  • Everyone knows Holochess; the game that taught us to let the Wookiee win. Where does it come from? How do you play it? Does it exist in real life? I answer all of these questions here.

    They should turn this into a board game, so more people can play this. It's pretty cool

      Tristan Stout it’s 50 dollars. With 8 miniatures and a full wooden board as well as can double up as a game of checkers!

    Droids don't pull the arms out of people's sockets when they lose. Wookiees are known to do that.

    What are the algorithms for kills, counter-kills, pushes, and counter-pushes (based off of defensive and offensive scores)?

    • @joeyprice301
      @joeyprice301 7 лет назад +6

      Jonathan Alexander The attackers and defenders have a score for (you guessed it)attack and defense, this number is used to determine how many rolls of the the die you get, then you add how much you got, if the attacker has a number 7 or higher than the defender then its a kill, if its 6 or lower its a push, if the defender has a number 7 or higher than attacker then its a counter kill and if its 6 or lower its a counter push.

  • @1986BNick
    @1986BNick Год назад

    I'm guessing that there is a version where the piece just moves like a regular pawn and knight along with that rook. Only one drop and one strike and it's more of one of those best out of eight or ten. Either way? Even a stripped down to bare minimum version of this game compared to point damage is probably pretty logical.

    I have seen your video where you talk about how much you hate a Han Solo that's not played by Harrison Ford. I agree with that but if I were to make a young Han Solo movie, I would borrow footage from the Original Trilogy and edit it and modify it, like change the location, and hire a professional voice actor for the lines, but also have some lines recorded for the originals by Harrison Ford, and make that all into a movie, that way, the movie can star Harrison Ford. What do you think of that idea?

    So it's 2d10 + bonus die + base = results
    Bonus die is

    5-6 base d6
    3-4 base d8
    2 base d10
    Attack result minus Defense rolls
    +7 or more results in kill
    +6-1 = push
    0 = counter push
    -1 - 6 = counter push
    -7 or more = counter kill
