Dyslexia is a funny thing. Throughout the video my brain substituted Passive for Prelude (both P words and the Prelude actions are passive in a sense). Additionally cities Provoke Outrage when destroyed as opposed to Revolting (the term I used that thematically fits my brains picture of events)
Love it! I'm not sure why you're calling Prelude actions passive actions. But just to be clear, you can gain and spend newly acquired resources during your prelude. As you said, you cannot spend newly acquired cards, and cannot regain resources you just spent in your prelude. 7's only seize the initiative if they are surpassing. (They have to be the same suit) One rule we were confused on is outraging before using your keys. You can outrage relics, therefore throwing all relics away, and then use your keys to still steal relics after that. It's an order of operations thing. .
Haha, I knew I was getting that term wrong while filming - I just could not grab the right word. I have dyslexia. So my brain will substitute words at times while reading or speaking. Even if I 100% know the right one. On top of that - it’s 5am in the video, so I’m sleepy :)
Just a slight tip, if you steal a guild card from another player by taking a battle action in your prelude phase, you can use the prelude action of that guild card in the same prelude phase. The restriction on using prelude effects on newly gained cards only applies to cards you've acquired directly from the court deck 😊
I feel like all of this is explained well in the rulebook. Errata seems like the wrong word for the document. They could call it further explaining rules, but not actually errata.
Surpassing with a “7” seizes the initiative, unless it was already seized. Seizing in this way is not optional (p.10). Surpass: Play an action card face up of the lead card’s suit. Its card number must be higher than the lead card. Which means 7s do not alwyas seize the initiative it must be the seven of the lead card's suit. You can only surpass with same suit.
*prelude not "passive". This is just one example. Please make sure you use the right terminology or you might cause more harm than help. Especially if you use a made up term that already is part of the fame's terminology but for something else. (you said relics allow you to secure a card that you have "dominance" on. Dominance is something else in this game so it's really confusing when you word it that way.)
You can’t raid if you have no ships left, but you can still raid if all buildings have been completely destroyed. That is a jarring design choice. Seems to me that if the city is destroyed you’re not going to be able to recover intact loot from it.
Great video as always Jess! Yeah when I learned that you could only build one ship per star port I was so sad lol. It really adds to the constrained feeling and makes everything feel more powerful when you can do multiple things at once when you lead, surpass or spend resources in prelude.
@@Quackalope Right!? Lol I see three or four pips and play it and then forget I only have two star ports and am like OH WAIT! NOOOOOOO-Err I mean. I'm building two ships and two star ports. U_U
When you can't get your game group together to play Arcs so you watch video's about Arcs to numb the pain of not being able to play Arcs. I CAN QUIT ANYTIME I SWEAR!!!! lol
Can someone help with one more rule? There are guild cards which allows to store resources on them. Is it unlimited number or single one? I'm talking about fuel cartel. Also i can store or i must store on it?
Nice video, thanks for explaining all this! Also, I don't think it's such a big deal that you confused Passive and Prelude, it's easy to understand what you mean. Maybe next time you can display some text correction in the video and people will complain less.
You probably understand the rule correctly, however when you explained "dice choice may vary," it came across a bit confusing/misleading. "The only limitation is having 6 [dice] of one color," and "my maximum amount of dice can be 18." You can only pick up ONE die per loyal ship in the system where you're attacking. Since you only get up to 15 ships, I don't think there's a way to use all 18 dice.
@@Quackalope I didn't even think of that, but yeah there are cards that let you roll extra, or even raid dice when you normally wouldn't be able to. Someone on here will likely comment with the exact scenario where you COULD use all 18 dice. For the newbs though, this would be an extremely rare situation. The attacker would have had to build all of their ships, move them all into one system, have some special cards, and use them to attack! That would be.....weird. You get as many dice as you have loyal ships where you plan on attacking. So two ships, two dice. The point in the video was that you can pick up a mixture in the color of dice up to the count of loyal ships. This makes it a statistics mini game. (edit: this part is in the vid too) My tip: blue skirmish to get their ships to be damaged before rolling red (if you can) because those intercept symbols can totally ruin your plans. If you can damage all the ships first, they can't intercept. So it takes a lot of the danger out of the red, and orange dice.
Solid!! We are 4 games in now. We added the leaders and lore expansion but not the campaign yet! Hope is to do the campaign on the channel by the end of the month.
Love that you go into your first games doing a blind read on the rulebook so you can identify the common mistakes others may have doing the same! One correction for ya though, you mention the "passive" actions in the third section of your video, but they are called "prelude" actions. Could trip some people up if they go digging for the wrong keyword! Edit: Also to add one more thing. You discuss cities "revolting" when they are destroyed, but this mechanic is called "provoking outrage" and "ransacking the court" for anyone needing to look up the mechanics
Yea, I got those terms mixed up. Thanks for the correction! I have dyslexia. So my brain will replace words when I read or speak at times. Even if I 100% know it :)
Really interesting video. I don't think I can purchase the game until September, so I don't know how I can be getting rules wrong now. This feels like a "Minority Report" situation.
Last video you complained that stealing a ressource with no available spot was a confusing rule (can you can throw it away?), and in this video you don't address it. What are we doing here.
I have a video going in detail through the errata. The answer to this at this point is assumed but not specifically stated. So, I didn’t add rules that I assumed to this list.
Yeah, it’s called dyslexia. My brain substitutes words that are similar. Clearly, I know the rules, have read in detail the rules, and played the game.
with all due respect, not something ive always extended to Jesse, i find his perseverance rather respectable. would have been super easy to sail off into the sunset and avoid comments like these forever. most of what he built was damaged, possibly permanently, and he continues to care for what is left. im not a fan of Jesse, sorry bud. but i am a fan of anyone looking adversity in the face and staring it down. for that, Jesse has earned my respect. i hope he continues and finds a piece of the space to make his own. for the record many of his comments have been repeated by others regarding the issue that caused all the turmoil. not going to try and stick up for Jesse, but for the sake of integrity these are the facts as i see them.

Missed rule about 1 ship per starport! Thank you! Next play will be different, can't wait to try it!

Yes, but easy for players to miss. This is not about the errata - these are rulebook rules that are easy to overlook.

@@HubertusBrandemburg dyslexia. I’ll do my best - but sometimes my brain will replace things. Part of the condition.
Using the different terms as the game doesn’t help following the rules.
Complaining about someone with dyslexia does not help solve the problem.
@@Quackalope you’re making a rules clarifications video dude, kind of has to be accurate
You can’t raid if you have no ships left, but you can still raid if all buildings have been completely destroyed. That is a jarring design choice. Seems to me that if the city is destroyed you’re not going to be able to recover intact loot from it.
I can see the logic both ways. Since you could have destroyed it in the process of the raid itself.
