I've never subscribed to a channel like this before, but this unboxing was so high-quality that I felt I had to. Thank you for stopping to show each card individually, it was extremely helpful to our gaming group. We had a player accidentally spill soda on some of our cards without realizing it even happened. By the time we noticed, some of the cards were soaking so long that we couldn't even read the full text on them anymore. We were extremely heartbroken, especially when I looked around online and couldn't find any replacements available to purchase (without buying the entire game and Medic expansion again). I couldn't even find card scans to try to make an aesthetically tolerable replacement. Some of the ruined cards were Medic actions, which seemed even less likely to find. Sad and upset, we eventually gave up and decided to just look up the card text for each card and make a new plain-looking deck with no art, that just had the plain text for each card printed on cardstock. It felt incredibly lame and made us really unhappy, but we didn't seem to have any choice. I figured maybe an unboxing video would show enough of the card text to piece together what the exact wording on the ruined cards used to be. Then I found this video. Imagine my happy surprise when each card is being held up individually to show the full text of every card. And even more unexpected, the video is in HD and the cards are mostly unobscured, and you were even trying your best to not block the art or text with your fingers. That allowed me to come up with a slightly more palatable solution to our disaster: I was actually able to use frames from the video to produce some semblance of the original art and text style on the cards. Of course it's still super obvious that the cards are homemade, but having some form of the art on there resembling the ruined cards makes us feel like we won a small victory. These cards will be functional enough for our table until there's a way to replace them properly, and we won't have to feel upset every time we look at them in the meantime. We have your video to thank for making our small victory possible in what otherwise felt like a hopeless situation. Thank you for your hard work, and your dedication to quality and thoroughness. It really saved us this time, and I'll be subscribed to your channel from now on as a result.
Wow! Well I'm really glad you enjoy how I do unboxing videos and better yet you were able to fix the issues with your cards. I'd also highly recommend reaching out to Awaken Realms about the cards that were destroyed, you may be surprised to find they will likely help you replace them! Thanks for taking the time to share this and hope you enjoy the rest of the channel's content. Glad to have you as part of the community!
Congrats on getting the rest of the game! Having watched your unboxing, I now regret not getting the terrain expansion. :( Either way, the entire production quality on display is top notch. Hope you manage to survive your run!
Yay! Good to see you received the rest! I’ve been playing it non-stop since reviewing mine and it’s my fav game of all time! The only thing I regret getting is the art book as I had hoped for some lore and short stories in there and some more behind the scenes, painting inspiration, etc. From the terrain expansion I wish they had included intruder corpses seeing as we get egg minis. Those, however, I feel aren’t very useful and are far too tightly fitted in the box. Also, I was disappointed to see Untold Stories 2 is not usable solo and is semi coop only so I won’t be able to use it much. But very glad to see the quality of the minis much improved from the first wave it would seem as is the quality of the board, judging from the criticism and videos/photos from back this time last year. I really hope you’ll do a voidseeder and Carnomorph play through!
Great thoughts here Karim and I feel the safe in regards to some of the minis being tight to pull out of the tray. Sometimes I bit too tight! Interesting to know about Untold Stories #2, I wasn't aware of that. Need to look into it more now. A playthrough of the regular game solo would be fun. I would certainly use one of the two news types if I did. Cheers! :)
Dry brushing is all you need to do and is super easy. Look up a tutorial. I did it when I started out with Zombicide and it turned out awesome. That’s all Sundrop is basically
Missed the KS, bought 3 months ago translated into my language. To be short: 2nd wave is only for KS pledgers? no chance to see it in the shelf of my hobby shop in the future? How to know for sure?
Hello! There are no plans to bring the KS exclusive content to retail. Could change but nothing has been said yet. Best to look into board game groups on FB, eBay or BGG Market.
@@RollingSolo Grazie Adam, I will take a look even if i am already expecting awful prices. BTW, what about Oathsworn, i am teased by the less expensive standee version, the few figures showed looks nice and fit well on the board. At least, they are already painted in the right way :) What about their Pro and contro, can you give an advice please?
Oathsworn is the most anticipated solo game of 2020. So that’s probably all I need to say there! haha I’ve seen DMD for normal prices quite a bit in FB BoardGame sell groups.
@@RollingSolo I love how you reply to everyone I don't think you've never not replied to my questions or comments you're an absolute legend. There's someone on ebay who 3d printed his own doors and bits for it in the uk so will probably go with them.
Hi Adam had a word with Awaken Realms and they said no plans for the expansions as of yet but things might change in the future.Now is it worth getting the Core set?
Hey Gary! I've heard this as well. I think it's not to be expected but the base game is still worth it. You can play solo out of the box in the form of the regular game. Also, if you can get the game to the table with others it's magic!
There is no doubt that you need spend a lot of time to read the rules of Nemesis. It's intresting right? I really like the design of miniatures of different colors with different meanings. Eastar, as the maker of this board game, hopes to be recognized by all Nemesis fans. If you also have such great board game design ideas, you can contact us to realize it!
Essentially Wave 1 is the base game with maybe some small content. Wave 2 is all the extras and bonus content. This varies from project to project though. Mainly it’s a way to get part of it early or wait until later to get it all. Comes at a cost of shipping though.
Check you local game store. You’ll want to make sure it has hobby board games. It’s also a hot seller so it could be hard to find for a bit. Even better check board game stores online in your country!

Thank you very much for showing all cards descriptions. That helped us a lot.
No problem! Thanks for watching 😄
26:04: "Never a bad thing to have more characters"
CMON: Bet!
🤣
Those are very nice figures, so much detail. Some very nice extras there, thanks Adam.
No problem Trev! They did a great job on them. :)
Hope that all the Expansions will be available eventually to purchase.
Me too! I’m don’t believe it’s the plan but based on sales that could change. Who knows! Thanks for watching :)
Gaaaah another great video, Adam! Just got my shipping notification today so I’m excited!
Woohoo! That's a good feeling. Hope you enjoy it! :D
I hadn't backed this kickstarter because I didn't know about it at the time but I have enjoyed seeing the playthrough
Hey Buell! That's awesome to know. See you in the final part of Mission #1 soon! :)
Congrats on getting the rest of the game! Having watched your unboxing, I now regret not getting the terrain expansion. :(
Either way, the entire production quality on display is top notch. Hope you manage to survive your run!
I hope so to! Stay tuned my friend :)
Thank you

My wave 2 is still on the boat, Got forgotten or something! Cant wait to receive it!! Damn its long! hehe
Hope it comes soon! :)
Ughhh need this game to come to retail. Want to play it so bad.
It showed up at my FLGS yesterday in Canada actually so it's in the wild!
Soooooo jealous. I won't be getting mine in Edmonton until December
Hey Jordan! Is that due to one wave shipping?
@@RollingSolo think they said it was because of some shipping mishap. I got split shipping. Anxious to get the wave 2 content
Missing the Pod # for a certain situation where it could important.
Thanks for watching!
How long is each wave to wait ? I try to seek the aftermath and void seeder expansions but cant find one on my country
They came from a crowdfunding campaign as extra expansions. Best thing to do is wait for a future reprint or contact Awaken Realms directly.
I wish I could have gotten the sundrop. Maybe I'll make my intruders necroflesh green :)
Dry brushing is all you need to do and is super easy. Look up a tutorial. I did it when I started out with Zombicide and it turned out awesome. That’s all Sundrop is basically
@@RollingSolo im a painting newb, but yeah I'll give it a shot. On a side note the details on these minis is amazing.
@@zer0zer082 Go for it! You'll be surprised how much the detail on the mini pops from some dry brushing. :D
Missed the KS, bought 3 months ago translated into my language. To be short: 2nd wave is only for KS pledgers? no chance to see it in the shelf of my hobby shop in the future? How to know for sure?

I’ve seen DMD for normal prices quite a bit in FB BoardGame sell groups.
was untold stories 2 included or was that a separate addon?? because i did not receive that with my addons and expansion 2nd wave
The Untold Stories 1 was a stretchgoal, the nr.2 was a separate addon in the pledge manager.
thanks
Zoltan is correct. Thanks for watching too :)
Wish the resident evil 2 minis and doors were this quality.
I’ve heard that is a good one. You can always proxy stuff. I do it all the time! ;)
@@RollingSolo I love how you reply to everyone I don't think you've never not replied to my questions or comments you're an absolute legend.

I'm pretty sure that the mini you weren't sure about is the Eggs :)
If it’s the one I’m thinking of It is indeed! Quite silly of me in hindsight. I blame all the shiny new things distracting me haha
Every reviewer: "not sure what these are"
Conclusion; bad miniatures.
Great video, any idea when this will become available? too late for kick starter...too early for retail :(
Nemesis (the core game only) has landed at my local shop in Canada so it's in the wild! :)

I love Nemesis. Every iteration is awesome and the different ways you can play it just add to it all. I’m a big fan of theme and this one nails it!
@@RollingSolo Yes, it's a perfect board game. Expect Nemesis to bring us more surprises!😆
What the difference between wave 1 and wave 2?
Essentially Wave 1 is the base game with maybe some small content. Wave 2 is all the extras and bonus content. This varies from project to project though. Mainly it’s a way to get part of it early or wait until later to get it all. Comes at a cost of shipping though.
@@RollingSolo have you purchased the nemesis cloth play mat ? If so, do you think its worth it?
It’s a neoprene mat and I’m glad I did. The regular board has deeper blacks but it gets beat up. It’s a game I play often so neoprene for me!
I wanna buy
It’s a great game!
Rolling Solo where can I buy ?
Check you local game store. You’ll want to make sure it has hobby board games. It’s also a hot seller so it could be hard to find for a bit. Even better check board game stores online in your country!
This is big trouble with Kickstarter. Just got core and it excellent but I may not get it all.
It can be hit or miss sometimes with Kickstarter but when it's a hit...boy is it ever! :)
I'm really excited about lockdown too. That one got me in the doghouse with the wife, but I went all in lol.
Game looks great, would be nice to have but my wife would probably divorce me if I dumped a grand or whatever the hell it is on a board game
Not worth it if it involves divorce haha
It’s not anywhere close to a grand though so that should help a bit. :p
Why buy so much stuff that will brutally kill you and make you uncomfortable? Also R.I.P. my credit card.
I like a slow painful death ;p
@@RollingSolo Perfect then, you are in the right country at the right time. lol
haha
