I think you’re actually supposed to move the hero onto the first zone of a new tile when you explore, unless I’ve just been doing it wrong this whole time. Been playing with the heroes from fables box and they are really good, having a lot of fun with demon blade and swift claw. Fire soul produces so many fate tokens and forge warden tanks like a beast. Good game so far! Edit: also just noticed, even if the brutes attack is a miss he still pushes the hero, just doesn’t deal any damage
I like your reading. Just as a heads up - as a Gamefound All-In pledger I got free access to professionally spoken narratives with fitting background music/noise via the Forteller app. Costs 12USD otherwise. I can confirm that on the starting tile the stairs are a zone of their own and 3 zones leading to portals around it. The latter containing open doors if explored. 13:41. I think when placing the enemies in a new tile it´s meant to place them according to graphics (like the Brute on the rune symbol at 15:00).
Thanks, Markus. I got Lost Legion’s narration as part of my pledge. I like reading it myself though and I’m curious if the video would get flagged if you use someone else’s narration. 🧐 Good to know about the tile. I’ve seen people do both. I appreciate the clarification! I find those cards difficult to read at times. I wish the graphics were a bit bigger. I probably moved it around to the orientation and then forgot to place enemies accordingly. Thanks for the comment!
@@saveyourgame5578 For the video it´s definitely better reading it yourself to not infringe any copyrights, you are right. For playing I´m looking forward to using the app as my throat got dry explaining all the rules and reading narratives in between x-D. And I like the atmosphere of the background noises. Explanation for the Entrance Tile is on p35 of the rulebook (doors) and I interpret "models placed in the zone containing the stairs" that there must be more zones on the tile, which is graphically... about as clearly represented as on other tiles. Those small cards are so hard to read that I put a magnifying glass in the gamebox. Should have made the cards bigger or at least magnified the symbols and the tiles should look exactly like on the cards - which many don´t.
@@markuskern4889 Thanks! That’s a good interpretation of the doors section. Great work. Agreed about the cards! I wish they just did a reference number like Fantasy Flight tends to do, (Descent, JiME).
Only just got these game and thank you for the tutorial video to accompany my reading of the rules. In regards to the Brute's missed attack, should they still push the hero or is that optional? I would think that it has to be done...
Great Tutorial! Cant wait to start my campaign. Also wouldnt the Brutes defensive line prevented the death of the brigand earlier? When in the same zone as other goblins its supposed to reduce damage to 1 for itself and other goblins.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it. I actually just double checked and Defensive Line only applies to enemies in the Brute’s zone. So it was ok to deal two wounds to the Brigand.
Great video. Will help our first playthrough! Quick question for you or anyone else who would know. Could you have used a fate token to empower that charisma check to avoid the corpse becoming a brigand? It seems that this late in the game, there's no point keeping them and you could just use them to help make your escape (if it's allowed...).
Thanks you! No, you cannot. The rules say that you can only empower attack roles here at the start of the game. It does hint that you can find other ways to empower different rules later on though!
Ah yes. I had the hardest time studying that card and finding the right one. Should matter more when the points are utilized later on. Thanks for pointing it out
It is just to hit typically. Nightfeather, however, gets to add plus 2 to damage with Piercing Strike if the enemy is alone in the space. That may be what you saw me do a few times.
The tutorial in this game needs over hauling.Gloomhaven Jaws of the lion is a great example of making a deep game very accessible for first time players an Bardsung needs to take this approach over what I see is a ham fisted tutorial that has no pacing what so ever it gives your combat rules but then gives you exploration and then dosn't tell you the basics like you use all passage way cards but only use x x and x room cards for exploration but also add them to the ones you already have.If you play solo add two squire cards to replace the lack of other hero s you may aswell play with another hero.The lack of how loot works ect come on Steam forge we need better for are money.
I’m picking up Bardsung again after a longer hiatus and I want to say that your tutorials are still the best ones.👍🏻
Perfekt pacing and lots of good info. that prepares me for my delivery of Bardsung tomorrow!
Thanks!
starting this tonight you did so wonderful thank you.
Have fun!

That’s correct! I believe I missed it the first time. I’m starting a campaign with Forgewarden. Looks like a beast!
thanks again.. great tutorial!
You're welcome!

The hallway you placed first isn’t the same one referenced on the card. The one on the card has an orange spawn point not blue

NP. I was so focused on not spawning monsters with circles around them I totally ignored spawning the second monster without a circle around it 😂
I believe they said in the dice tower playthrough, art and the spawn point don't matter, as long as size and portals are the same.
@@AdamHennebeck good to know!
I may have missed something but your dex bonus doesn’t add to damage does it… isn’t it just to hit??
Great video though had to watch in parts lol

@@saveyourgame5578 yes sorry my bad, just didn’t pick up on it, thanks for the reply
