Woo! Now, to wait for the campaign relaunch... :) Another game where you sometimes fight the invaders, sometimes support them for benefits, is _Swords & Bagpipes_ where you might need to support the English side in order to earn money even though that will also earn you "dagger" cards... Also, disappointed you didn't call moving the first player token "changing the pecking order".
Heavy Cardboard definitively answering the question, "which came first, the chicken pun or the egg pun?" Thanks for another great runthrough! I wish this game were a bit heavier/darker, with the mammals being an inexorable force around which the Moas compete to go least quietly into that good night. It was nice to see the birds win, from an, "isn't it pretty to think so," point of view though, and I think it fits perfectly the style of game they are going for! On a random side note, would it be inconvenient to put links to the KS projects when a playthrough goes up for a KS campaign? I'm not so lazy that I won't go take another look anyway, but I *am* lazy enough that I wish there were a link ;-)
Thanks, Kenny and sure, we can do that! I think there will be more/other Maori games that will cover the grittier, darker side of things. I think for what it is, this conveys it perfectly. Thanks as always for watching!
Thanks for the excellent teach and playthrough! Just picked this up on sale and as a Kiwi myself feeling very nostalgic :D
Great job, folks! It was fun to watch!
Thank you, Kevin! Glad you enjoyed it and had fun!
Oh, this visual structure is much better and cleaner.
What exactly do you mean, Steve? We're always looking to improve, so what was improved?

Oh no! Mixed up the Kiwi and the Kea during rules explanation.
Ya know...even when I was saying it, I knew I was wrong. Blargh. Thanks for watching, Euan!
[At 28:00 min.]Maori Wars is a Legion 's game (not Compass)
Great video.
Bah, good call. My bad! Thanks for the correction and glad you enjoyed it, Juaum!
Skip to 1:10 for start.
