    I’m WAY late to this video, but I also passed on Pamir 2ed the first time, so I guess that makes sense. For what it’s worth, nearly a year out from the release of this video, not only is this an awesome feature to help me pass the time now that I’ve pledged for the second print run, but it was an AMAZING way to pass the wee hours in the night holding my new son when momma was asleep and he was fussy unless somebody was cuddling him. So double-thanks guys (and yes, I fully realize that I’m most likely speaking into an empty, echoey chamber at this point, but the thanks remains).

    Discovered Pax Pamir this year and after playing my first game with a player count of five, I totally fell in love with that game. So right now, this is my most favorite played game in 2023 and I some kind of study that game to get into all the depth of it. And there´s a lot of depth in it, even if it´s technically very simple.
    So I appreciate that "over" explaining Edward mentions at 2:17:28 and love every second of this video. Thank you very much.

    Having now played this a few times, there's something about it that really appeals!
    I'm not good at it - and i like to think I'm really good at some games - and I have a (bad) habit of dislikling games I'm not good at, but there's still something about the interactive, ever-changing gameplay in this one that fascinates me.
    Such a great, unique design & theme, and it's now one of my faves, thank you!

    Coming back to this video after I first bought (and fell in love with) Pax Pamir 2nd Ed--my GOTY in 2019. I find Cole's narrative here so compelling. Still a 10/10 game for me.

    I think a visual to make it easier to summarize influence state would be beneficial, but otherwise this looks like I won't be regretting the purchase.

    Getting this to the table for 4 players next week, this was a great help to get my "first game nerves" out of the way. Smooth teach, and a nice mix of play and table banter. I'm optimistic this one will be in regular rotation, with Root and the COIN stuff. Cheers!

    This video made me want to try this game out, which I did just last night (solo)! I'm pretty new to heavier games, with my heaviest so far being base Root (just a 2-player game) and the first 2 tutorial scenarios of Jaws of the Lion. I wasn't sure if I could really tackle a game like Pamir, but Cole's design is so so smooth. I'm 1000% a fan now! (of him and this channel)

    Pax Pamir is one of my all time favourite games but it can be very polarizing to a game group. We've had great difficulties getting this to the board since some players love it and some hate it, same happened with Sidereal Confluence. I'm very hopeful that the 2nd edition could remedy this.

    Just purchased the game from Sierra Madre. Now I have to find 2 or 3 players who can get into these rules. I love the theme, and whilst there seems a fair amount of downtime, the player interaction in strategies seems very good.

    Nice to see a group of friends playing.
    I'm halfway through the game and I have to think about it: you ignored the actions in the boxes at the bottom of the card. Edward, for example, could have taken the Russian Patriots from the market for free.

  • @andrethannhauser6302
    @andrethannhauser6302 2 года назад

    Yesterday, I was just one action or coin or army/road close from winning the game with 5 pts on the very first dominance check....me being with the British while my two opponents both were with the Afghans.
    After that close miss, it all break together and actually developped to a quite frustrating game....with be not being able to do ANYTHING.
    Even a late game switch to Russian (potential to get 10pts and win on the last dominance check) was too late.
    The whole game I wasn't able to buy a single non Afghan leader card....so I wasnt even able to build and being stuck with a 3 card tableau.
    The theme and mechanisms are great and tense, but I'm not sure if I ever want to play a 3-player-match again seing the bad potential to have a 2 vs 1 the WHOLE game.
    Maybe it was my fault (because of the starting cards all three of us chose Afghan as starting loyalty) to switch to British directly on turn one....(and my opponents told me that was quite courageous and brilliant)....but I didnt want a boring first game ever with all three players being loyal to the same faction.
