Thanks for checking out my channel! I like to be at least somewhat skilled at a game before making videos for it, so my content has more of a strategy vibe than a "let's play" vibe. Check out my main channel page to see my current series as well as my all-time favorites. Happy gaming!

Slice and Dice HARD Playthrough-Big Hitter
Переглядів 6016 годин тому
This curse doubles the pips of all monster sides that have 7 or more pips. It's a diabolical curse, because most of the time you're playing on Normal, but then you get one fight and you're blown up out of nowhere. The Caws, Stone guys, Fanatics, and most of the bosses become absurdly dangerous enemies. The Basalt fight, which I got in this run, is an absolute nightmare. Valkyrie, to cheat death...

This curse deals 1 damage when hitting an enemy. This is certainly bad, but what makes the curse one of the easier ones (in my opinion) is the fact that there are so many ways to play around it: ranged damage, shields, healing, mana-oriented gameplay. Maybe don't take 1-damage cantrip heroes or cleave attacks and you'll be fine! See all my Slice & Dice videos here:ua-cam.com/play/PLN735uyn0raWf...

This curse just gives every monster 1 max HP. It's a lot worse than it looks! I think the curse that gives 1 HP per 4 HP is worse, though. See all my Slice & Dice videos here:ua-cam.com/play/PLN735uyn0raWf1CgI9czCm7mkLGAgbkEt.html

did you forget about that white card that makes pawns move sideways or did you change your mind and prefer the conscription?
i think the hologram would've saved that one, but i wouldn't have known before
You saved me! I was going on easily 30+ commands
Whoo! glad to hear it, and thank you for sharing!
4:19 Ah yes, now I remember why I subbed you ;p
6:58 oh jumping also reloads, neat
There is one redeming factor to Gangwon round 2 play, he keeps a population in case of event.
Nice vid!
Thank you! This was one of my favorite ones.
"We need to make sure the Jester doesn't die" Are we playing Slice&Dice or Town of Salem?
8:41 that was really funny, the explanation of how to get an extra turn followed by a miss from so close
That was a delightful experience in my life. 😅
15:43 i really thought they wouldn't change their move, so the orb really does affect that
Yeah, that was a cool discovery!
Curses got moved around. +1 hp used to be a 5 point curse for example.
Well there are also new ones, same for modifiers overall.
Ah, interesting, I didn't know that!
Liked this a lot! How long did the game take to complete?
Hmm, that's a good question. It started on November 4, but the app doesn't track the date of starts/stops, and I don't remember exactly what day it ended. Around 2 weeks, I think? We have a Europe/NA time zone split, so I think we're a little slower than most groups.
Great video -- thanks for the analysis. Looking forward to the rest of the games.
Thank you so much, I am too!!
All the best PB!
Thank you!
You mention4ed that you were going particularly hard on Gangwon for... reasons. While also criticisizing his strategies. Is it possible that, his distaste for you is also palpable? Perhaps his strategy wasn't to game-theory optimize, but to rooster-block your play with card choices? You did complain about your first... uhhh... 1000 rounds of not having anything good to draft.
Am I reading this right? You're proposing that Gangwon's entire gameplan was to mess with the card choices of the person.... sitting directly before him in a four player game? What in tarnation!
@@AJ-pn9dm It sounds weird. On the other hand, if PB's analysis is accuracy, then this is a 2000-game veteran doing absolutely stupid things, which is also really weird.
I remember making that comment and wanting to edit it out, but then I thought, "Eh, it's not like anyone's *actually* going to watch the whole thing," so I was lazy and didn't look for it and left it in ... and now I've been asked the question I was dreading. 😅 I'm just going to be totally transparent here and fess up to something I'm really not proud of. For whatever reason, this game ended a lot sooner than the other 4p game, and the trio of 3p games started before that game finished. Then, Gangwon went afk, using up 2 of his 3 days of reserve time (which is highly unusual and no one had done anything like that before). I...assumed without any evidence whatsoever that his reason for doing so was that he was annoyed he lost and decided to drop out of the tournament. Two of my friends are also in the tournament and both of them had someone run out their clock and turn into a robot in their first 4p game, which means that they play only one 3p game instead of three (because by the rules, if you turn into a robot in any game, you're removed from the group for all subsequent games). In my case, though, Gangwon dropping out was extra annoying because he waited until after the 3p games had started, which meant I'd have to play two whole extra games with a robot. Except...he didn't actually drop out. There were server issues that apparently prevented some people from making moves for a while. Once that was fixed he hopped in and continued playing as normal. Literally right after I recorded this video. 😮💨 At the end of the recording, I ranted about that, but thankfully he came back in time for me to edit that rant out (you can easily see a jump cut right near the end). So all that is by way of saying...I wish I had been less rough on both Gangwon and Schedar in this video, but especially Gangwon. It's something I'm going to work on in the remaining videos, but for this one, all I can do is own up to my bad judgement-and apologize to Gangwon on the off-chance he actually watches this, because he didn't deserve any of the unkindness he received in this video.
@@TheMouseMasterYT I suspect there is a level of inaccuracy in my analysis, because despite their weird play, neither Gangwon nor Schedar got beaten *that* hard, and both of them are competitive in the other game. It's a "proof in the pudding" kind of situation for me, because if I think someone's playing badly but they're beating me or coming close, then at some point I have to acknowledge that they aren't actually playing badly! That said, the turn 1 4:37 Rich Land is absolutely 100% incontrovertibly a blunder, and a 2000-game vet making that blunder is truly strange. The extent to which the rest of my constructively critical commentary is accurate is up to better players than me to decide. :)
@@papaboris8665 Eh. Your comment about Gangwon early on came across as mild to me, and I just assumed you meant how he gifted points to Sakic at the end. Which would annoy me as well, so it didn't bother me. As far as criticizing your opponent's plays, that also didn't bother me and I found it amusing. Perhaps you can tone down comments that may be perceived as saltiness or as attacks on a person's overall skill level in future videos, but ripping people's objectively poor choices is both funny AND educational. Don't be too hard on yourself.
GL Papa Boris<3
Aw, thank you Paul. <3 I hope you're doing well!
Yooo! Good luck. I also follow Wiedenbaum's channel, who is/was in the finals for 2024. I wish I could play Through the Ages well enough to enter this tournament and not crash and burn :)
Hey, anyone can register-there's no skill requirements. :) I'm not sure how often you're in the app, but I found out about this tournament in the News section back in October. Next October, maybe you'll sign up for the 2026 championship? If you do crash and burn, your opponents in the first group will appreciate your service. 😅🤠
3:29 knocking 3 bishops off in a single shot
that was still a good one
The Villain is bugged. Hevis not supposed to be undefeated unlimited amount of times. You should only roll once after defeating him, then accept the second check...
cool run
I thought so too, thank you!
@@papaboris8665 you're welcome
You outdid yourself with how that final battle went down! I didn't see that line at all and thought you were 100% toast.
Thank you, your comment goes straight to my head. 😅 I also thought I was done for and was subsequently unreasonably proud of myself. This was one of my favorite endings ever!
that checkmate would've gotten me too
What a heartbreaker!
enjoyable, comment for the algorithm
You are very kind, thank you!
BTW, the sound on this one sounds totally fine to me. (Following up on the other video)
I figured out the issue-it's definitely OBS. If I simply put the MP4 made by OBS and process it in Camtasia, then the sound is fine. So I'll do that for these longer videos, but for Shotgun King, I'm afraid it'll still be the way it is, since it would be too much of a hassle to reprocess all those short videos. When I have time I will do some troubleshooting to see if I can figure out why OBS is doing that / how to make it stop!
@@papaboris8665 That's great to hear -- LITERALLY
@@AJ-pn9dm 😂
Wootabega, its this game!
I'm enjoying the revisiting of some Papa B classics!
I'm excited to be back to this one!
Sir -- the last week or two of your videos, the volume is very low for me. I just checked my sanity by opening another person's video and, yeah, there's a real difference. Otherwise, good stuff as always!
Oof, sorry about that, I will check the levels when I make new recordings! Unfortunately the rest of the month is pre-loaded, so it may stay how it is for a bit. :(
Hmm, I just checked and it sounds fine on my computer--do you mean the sound levels of the game? My voice is a little loud if anything on my end!
@@papaboris8665 Your voice is low and I can't hear the game at all. Really strange! I'm watching other UA-cam videos that are fine. Anyone else want to weigh in?
@@AJ-pn9dm This is so strange! My own and others' videos sound totally fine, including this one. I also would welcome feedback from others!
@@AJ-pn9dm Okay, I just checked again, and I can hear that other videos are louder. So whereas mine still sound "fine" to me at a volume of 20 on my computer, maybe on other devices, they wouldn't sound fine until closer to 100. I'll check to see if there's a way to increase the volume, since it is a little strange that OBS is putting out quieter videos for me than what other people are getting from their software.
rip
it should be better to save the wand kill for a rook right as it's about to attack since they could throw somewhere you don't care about
Ooo, that's a good trick, thank you!
@papaboris8665 no problem
To be fair the candle is still incredibly OP even if banish when you know the map has lot of effects discarding blessings from blessing pile
Funny how you say that you don't kike Kyra in bug parties. In my 6-man party she is THE BEST doing 3-4 explorations each turn, self-sufficient in combat with tons of cards to help others, especially spells that give 2d6 to ANY check to ANY character). And Divine combat spells are very powerful, Sunblast being the most powerful attack spell in the game, more piwerful than any Divine spell (3d8 + 3 or 3d12 + 3 vs Undead, plus it can help any other character by 3). Just take the healer role and you no longer lose a turn when healing, because you draw a card after that, usually a blessing, and spend it to explore. Favor of Nethys and Gobling Golem of Obsidian are the best cards to play after healing. Access to the best armor grants that she almost never discards cards to damage, and 1 armor slot is best spent on that winter armor that exchanges itself for a random blessing.
For a Shaman to work on another character's turn, select people who you wanna heal THEN click the character whos turn it actually is, there will be a continue button.
that sacred crown is an upgrade that seems to always show up
Put it on my wish list. always like some new solo card games to play
Awesome, love to hear it! I've wishlisted it myself and am looking forward to it a lot.
ironically the axiom elemental could have pitched the jian giving both its stats and the token to contest either side for only 2 mana total
Great video!
Thanks for the video!
The reason you got a card feat here, is because in the boardgame you get a card feat for completing the whole Rise of the Runelords Adventure Path. Considering this and the Adventure 6 reward, you get 2 (two!) card feats after you have already beaten the game, which is dumb. Here they decided to give the Adventure Path card feat after scenario 6.1, so that you have some pleasure actually using that power feat before finishing the game. I love that. But of course, they should have mentioned that in the scenario rewards.
Oh thank you, I had no idea!
Hey Papa B, if you haven't done so already, you might want to check out a game named 'Pyrene'. It's a strategy card game combining dungeon crawling with deck building and watching somebody else play it on YT, I felt like it's the kind of game you might enjoy. There's a demo available on Steam, so if you have the time and inclination, feel free to give it a try.
Looks interesting, thanks.
10:18 when you're out of ammo, you generate 1 when moving, then moving again reloads that 1 ammo, and it repeats until you fill the whole thing but if you have 3 ammo and move, all those 3 reload in a single turn, so in some cases, it make sense to purposefully not shoot and let the backup ammo refill
That's a great tip, thank you!
@papaboris8665 you're welcome
Edit: I'm wrong. I missed that Kakoba says "other" characters! 21:23 Just FYI, Kakoba counts itself as a character, so Kakoba + two recruit tokens is already enough to get the boosts.
suddenly decided to go look for this game after years of not remembering the name. i remember i always top score in school on this game lmao.
Not sure you noticed by the red arrows under the flayed ones, but they seem to aggro whomever of your units landed an attack last.
Hey Papa Boris! I'm a big fan of your Pathfinder Adventures and Dream Quest series, your playthroughs of both were the best on youtube! I was wondering if you would consider playing a game called Erannorth Chronicles - it's hard to find a playthrough, and maybe it's up your alley? Thanks!
Thank you so much for your kind words! It always makes my day to hear that people liked those old series. I've never heard of Erannorth Chronicles, and I can't make any promises, but I will check it out!
All right, I just gave Erannorth Chronicles a look, and this is one of those games that makes me wish I was 20 years younger and single. 😅 In college I would have flung myself into a game like this with abandon and slowly figured it out, but at this stage of my life, I don't have enough gaming time to absorb a game like this. I wishlisted it to return to later when I have more room to game with abandon!
@@papaboris8665 Haha, fair enough! It's definitely got a lot going on. Thanks for taking a look!
5:54 Five Knights at Board
That color palette in the thumbnail is very misleading ;p
I remember this game! Glad to see its return.
Got a few more coming!
Oh hey, this game is back.
Short run for now, and I'll be doing more next year!
