THIS! This is the man I go to for (how to plays!) No one explains in such a straight forward and detailed manner. Thanks Rodney for all you do!! 👍 👍
So kind of you to say - glad you liked it!
@@WatchItPlayed I seldom leave messages, but if anyone deserves some kind words it's you my friend.
At the end of the video that lid spin and then putting it back on the box without a glance was fantastic. Great explanation. I really appreciated how the differences from other Pandemic games were highlighted. I can’t wait to get a chance to try this one out.
Thank you Andrew, really nice to know you enjoyed this!
Thank you very much for this amazing Tutorial ! We are a family of 4 we tried to understand the rules via the manual but we were struggling so much....After seeing your amazing tutorial everything become much more clear ! Thank you and greetings from Portugal :)
I am so glad to hear this was helpful. Greetings from Canada and have a great time playing!
Yes!!! Been waiting for this one. Thanks Rodney.
You're very welcome (I like your RUclips user name :) )
Rodney, your pronunciation of "Novosibirsk" is good and correct, with a slight correction for the accent of course.
Personally, with my English pronunciation, I can hardly pronounce Montague better. ;-)
From Russia with love!
Ah, that's a relief to hear!
What you should be apologizing for is your pronunciation of plague lol.
Thank you for another terrific tutorial, Mr. Smith!
@@nickhuston7934 I agree with you. Rodney doesn't have to apologize for this. But the fact that he paid attention to this was respectful, polite (there should be a joke about Canadians' politeness) and just nice. Especially to residents of Novosibirsk. (google translate)
I completely agree. He doesn’t have to apologize. L
I’ve had the pleasure of meeting him in person, and he just as polite and courteous as he is in his videos.
@@WatchItPlayed you need to apologize to the Colombians for your pronunciation of Bogota, however. 😆
Hey Rodney, thanks for another good how to play video. I really appreciate them. Keep up the good work!
Thank you , and have a great time playing!
I really love your presentation style.
Looked up a certain game recently, and promptly subbed afterwards
Very nice of you to say Kenny - great to have you here!
For me, Rodney does the best how to play videos. Rahdo is good a well when he keeps the camera still. :-)
I’m super excited for this one! I’m currently playing season 1 (currently in October in the campaign, so almost done!) and I have season 2 arriving in the mail any day now. I love season 1 so much so I can’t wait for 2 and 0!
You've got lots of adventuring ahead Derek!
Thanks so much for your videos! We are on the March campaign and this helped clear up some lingering questions…particularly with “incidents” 👍
So nice to know this was helpful!
Excellent video and rules explanation. Love this channel. Super excited to play.
Thanks Kevin, I hope you have a great time with it!
This was incredibly clear and helpful. Thank you!
You're very welcome Catherine - have a great time playing!
This is an amazing tutorial! Very thorough. Thank you!
Thanks you kindly Wesley!
Finally going to start the campaign tomorrow. Thank you for this video
Have fun playing!
Excellent video! Appreciate the clear and quick explanation. More fun than sitting down to read the rules :)
So glad you found this helpful - have fun playing Ryan!
Thank you for this awesome video.
Cant't wait to play 😁
Glad you enjoyed :)
Hello from Germany and thank you Rodney for these Video - Looks good. I have ordered Roll player and Roll player Adventure based on your videos .)
So glad you've been helpful!
Thanks Rodney! Great explanation as usual!
You're very welcome - have a great time playing!
Accidently clicked on this video, blew my mind when i saw all the board games he had in the back round.... drooling
We're glad you dropped by, even if by accident :)
As always, an EXCELLENT explanation of how to play - thanks.
Thank you Dave!
I so want this pandemic to end so we can play Pandemic ❤️
:)
I finally got a chance to finish looking at this. I have to say, it looks really amazing. I am not so sure it would meet the Spousal Challenge, though. My daughter would like it, but with the pandemic, we are not seeing her as much.... We have been working on Hunt a Killer, where you get a package of clues every month, and we are four months behind.... So I hesitate to get this not knowing that I would have a group that would be as interested in playing it. What an intricate game with a lot of great mechanisms!!!!
Thanks for the tutorial vid. I'll have to come back to this in 3 months when it comes out.
Should be arriving in October!
You are pronouncing Novosibirsk perfectly :D Thank you for the great review!
That's very kind of you to say - I really wanted to get as close as my Canadian accent would allow!
Great video, per usual!
Thanks Yashar!
Yet another excellent explanation of a rule set that helped me determined whether to buy the game. I’m definitely getting it now. I miss watching you do a full play through with your kids though. That was always a fun.
Also, video sponsors should also allow you to link to sites where the games are sold to get you additional kickbacks from people who might want to purchase the game.
Those kids refused to stay kids and went and grew up on me :) I hope you have a great time playing Josh!
I watched this when the video came out 3 months ago but watched again today when our copy finally came in!
I hope you have a great time playing Stephen!
Whaaaaaaat!! There's another pandemic legacy?!😱 you just made my day! Need to purchase asap. Thanks Rodney
So glad to be able to surprise you with this!
Not released yet 😢 CAN'T WAIT!
Very helpful after reading rulebook. Well done demo! 👍
Thanks Suzanna - have a great time playing!
As always, Rodney does a phenomenal job at these rules explanations. Friendly, straightforward, and easy to understand. Just excellent!
I actually factor whether or not there is a video here into whether I'm going to pick up a new game.
Such a generous comment Jamie - very glad you've found these helpful!
Same! I always check if Rodney's done a how to play. No one explains rules quite as clearly as Rodney. Love it.
This game sort of feels more like a XCOM board game than the actual XCOM boardgame. it even has the theme/aesthetics of XCOM: Declassified.
Awesome video as always Rodney and team.
Thanks Leo - glad you enjoyed!
Wow! This game looks cool!
Thanks for checking it out!
That might be the best shirt you've ever worn in one of your current-era videos. Someone is clearly having a positive effect on your wardrobe!
Well thank you... wait a minute, this one wasn't plaid.... YOU TAKE THAT BACK! ;)
Watch It Played Plaid is the National Color of Canada!!
I keep reading comments about your pronunciation of Bogotá, I feel your pain... My girlfriend is Spanish, and she bit me (not litterally...) for the entire Pandemic legacy campaigns every single time I had to say BogoTÁ, but pronounced it BoGÓta! 😂
I appreciate your empathy!
same situation with me 😅
Looks like a must play game. I just need to finish season 1with my wife. We play one game every month to keep the actual calendar in line with the game’s calendar.
Hey, very cool. Haven't heard of something doing that, but I like it!
We do that too with PL1! We have just wrapped August and moving to September next month!
I bought Season 1 last month (in real life). the campaign is really exciting. Good luck saving the world!
As usual... 10/10
Thank you kindly Leias!
Hey Rodney! Is it possible you could do a How To Play on Pandemic Legacy Season 2?!
Thanks to your videos I’ve become the game master of my group! 😊
Thanks for the interest! I talk a bit about that here: ruclips.net/video/EdtDuvIUa6A/видео.html&t=342 - really nice to know the videos have been helping, and nice job taking on the rule of game master in your group. Groups usually need one or two people to help lead the sessions!
Do you have a video for season 2? I find your videos very useful!
So glad you enjoyed the video - unfortunately I don't have one for the prior seasons.
@@WatchItPlayed thank you for you answer! My friends and I look at your videos looking to expand our collection!
Great video! (As usual). I have a question, what happens when you finish the scenarios on a legacy game? Is it over and you can’t play it anymore?
In past ones you've been able to play a "version" of Pandemic on your custom board. Not sure about this one, as I haven't played all the way through yet, to see what it's like when it's over.
It depends. Some go so far as you basically "creating your board" as you play ending with a something that you can play asa normal board game afterwards. Others become so messy that it takes a lot of revising to try to even make it playable on any form.
Note that by "replayable" I mean "play as a normal board game". Once you finish Betrayal on House on the Hill Legacy you end up with a fully functional normal Betrayal board to play by design. But you can't replay the story from the first chapter.
The campaign, the actual "legacy" story itself, is typically a one shot deal. Once doneyou can't just reset it to try the campaign again. Not only are the cards written on stickered, or torn up but the game relies on you not knowing what's coming and being surprised by the results.
When I finished my campaign in Pandemic Legacy Season 1, (Spoilers)
I removed the “Faded” stickers from the board and stuck them on the roadblocks tokens, so that now I have a custom board with panic levels and can select a different “COdA” disease each game.
Hey Rodney, with the growing number of games in our collection my group is looking for better shelving and storage. What shelving setup do you have for the games shown in the beginning and end of the video? Also, we can't wait to enjoy this Season of Pandemic tomorrow and thank you for the fantastic explanation of the game! Cheers!
These were made by a local carpenter. Have a great time playing Pandemic!
Thanks, Rodney for your awesome videos. Any idea when its actually going to be released? As a side comment, several videos you have done this year have been prior to the products availability...I get there are "reasons" for doing that but a couple of games I have been "hmm, looks interesting let me get it, oh its not released yet...oh well"....then I forget about them...if I could recall which one it was I would tell you, but ...well...I forgot which one it was LOL. Doesn't matter in this case; as I went and pre-ordered, but everywhere I've looked it just says later this year. Anyway, thanks for the entertainment and knowledge. :-)
You're very welcome, and yes, we often try to get the videos out a little in advance of their formal release, so you have some time to watch and decide if ti's a game you might want to grab once it becomes available. Sometimes I know when the release date will be, other times I'm not sure.
Wow, just wow. I never really liked original Pandemic, and the Legacy versions didn't entice me either. This, however, looks awesome. Thanks to you, this is now on the top of my wish list.
Yes, I think this one is going to appeal to people who maybe weren't even as drawn to the original pandemic. It's also a really beautiful production!
They were all awesome. Try them.
Please do Underwater Cities. Or Ecos. Or both if you can find time for them. They are nice games.
Thanks for the interest!
Rodney i saw marvel champions on that shelf. Are you gonna make video about it
I'd like to, if FFG wants to reach out, I'd be happy to see if I could fit it into my schedule!
Hi, are there stickers to put on the calendar on the left of the board? To mark when you completed a month/prologue.
Also very helpful video, shouldve watched this before we spent 3 hours trying to play the prologue (though we did good and also won, but this would ve been quicker)
I haven't started my actual campaign yet (hoping to soon), so not sure about stickers for the calendar. have fun playing!
Hello! Apologizes if I missed this being said in the video, but I was wondering how easy / hard it is to have players jump in and out of the campaign. The only other legacy game I have played so far is Gloomhaven, and I like the flexibility of being able to play with varying numbers of people. Of course, having a core set is ideal. Looking forward to picking this up either way! Thank you :)
I'm honestly not sure. Assuming it was a straight replacement (someone stepping in where someone else left off), I don't see it would be any trouble.
Friday!!!!!!
I want to try and Legacy game!
the first legacy game i played was Betrayal Legacy. Then I bought Pandemic Legacy Season 1, and now I’m planning to get season 0.
Merci de Montréal
Hey Rodney, can you do Flight Fantasy Game’s Star Wars Armada? I’ve been wanting to purchase the game for a while now and I want to see a tutorial on how to play the game. Thanks a bunch!
Thanks for the interest! I talk a bit about that here: ruclips.net/video/EdtDuvIUa6A/видео.html&t=342
No prob Rodney! Glad you’re interested!
Although I am interested in this game, are legacy style games worth buying/playing if you don't have a consistent play group? My group is varied in game preference and availability. For example, I have some friends who prefer card based games and others who prefer competitive only games. I don't mind teaching new players rules and mechanics but does being thrust into the thick of things help or deter legacy gaming sessions?
I think that's definitely going to depend on your group. I've played through both the previous Legacy games, but I stuck to just one person I knew I could consistently play with, avoiding the complications of having to get 3 or 4 people together. For other folks, getting 3 or 4 would be easy.
Me: 2020 is a horrible year with endless pain.
(There's a new Pandemic Season coming out)
Me: 2020 was a pretty good year.
Sometimes it's the little things!
Haven’t watched this video yet, would like to know: (I’m currently in the middle of playing Pandemic Legacy: Season 1). Would I have anything spoiled by watching this How To Play of Season 0?
Nothing is spoiled here. For this game or any of the others.
i really love how they take the same basic mechanic and add tweaks to make it feel very different.
I was really impressed with the direction they took this one!
Hey just a quick question:
Just got the game and haven’t played it yet.
I’m wondering how long the game play is. Says about 1hr on the box but is that for the whole campaign or for each game (or month) that you play??
That time estimate is "per" game/month. Of course the actual time will depend on your group and how fast people play.
@@WatchItPlayed great that’s the answer I was hoping for.
Thanks!
Hi, I have a question I couldn't find answer anywhere, even after watching your video (doesn't mean you didn't do your job great as always :) ). Me and my friends were playing prologue a day ago, and we were in a tight position, were we couldn't decide is it right to do or not. The example of our last move, resulted in win, but 1 of 4 players didn't quite agree on what we did. The example is: we had a soviet team in East Berlin, and the "Medical Conference Coordinator" was on the turn with both quests not yet finished. We knew, of course 1 of the quests is in Novosibirsk, and the unknown city was Kiev. So as the actions of MCC we did: move soviet agents 3 city's away ending in Kiev, Acquire target action, then again moving the same soviet agents this time needed only 2 city's, ending in Novosibirsk, again Acquire target action. Resolving in finishing both objectives and winning the game. So, my question is, did we do it ok, or the MCCs ability don't allow that kind of movement?
Sometimes it's a little tricky through text to get a clear sense of what is being asked (especially if I don't have the game all set up in front of me), but what you're saying "sounds" okay - which part of it specifically were you wondering if you'd done wrong?
@@WatchItPlayed our last move. using 2 times the MCCs ability with the same agents. Since in rules it says you can do the same action more then once, so we figured that MCCs ability is his new 1 action, next to all basic that all have. If that is true, then you can use the ability to even move the same agents or other pawns for a total of 12 spaces.
If multiple incidents happen during drawing threat cards, should we draw an incident cards for each threat?
I'm not sure if I quite understand the question, but does this answer it? ruclips.net/video/ERdwqcEEHsQ/видео.html
Pretty excited for this one. Looks fun! Loved season 1.. season 2 was.. meh.
I'm pretty excited to play through this one. I think the changes seem like they'll lead to really exciting story opportunities.
Is the game okay even for two players? Or should I try to organize a larger group?
I always avoid trying to answer questions like that, because what I might enjoy as a 2 player game, someone else might not. I can tell you I played the Season 2 game all the way through as 2 player game and that didn't hurt the experience for me at all.
Hi Rondey. Is it possible that one player acquire target with one action leaving a token there and then another player in other turn moves the team there an complete the objective?
Sorry Mario, I'm not quite sure I understand the question (it could be due to having shot the video awhile ago). Do you have a time stamp for the section of the video you are referring to?
@@WatchItPlayed Sure minute 21:43 Action: acquire targets.
@@mariocrest Got it - yes, you can do that!
@@WatchItPlayed Awesome, thank you so much! 😁
How many cuts did you do to nail that throw and catch :D
Are you suggesting it wasn't on the first attempt?!?! *gasp*
Hey! Which Pandemic Legacy game should I start with? Season 1 or Season 0?
Hey Robbie, Pandemic Legacy 1 came out first, and 0 is more of a prequal, but you could play them in either order. I think you should go with the one that looks best to you.
Do you think you can play this as a 3 player game, even though there's only two "humans" present and we share control of the first player? I feel like you could do that with Season 1, but not sure with this?
I'm not sure. Haven't had a chance to play enough of the campaign to say.
After the campaign, I have played multiple games with my copy of Pandemic Lefacy with 4 characters but only myself controlling them. To me, it was no different to the multiplayer version.
What do the number at the bottom left of the player cards mean?
Hey Miguel - if I don't mention it in the video, then it's something that's likely related to the legacy elements that come later.
Thanks!
Hello again and greetings from Portugal,
(Question without any spoiler)
What is the influence or consequence of the “funding” ? (Not the budget - that I understood that we have to spent all before next coming month).
Resume: we are 3 players started January with 5 and succeeded in both missions; so we will have budget = 4 (3+1 because we completed objectives) and we spent this 4 in assets. But since we succeed both our funding for February will be 4 (5-1 because we succeed). This is my doubt : what will be the consequence of this “4” ? I read event cards can only be 4 ??? But I could not find that on the rulebook.... help please ...
Thank you very much :)
You'll find this explained here. ruclips.net/video/ERdwqcEEHsQ/видео.html It's also in the rules under the setup instructions.
@@WatchItPlayed Thank you !!! :-)
From my observation, It seems as if this game is meant to be played once only... Is there any way that the game can be repeated once the campaign is over like with other regular board games?
This is meant to be played through once. You'll play it several times, but once you finish the campaign, you can't replay this specific copy again.
When will we be able to play this game?
Looks like October-ish :) www.cardhaus.com/pandemic-legacy-season-0/
@Taylor Reiner yes, I also saw October 23rd on Z-Man games Spanish website.
Yes, October is the plan (barring shipping delays).
Played the first January game with my family today. 4 of us. Lost pretty hard. I took 3 "blown covers" in one horrible series of bouncing incidents. Revealed a handcuff symbol and got a negative sticker on my alias. That was just in the first game and we failed. Was it just really bad luck? Or do covers get entirely blown pretty quickly? Now the next attempt will be even harder because I have a handicap.
I can't really say what a normal outcome would be, as I don't have data on what player's usually find happens. Good luck in your next attempt!
Again, Rodney? I was looking at this game just yesterday...
Hmm... I’m starting to get a little creeped out. 😦
Draw your blinds next time!
There's a small RUclips glitch around the 30:00 mark.
I'm looking and not seeing it. Can you please provide a specific timestamp?
@@WatchItPlayed I refreshed and it's gone, must have been on my end. Sorry!
@@TemujinReads WHEW. I will now recover from my heart attack.
@@WatchItPlayed I got a (same?) glitch from 29:48-30:10; refreshing the page didn't help... but tried closing browser and trying again fixed it
@@andreamacpherson5506 Weird! Perhaps youtube is having a caching problem today.
I played game one and thought the game was too tough. Know I know that I was playing the game wrong in many ways.
Here's to your next attempt!
Too bad we never met in person. We would have been good friends.
Maybe so :)
I just can't tear up a game as part of playing it. I would have to just go with homebrew hacks to keep things together.
I used to think so too, but once you try it... the absolute commitment to a decision is pretty thrilling!
@@WatchItPlayed LOL sounds like you dealing "stuff"! Just try it once! lol
Your pronunciation of Novosibisk is not wrong, at all, when you put it in english context it sounds different from the russian but not wrong no need to apologise
Interesting. We are not really into Legacy games, because we like games that have playability. Spending money on a one time through is sort of not what we we like. We still have not even done the Rise of Ferris, because we wanted to do it with multiple players...
I do hear that concern sometimes. I think it comes down to how often you play your games. If you're playing every game in your collection 20+ times, I can see why this might feel limiting, but if you're getting fewer than that, consider that you'll get close to 15+ plays with this, at least! That said, not trying to sell you on it :) It's just that legacy games can offer quite a unique experience. I played the previous season as a 2 player game only, and I know you and your wife like playing 2 player (not that you need another game, Frank :) )
This seems similar to pandemic cthulhu
I haven't played that one!
НОВОСИБИРСК!
How did I do?
Watch It Played all is well, perfect pronunciation!) not sarcasm)
@@neunyvahin Woohoo!
Are you candian?
Yep.
Hey Rodney... am I the only one who raised an eyebrow at your pronunciation of "plague"?
I hope these jokes don't bother you, I'm french canadian and I'm sure my pronunciation of many words are weird.
You're the first to say it, I'm sure you're not the first to think it.
