"Now you might think that based on the effects, wounds should be called poison and poison should be called wound, but to that.. i have... to say... umm up next we have blessing and curses." 10/10 explanation, keep up the great work.
@@RageBadgerGaming I don't know, but I did. The poison adds a damage when you get attacked because every oz of strength you lose makes a poison more effective and the wound really makes sense because it's like a bleed damage.
I feel it’s a mistake which they didn’t bother to fix. When your wounded you’d be easier to hit and damage (been like this in other similar games too) and poison is ongoing damage as usual.
Has anyone made a house rule to essentially switch the description of poison/wound, and if so, did you have largely positive or negative effects? Will making this house rule in my play group break the game? lol.
the more i watch the instructional videos, the more and more i realize this game isn't too complicated. it's just filled with details. tons of details. and tokens, a lot of those too.
Pacing is a vital part of video that a lot of people in this space fail at. Yours is perfect! I loved the conciseness, but I was most impressed by your consistent pace.
Excellent video, as always! Some small notes/clarifications: 4:10 If an event card is put back in the deck, it is placed on the bottom of the deck, not shuffled in. Event decks are only shuffled when new cards are added. 17:15 Hazardous terrain deals half of trap damage, as shown on-screen. 20:21 You're correct that you won't receive any healing if you're poisoned, but if you just have a wound, you still receive the full heal amount.
Thanks bro, second time watching this after returning to Gloomhaven following an 8 month break. A superbly executed tutorial. Concise, funny and real! Thank you.
Just bought this on a whim and was blown away by the size of the box and contents. I instantly thought "What have I gotten myself into?" loool. I love fantasy games, so really wanted to try it out. Looking forward to watching this later with my husband and trying to figure out how to play. Thanks a lot.
i paused my solo campaign for a while and then the regret set in, this video was awesome to come back and do a quick skim through to make sure i remembered how to play still great stuff
The clearest intro walk through I've found so far. Thanks for a great job. It's made my first game much more sensible and less confusing. Erm, fun, too, I guess.
BeegtymeRawkstah yes, but it really depends on your playstile, before I got into dnd I thought there was too much diversity, but in this game it feels there’s too little customization. But I’ll tell you how it turns out.
Or at l east try it , I think the story arc part my be something newer players take back to d&d. "hey GM don't I get to pick a personal story goal in your campaign?"
We gave up playing Gloomhaven (around about the time you made this video) as it just seemed too hard (we got 4 missions in) and the rules too silly, with us having to constantly having to "House Rule". Turns out the manual is a heap of junk. So many things we read multiple times and came to different opinions to here. This video is a godsend, and I'm looking at the shelf at that huge box thinking it's time to revisit the Gloom.
Tainted Grail came out instead. But Jaws of the thingy arrived this weekend. We're going to finish off Tainted Grail and then start that one as a taster.
Sometimes. There are a few that I've managed to accomplish without even trying. Some of them have definitely led to us losing scenarios though, so you're not wrong.
I've managed to get the "keep everyone alive" goal twice as tinkerer, and those were scenarios where someone pushed too hard and exhausted and I was silently cursing for the rest of the scenario where I threw up my hands, said f' it, and went in crossbow a blazing for loot.
Okay, so I read the rule book, watched the SU&SD review and playthrough, tried Scenario 1 with the rule book in my hand (solo), watched THIS video and finally feel like I have grasped it.
Your channel is worthy of many many more subscribers! Your instructions are clear and to the point! My wife just got me Gloomhaven, so this was the first place I turned to for instructions, as I have enjoyed and learned a lot from your other learn-to-plays. Keep them coming!
Thank you so much! I certainly plan to keep making these. Next up is War of the Ring (next few weeks) and then Nemesis after that (considerably later).
You have a talent for explaining something and also your light touch of humor makes the video easy to get through. Thank you and I hope you have a great day!
Thank you so much for this. I bought gloomhaven as a Christmas present to myself and completely cocked up the first playthrough. I was using the monster action cards for both actions and attack modifiers! Also, was using the character specific modifiers instead of the standard 20. When I got to the penultimate card and it wasn't either the null or 2x card I knew I'd made a mistake. I did wonder why I hadn't drawn any negative modifiers! Watching this has made me realise I made another mistake too, I'd set up archers instead of guards in the first room. Going to have another go today. Now I've watched this, I'm confident I can get most of it right now. Thanks again!
Hey thanks! And don't worry about it, I messed up a bunch of stuff when I first started playing this game. If you're having trouble with any of the bookkeeping I would also recommend getting Gloomhaven Helper. It's a companion app that takes care of a lot of little background things so you don't have to.
When watching this video I was thinking that I want to be able to explain things in daily life with the brevity and clarity that you bring in this video.
I really feel this channel is right up there with WiP and SU&SD. Great content, well made, and fun to watch. I'm not a parthenon subscriber thingy person, but RTFM has my full moral support.
Very helpful! We just did a primer on common mistakes Gloomhaven makes but condensing all these rules in a shorter video is invaluable for new players! :)
Man, excellent video, I'm just finishing Jaws of the Lion with my kids and we are about to embark into this greater world that is Gloomhaven, hopefully we will put a dent to it's campaign before Frosthaven arrives. Thanks for the video.
This video just convinced me to the buy the game. I've been interested in it for a while, but because of the price point, and potential to be complicated, I've held off. After watching this though, I've decided to buy it. Job well done! Really great video, with a really good explanation of things.
Two small corrections. Wound, when healed, also heals HP. Poison is the only one that doesn’t let you heal while applied. Also, (and this was probably just you misspeaking) Disarm stops someone from taking any attack actions on their next turn, rather than just negating their next attack like you said. EDIT: Also, strictly, Personal Quests don’t have to be kept secret, and sometimes it’s almost impossible to complete it if you do. I prefer to keep it a secret, but only the battle goals are required to be.
I have watched this video a few times. Anytime it has been awhile since my group has gotten together I like to watch this as a refresher. I wish the instructions explained the game as well as this video (especially the white text he added in for clarification).
Holy hell, you basically spared me from reading 50+ pages of manual and teaching it to my friends. xD Thanks a lot. Amazing and easy tutorial to follow. ;)
My children bought Gloomhaven for me for Christmas, at my request. I came home today and my wife informed me that I had an hour to learn the game because we’d be playing it that evening with my daughter and son-in-law. Well, needless to say, it didn’t go well. There isn’t a realistic step-by-step walkthrough in the rule book, so We were trying to play while searching the book for instructions. After watching your video, I understand more of the game mechanics. I’ll play a solo game before I invite others to join. Thank you for this informative video.
Thank you guys for these videos! My boyfriend plays tabletop every week and these videos help me understand what the hell he is saying when he calls and tells me about his game night.
@@RTFM I purchased it 2 weeks ago. We finally cracked it open yesterday and were amazed at all of the content . We tried reading our way through but the book had us bouncing back and forth. So we found your channel and it helped immediately.
Awesome video. Thanks for the tutorial. I'm seeing this as a Legacy analog edition of Angband, with the narrative content of a boardgame like Eldritch Horror or Betrayal. I'm excited to give it a try now, especially since I see that the mechanics are mostly things I've seen before in TTRPGs, or Mechs vs. Minions. Keep up the awesome production work. This video was really easy to follow and well edited. Good on ya!
Like most, very well done and thought out. appreciate the occasional humor added:-) I dont worry about speed as can pause and back up so appreciate the faster pace. great video! thanks
Thank you so much for this video, an amazing job explaining one of the most complex boardgames (of those intended for massmarket I mean)! Highly appreciated!
Thank you very much for this video! It's really well done, and also one of the few reasons why I purchased Gloomhaven. I just recently got my copy, and I'm reading the rules while also watching the video multiple times, just to learn it easier. My friend and I will start playing this soon. Thanks again for the video.
Thank you so much! If you're going to buy it on Amazon, feel free to use the affiliate link in the description box for this video. It kicks a couple bucks my way at no cost to you.
I found this after listening to tgib, and you mentioned doing a walkthrough. Thank you. You just might have saved the most expensive paperweight I have ever owned.
Thank you for a great video. I have read the book and your video cleared up the confusion and I ready to tackle the ocean of chits and markers to start climbing the mountain of cardboard and start to play the game.
This video helped fill in some questions I still have about game. We just got it have barley scratched the surface. Your video will help us get deeper. Thanks for posting.
Woohoo! Glad I found your excellent instructions. We already played a bit the last 2 days and you already cleared up a few mistakes we were making lol Thanks for taking the time to make this thorough yet easy to follow video!
At first, I agreed that they should have switched the names for the wound and poison effects. However, on further though I think it makes sense. When you’re wounded you’re most likely bleeding, causing you to lose health each turn - while poison makes you nauseous and weak, making it harder to defend yourself and react quickly (hence the +1 to attacks against you).
Hey 👋🏼 just wanted to say thanks for the awesome content, love your channel. I just want every game released to pay you to make a ‘how to play’. 👊🏼 I’ve already bought three of the games I’ve seen in your vids and now I’m ordering Gloomhaven!
@@RTFM I do have a boardgame group, they enjoy simpler/shorter games more, though. Also, my money is waiting the Brazilian version of Twilight Imperium 4. You guys made me save the money for this game.
I used this storage solution and purchased the 5" x 7" photo cases and I believe the ones shown in the video are actually the 4" x 6" ones. The 5" x 7" cases I have fits the sealed tuck box and miniature figurine box.
Great video, explained a LOT of things I misunderstood. Eg: Had no idea my Warlord Tyrant bear could act as summon then be commanded. (Our first game we decided to just pick characters randomly and play them on first mission)
"Now you might think that based on the effects, wounds should be called poison and poison should be called wound, but to that.. i have... to say... umm up next we have blessing and curses." 10/10 explanation, keep up the great work.
I mean, how many people found that intuitive the way it is?
@@RageBadgerGaming I don't know, but I did. The poison adds a damage when you get attacked because every oz of strength you lose makes a poison more effective and the wound really makes sense because it's like a bleed damage.
@@snufkin4568 I mean it's perfectly fine but I kinda feel like wounds tend to be exacerbated when struck and poison slowly saps the life out of you.
I feel it’s a mistake which they didn’t bother to fix. When your wounded you’d be easier to hit and damage (been like this in other similar games too) and poison is ongoing damage as usual.

Been playing it on Table Top Simulator. I think we spent more time learning how to use TTS than we did Gloomhaven itself once we got going.
And stickers...lots of stickers

Some small notes/clarifications:
4:10 If an event card is put back in the deck, it is placed on the bottom of the deck, not shuffled in. Event decks are only shuffled when new cards are added.
17:15 Hazardous terrain deals half of trap damage, as shown on-screen.
20:21 You're correct that you won't receive any healing if you're poisoned, but if you just have a wound, you still receive the full heal amount.
Ooh, yeah those are important. Thanks for the spot.

This was a great introduction to Gloomhaven. I like how clear and to the point you are with instructions
Aw, thanks!
@@RTFM you are amazing man my wife and i picked this up and this one guide allowed an idiot like myself to play this game....
It is in the name of the channel!
I hadn't thought it possible to describe something this clearly this well. A masterclass in both design and execution
Wow, thank you so much!
That was one of the most concise, informative and interesting play walkthroughs. I'm so excited to play this game.Well done and thank you.

Looking forward to watching this later with my husband and trying to figure out how to play. Thanks a lot.
It's certainly a big boy, but it's worth the time you put into it (in my opinion at least). Hope y'all like it!

"Move guy kill thing get stuff repeat." There are so many murder hobos playing D&D who need to play this instead.

Would like to know that, too.
Tainted Grail came out instead. But Jaws of the thingy arrived this weekend. We're going to finish off Tainted Grail and then start that one as a taster.
My group calls the battle goals "Bad Idea Cards". Finishing them almost always seems to require you do some kind of bad idea at some point.
Sometimes. There are a few that I've managed to accomplish without even trying. Some of them have definitely led to us losing scenarios though, so you're not wrong.
I've managed to get the "keep everyone alive" goal twice as tinkerer, and those were scenarios where someone pushed too hard and exhausted and I was silently cursing for the rest of the scenario where I threw up my hands, said f' it, and went in crossbow a blazing for loot.
Oh no! Everybody takes the healer for granted, but at least the Tinkerer is pretty good at getting XP and loot.
Okay, so I read the rule book, watched the SU&SD review and playthrough, tried Scenario 1 with the rule book in my hand (solo), watched THIS video and finally feel like I have grasped it.
Haha, yeah it can definitely feel like that at the start. I promise that most things will get a lot easier after playing a few missions.

Great video, explained a LOT of things I misunderstood. Eg: Had no idea my Warlord Tyrant bear could act as summon then be commanded. (Our first game we decided to just pick characters randomly and play them on first mission)
There's so much in this game, don't worry about missing stuff. I had to relearn so many things in the process of making this video.
This game is insane! So many rules and so much detail
There are many board games that make this look like snap.
Pleasantly surprised that this wasn't boring. Thanks!
That's what I'm going for!
