    Thank you very much for this video; it's the only one i've come across that discusses the "edge cases", which I have found occur all the time and aren't clarified in the rulebook! I love GF9 games, but this one definitely has the most holes in the rules. I would really appreciate if they could correct any wording errors or gaps in the rules in the PDF version of the rulebook they provide on their website - I'd be happy to print it off myself to add to the box. Otherwise, this game is great for a fun evening with other Aliens nerds and is dripping with the source material theme (like all of the other GF9 games). I'd love a part 3 video that discusses the expansions and the other tid bits not discussed in this video. Cheers!

    This game has one of the worst - THE WORST - manuals in any board game I've played. Ask yourselves how many Motion Tracker cards to draw each round in a 4-player game (hint: it's *not* 4, despite the rules very clearly stating "Starting with the highest ranking player, each player in turn draws and resolves a Motion Tracker card."). Also, have a think about what happens if a blip comes into line-of-sight during the player characters' turn (hint: The rules suggest the blip flips, resolves into one alien or a swarm, then immediately moves and attacks as though in the alien activation step - we believe this is simply poorly written and in fact the blip should flip, resolve and remain static until the Activate Aliens step). Or here's a simple one: How many characters are in play in each game (hint: this is never mentioned - I think we're supposed to just assume that all of them are in play?). Also - "highest ranking player" is only useful if there is a highest ranking player, but several times in our game we had two Lts. Unless all characters are ranked (they are not) it's not always possible to determine rank. Don't get me wrong - great fun to play and well aligned thematically to the movies. But, if you wish to play this game, be prepared to interpret and agree on house rules a LOT, because you simply cannot rely on the manual to tell you how to play this game.

And she. Si she put the cards in her hand, even if it is not written in the ability. Can each character have a heroic card in her hand. Or the dining room. Some. That is stated in the rules, right?

    Damage tokens are shuffled back into the pile of available damage tokens, but Im pretty sure I remember hazard tiles go into a discard pile that is only reshuffled if necessary. Incidently, thru 12 plays we've never had to. I would also note that ONLY negative I can find in this great game is that the constant reshuffling of damage tokens gets tedious. I suppose it would be easier to use an old crown royal bag to draw tokens. However, the thing I don't like about cardboard in draw bags is that the pieces wear much quicker.

At 24:55 You said that you can use a command dice to repair a car before you give a car an activation dice and then activate the repaired car. I can't find in the rules where it says this. Just looking for clarification thanks.

    • @TheBoardGameGuy
      @TheBoardGameGuy Год назад

      That’s actually been reversed by the publishers. They said that was the case on a rules forum thread on www.boardgamegeek.com but then changed their minds. You can repair a card with a command die, and then issue a move die to it on a subsequent turn during the same round, but you can’t repair then move on the same turn. I was going off out of date information that I didn’t realize was out of date.
