Thanks for having our backs when Rodney leaves us out in the cold, Paula!
Yeah, when Rodney breaks my heart Paula is there to put it back together!
I'm here for you!
🎉
This is like a personalized video. I am mostly a solo player and my copy gets here today. Thank you Paula!
We hope you have a great time playing!
That woman was so happy ;-; I feel for her. Great video! Lots of laughs and information for my own solo play. Thank you so much!
At 34:07, I think you missed collecting a power for playing Anna, which means you saved another map token for the end of the game, and adding that to the other points you would've gotten from the instances in the other comments, you definitely won this game and your celebration is warranted! :D
(so yes nobody tell the woman in this video :D)
That ending was EPIC. Thanks Paula. Great play.
So glad you enjoyed!
Perfect timing! I just watched Rodney's video and was left cold and alone holding the Automa rulebook...
Paula to the rescue!
Thanks Paula,always love watching you and Rodney.
This makes it way easier for me to teach the guys.
As i am sure when they the ironclad box on my shelf this is gonna hit the table.
Love from the Netherlands
So glad you enjoyed. Have a great time playing! -Rodney
The editing at the end was hilarious. Awesome playthrough.
Thanks John - really glad you enjoyed!
Great playthrough, Paula! Always remember not to let the Automa get too far ahead in any scoring category. And I concur with Old Kingtoes, the bear’s name is pronounced Voy-tek. It’s a common first name in Eastern Europe and Russia.
Paula truly has the best playthroughs. Just enough exposition, clear explanation of rules as well as her motivations and the automa motivation, never terribly verbose.
I also appreciate that rules mistakes are exceedingly rare and always caught in post.
Best part is her delightful attention to detail- nobody cosplays a boardgame like her! ❤
Thanks for the very kind words - that really means a lot!
Paula! Great playthrough, really helped me get going and now I love playing Expeditions solo! I laughed so hard at your ending though 😂 you were so happy!
So glad you've been enjoying it too :)
I love the enthusiasms of the woman that thought she had won. What a sad story 🙂
@PaulaDeming, another entertaining and informative video, thank you :-) Like many others, I played many many solo games during Covid times, and grew to appreciate the solo engine work done by Morten Pedersen and his Automa Factory. The high quality of.Morten’s work is reflected in the equally high quality of your video :-)
Thanks so much John - clever solo rules can really enhance a game! -Rodney
Yay, another table for 1 video! 🥳🎉
Thanks for joining for another one!
I normally don’t watch video tutorials, but I just bought the game and wasn’t in the mood to read through the rules. So you made it so I could play my new game with just a video. Also, the ending was 😂. Thanks much.
Stupendous videos. You moved the blue mech only one space late in game. You counted your space as one. It did not change game as they would not have gotten to your end spaces. But again amazing video. Who needs a rule book?
Thanks for covering the solo mode! I’m so sorry you didn’t actually win 😢 but nice work, you’ll get them next time! I’m so excited to play this now. SM always has some of the easiest to run solo modes around, and this looks no different. Awesome thematic outfit by the way! Haha
Really enjoyed - hope you have a good time playing solo!
32:44 should only allow you to gain one of the benefits on an adjacent location (i.e., one of its icons), so you could either draw from the deck or rescue, but not both. I made this mistake a few times, on my first couple playthroughs before I caught it, too. Thanks so much for this awesome playthrough! Really great to see others enjoying solo play on these types of games!
Good catch!
One for the Solo crowd!!! Thanks, Paula, you rock!
So glad you enjoyed!
Love these play-throughs, and great costume!
thank you!
Nicely presented Paula and you make it fun to watch and learn, felt bad at the end but next time I’m sure you will nail automa
Thanks for the encouragement - glad you enjoyed :)
Perfect for those on the fence. I won't spoil the humour at the beginning :) What followed next was superb for helping me make a buying decision-and I won't spoil that either!
Thanks for the kind words!
What a great and charming playthrough, Paula. Thanks a lot!

So glad you enjoyed :)
This is a great playthrough. I had no idea there were solo playthroughs on Watch it Played. Watching this makes the game much less intimidating. I love the beginning where you start with the end of Rodney’s video. Take that Rodney, no discovering on our own this time…muah ha ha ha
You'll find a playlist for Table For 1 on the channel if you're interested in seeing more solo plays here!
@@WatchItPlayed thanks I found it. Always looking for good solo plays.
So, I think you may have **actually** tied, because when you took your last gather action, you upgraded, but there is also a purple worker AND a coin on the tile not separated by a line. So you would have also had 76.
ahhh I think you might be right!!
@@PaulaDeming I think also on the turn before the end, you gathered to do your last boast, but you didn't take the copy an adjacent gather action, which would have gotten you yet another coin! I think there was also a handful of times you missed gaining guile, power, or card draws. So you deserve the win!
I really enjoyed the ending. Hugs Paula, it wasn't meant to be, but you were very close.
I bare-ly noticed the teddy mascot. Glad you pointed it out.
Oh my goodness. That was a tough loss! So close! Hummm.... should I say it was grizzly? Nah, probably not. :-)
Thanks for sharing.
We appreciate you check ing it out :)
Wonderful playthrough! I really enjoy the solo mode for this one. Just wish it was less of a table hog because i can't leave it set up to play a little at a time.
argh jealous, i just came here to comment for interaction with the video
i want to go in as blind as possible to this, it looks really good, can't wait for my preorder to show up
Hopefully you'll have it in hand soon!
When you Sweep you can Sweep all of the five face up cards if you want. Also when you were moving to the Lair you should had gone to the map token and get it since it is far more useful to you. Also as you pointed out that you could do both actions when you boosted you miss that once before as well. You needed a few more cards so when solo playing spent a bit more time in the south and get those cards. Sure they go into your action area but when you refresh you will have a few more options available.
Haha oh wow that ending! The video was great anyway but it was worth watching for that dramatic turn alone 😂
Very glad you enjoyed - thanks for watching :)
Great video! Love seeing solo appreciation! One quick note: i believe at 32:47 you're only supposed to do *one* adjacent action, not both?
Good catch - you're exactly right!
It FEELS expensive to refresh but you have to get those cards back if you're going to be able to use them. The key is timing it to refresh when you don't have a better option available.
very true
I played my very first solo match yesterday, against Level 1. Lost with 2 points. But I really like the automa implementation!
Glad you enjoyed getting a chance to try this solo as well!
That ending lol. Great playthrough
So glad you enjoyed :)
Looks like fun. Wojtek (VOI-TEK) is a famous bear here in Scotland (we have a statue dedicated to the hairy hero in Edinburgh) and well worth a google if you've never heard of him.
Thanks for the info and the pronunciation guide! I'll look him up!
@@PaulaDeming It is a very safe bet to always pronounce the J as Y (as in "yes") when dealing with Slavic names and places. Especially southern/eastern ones. Can't say for central Europe though but I'd again bet on the Y :)
Great video, helped me a lot. Only bit of end scoring I struggled to understand is how you score melded items?
These are treated the same way as the multiplayer game (which means they have no end scoring rules), they do give you benefits while playing though. You'll find that covered in the full tutorial (which also has a table of contents, so you can go right to the section you're curious about, if that helps). -Rodney
At 44:36 wouldn’t you been able to gather both actions since there isn’t a slash? Don’t know if that would have changed much though!
Sure would have!
Just watched and loved it…. I think on your last gather action (tile 17) you didn’t gather all the actions… that would have given you and extra coin/point 😢😂
Hello, did not read all the comments, but i asume that you can use benefit from vanqushing only if you would use a companion, not from the other cards or effects. This is minor issue. Anyway, very greatfull for the playthrough, was enjoed!
I'm not sure if I quite follow the question, but we have a time stamped full tutorial here, so you might be able to find your specific question addressed there: ruclips.net/video/YyLBa5DXi1w/видео.html -Rodney
Good work on the pronunciation :).
Hi Paula, at @21:54 should you gain that solved quest core value or is it just previous ones?
I'm not quite sure what you're asking (or referring to by "or just previous ones"). If it helps you may want to refer to the tutorial video here: ruclips.net/video/YyLBa5DXi1w/видео.html
-Rodney
@@WatchItPlayed i'm sorry, i meant when you solve a quest you should gain that solved quest core value and also the value from previous solved ones or just the value from the ones already solved on your player board, @21:54 Paula didnt gain the core value of the quest solved. Thanks
@@JRTG85 It's been a little while since I shot the tutorial, so I'm not sure I have the answer off the top of my head, but does this address what you're asking about? ruclips.net/video/YyLBa5DXi1w/видео.htmlfeature=shared&t=1245
May I say, what an excellent, valid, and wholly untarnished victory of the sort with which I, as a fellow gamer of excellence, am all too well acquainted. :')
Your unquestioning support is greatly appreciated ;)
Hey Paula you say in this Video, ( 35:00 ) when ever you solve a quest you gain the core power of all the saved questcards. Where can I find this in the rulebook ?
I don't have the rule book at the ready, but the full tutorial, which includes rules like this, is here: ruclips.net/video/YyLBa5DXi1w/видео.html - you may wish to watch through this if you're wanting to confirm how the game is played.
It says it on the character card itself, actually! Other cards which have the “Solve” ability don’t include this text and therefore wouldn’t provide the additional value.
@@JefferVescent357 thanks a lot for your Feedback.
48:47 can you cover move and take only gather and dont play cards if you dont have them ? is this legal? you don't need to refresh first ?
According to the rules: "If you take actions, you must perform all exposed actions that you are able to".
@@WatchItPlayed im confused.
the Polish manual states that the player must perform the action from exposed fields
@@DzikJestDziki89 Keep in mind that rule book translations are not always accurate, and I can't account for that, but I can tell you that the way this was played here is correct, as are the English rules. You MUST perform the exposed fields "if you can". In this case, since Paula had not card to play, she couldn't, and therefore, didn't have to. Hope that helps!
@@WatchItPlayed Thank you very much 👍
very good job with this video, I will definitely play solo.
I'm a little late to the party but your very last action was to move and gather (1:03:58). I can't see properly but there isn't a slash there, right? On space 17? So you didn't give yourself that one coin which if anything would tie you with the Automa. Apologies if this was pointed out before. Don't know what happens if you tie with the Automa, though. In all honesty I think you did win, because you probably forgot to give yourself a coin or two here and there during the gameplay. Count it up as a win in your books.
For years I have been enjoying Rodney‘s tutorials… but it was always somewhat soul-destroying when he concluded the video with the phrase: „There’s also a full solo-mode included - but I‘ll leave that for you to discover all on your own.“
So, I am delighted Paula - and Wojtek - have come to the rescue and saved us from years of serious neglect by the box-flipping, multi-player-biased overlord.
Ironclad-Edition-with-metal-coins… we have a game-night date!
So glad you're enjoying finally being able to get some of that solo game love here on the channel :)
