"Think of the coolest thing you possibly can" *remembers that time Lawrence ended a board game by driving full speed into a wall* (It was Adam not Lawrence)
I'm 1 minute in and disappointed Law-dogg isn't there to scream tron-centric facts at the table with the darkest thickest sunglasses on and wearing the drapiest leather coat
i generally love when there a new fh video.. but when it's a board as hell i prepare the water and snacks, pee before it starts and get comfy, cause i'm not gonna stop for anything
James: "We must come to an agreement on where to place these orbs first." Also James: Takes orbs from Adam and Jacob and sets them up where they should go
Chromelium He suggested a idea , they agreed and placed it there then they put their riders pointlessly far from the orbs otherwise all the orbs were fairly equidistant. Am i missing something?
@@jpetras16 he put the pieces so nobody had one directly infront of them and it was more or less equal distance. He even moved the one infront of him further away in the triangle to be far. You can tell he is experienced with board games as he is maintaining whats most fair for their situation.
@@jambriest What he does is takes over and capitalizes on the other people's lack of knowledge of the game. This is heavily shown in their "tree" board game episode they did. He's very deceptive and I'm not sure why people choose to play with him, besides the fact that he's one of the most powerful people in Funhaus who is the one who makes these video decisions. Ever since Bruce and Lawrence left, you can see this type of behavior being manifested in both James and Elyse. The Elyse we have now is not the same Elyse as before. They fell far.
Board as Hell is possibly one of my favorite series you folks do here. With so much attention given to videogames it's a nice reminder (and I can safely say that I needed it) of how fun a board game can be.
You guys should put the title of the board game in the description to support the creators! The game is called Lazer Ryderz and I just purchased it because of this video. Thanks FH!
Heck yes, was thinking the same thing! I love this game! The folks that designed it, Cardboard Fortress, also made a Centipede (yes the arcade game) board game and a really cool 1v1 game called Resistor_ and the latter is super fun and strategic!
This is far from my favorite episode of Board as Hell, but I'll be damned if it isn't the best opening. James and the editing did a hell of a job pumping things up.
This game is really fun! If you have a local board game store that sells it I highly recommend. You get this super fun game and help a board game store that is struggling right now, they might even deliver it to you :) Full disclosure I know the folks that designed this game and I'm just so excited that Funhaus just played it!
This game had much more potential than I first originally thought. Really glad to see this board game show again one of my favorite FunHaus dealeos. Hope you play haunted house on the hill again!!!!!
Me: O_O James at 0:28: Close your eyes! Me: -_- Me 30 minutes later waiting for James to tell me to open my eyes so I can actually enjoy the video: -_- ......
For placing the prisms randomly, might I suggest the humble Scatter Die, which used to be used quite often in WarHammer games. It is just a die with a bunch of arrows on it, which, when rolled, will point in the direction the shot, bomb, etc. was scattered, and you roll (usually) two d6 to see just how far it went in that direction, in inches. I could see that being used quite well here, perhaps with different numbers so it could scatter farther since that is quite a big board.
@@woodyfentress oh cool I thought he said something about his childhood at the beginning I was a bit toasty when I started to watch this lol thanks for the info
Thing I love about bored as hell is at first, it kinda seems like no one is into game. Then like 10-15 minutes in everyone is fully invested
also goes with them slowly understanding the rules and finally mastering it

Can I get a link to the episode please and thank you
I think you mean when James Willems the sociopath won the game by being elected *as Hitler*
Michael Ross Addicted to D is the title
I just watched that he got second place. Adam drove in to the wall to end it
@@606hunter1 good god someone thank you
I’m surprised they didn’t have Lawrence as a guest star for this one. He used to be the resident office Tron/lawnmower-man expert.
Think they just did this one asap to have while out of office.
I'm 1 minute in and disappointed Law-dogg isn't there to scream tron-centric facts at the table with the darkest thickest sunglasses on and wearing the drapiest leather coat
Seems like they don't want to come back. They both appeared in an Easy Allies video
@@MrScrawnjuan i dont know but he just leave a couple months ago, maybe he just want to ride on his own for a while
He maybe just want to go alone for a while, he said he wasnt going to become only a twitchstreamer, but is the only thing he has done
i generally love when there a new fh video.. but when it's a board as hell i prepare the water and snacks, pee before it starts and get comfy, cause i'm not gonna stop for anything
Stefano! The house is on fire and flooding at the same time!
@@Profile__1 welp it was destiny, not pausing
There better be a shirt with Jacobs face in 80s shades and “Lazershark” in 80s writing.
James never told me to open my eyes, guess this is a podcast now
You’re good writing that with your eyes closed
I didn't know they made a board game based on the life of the great Lawrence Sonntag
James: "We must come to an agreement on where to place these orbs first."
Also James: Takes orbs from Adam and Jacob and sets them up where they should go
Puts them much closer to him too lmao

That was the best intro I’ve heard for anything!.. gave me goosebumps!
For ppl freaking out, they filmed two episodes of board as hell before leaving the office so thank you fh!

"See you in hell, space hell" - Jams the space man
God bless this show! I've actually bought a bunch of the games featured, I think 13 Dead End Drive is my favorite!
Oh the synthwave beats coming in. This is gonna be a good episode.
When told he'd have to roll, Adam panicked for a second because he didn't know how to make his Skelenaut do tricks

Thanks. This is just what I wanted/needed. Love from Sweden.
I'm so glad you brought this series back. Looking forward to watching more
Man I’d love to see James’s board game collection, SUSD style!
This needs some rockin' royalty-free outrun music blasting
I love all the weird games they play on this show
This is far from my favorite episode of Board as Hell, but I'll be damned if it isn't the best opening. James and the editing did a hell of a job pumping things up.
"Laser Shark underestimated Cosmonaut!"
It's incorporeal!

48:26 Adam's happy face truly brings me joy in these hard times
Honestly I haven't seen a more fun looking tabletop game in a while
This game is really fun! If you have a local board game store that sells it I highly recommend. You get this super fun game and help a board game store that is struggling right now, they might even deliver it to you :)
Full disclosure I know the folks that designed this game and I'm just so excited that Funhaus just played it!
This looks like it would make a fantastic online game to play with a group of friends right now. I want it.
"This game is like Tron but good"
- Lawrence will remember that
Oh hey, I've demo'd this game at several conventions. Easily top 5 favorite board games.
Right? It's so good!
I am so hype everytime a board as hell video is uploaded!!! I know I love the video without watching it lol
Adams "oh no" had me laughing my ass off
Love the cassette tape bit at the beginning, especially since it's actually designed like a VHS tape, not cassette.
I always loved how Buster Homing Lasers and Buster Slice curve through space at such high speeds and distances that make your head spin.
The intro to this is so magnificent, it should be put up for awards, I am so amazed. Bravo James, bravo.
Watching this while listening to synth is amazing! Thank you Funhaus for continuing to upload during these times! You guys are lifesavers!!!
What the hell, I can't remember the last time an intro sold me so well on anything… that was impressive. Good job James and editor.
Yes!! I love it when Jacob does Board as Hell
Great thanks guys
Not only was that the best opening to any funhaus video, but i'm also starting to gain more and more respect for James and his whacky ass brain.
LOVED THIS INTRO!!!! GETTING BETTER AND BETTER!
it's like you're always stuck in second gear..
Clap clap clap clap
James' intros are such good ads I'm surprised that they aren't sponsored to play the game they're playing.
I've been watching all your videos from like 2017 because I've been self isolated for 13 days. It's been amazing.
Loving this series, hope you guys keep playing boardgame till the end of time
Board as Hell a.k.a the best show on Funhaus. Let's go!
This game had much more potential than I first originally thought. Really glad to see this board game show again one of my favorite FunHaus dealeos. Hope you play haunted house on the hill again!!!!!
With Covid-19 running rampant at the moment, the next Bored as Hell will have to be played within Tabletop Simulator.
wow !!! props to whomever wrote the intro and to james for the delivery. i didnt watch the rest of the video because it's too long
YAY more board as hell these have become my favourite stuff from funhaus to rewatch
I looove Board as Hell!! Watching Funhays play tabletop simulator would also be cool!
I think this is the first time I actually want a copy of a game that they played. This looks fun and fantastic
“They’re called claspers” Jacob is my favorite!
I'd love another one of these with the 4th character!
I love how theyre practicing social distancing by standing 6 feet apart from eachother😂
Thank you for keeping me entertained for at least an hour in this.
This one was really fun. Easy to play and understand. I like it
the whole opening was masterful
By the name of this video I was convinced they were playing one of those games from the 90’s there you angle mirrors to direct lasers.
Me: O_O
James at 0:28: Close your eyes!
Me: -_-
Me 30 minutes later waiting for James to tell me to open my eyes so I can actually enjoy the video: -_- ......
3 grown men turn into teenage boys for an hour, so wholesome, I love these guys
Two and a half men maybe. Jacob is a good little boy.
This game definitely needs a locked grid for the board so that the pieces don't move around
For placing the prisms randomly, might I suggest the humble Scatter Die, which used to be used quite often in WarHammer games. It is just a die with a bunch of arrows on it, which, when rolled, will point in the direction the shot, bomb, etc. was scattered, and you roll (usually) two d6 to see just how far it went in that direction, in inches. I could see that being used quite well here, perhaps with different numbers so it could scatter farther since that is quite a big board.
Star wars and sharks. What else do you need to know?!?!? My fandom for Jacob has increased so much!
Covid-19 be damned funhaus shows up with dope content
“sometimes i just wanna stay in” in the quarantine just hits different
Best goddamn intro you've written so far, holy fucking shit.
I love when james pulls out games from his childhood I never knew such cool games existed!
Are you referring to this game? This one had a kickstarter in 2016 and I believe it hit shelves in 2017 :)
@@woodyfentress oh cool I thought he said something about his childhood at the beginning I was a bit toasty when I started to watch this lol thanks for the info
NEED more of this game
Good Job James on another Board As Hell!!!! keep up the good work
playing this without lawrence should be illegal
Jacob is like the sweet lil child being raised by funhaus eager to impress his papas
you guys have to play this one again, with 4 people and call Lawrence now!
won this in a raffle and enjoyed it but couldn't get it played with my groups so traded it for something I could get played more reliably
I will ALWAYS cheer for an Adam win
visual games like this are more fun to watch that those with 100 cards and 1000 rules. they gotta play this again
Did you know the Blueshift is when you go between the 4th and 5th gear?
I’m pretty sure he said 3rd and 4th.
That intro was amazing
I challenge Jacob to a game of.... Shark Jeopardy!
this game actually looks so fun
just bought this
Woo! Board as hell is back!
Adam finally won something after a long time. You’re like the vegeta to James’ Goku.
Best thing during this lockdown, I wished for Jacob to win.
yeah this game needs a part two, so funny to watch!
I LOVE THIS SHOW
My body is ready.
Jacob always has some random knowledge that gets everyone real quiet
Mad respect for that throw Adam
And nice catch Jacob
I kinda want a short stop motion video of the overhead view of the game with all the trails going forward and capturing points like a tiny tron movie.
I definitely want to see them play this with four people
I would love another video of this with a fourth person.
I'm just glad Adam didn't get stuck in the Blueshift
I bought this game because of this video... love it!
Damn. Jacob should have said something like "My prisms only dropped a few days ago."
I have no idea whats going on but i use james' voice as asmr to fall asleep ,goodnight fam!
Ah, the joy of watching people talk to each other in the same room. :'(
I would love to see more of this!
That outro be hittin DIFFERENT.
So kewl! Reminds me a LOT of Car Wars, though with a bit more streamlined rules.
A space shark full of laser hubris.
This was pretty entertaining. I kinda want to play this with my friends after quarantine
