If you've read the first book, David starting out with a motorcycle is kind of hilarious.
Say what you will about Steelheart, judging from the location artwork, you really have to admire the guy's attention to detail. In the midst of subjugating the city, fighting off rival epics, hunting reckoners, and heaven knows what else, he still found time to carve his name on the front of the Field Museum and to have a new sign made for the (renamed) Newcago Theatre. Having the new sign done in the iconic style of the original was a nice touch, and it really is nice to know that the city's new overlord is a patron of the arts. A lot of superpowered, homicidal maniacs would have let those little things slide, but not Steelheart, and that's what makes the difference between a High Epic and the regular kind!
That's a great attention to detail right there! I was too busy researching how to defeat him to even notice!
Actually, he's a High Epic because of his invincibility, but I get your point. 😉
Wow!!! Those components are top notch!
Thanks for checking out the video! And the components.
I’ve read the books and this is a cool interpretation.
Thanks for checking out the video!
We're so excited about this game. The quality is unreal.
I'm happy that I could give you a look at how the game plays!
Ahhhh! I’m so excited! I love this series and couldn’t wait for this game to come out. So glad it looks so clean and well organized
I'm glad I could give you a sneak peek at the game!
this was on my list to checkout at Gen Con!!! thanks for doing this!!! and great job as always!!!
Thanks for the kind words Rob!
Wow! what an amazing job. Thanks Rodney for teaching how to play The Reckoners.
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
So glad I backed this game :) :)
Thanks for checking out the video!
Great video, as always! I finally have a copy of this game; and now that I'm almost done with the novels, I'm even more excited to try it out-- thanks to you!
I hope you have a great time bringing the characters to life Joel!
Incredible game, the strategy, quality, art, props, and presentation (but still doesn't compare to your video of course!)
Thanks so much for the kind words Tyler! Glad you enjoyed the video!
I hope you do a play through of this game. Looks interesting.
There was one tonight actually. www.twitch.tv/videos/303488015
This video just made me pre-order the deluxe edition! Cant wait!
I'm really glad I could help you make up your mind on the game!
Great video, really well presented and very clear explanation! Thanks
Thank you for the kind words!
This game looks fun. Thanks for doing the setup and rules explanation as always!
You're welcome! I'm always glad to help!
Thanks for your great video. Now the rulebook seems easy to understand and use.
So glad the video was helpful to you!
Man, do I regret not backing this! Looks awesome.
Glad to give you an early look at the game!
It’s still available for preorder on their website
Aaaaaaand preordered!
I really want this game.
I didn't comment or liked this video when I first watched 2 yrs ago! Sorry...
Awesome content, as always from Watch it Played!
Welcome back :) Thanks for the kind comment!
Excitement reached critical mass. Had to preorder.
Glad the video could help you reach that state! Hope you get to play before your excitement overflows!
Sold me! Ordered.
Glad I could help you make your mind up on it!
I have been tearing through your videos and discovered this. As a huge Sanderson fan I didn't know this game existed, thanks for the exposure, it looks great! Have you had a chance to try out Call to Adventure: The Stormlight Archives or Mistborn: House War? Both are from different series in Sanderson's universe.
Well, I'm glad you found these then! I did get a chance to try out Call to Adventure Stormlight, just recently, actually.
Excellent explanation! Bought this game last year and just now getting to it.
I hope you have a great time with it - it's one I really enjoyed!
Watch It Played Thank you! I’m super excited after watching this!! I’m trying to work through it so that I can teach my 75 yr old mother to play. Yes. She likes playing board games, and I just taught her how to play Lords of Waterdeep.
@@therightside7462 That's really fantastic (and Waterdeep is a great one too!)
I acquired the game through a BGG trade and felt obligated to read the book. So I purchased it on Audible. I'm on Chapter 7 and now I can't wait to play the game! :)
Glad you're enjoying! Hope you have a fun time with the game as well :)
Great video Rodney. Pretty sure i'll be ordering this once it arrives in NZ.
Did you end up getting it? And yes, this answer is 2 years late - turns out I've found that the RUclips comment reporting skipped several. Been making a little journey back through and catching comments that were missed.
@@WatchItPlayed Yes, yes i did and I reviewed it and gave it the 3MBG gold medal award. Mostly because i love that the co-op happens all at once, and you can stagger each players actions and make combos, as opposed to the pandemic norm of "one player acts, then AI reacts"
@@3MBG Yes, I liked the combo-ing aspect as well. Made the game feel "more" co-operative.
Looks awesome. I wish i could buy this, i love when games come with more than just the necesary to play. But i guess if i can fin a TTS version to play it would also be great!
Hope you're able to give it a shot!
I did like your live game on Periscope. :)
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
As always, an excellent "How to play"
Thank you Jamie!
I Reckon it's a pretty fun game to play.
I don't like to give my opinions on games, so I'll have to leave that for you to decide! Thanks for checking out the video though!
Good vidéo
Thank you!
Alternative video when talking about where to find what all the abilities meant you said "on these two pages" which pages were those exactly. You might have shown them on screen and I just miss them but I didn't see what pages.
I shot this long enough ago, I don't know which section of the video you are referring to (if you want to share a time stamp I can check). That said, this might be a case where it could be just as fast for you to to flip through the rule book to look for those two pages?
According to the kickstarter the metal plan tokens you're using are only in the deluxe version. The retail version comes with cardboard tokens.
What we're showing in the video are actually the plastic planning tokens that come with the base game. You're right that the kickstarter version came with metal tokens though.
I am watching this and deep inside regretting not backing on KS, because I was so close on backing this game.
Sorry to hear that! Hope you can get yourself a copy!
This is like “The Boys” board game
I want this game! I blame Rodney lol! Is this game out yet?
Hi Dean - The game debuts at Gen Con 2018. It will hit retail around September this year.
Brett Sobol oh wait I don't blame Rodney, I blame you for wanting this game lol
Guilty as charged ;)
Just finished the first book. Can't wait to start killing Epics.
Hope you have a great time! I’m still reading through the first book myself :)
I listened to the 3 audiobooks while I waited for the game to arrive. Very enjoyable and more complexity and surprises than I anticipated.
So to clarify for the dice rolling and placing in rows - the only real reason for that is that it provides 2 Errol’s of dice you don’t want to keep and after the 3rd roll you are forced to keep what is left? The actual row mechanic doesn’t have any other bearing on the game? Did I interpret that right?
Errol’s. I meant re-rolls. :)
You are corrent that the column doesn't matter, but it is very helpful when playing with others. Because you don't have to keep pace, you can easily see what roll the other players are on, by the number of rows with dice in them.
It's important to remember that once you've chosen to keep a die and placed it into a row, you can't go back and roll it again. So the rows are a reminder of that as well.
Game looks fun and I'm a fan of Brandon Sanderson. However, the price point scares me. I'm not sure if there is 100 dollars worth of game there.
That's exactly how I feel. My wife and I are huuuuge Brandon Sanderson nerds and love board games and this game does look fun, but $100? It's Co-op King of Tokyo. $100????
That's not really a fair comparison. King of Tokyo is a very light gateway game that has much less going on than this game does. Also components aren't free, either. With the miniatures, a lot more dice, and especially all the GameTrayz (which a lot of gamers buy to upgrade their games and keep them organized a lot better) it's not really that unreasonable to expect a higher cost.
I agree that it's not a fair comparison. I also agree that components cost money. However, I think it was a mistake to make THIS particular game have an entry point of 100 dollars. I don't think the gameplay warrants it. It feels like something that should have settled between 30 and 40 dollars. CMON just produce Cthulu Death May Die with wayyyy more value than this game supplies at 100 dollars on kickstarter. The IP here isn't as well known either. GameTrayz may be great, but now you've decided up front that everyone needs them. I personally want to get this game as a fan of the source material and feel bad that it's going to cut out some of the core audience who won't be able to come off 100 dollars for this.
I wanted to add some positive comment here to feel better about some of the negativity. I do think the game looks good and it's nice that the production quality appears to be strong. Also, this is another great, clear, concise video from Rodney. I consider him the best source for learning to play games and I've supported this channel since I discovered it.
Not gonna lie, this is a little stiff of a price point for a dice game. Looks fantastic, just not sure at 100 dollars. Maybe a budget version without the game trays would be perfect.
Will you be doing a playthrough for the game?
I really hope so.
I can't say for sure as I don't like to pre-announce my videos too far ahead of time, mostly to avoid disappointment if my schedule needs to shift around. It's something I've thought about though!
Watch It Played I really hope you do. Its such an amzing game.
I would like to see how "Lucky Luke" rolls the dice in this game.
It's not out yet, launching at Gen Con. Pre-orders are available online: www.nauvoogames.com/the_reckoners
Where can you buy this?
Pre-orders are available on www.nauvoogames.com/the_reckoners. You can also select pick-up at Gen Con with GENCON2018 discount code.
Did you find a copy?
@@WatchItPlayed I did and I also got the ks items and the expansion. Thank you all for the follow up.
At 22:08, I don't understand how to navigate the "hideout found" track, as there are 5 spots to move the marker down... But in which order?
Each spot is a little lower than the other (each spot is raised a little more than the other). It's easier to tell in person, if you aren't looking directly down on it, and are more looking form the side. Do you have a copy of the game? I so, you'll see what I mean. Hope that helps!
@@WatchItPlayed I don't own the game yet, as I'm thinking about whether I should buy it or not. Merci beaucoup!
@@mat-ventures You're very welcome!
I played this for the first time yesterday and there’s just one rule text I don’t understand. On page 21 there are examples of Ability/Equipment cards. One involves cards such as Bank Vault, Bribe, Checkmate…. It’s where you can use a certain die symbol to activate the card and get 3 symbols in return. The part I’m confused about is that it can “alternatively be used to Move or Remove a Barricade.” I’m not sure I’m understanding it right because this doesn’t make sense to me. Why would I spend a die that could be used to Move or Remove a Barricade to activate a card that just gives me the same option? Am I missing something?
I do my best to answer all rules questions on the games I cover, but I avoid individual card effects, as that's a level of detail beyond what I can manage across all the videos I do. I'd suggest checking the rules forum for the game on BoardGameGeek or the publishers website. I hope you can find your answer there - have fun playing!
What about the symbol to the left of the track on an epic? How does that work?
Sorry, I shot this long enough ago that you'd have to be more specific.
Watch It Played lol it’s ok. Just learned about the game today.
You mentioned that on the Epix power track that if it tries to go farther to the right then it’s possible it just activates the symbol to the right the number of times it would have moved. What I want to know is does anything happen when you try to move it farther left, in the weakening direction, than is possible. There appears to be a blue star to the left of it, but that may be just for decoration or something
@@mastrheartsxiii Yeah, if I don't explain it, then you don't have to worry about it - this video covers all the rules :)
Watch It Played sounds good. I’ve checked the rules and found nothing, and since they all have the same blue star I realized, it presumably was to indicate where the “containment” ability is used I’m guessing.
This game looks mad fun, but I don't have enough friends who know the series enough to really get into the game, lol.
If it helps, I hadn't read the books at all.
Where do I get it??
Pre-orders are available on www.nauvoogames.com/the_reckoners. You can also select pick-up at Gen Con with GENCON2018 discount code.
Brett Sobol is there a description of the differences between the versions listed, i.e. Studio to Epic?
Hey Frank - The difference in the editions is noted on our Kickstarter page. www.kickstarter.com/projects/nauvoogames/the-reckoners
In brief, Steelheart/Deluxe edition includes 23 metal components, metal coins, a metal Steelheart miniature, a printed Reckoners booklet with exclusive new content, and card sleeves for the game. The Epic edition includes the same as above but also includes 7 pre-painted miniatures. The retail version is the normal game as shown here, but it also includes the Kickstarter promos (as do the Epic and Deluxe versions).
Brett Sobol thanks so much!!!
It looks amazing and I am thinking about getting the Epic version to make it more realistic, if you know what I mean
Is there game play video.
Not currently.
Seems I am still able to pre-order this game form the KS
www.kickstarter.com/projects/nauvoogames/the-reckoners/description
You can indeed!
I've never heard of this, but I love Brandon Sanderson so I'm here checking this out. This looks incredibly convoluted and I don't see much game beneath the components. Hopefully someone I know picks this up so I can play it to see.
Thanks for checking out the video either way!
Nowhere in the rulebook or this video does it say where to place the players for the setup.
What do you mean by "where to place the players"? Do you mean, where people are meant to sit at the table? If so, you sit however is convenient for you (there no rules about where players sit at the table). If you mean to ask where are the characters are placed - that is mentioned in the video (but it's something that happens during the Prologue step, not during the setup) - so it is mentioned in the Prologue step of the rule book and this video. Sorry if I'm misunderstanding the question. I hope that helps.
@@WatchItPlayed yeah I meant where the players characters are placed during setup, not the actual players themselves. Sorry for the confusion.
@@victorgonzalez2927 No worries, did the answer address your question?
Game seems interesting. I find production somewhat off-putting though, the black plastic 'inserts' everywhere. I would have preferred indented/layered and illustrated cardboard.
Thanks for checking out the video either way!
The Boys the game
A bit :)
Certainly gives board games that tactile difference! Pity the dice look painted - I only buy games with etched dice.
That’s a very specific requirement :) Either way, thanks for checking out the video!
Watch It Played If the game has dice, there's only one correct way to do them (^_-)
They're likely heat pressed, a new technology made popular by Star Wars Destiny. Check it out- honestly it's much better than etching, imo!
Ben Anderson it's not exactly new technology
