This is a MUCH cleaner explanation of rules than the video Awaken Realms have put out recently. Well done! When AR were talking about rule changes, I started to have doubts. But your explanation put me at ease, it looks good. ... I just need to figure out how to manage playing this game with my team of 5, even if usually we'll be 3 or 4.

Agree, tho I can’t imagine how long this game would take with 4 players! These 3 rounds took almost an hour. How many rounds in a typical game, or how long does it take?

Hi, thank you for this video! Explaining the rules and this gameplay part, it was great! Cost you a lot of work, but it was worth it:) I have to admit that this choosing a body parts while you shooting to enemies sounds quite interesting, same as an attention tokens and whole mechanic around them.

Nice work! Super helpful. Definitely better than the last video by AR. Still a lot going on tho, and as such it is mildly concerning that an expert is still making some rule mistakes. But I appreciate the transparency. 💯 agree with the last critique about a lot of rules to remember!

Hello thanks for the video 🙏 you already mentioned but i wonder how many different cards in the attention , wound and random event decks? Are they repetitive too much. I am a bit worried about it? If its allright to share the informatiın.

Zaku, what is the bottom left area of the PDA for? It looks very strange and the assymetry of the PDA seems odd, as i dont know what this area is for. The gameplay looks brilliant and sleek, very keen and excited to have the game arrive! I thino Awaken Realms have done very well on this

First, thanks a lot for the video! Second, questions :) 42:12 You use a free action to use "Fast Shot", but using a "Lead stalker" token was also a free action. So the player is not limited in 1 free action per turn, there are infinite of those? 1:03:50 Does Focus token make all reloads as free actions without being expended, or is the token lost when used for a free reload? Now I have a question about a mechanics that wasn't shown in this video, but want to clarify the terminology first, to avoid misunderstanding. Each round each Stalker has 2 turns, each turn has 2 base actions and free actions. After a Stalker ends a turn, i.e. after 2 base actions, does it mean (as stated on PDA after the arrow moves down to the bottom) all the enemies with the LoS attack him/her immediately, before the next Stalker action? And if the 2nd Stalker ends his turn within the LoS of the same enemy who just attacked the 1st Stalker at the end of 2nd Stalker turn, will the enemy shoot 2nd Stalker now as well? That might result that within one round an enemy can make 4x2 + 1 = 9 attacks, if 4 players are playing (each player end the turn within LoS of the enemy twice plus the enemy action). Is it correct?
@ZakuBoardgames
@ZakuBoardgames 2 ай бұрын
For my current knowledge about rules: Yes, U can make unlimited free actions. You don't discard focus with free reload action. After each Stalker turn ( two standard actions), all enemies with LoS to this Stalker are reacting by attacking this Stalker. So yes, If 4 Stalkers will end both turns could trigger 8 attacks + enemy activation.

Unless the cards fit perfectly into the sleeves i am sure that sleeved character and artifact cards will not fit into the slots of the character overlay and it will be more of a nuisance to use. The sleeves would need to be tighter than the ones from etherfields to fit in there. That is a bit of a bummer because i like the general look of the overlay.
@ZakuBoardgames
@ZakuBoardgames 2 ай бұрын
In my prototype copy, there is few mm spare space, so i think sleeved Stalker cards could fit in.

They have to fit when used together with the sleeves sold together with the game as addon. These sleeves are very tight according to reports from Nemesis where they had the same type of sleeves i believe. If you buy other sleeves i can imagine they wont fit

Looks good! Altough im not sure about the amount of free actions.. am i reading it correctly that with events and such, a stalker could shoot 7-8 times in a round? :0
@ZakuBoardgames
@ZakuBoardgames 2 ай бұрын
Thanks! In my gameplay, i was lucky to have additional action from event, so in theory i could make maximum 4 shots in one activation (2 from actions, 1 from action event, 1 from Stalker Ability). Next activation could be 2 shots and possibly 1 free, so 7 shots in total on whole round, but it is only in theory - I think my ammo capasity can't let this happen :)

Hi, first of all thank you for the video. I've got a question: 43:49 you move with PALKAN 3 spaces away from the red token. why is it not following you? when you move and got an yellow token you place it on the last spot moved on... so is this correct that a red token is not moved to your place after moving? Thank you. Best Chris

Question: at around 18:14, the card tells you to move the Stalker in the direction of the nearest room. The nearest room is defined by what exactly? Closest distance, even through walls or windows, or closest in terms of entry point, like a door? If so, how come does the stalker go to that specific (left) room? There doesn't seem to be a door, just a window. In which case, he should be moving towards the right, then go down into the other room and see you. Am I correct? Was it a mistake or something I misunderstood? Or can bandits also enter rooms by windows?
