Deth Wizards - Solo Play - Episode 3
Keep playing from the difficulty 7 missions you will get to rebuild your horde carefully. But good luck on the arcane college.
I love the shrine. Did you make it yourself or is it a bought terrain peice?
It's a 3D printed piece, but I honestly cannot find where I got it... it's made of a bunch of modular pieces. I'll look again and see if I can figure out where I got the parts.
Reading the scenario its an interesting setup. Decently balanced hero selection. But priests are very strong.
Yes, they are...
First video that actually made this game make even the slightest sense. All the other ones I’ve found on this game are a mess, thanks for structuring this so viewers can enjoy and understand! 😊
Glad to hear that! I'm actually looking at how I present this game in videos so it'll be more clear... hang tight for more d100s!
She good loot there my friend! Look at the portcullis table….good luck
Portcullis table... got it!
I thought a 2, 2 was what a little ballerina wore LOL!!!!!! ( 1 min 17seconds) LOL:)!!!
Do you not realize at 1000 XP you should have upgraded to level 4 and swapped out your attacks for level 2? Also you need to roll for number of doors on corridors (flow chart on page 59) and not just add one upwards at the end. The 1 height for corridors is the basic one square width. You are only allowed 3 armor (page 9), 3 scrolls (page 10) and 5 potions.
Interesting scenario. I want to try it now lol. I would suggest getting a tracker for what phase you are in and maybe more dice so you can leave your last 2 rolled there to reference :p Also perilous dark book has the walls disappearing on a larger number pool in solo play as its too easy to abuse them like you did here.
Love your videos - just joined the Patreon!
Thank you!
Howdy Jim, two things - around 19:50 when you rolled damage from the enemy, don't you subtract because you block on 3? Also, when you became level 4 did you update Jerpa's combat maneuver? I believe you can choose maneuvers that do more damage (level 2 maneuvers). Cheers!
I did update his maneuvers, and I may have missed a block.
I love how games like this are just the old "choose your own adventure" books dialed up to 11... 🤣
I feel like I've been watching you build stuff and play games for the better part of a decade! I hope you find success, no matter what form it takes! I'll add you to my 'patreons to watch' list! As someone who was also layed off before pursuing a different career at home, I get it! Best of luck, and roll many crits!
Oh, and add some County Road Z to that games list!
I've been asked about CRZ a bit... will ponder.
@@thetabletopengineerplays Please note: my support is not dependent on you covering CRZ, lol. I've been a fan since WAY before I started writing it!
Heroquest, Core Space, Stargrave, Frostgrave, and 5P? That's a good sales pitch.
I hope so!
are you doing gaming supplies with the laser cutter or something different? link?
I do a lot with the laser cutter - Christmas ornaments and signs, mostly, but I do have a lot of gaming stuff. somewares.com
Can you provide a link to the game board you use in this and the episode 2 video?
Do you mean the lazy susan that spins?
No, the actual green battle mat in this video and I think it was a cobblestone one in episode 2.
Cuirass, kwee-rass
Thank you!
Great idea, gonna have to steal it :)
Ron.. all yours!
I like how you are approaching this and you are a very smart person moving this way. You can get more support for $2 a month than having all the different levels. UA-cam is just another Wizards of the West Coast yet no one really talks about it. I would also suggest leveraging UA-cam to promote the games that you are playing on Patron. Maybe like a monthly highlight real or something like that. Run your own commercials on your channel. Just a suggestion.
Not a bad idea! Thank you! I love the idea of a summary video once a month.
Good luck Jim I’m not sure I can sub but if I can I will!
No worries, Jeremy!
I love your videos, so this is a no brainer for me!! Can’t wait for August 1.
Thank you!
Any chance the Call of Cthulhu solo plays might make a return of Patreon? I think I can swing a few bucks a month 😉👍
"Do you mean Arkham Horror Card Game or just random Cthulhu solo games? Either way... yes!
@@thetabletopengineerplays yes! The Arkham Horror card games were so cool. I always confuse the two so I just lump them under the Mythos umbrella 😁👍 Either way, looking forward to it! I especially want to see what happens in Feast of Hemlock Vale. I'm hoping you still play that one.
cool, i'll join your patreon later in the month when im able to, you got my interest in Frostgrave going with the videos you did a few months back so will join to watch that, also Stargrave im curious about so you never know may add that to my gaming idea's although i tend to only be able to play 1 game at a time...pity UA-cam has driven you to this but you gotta make a living above anything else....keep the awesome videos coming
Thanks, Glyn!
Dude, you had me at "I'm restarting my Patreon." 😂
Thank you!!
Hey Jim! I used to be a tech writer, too. I got laid off for the third (and final) time in 2017, and decided that I had enough of training offshore replacements. Now I own a quilt shop and I'm much happier. (Yes, I'm a gamer who also quilts. Weird, I know.) Have you considered a Discord server for patrons? I think live meetups are a little easier with Discord, plus it's great for building a community.
I'll look into it!
God do I know what you mean!!!!!!! I populate ALL FLAT SURFACES!!!!!!! I don't know if its a gamer thing but its DEFINITELY a terrain maker thing!!!!!
I actually did a bunch of painting today on the worktable and it was GLORIOUS!
Hope you meet your desired goal for the Patreon. UA-cam has been failing us all for a few years now.
Thanks, Mickey - we shall see!
Fun video! Great to see these
Instead of boxes, why don’t you make shelves with a lip to hold your miniatures.
I've got PLENTY of shelves for minis... I want to keep them nearer my gaming table.
@@thetabletopengineerplays I meant attach shelves to your "peg board" on the game table sides.
I want some protection for them, so a box or shadow-box style object is what I want.
Loved this. Great listening while working
Good stuff! I’ll have to check that out. I’m curious - where are those houses on your work surface from?
Those are from MyMiniFactory - search for "Adrian"
Great video, man!
Appreciate it!
Oof - tough fight! I just had my first Lair assault happen but fortunately only lost 2 zombies so not too damaging. I like the scenario you created, there's plenty of scope to add extra missions and additional bits and bobs, it's a really versatile system they've created. Thanks for the vids, really enjoying them.
More custom scenarios coming!
Great review, i started this game first time last year but want to have another go soon. Loved it
Another enjoyable dungeon delve video. You definitely helped us choose between 4AD, 2D6 and D100 as the wife and myself were looking for a short dungeon game.
Glad my videos helped!
Really digging these play-throughs in the short episode format. BTW, around the 3:50 mark when you roll a 3,3 I believe the rules state that when you get a double, you roll again, giving you the potential for a large room. Go Jerpa!
Yeah... I forget the doubles rule occasionally. Thanks for the reminder, and glad you like the videos!
Looks like I missed an episode, I'll have to go back and look for it! I love that play aid/organizer, where'd you find it?
I sell them :) www.etsy.com/listing/1752227409/4ad-game-board-solo-dungeon-game-aid
Very large lazy susan bearings ought to also be available at your local restaurant supply store (at least in the US).
Good to know!
MAN!!!!!!!! How many 10's did you roll for the heros????? And those recovery rolls were BRUTAL!!!!!!!! Just finished reading the book last night!!!!! I already have a campaign idea for after the first campaign. So LOVING this game series!!!!! Are you retired? Your video out put is AMAZING!!!!!! Any ways your battle reports are FANTASTIC!!!!! Great job Big Guy!!!!!!
I tend to do a bunch of videos all at once and queue them up... I've got about a month and a half's worth of videos done. I'm not retired, but my laser business is all over the place in terms of orders and hours, so I play when I can.
I'm guessing a rescue mission is in the works?
Not for level 1s unfortunately :(
Hehehe, you closed out at 29:38 by saying 2D6 Dungeon 😁 You're having too much fun Jim! Cheers man.
Yep... all runs together :)
Nice idea for video. I might do something like this for solo games. If you ever wanted to return to the idea of removable tops, you could use cone-shaped holes in the bottom of each board rather than cylindrical holes. These would be easier to "find" when you can't see the bottom of the board, wouldn't tend to break pegs, and would auto-center once you're close to the right position.
First one ^^ Greetings from Germany
Hello from Atlanta!
subtract 20 and not 30...rats, bats, spiders? Sounds like my basement. Let's take on a ghost.
I may do that but I typically just follow the dice.
First time seeing one of your videos. That was great! I just got a Wyrmwood table and I've been thinking that I might want something like this for the middle.
I'm surprised they don't make something like it for their tables.
Love frostgrave
Really enjoying this series of videos. Where did you get the trees you are using on your boards? May also have to make a turn table like you are using.
They are from MyMiniFactory - 3d Printed. Creator is RocketPig
Great video! The terrain engineer taking table gaming to the next level! Looking forward to more videos!
Liking this solo play so far. Only advice, blow your nose, man. :P
Yeah, I had COVID. Couldn't help it.
What happened to that +1 attk that ghoul had in the second game?
I probably forgot it. I still have him, though.
Love the lazy Susan table top. I had an idea for fixing and/or supporting the seams. Glue a couple of storing sticks under along the seam. That way you get strength there and also it won’t move around. Love the vids.
Good idea - I will look for something to reinforce.
