Really useful seeing the fight against the trolls because when I first fought them I thought the character needed a successful attack to make the second attack to chop the fallen trolls to bit. So I had a LOT of trolls regenerating because I kept failing that second attack, when I could have just taken the attack round to perform the action. 😔
Correct me if I’m wrong, but around 1:30 you decide to attempt leveling up the wizard from 2 to 3. However you just leveled him up after the dragon fled in the last video. In my copy of 4AD on Page 65, number 9 under the section Things to Remember, it says: “Keep track of who was the last character who leveled up, because you cannot level up the same character twice in a row, even if he is the only character alive.” So were you allowed to do that? I just want to learn the rules correctly.
Good question. I had the same concern. I'm thinking the wizard should not have rolled for XP since the rulebook states that clues are found by a single character, so any restrictions put on that character would apply here.
If you've already covered this in a previous comment, I apologize for repeating - can you tell me where you found the 12-sided "d6s" that you use in these videos?
So I am playing this myself and I have encountered a Medusa. I was wondering if you know if I roll it's reactions first or if I have to roll to save against the gaze first.
I'm kinda questioning that 'non-violent' sleep mechanic for the Medusa. The Rogue started with a dagger attack, so I assumed the whole encounter is classed at violent. If you started with the Wizard and did a successful sleep, then I'd be more inclined to say non-violent. But I get it, I played this myelf and probably do the same in an effort to maximize my chances. Anyways, love the vids....really helped me out with some finer nuances.
Love your videos and this game! :) Happy you had your 3rd clue because I was just wondering if a choice like weakness of a monster was a one time deal, or lasted the whole game or even campaign. Looking at the clue list I think some are one time deals, others last but nowhere is it written. What do you think? :)
I think you have to interpret the text for the individual reward (something big). I chose "Weakness of a Monster," and it is not very clear on the duration of the effect. It does state that "you have a +2 to attack that monster." To me "that monster" sounds like a single reference and not a reference to any monster of that type. I could be wrong, but to me, it seems like a one time effect. Some of the other rewards specify longer or permanent durations. My reward doesn't specify, so I will go with single-use since it dosesn't benefit me and if I'm wrong, I rather be wrong in the game's favor than in my favor.
NICE GAME THANK YOU!! House rules Trolls can be prevented to regenerate if there body is burned :)
SURPRISING 😳 that you encountered so many FUNGHI FOLK 🍄 in that narrow corridor… 🤔
Ordinarily, there’s not MUSH ROOM in corridors….. 😎
Love this! Thanks 🙏🏽
You're so welcome!

Wow, that was a lot of progress through the dungeon. Too bad about the barbarian. I'm enjoying your play-through sessions
Hopefully, we are able to return him to his normal non-statue state :-)

They are called DoubleSix Dice and can be purchased here doublesix-dice.myshopify.com/
Thank you, sir!
i fall in love with your dices, where i can buy them?
Nice but it often seemed too easy for the party. This group of (mostly) lvl 1 characters were formidable!
So I am playing this myself and I have encountered a Medusa. I was wondering if you know if I roll it's reactions first or if I have to roll to save against the gaze first.
Don't you get treasure for defeating the medusa?
She was a wandering monster and wandering monsters never have treasure :-(

I think if the encounter is resolved (completed) in a non-violent manner even if it starts violent is ok. This is just my interpretation.
3:33 trolls

Gray Board Gamer thank you so much. I agree with you. :)
I don't like the 0 xp vs vermin.
