    @milesmojave8223 3 года назад +1

    I purchased this game today and put it through its paces.
    A lot of the strategy comes from building up the final "reveal". You're trying to work up to a hand state where the cards' bonuses synergize with each other as much as possible.
    You can also do things like draining Luna of cards so that your opponent will have a difficult time taking the sovereign from you.
    Another thing we've found is that pushing to end game before your opponent is ready is ridiculously punishing in this game. You can place yourself in a position where it looks like you've still got three things to do to trigger end game, so your opponent is counting on three turns... Except you play a card that gives you two favor, then use your bonus to get the last helium you need, triggering end game while they're holding a dead hand... Or worse yet, their hand is full of penalties they were counting on resolving.
    Is it a deep game? No, admittedly it isn't. That's not to say it's a boring game... There's definitely more than enough here to keep board gamers of all experiences entertained and even playing with one another. Plus the price point makes it a very low risk buy.

    Rodney, thank your this video. I got this game a while back and am ready to star playing. This video was well done but I do have a question about the 4D painter card you were describing at around 8:12 on. You said that you would collect the bonus of the original deploy location. You played it at Jupiter, then moved it over to the yellow section. And then he said about picking it up and putting it in your hand if you want to., And then you collected the bonus from the yellow section. Wouldnt you have gotten it from Jupiter since that was your original deploy location? Just wondering, trying to get the details down. Thanks so much!

      Hi Eric, I think I see the point of confusion. You gain the bonus from the location that you collect a card from. ruclips.net/video/NqfSYn0-_00/видео.html
      The importance of understanding that Jupiter is where I originally deployed to in the example of 8:12, is so that it's clear that the column I take "from", can't be Jupiter (as that was the original column I deployed it "to"). Let me know if that clears it up.

      I would hope a scoring app was made for this game... It is similar to a game called Fantasy Realms which let's input your cards and calculate for you

    • @PurpleSmurfProds
      @PurpleSmurfProds 3 года назад

      The scoring won't be as complex as it looks. You're just adding up a few categories and most of the cards end up with numbers ending in 5 or 0, so they're easy to add up.

    • @WatchItPlayed
      @WatchItPlayed  3 года назад

      Hey, thanks for the interest. I tend to avoid giving personalized recommendations. What I like, someone else might not. What might be suitable for one new board game, might be too complex for another, but hopefully the video can help you make an assessment based on the person you're thinking of.

    Thanks Rodney - I wasn’t sure abt the game initially because I know nothing about the books but now I’m sold! I do have one question - say a card is worth 12 points and it also states 14 points if it’s with a blue card, is that an additional 14 points (so 26 pts in total)? Or just 14 pts in total?

    • @WatchItPlayed
      @WatchItPlayed  3 года назад +1

      That's an additional 14 points.

    The example in 9:35 of the block ability card: Rodney says after revealing it to perform the block effect it's returned to your hand. I'm assuming in the case of the card in the example that isn't true? Because it says after revealing it you must banish it for the effect to take place. So in order to block you would banish that blocking card. Is that correct?

    I know I'm quite late to this but I'm just now getting to play this game so i have to ask how do you actually end up withore than 7 cards because it seems to me that you can get them exchanged basically meaning u give(deploy) one and take one in return

    • @WatchItPlayed
      @WatchItPlayed  10 месяцев назад

      It's been long enough since I shot this, that I forget what some of the specific card effects are (but I'm guessing your answer lies in how certain combinations of effects create those situations).

    For end game scoring, can you use an orange card’s ability more than once? For example, I use an orange card to be named as “Darrow” and then later on I use that same orange card to be named as “pax” is this possible?

    • @WatchItPlayed
      @WatchItPlayed  2 года назад

      I'll repeat the answer Jamey gave you over on his site where you posted it there :) "You give each orange card one name, and it is that name throughout end-game scoring."
