Intro 0:10 | Overview 0:29 | Box Exterior 1:24 | Unboxing 2:46 Fallout: amzn.to/2EU8uE8 Fallout New California: amzn.to/2K3zYLK Hello Rollers! Remember the Showcase I did for Fallout from FFG? Well join me as we take a look at the first expansion for Fallout published by Fantasy Flight Games. Enjoy!
9:50 The scenarios in New California are in fact the same scenarios as the originals (with a couple of exceptions) the word 'Expanded' does literally mean the map is an expanded version of the original map adding in all the new map tiles. Just worth being aware of you actually get 1 new co-op and 1 new competitive scenario with New California
You get a bigger map and two encounter cards adding new Vaults. I'm playing it with my kids now. The new maps add more monsters so the monster phase is getting messy. I might play where monsters only activate if they are on or adjacent to a hex with PC.
The idea of: since it cooperative is also soloable, is great! I hadn't thought of soloing as two people. The biggest issue I have had with the board game is 1 the randomness and to the difficulty. They kind of go hand in hand since it you get hit hard too early you don't stand a chance. When that happens and how badly you get hit is all random except that the enemies somehow know exactly where you are anywhere on the map and are heading to you at all times. I adjusted that myself but can get too easy so it's tricky. However, playing as two people working together it might just do the trick!
@@RollingSolo Good it[, I was considering it, but was on the fence. I'll give the game one more go without it and if I still like it then next time I get a chance I'll buy it. Thanks for the tip!
I have one on the the channel for Fallout already but it would be fun to revisit this one! We shall see! Thanks for letting me know you’re interested 🤩
I love the base game solo and bought the expansion on release. Sadly I haven't been able to find the time to touch the game since the expansion released. My backlog of board games keeps growing and my spare time keeps shrinking.
So true, life! Really you liked it? I was disappointed. It was very random and difficult. I had to make more own adjustments like enemies having to wait to move so they don't all come at me as some how they just know where I am at and don't stop following me. Or perhaps I read the rules wrong.
Thanks! I would love to see a play through of the co-op scenario. I have the base game and have looked at getting the expansion but not quite sure how the co-op would play.
Awesome unboxing. I have this game and have always been curious about the coop scenario. I’m not 100% how to play it so it’s just always been passed up over the expanded scenarios. Will you be considering doing a play through for the coop scenario?
I think it would be fun to revisit this one but I don’t want to make promises. I take all feedback into consideration when planning out my schedule. So this helps! Thanks for your support :)
@@RollingSolo in french. I want to play it with my girl friend so getting an english version wont cut it. Thank you for the video, I enjoyed watching it.
This expansion is a great addition to the game. My complaint is the base game felt unfinished, so this expansion should have been part of the main game. If you can get the base game and this for $60, it's worth it.
I agree with that. I believe this should have been included as well. Would have made for a more complete game and there were no new mechanics introduced. Thanks for watching!
Hey Arguset! I don’t make promises on playthroughs as it’s quite a commitment. It’s great to hear you’d like to see more, which helps in my decision making! Keep letting me know your interest :)
I really love the wasteland theme and am very tempted to buy Fallout base game, but I am reluctant to do so because there are some overwhelming negative reviews about the high degree of randomness and less cohesiveness towards the end. Since your channel perfectly fits what I want to do (playing solo 90% of the time), what is your opinion on the base game for solo player? Do you think NC expansion is a must-have to solve all those issues? or Should I wait for Atomic Bonds? By the way, I love Eldritch Horror and have a couple of expansions so you know where I am coming from.
you just need to throw away the Influence system. We play coop, sometimes semi-coop, just for the sake of the story, and we creates our owns collective objectives. It's very easy to do, because the game is like a roleplaying game/choose your own adventure in a box.
Hey! I put it in the popup that appeared on screen to the Showcase which starts with the Fallout Unboxing. Also you can click the 'i' in the top right corner of the video to find it as well. Cheers!

Very true. Good information here. Thanks Buster!
@@RollingSolo you are welcome. Still worth the money for the added content in my opinion

Because of the new characters and additional weapons, it is definitely must have.
Very much agree!
I played the Fallout 1 Rise of the Master cooperative with 2 characters. Created my own custom map based on the computer game locations.
Now that sounds awesome! 👍🏼
That's what solo gameplaying is all about - creative solutions.

I also recommend getting Atomic Bonds as well. This is one of those games that got much better for solo play after all current releases.

The card art and the minis look fantastic!
Agreed! :)
could you do a full playthrough of this on your channel with maybe the atomic bonds expansion too solo? i would like to see how to play it
I have one on the the channel for Fallout already but it would be fun to revisit this one! We shall see! Thanks for letting me know you’re interested 🤩
@@RollingSolo no worries :)
😄
Fantastic game and expansion, I have actually started using fallout boardgame with Fallout wasteland warfare and the new FWW rpg book.
Ah that’s a cool combo! That new RPG book looks killer :)
@@RollingSolo What RPG book? I knew about Wasteland Warfare.
The WW one is the one I’m referring to. :)
I love the base game solo and bought the expansion on release. Sadly I haven't been able to find the time to touch the game since the expansion released. My backlog of board games keeps growing and my spare time keeps shrinking.
Me too! I just got around to opening this one but have had it since release. Now I must merge together and get it to the table! Cheers

I know the mister handy and the X-01 Power Armor figure but what are the other figures?
Not sure off hand but they’re from Fallout 🤪
Hope you found that info!
Looks like a great expansion, the detail of the characters is excellent. Love the computer games of Fallout and this is just as good. Thanks Adam.
Makes me want to play them all over again. Fallout 4 in VR is such a blast!
Ya I was hoping to get more expansions but they only added a card pack. I wanted new Vegas and Boston!
Thanks! I would love to see a play through of the co-op scenario. I have the base game and have looked at getting the expansion but not quite sure how the co-op would play.
Haven’t played this one yet myself but hope to merge it in the near future. No promises on a playthrough as I covered the base game but we’ll see! :)

It kills me that I cannot get my hand of a version of New California in my language.
That's the worst! Which lang are you looking for? :/
Thanks for watching my friend.
@@RollingSolo in french. I want to play it with my girl friend so getting an english version wont cut it.
Thank you for the video, I enjoyed watching it.
@@Thesavagesouls Ah gotcha! Well I hope it becomes a possibility for her. Glad to hear that ;D
Will there be a play though for New California?
Hey Logan! Can’t make promises on playthroughs. I did complete one for the base game. We shall see! But thanks for letting me know the interest :)

New California is a must have for solo. Plus there is a new deck coming very soon for Fallout to push solo/co-op even further!
you just need to throw away the Influence system. We play coop, sometimes semi-coop, just for the sake of the story, and we creates our owns collective objectives. It's very easy to do, because the game is like a roleplaying game/choose your own adventure in a box.
This game is next on my list.
Awesome game! Recommend picking up all expansions for solo. Really fills out the experience.
This expansion is very awesome! I hope they do a New Vegas one :)
That would be great! The mat for this game is also cool looking too.
Never put the Fallout Unboxing in the description

Rolling Solo Ahh, I’m using mobile so I couldn’t see it lol. Thank you
Ah! Gotcha. Good point though. Never thought about that. Cheers!
Falloot
haha How dare you!
@@RollingSolo lol
;D
rocking horse shit expansion.. :\
This expansion in combination with Atomic Bonds is awesome!
@@RollingSolo it maybe, but have you tried getting it in english? its like rocking horse shit....it just doesnt exist.
It’s tough to find. I got mine when it came out as it was solo specific and I wanted it! So in a way I got lucky timing wise.
One option is to ask your FLGS to bring it in for you from Asmodee.
@@RollingSolo asmodee have no copies :D
