A really nice playthrough! This is one of my favourite games and definitely my favourite Uwe game. I really like the variation in play depending on the available buildings: e.g. sometimes building loads of ships is a good strategy; other times (like here where you had the renting service) it can be better NOT to build them! And I almost never buy back shares until the 6th or 7th round when they’re cheaper. The solo 3-game campaign is really excellent as it forces you to build different buildings and look for different combos to score points. Just to say there is nothing in the rules for solo play about having to place the ‘C’ buildings in spaces on the A and B boards. It says there is no C board, so you just place them alongside. So by only giving yourself 5 C buildings to pick from rather than 7, you’re effectively playing on ‘hard mode’!
Oh really!! How funny I didn't read it in that way but you're right I don't think it actually says to put them on the boards. I'm doing better than I thought then haha!! I really must get the campaign played it sounds like it's a great challenge. Thank you so much for watching and for pointing it out about the c buildings!
@@bluedogboardgames The solo campaign mode is also pretty quick. Resetting the boards between games only takes a few moments, so I can usually complete the campaign in 60-75 mins.
Hi: I'm a new subscriber, and I just wanted to let you know how much I'm enjoying your channel! I like the content, as you cover fun and interesting games. I like the fact that you discuss the choices you're making during the playthrough. This is really interesting and helpful, because it helps me to learn the nuainces of the game quickly. Your closing thoughts about the games are very helpful. You provide useful information regarding the difficulty, replayability, component quality, etc. and this helps me to decide if its a game I might want to purchase. Great channel. Best Regards, Keith
Thank you for your channel and this playthrough of Nusfjord. You helped me to learn the game rules for solo games. It is a fun design with interesting opportunities for synergies between building & elder cards, resources and ship tiles.
Just got this gane had a watch of your video wow such good playthrough really helped Many ta's love your videos and I got caverna cos I see your video on that happy days 😁
Hi, Thank you for the nice play-through. The Renting Service building really boosted your score (and I'll need to look out for that building!). I did notice during rounds 4 and 6 you dealt the C cards into the available spaces on the supply board and, since there were fewer spaces than cards, you didn't use all the C cards. There is a rules clarification on BGG about this. It says the C cards in a solo game are to placed next to your supply board (without a board of their own). This way, you get to consider all 4 (round 4) and all 3 (round 6) C cards. Maybe that small change can help your solo play scores. Nusfjord is one of my favorite games (solo) for all the reasons you outline.
Thank you so much for watching! And yes, I believe someone else pointed that out to me previously - it wasn't clear to me in the rules but makes sense, so thank you for that. I haven't gone back to play it again yet to see if it helps me with my scores XD
Wow yes that would make it thematic!! There's a Big Box hopefully releasing soon for Nusfjord so you may have better luck sourcing a copy once that is released! :)
This is one of my fave solo games, live how quick and simultaneously chunky it is. There is a uber-big box version coming out soon I believe with previous expansions and new ones!! Hope you get round to a playthrough of that one too😁
i really like the theme of this game and look at that cover! its beautiful unfortunately for me, i cannot find this game anymore,,theres no available in our country and amazon :( great playthrough and video as always
And as always, thank you so much for your support 🥰 Hold tight as I believe there is a Nusfjord big box coming soon!! In fact I thought it was coming this year but haven't heard about it for a little while so perhaps next year. Hopefully you'll be able to find a copy then, or at least a second hand copy of this version 😁
@@bluedogboardgames really?! im gonna keep my eye on that, i hope the box is not too big tho,its a problem to find a space for big boxes versions tbh. but i really want this game and its theme thanks for the info :)
I've just had a look, some people in the know on Board Game Geek have said they're hoping to finish production by the end of this year then it should be available for pre-order early-ish next year if plans go well 😁
Absolutely! I'm creating a whole series of videos - I still have at least 2-3 more playthroughs to film and publish then will focus on a ranking list for all of the solo modes from those I've played :) I'm getting there! It's a long process
My favourite solo game so far. I don’t even care about the score, It just relaxes me snd is always dome sort of s wholesome experience. However, when it comes to the score I never beat the 30 points with the recommended fish deck but I do with all the other fish decks (sadly don’t have the salmon deck)
You have inspired me! I just received my copy of the nusfjord big box. Super excited :D

Thank you! I'm enjoying it too! Yes definitely ticks a box that his other games so far do not! Thank you for watching 😁
Thanks for showing us this game! I would totally fetch some Norwegian coins from my purse to use in this game, if I ever get Nusfjord 😊
Wow yes that would make it thematic!! There's a Big Box hopefully releasing soon for Nusfjord so you may have better luck sourcing a copy once that is released! :)

@@TpDgreat The Nusfjord Big Box has just been released. :-)
Would you ever consider making a video where you rank the Rosenberg games for multi and/or solo?
Absolutely! I'm creating a whole series of videos - I still have at least 2-3 more playthroughs to film and publish then will focus on a ranking list for all of the solo modes from those I've played :) I'm getting there! It's a long process
