Awesome! I thought I could skip this game as it looks great but the gameplay (as far as I have read reviews&comments) does not live up fully to the expectations. Anyhow, looking at your item-galore-hype-video I come back into danger zone of buying it! Let us know what you think about this game and if it is really worth its bucks! Thx!
Hey Marc! Hopefully my videos can help you decide yay or nay with this one. It is quite the looker of a game and I'm just as eager to see whether the solo play holds up. :)
Hey Marc! Looking forward to getting this one to the table. I can't make any promises on when though! From what I've seen and heard its a great solo game which is why I'm looking into it. :)
One of my favourite games. The Automa has a steep learning curve but once you've got it, then it's real intuitive. Such a great solo experience! Look forward to seeing how you enjoy it.
Rolling Solo these resources are really good to confirm that you are doing things right with the automa. I suggest a practice game yourself following the automa rule book and knowing the common mistakes. Then go over the Automa Examples to test that you understand the automa correctly.
Hi Adam, cool to see it a solo playthrough of this game, im consider buying it just for solo play, seems an awsome game and good quality of components!!
Thanks for the review, Adam. Very much appreciated. What is the width and length of the two different board configurations (standard, and standard+expansion)? Thanks!
Hey Gregg! I'm not sure off hand. The next time I pull this out I'll check. If I'm not mistaken, the expansion board basically adds about half the size of the regular board to the regular board. Hope that makes sense. :)
That does make sense. The reason I ask is that I have a spot that is 26" x 58" where I can leave a game set up. I have a hunch that the board + expansion board might not fit. I can look around elsewhere to see if I can find the dimensions.

Looking forward to the play-through... uploaded soon? Game is currently in the "check-out basket" and waiting for a "Rolling Solo" thumbs-up :)

This game is simply amazing! I love it!
The best solo play for any board game I have played.
Indeed! The automata is just amazing! This game is a pure gem!
Looking forward to this one. Heard amazing things about the automa :)

Hey Daniel! Been looking forward to this one for quite some time. Should be a fun one! Cheers :)

Thanks for the heads up Daniel! I plan on playing it through a few times prior to the playthrough! Cheers!

Hello Gustavo! The components are quite impressive. Looking forward to seeing how the solo gameplay holds up! See you in the future playthrough!
The components quality are really really nice! The only game that I can think of that has better components quality is, IMO, Mech Vs Minions.
+Deadpoetic6 Truly is a fancy one :)

Think I found your answer...
"The game board is 624x818mm, and it grows to 818x936mm with the extension."
Can't wait to see you play this monster...
+Kiero I’m excited for it. I’ll need some time to play it through myself as normal prior to the showcase. But it will come in time! :)
So it does not have a campaign?
Hello Pablo! It does if you go after rise of fenris.
@@RollingSolo ok! Thanks! Keep up the great work, God bless. =D
Will do! 😄
My have to take the plunge.🤔
Into the deep end of the pool? ;p
That'sHUGE, you'd be crawling on the board to place things
The expansion board really adds to the board. Truly is a beast of a board! May not be the best for the playthrough, but we'll see! :)
