    Corrections:
    When talking about fire/malfunction tokens, I say that if you put the eighth token out, the ship explodes. I meant to say that it explodes if you're instructed to place a token when you already have all eight on the board. (Thanks to radiocolumbus for pointing that out)
    I forgot to mention that once the self-destruct track reaches the 3 space, it can no longer be stopped. (Thanks to Jeff M for reminding me)
    While I did suggest you follow the evacuation instructions, I probably should have shown that part of this involved rolling a noise die. (Thanks to KatoGrinsihara for suggesting this)
    If you need to place a ninth adult intruder, you only remove the adults that aren't in combat. I neglected to mention this and accidentally showed an adult disappearing when it shouldn't have. (Thanks to pquiroz for pointing this out)
    I forgot to mention that when melee attacking, before rolling the die, draw a contamination card and add it to your discard pile. (Thanks to Jesentra for spotting that one)
    During bag development, if you draw an adult token, put it back in the bag before rolling for noise. (Another thanks to Jeff M)

    Little thematic detail that sets Nemesis apart from other games : the noise tokens do not represent the noise you make but the noises you hear coming from the corridors. Which explains why a second one in a corridor would in a way confirm that the noise you heard was actually an intruder.

      @@frostyz8091If you’re walking around carefully it’s easier for you to pinpoint the exact location the sound is coming from, which is why you still put down a noise token, but YOU decide where it goes. If it were the noise you make, careful movement would require no token at all.
      Trust me, I’ve thought this through and it makes much more sense this way.

      A bit crazy but this simple little bit of information just made the game more enjoyable. I've just started playing but I was looking at it as my noise. It has added much better tension. An uncontrollable intruder roaming as opposed to it being your mistake.

    2:20 little but not unimportant detail; you can only do 2 actions per turn, but that doesnt mean you only do 2 actions before the event/intruder turn. After everyone at the table did 2 actions, player 1 can actually do actions again, going around the table again. If everyone passes or simply has no cards left, the event phase happens. Ofcourse this makes you more vulnerable to surprise attacks.

    • @RTFM

    I played this game 2 times so far (had such a great time with it, first board game in 15 years, i am a big Aliens fan btw) and i have a question. When you attack a xeno, adult for example, you roll the red dice and and if you hit you draw a intruder card and compare the dealed damage with the healthpoints. My question now is, do you always draw a new intruder card for each attack you deal on the xeno or does the card from the first attack stay?
    I lean towards drawing every attack a new card, i only question the whole procedure because it is often *incredibly* hard to kill xeno and i want to be sure.

      @RTFM  2 года назад

      You've got it right. Every time you attack it (or it gets damaged in any way) you draw a new card. It is a little difficult at times to kill the intruders, especially if you don't have good guns, but that's kinda the point.

    12:52 I thought that tools or fix action only changes the status but you can't look at the tiles. If you can look at the tiles before deciding what to do, then I feel like checking the engine status doesn't really do much since it cost 2 cards.

    • @RTFM
      @RTFM  Год назад +1

      No, you get to look at the status before changing/not changing it. There are a few good reasons to check. Mainly if you don't have tools/repair cards, or want to make you're not wasting them, checking first can be useful. The other thing is if someone else used a tools/repair card, you can double check their work to see if they're telling the truth.

    Very nice video! Just one question a bit off topic: Is it possible to mix up languages with characters (Base game language A and medic language B)? This should only be possible if you don't mix character cards with other cards (Example: Not working if I have event cards with different languages because then I know if the next event is language A or B -> Slight advantage). Thanks in advance!

    • @RTFM

      It is actually noise you detect, not make (it's not Clank!). The manual says as much (pg. 15: "Noises echo throughout the Nemesis decks…sometimes from the ship‘s machinery, but sometimes from Intruders." but it is easily missed and a common mistake that doesn't affect gameplay.

  •  7 месяцев назад

    I need some clarification:
    What should I do with "Intruder Atack" card after I dealt some damage, but it wasn't enough to kill it? Should I shuffle the card back to the deck and after next attack draw a new one, or does that card stays with the intruder until it is killed or it retreats through a technical corridor?

    • @RTFM

      The number on the card is only relevant for the current attack. After that you'll discard the card and, if the intruder gets attacked again, you'll draw a new card.

    2nd action - move to another room

    I found a little error in the rules. After you pass, you discard any cards you want and then that player phase ends. However there is a 2nd player phase where you can only use the cards you have left from the previous player phase and you pass like in the 1st. Then the event stage occurs.

Players keep preforming 2 actions cycles until everyone has passed, only then do you start the event phase. So I was wrong, there is no 2nd player phase but it’s still all combined in one player phase.

    The attack/combat system is not clear to me.
    For ex. when in the first round in a player phase deal 2 dmg then I draw a in IA car d with 3 = the monster stays alive.
    When my actions depleted the combat continues in the next phase. I guess. I deal for ex. 2 more dmg. but if I draw a IA card with 5 or 6 it will still be alive?
    But when I draw and IA card with only 2 it means even the dmg. in previous phase would be enough but for attack I have to waste ammo to have this card?
    Is this correct...?

    • @RTFM

      Basically, yes. The card tells you how well it resists the damage it has taken, so it could be that you'll draw a high number one time and a low number the next.
