The Castles of Burgundy: Special Edition | Board Game Solo Tutorial and Playthrough

Рет қаралды 22,998

Күн бұрын

The classic board game The Castles of Burgundy has a new beautiful and deluxe Special Edition by ‪@awakenrealms‬ that includes a new solo mode! I will teach you the rules as I play, as always. And if you would like to support the channel, you can give me a nice tip here: ko-fi.com/totallytabled.
Rules Clarification: When I say, "top to bottom, left to right," what I meant is you should start at the top left, move all the way to the right and then move down a row, like reading a book in English. Sorry for any confusion.

Hey Shaggi, you've easily become my go to channel when it comes down to solo boardgaming. Crisp quality, super clear rules explanations on the fly. Love it!

Wow, thanks so much for the kind words, Stephen! I really appreciate that. I'm glad my style works for you. Thank you for your support and I hope you continue to enjoy the channel.

Thank you! Have had this on the shelf since it arrived feeling a little threatened by the amount of content and game modes within, but you've made it look accessible to get into. Will definitely give it a shot this weekend after seing this! Can't wait!!

I'm loving this game. This Special Edition is my first time playing but I can see why it has such a great reputation. The new solo mode feels great and I finally won a game this morning with 185 points.

@TotallyTabled Жыл бұрын

Congrats on the win, Don! I completely agree about the solo mode. I've loved this game for a long time as a 2-player game, but this solo mode is good enough that it will hit the table often when I'm by myself, which is such a great boon. Thank you for watching my video!

Great job. I agree that the Special Edition without acrylic is fine; there are no redundant pieces, and everything fits properly in the inserts. I will back the reprint.

@TotallyTabled 3 ай бұрын

It's a great game regardless of the edition or components. The Special Edition is nice for people who love the game and want a "forever version" to play for the long term. But picking up a cheap Alea printing is an amazing value. I'm keeping mine for nostalgic reasons. I just love seeing the game getting the love it deserves. I only wish the new solo mode was available for all editions. Thanks so much for checking out the video!

I really hope it helps you get the game to the table. Let me know how it goes. Sometimes it is easier to play two handed with the normal rules first, so you can learn the flow of the game and then tackle the solo rules afterwards. Either way, these games often take a few plays before they really sink in. Hope you have a fun time. Thanks for watching!

@MikeMcCraith 11 ай бұрын

Late to the game (literally), but im having a spirited discussion with the TV 😅 At the 55:20 mark, I think you could have used both workers to change your 5 to a 3 to put out the castle. Then the bonus action from the castle would have allowed you to put out the pigs. You would have completed a single cell space for an additional three points, but then also all of the red spaces for an additional 5 points.

@@TotallyTabled yeah it didn’t really matter much on your gameplay as u kicked chateaumas’ butt. 😂 I’ve also only realised that getting the silver from your mine is done at the end of the turn rather than at the start. That’s why I think people (me included) forgets to get the income before counting the final scores.
