Finally, confirmation that whoever wins the trick starts the next round. I don't know if I missed it multiple times, but I couldn't find clarification anywhere. Thanks!
Hey Dylann, That’s a pretty slick video (first “how to” I’ve watched) and I owe you and Carlos my thanks. Found you guys because of the excellent Marvel Champions content and just got hooked to your channel Been watching and enjoying the top 50 list videos and bought the Crew on your recommendation (passed on deep sea for now as I’m trying to drag the family kicking and screaming into this hobby). So thank you. I really enjoy a lot of the content you guys put out there and the production is very good (was especially impressed with this) Keep up the amazing work and wishing you all the best for 2022 (would love to see a clip of the snowy scenes you have mentioned a couple of times) (Love from drizzly England)
Thanks so much for the thoughtful comment, Dan! I'm so glad to hear that you picked up The Crew and I hope your family really enjoys it. It's always amazing to hear from fans from different countries. I have family in Portugal so I'm not wholly unfamiliar with England, but haven't yet been myself! I hope you have a great new year! -Dylann
@@AllYouCanBoard as a Brit searching for any ounce of sun, I have been fortunate to visit the Algarve a couple of times. Beautiful part of the world and I have fond memories of family holidays there. Never been to Canada and it must be quite a different climate, but I’m sure you’re used to it now. Sounds like you’ve lived there all your lives
Thank you for the video tutorial! If anyone is really short on time, here's the basic game play described in exactly 100 words: Complete each mission by helping each player acquire specific assigned cards or “tasks” (four colors X numbered 1 through 9) by winning tricks containing assigned task. All “playing cards” are dealt to players. Deal and place smaller “task cards” in center. Players circle to pick tasks. Player with Black4 trump card (1 of 4 trumps) picks and plays first card. Players can “radio” once per mission to reveal one card and reveal as highest or lowest card of that color, or only card of that color. The number of tasks, player-task assignments, task sequence, and radio access vary by mission.
Thanks for watching! So the difference is that with 1,2,3 - those literally have to be the first, second and third tasks you complete. However with the arrows, the > arrow doesn't actually have to be the first task you complete, it just needs to be completed before >> arrow task. Likewise the >> needs to be completed after the > and before the >>> task but it doesn't have to be the second task you complete, for instance if there are other numbered tasks in the mission. Similar, but different! Hope that helps!
I have this but haven’t played it yet. I really don’t understand what benefit there is to the communication token. Maybe I have to play it few times to understand it.
@2:58 "you draw a task card", but in the rules on page 9, it says "Tom is the commander and will be first to CHOOSE one of the task cards. So is it random? or deliberate?
Got this game for Christmas and want to play it badly, but just keep getting confused as I go through the rules. So what is that reminder card for? What is it to remind you or others of?
The reminder card is just a way to remind everyone around the table that you have a card faceup on the table when you've used your communication token. Sometimes people can just look at your hand and assume "oh they have 2 cards left" and forge they technically have 3 in their hand because the one on the table is still considered in their hand. So it's just a signal for that to all players!
If you won the trick with the pink 9 then yes you would immediately lose. If you mean you had the pink 9 in your hand still, well there are some ways your friend can get that from you. Thanks for watching!
@@AllYouCanBoard Hello, and thank you for explaining this game in the clearest and best way that my 10 yr understood it! :) Other videos we watched were more confusing or left some stuff out. I just have a question lets say my son has the task to win the pink 9... but I have it... can I use the pink 9 and put it down with the communication token so my kids know that I have it so I can hint to them, look I have it ... so my other son and I can try to lose so my other kid could win it and win the game?
Is there no difference in tokens between arrows and numbers? Or do the numbers have to be won 1 after the other without interruption of other cards being won in between? Because it was specifically mentioned with the arrows that different cards could be won in between.
If you have 4 tasks and the tokens "1" and "3", than the tasks with those tokens have to be the first and the third task completed. If you have 4 tasks and the tokens ">" and ">>", than the task with ">" has to be completed before the task with ">>".
Do you always have to divide the mission cards or is it possible to have them open on the table? With 1,2,3,4? And if its not possible, does the captain have to take number 1? Or can he choose
Hi Xander, you always have to divide the mission cards as evenly as possible. The captain always has first choice and isn't required to take the #1 task if there is one. The captain can choose any one of the four available. Hope this helps. Have fun! Hope this helps!
Tried to play this game 2 times.. 1st mission round 1 win *shuffle shuffle shuffle* OK, mission 2 round 1 win *shuffle shuffle shuffle* OK?, mission 3 round 1 or 2 win. Everyone: this game is boring, let's play something else.
if your not going to explain the rules why did you upload a play thru????? wow dude just wow didnt even explain the end of rounds which was the whole reason i came here.
This was the clearest rule explanation I could find on the internet. Nice job.
Wow, thanks Chris! So happy to hear you enjoyed it and that it helped you out.
I agree!
100% agree. Clear concise rules explication 😊
Yes! The manual they provide just does not get to the point. It’s structured and written very poorly.
I agree, thank you!
Brilliant tutorial. Clear and easy to understand with minimal nonsense. Thank you!
This is the only explanation I've seen of this game that made it make sense! Thank you!
Great video! I loved the explanation, production and the pace. This is good work.
Finally, confirmation that whoever wins the trick starts the next round. I don't know if I missed it multiple times, but I couldn't find clarification anywhere. Thanks!
Our pleasure, glad you found it helpful!
Fantastic teacher! Thank you for clarifying something for me. Onward to The Crew!
Happy to help, and thank you so much for the kind words! It's such a great game.

Each player's communication token can be played once per mission attempt, not "once per game".
Other than that clarification, this video is great!

Great explanation. One part I didn't fully understand is the difference between 1,2,3 and >, >>, >>>
aren't they asking you to do the same thing?

Thanks Stephen, glad you enjoyed it.
This was very helpful!
well done, nice clear explanation.
Thanks that was a helpful and simple explanation
Our pleasure! Thanks for watching and glad we could help.
Great explanation!
Really great video. Thanks!
Glad you found it helpful! :)
Nice work buddy !
I have this but haven’t played it yet. I really don’t understand what benefit there is to the communication token.
Maybe I have to play it few times to understand it.
Did not show how tasks are distributed and whether task selection can be skipped
Great vid!
Very good and clear tutorial! Going forward you'll be my first go to for games tutorials. 👍🏻
@2:58 "you draw a task card", but in the rules on page 9, it says "Tom is the commander and will be first to CHOOSE one of the task cards. So is it random? or deliberate?
You draw the requisite number of tasks before taking it in sequential turns to choose one of the drawn tasks, starting with the commander.
@@Tetchuo so it is random, because you are drawing them correct?
Got this game for Christmas and want to play it badly, but just keep getting confused as I go through the rules. So what is that reminder card for? What is it to remind you or others of?
The reminder card is just a way to remind everyone around the table that you have a card faceup on the table when you've used your communication token.

@@AllYouCanBoard thank you!
Now say your friend has the task of a pink 9 but you have the pink 9 card, do you automatically lose the mission?
If you won the trick with the pink 9 then yes you would immediately lose. If you mean you had the pink 9 in your hand still, well there are some ways your friend can get that from you. Thanks for watching!

@@chi-townmex9346 Absolutely! That's a great way to get someone else to win it from you. Thanks for the comment!

Solid tutorial
Thanks much, appreciate it!
Quick question in your video you mention the game is for 2 players, is it? My ubderstanding is that is 3 up
It definitely works best at 3-5 but there is actually a 2 player variant if playing with 2 is something you'd like to try. Thanks for the question!
This needs more examples
Not ‘Jars’.
‘Yahres’. It’s German for year.
Essentially, “Connoisseur’s Game of the Year”
Tried to play this game 2 times.. 1st mission round 1 win *shuffle shuffle shuffle* OK, mission 2 round 1 win *shuffle shuffle shuffle* OK?, mission 3 round 1 or 2 win. Everyone: this game is boring, let's play something else.
rlly dont get why this game is popular
Wow u look so diff here
Haha funny timing, check out tomorrow's video! ;)
Lost me at "coop game". If there was a duel variant at least.
Thanks?
if your not going to explain the rules why did you upload a play thru????? wow dude just wow didnt even explain the end of rounds which was the whole reason i came here.
