Teacher: "How do you write 4,000 in Roman numerals?"
Me: (thinking) "Mmmm"
Teacher: "Well done!"
Ha!
What made Caesar great was his dressing...
Ha!
I really liked Falling Sky. The COIN games are no more difficult to learn/play than this one. However, they are very different mechanically. This plays a lot like Washington's War. If you like that one you will most likely enjoy Caesar: Rome vs. Gaul
I did like Washington's War. Thanks!
At soccer Caesar tried to score against France but it was an own gaul.
Ha!
As a French I appreciate a lot !
@@GB-333 Ha!
I'm collecting this game from the post office today. Thanks for whetting my appetite!
I think you'll get a kick out of it .
Roman Republic not Roman Empire... 'yet'.
;) The time of Empire was soon upon them though!
And yes i'm being a nitpicker here!
Awesome review! :)
Thank you, sir.
Great opening joke
Danke!
I just bought this game a couple days ago.
I hope you enjoy it.
Doctor Carlson, you had a lot of *Gaul* posting this video.
Ha!
I have this unopened on my shelf and am now inspired to take it down and break it open. (Quick question -- Is there a spot on the map for the fortified camps of Totorum, Aquarium, Laudanum, and Compendium; or do the Gauls have a Getafix card giving them magic potion? )
Ha!
Why didn’t the Roman emperors wife play hide and seek?
Because Julius Caesar
Ha!
How do you like those big cards? Thought that was an interesting touch.
Really liked them quite a bit. Hope to see more of them.
Should try Crusade & Revolution
Is that from Compass Games? I'd really like to try some of their games, but they do not offer review copies and I am too poor to buy any right now. Maybe one day.
@@TheDiscriminatingGamer yes, Compass. I see...there is a Vassal version you could explore.
Have you tried the Coin game Falling Sky's the Gallic Revolt against Caesar? And if so how does it compare?
I haven’t played that one. To be honest, I’m a little intimidated by COIN. I need to bite the bullet and play one.
@@TheDiscriminatingGamer You would love it! Some COIN iterations are more complex than others, but once you get the core concepts down, you can jump from one to another without too much difficulty.
@@ToolsWithAdrius Yeah. I'll have to hit it!
Do you miss the tactical battle card system from Hannibal in this one?
I do. I’m a big fan of that system (see my recent review for Napoleon Returns 1815).
Smells complicated.... minutiae? Mmmm
I'd say it's mid-level complexity for such a game. Not too bad, but I think some things could have been simplified a bit.
