@@BoardGameBollocks I understood, I tend to buy premium sleeves in bulk. And I definitely only sleeve certain gamesb

Will take a gander. Cheers

@@BoardGameBollocks the channel I saw it on was Discriminating Gamer, he does top content like yourself.

Had to be done. The cards would get destroyed with all the shuffling etc

No. Who told you that? 😂😳

Reddit 😄 The thinking was that they are both racing focused deckbuilders and that El Dorado had more player interaction due to blocking whereas Heat was simply limited to slipstreaming as interaction.

Can’t see it myself…🤷‍♂️

Such an odd description of your problem. Sounds like the game has a terminal illness to which there is no cure, and so it's not worth the money. Whereas I've seen literally 3 videos of it and I can explain every rule.

@@milanstevic8424 Yeah I agree. I thought I had understood the rules beforehand but then in practice trying to coach five other people through a couple of games was more painful than I had anticipated.

​@@superspecky4eyes Got ya. Well, some games don't click with some groups, I'll give you that. But in game's defense, it really doesn't do anything too weird or special, just a simple phase based card game. When teaching I would focus on explaining what the speed value is and how it interacts with the speed limit. And then saying that slipstreaming lunges forward by 2 spaces but doesn't really modify the speed value (unlike boosting). The speed limit itself is just a phase trigger, if crossed. Regarding the movement, the car is placed closer to the racing line when possible, and there is no blocking (unless the destination is fully occupied). People also seem to have issues with forgetting the starting space of the car when moving, but that's a non-issue if people would use fingers to count spaces (or consider numbers written along the track) instead of doing 1-2-3 with the car. And the rest of it is pretty relaxed (from what I've seen), i.e. when there are special symbols on the cards, these can be resolved at any time, making it very flexible when it comes to heat management.

@@milanstevic8424 The main thing that seemed to trip people up was when in their turn should they be using "cool down". For most it seemed intuitive to cool down as soon as they select a gear, others felt it was at the end of the round. When in fact you cool down after playing cards, making your initial movement but before boosting or resolving a corner/slipstreaming.

@@superspecky4eyes Yes, but this is completely contrary to what the rules specify. Instead of playing the game by the "feels", you should encourage the group to play by the rules. And you are expected to know the rules by heart if you're the one introducing the game. Don't want to sound condescending but all board games work like this, and this rule is especially simple. In this case it's described under the 5th phase of the players turn, under 5. React: "In this step you get to activate symbols you have access to in ANY order you want. In general you have access to symbols from your current gear or thanks to Adrenaline, but in the Garage Module you can also access symbols from cards played. The symbols you gain access to in the core game are Cooldown & Boost." This is where the symbols for Cooldown and Boost are then explained in more detail. The way the rule is worded also explains away the situation where you need to pay for the card with Heat, but you don't have enough Heat in your engine. Well, if you can activate the symbols in any order, this means you can cool down (if you have any Heat in your hand) before you're ready to pay for the card. I'll remind you that I haven't even played the game, but the rules are very slim and publicly available, and this is explained on page 5 (out of 7).

This is a family channel

There’s two double sided boards in the box too

@@BoardGameBollocks very much enjoyed the quality vid though. Soz. Shoulda made that clearer instead of just bitching like a millenial

I hope not

Say wha?

F1 would have been better, but I guess they were continuing the Flamme Rougue thing.

Disagree, the retro theme makes it more timeless. If it was styled to a "modern" F1 it would look out of date within a few seasons once the cars/paint schemes/sponsors change.

It looks out of date now so I’m not sure of your logic here…

@@BoardGameBollocks Kind of like how you get so far out from a fashion it becomes a timeless style but something from a few years ago looks naff already. 🤷🏼‍♂️ Plus maybe with the retro style they chose they can sidestep having to cater to regional differences in motor racing around the world.

@superspecky4eyes flares have always been shit

Are you a dick? How many keyboards have you broken trolling?

@@BoardGameBollocks seriously man you seem the evil person in the films.

@@BoardGameBollocks anyway Can I rent you to scare people?

Nah..I’m just evil

New version is already out. I have it here.

@@BoardGameBollocks Those of us in the USA are being made to wait. Soon ...

@@BoardGameBollocks And 1 week later ... 😂
