Great Western Trail Playthrough / Jeremy's Birthday Stream

Great Western Trail Playthrough / Jeremy's Birthday Stream
I'm pretty good with rules but one that I got wrong for almost 10 games was that you lose 1 presence in a land when you can't defend a ravage, you don't lose all your presences. It opens up some new possibilities when you play this rule right.
Yay! Always on the lookout for mistfall content!
3. You could elaborate more on "Prey" keyword, explaining that the exception is the "only" keyword in the Prey clause. For example, "Prey - *specific investiagtor* only" will ignore the closest rule, and doesn't even engages with someone in the same zone, except if some other investigator uses the Engage action. 4. Again, you could elaborate that Auto-fail token will result in a fail even with a skill test 0. 7. I might be wrong on this one, but you don't shuffle the mulliganned cards back in before you draw. At least that's how I played it. Edit: checked the reference, my way is correct, and it's more logical, since you don't want those cards to return to you when you redraw after shuffle. 9. Exhaust is notable with cards that have something like "This enemy doesn't refresh in the next upkeep phase" (quick player cards or sometimes on the enemies themselves). Other than that - pretty useless rule, since the upkeep phase is right after the enemy phase when they exhausted after an attack.
Good info but very slow delivery. Could have used some editing and more concise wording to make this half as long.
so you dont add explorers to lands that have no invaders on them??
Good job, but it's just a video for people who can't read the manual properly... Which is not that intricate actually.
While it's not explicitly stated, we've ruled that you're allowed to get rules advice from your team, such as "what does it do, what would be the effects, can I play/commit certain cards, etc", you're just not allowed to give any opinion or advice on better choices
New to AH LCG. These videos are invaluable to me as a new player so thank you.
Thanks for this interview! Distilled was one of my fav games I played last year! So much so that I streamed it from the GenCon studios at GenCon!! Dave is an absolute delight and I can't wait for Luthier 💜
At 19:49: I agree with you that the only misfire Greater Than Games has had with Spirit Island stuff is that monstrosity Deluxe Invader board. Well, a lot of people also complain about the foil spirit panels, but you all seem to like them, so not a complete misfire there! 22:10: glad to see you're doing Explores correctly now compared to your past videos. ;-) 45:24 you shouldn't be peeking at your earned Fear cards before it's time to resolve them, unless you're Bringer or Memory using a power for that purpose. If any of these are House Rules of yours, perhaps you should list those in the video description so that anal retentive pedant commenters like me will back off.
Wow--Finder and Fractured are tough random spirit pulls.
Very helpful. Thank you.
For the removing of 1 of each of the levels of invader cards; Yes, that is so you can't know what is coming next, but equally important to remember is that running out of those cards is a loss condition. If you have a thicker deck, you are making the game easier
This was helpful, thanks!
Thanks
Thank you for your review, it helped me to made a decision to buy it .
Guide starts 3 min in
Busting
A rule that took me a while to grasp, when playing a Campaign at the end of a scenario health and horror damage do not transfer to the next scenario, I was confusing it with Trauma which is only applied when you're defeated. E.g if you take max health hit points during a scenario you start with one health damage ( 1 health trauma) on subsequent scenarios; likewise for horror if you are defeated by receiving the maximum hit points for horror, start with one horror (1 Mental Trauma) for subsequent scenarios. For each further defeat add one trauma as applicable health or mental.
I think your guide could benefit from more analysis. Mostly you are currently just reading the card description. think about adding to each card assessment: In your experience playing how did it perform? did it perform as expected/better/worse?
Just unlocked this guy. Thanks for the video!
for the living magma, you do not need to be next to the enemy. line of sight is enough.
man, you have to do something for the sluggish video & audio being of sync. impossible to watch.
while at it also do not put the moving background on the cards. makes my head spin.
Promo`SM 💐
Great production value, love the way you showcase the card effects! A slight correction, Eruption only creates hazardous terrain and deals damage in occupied hexes, it doesn't affect unoccupied hexes adjacent to the created obstacle.
I just came to these comments to ask if there was an errata or something on this, since he explained it the other way with his example XD
Witchy Wednesday! So funny I just an seeing this
New to the game and have the privilege of piloting this character as my first. Learned a lot from your video. Thank you and keep it up 😊
Thanks! Glad it was helpful! I think this is my favorite class so far. So I'm glad others are getting to experience it.
@@elevation_games you are naming a favorite without naming your top three!!! Out of the characters I’ve piloted, I’m most partial to Geminate, followed by Brute, Mindthief, Coral, Spellweaver, and Harrower
@@somefishhere Ha! Well it's really not fair for me to name a top three. Because I've played exactly three characters so far. Meteor, Geminate and Boneshaper. And yes, I listed them in the order of how much I liked each one. I will say, I haven't played Brute. But one of our current party members is a Brute and they seem pretty nuts.
Important note: You also get to dump your cards with negative trackers when you rest. Also I like the idea of using Melted Armor bottom into Cloud of Ash top when viable and getting through all +1s quick so you can dump Melted Armor again. Also I like the idea of keeping Lava Bomb on any build early on simply for the move 4 with no penalties.
Yes! Thanks for pointing that out. I difinitel included that info in my written guid, but may have glossed over it here. Getting rid of your negative status cards when you rest is important and easy to forget. Great idea about Melted Armor.
Cya soon! Loving the guide
Glad you enjoyed!
Nice stream. Just a couple corrections for your next game. On your first turn, everyone places a "free" long road in addition to whatever else is placed. Also, natural resource spaces do not have to be surrounded to score; they just need to be next to a tile or tower.
@elevation_games may I ask, if the doom in play gets removed “from play” after an agenda moves forward including doom on enemies, allies, and locations etc. does this mean you can run out of doom/clues? Or does it all go back to the token pool? It’s a little confusing.
It goes back to the token pool.
Mistah White!
Wait, so if an enemy is engaged with you and hits your during the enemy phase, it exhausts? Does that mean it's no longer engaged with you? Does that mean if you move it won't move with you nor will it take an attack of opportunity?
Not quite. The enemy exausts, but it is still engaged with you (in your threat area). And after the enemy's phase there's the Upkeep Phase, and during that phase you ready all exhausted cards, so when it get's to the investigator's phase the enemy should be ready again.
good info, thanks!
I’m really looking forward to y’all next play through. When should we expect it?
6:10 What happens when the invaders have enough attacks points to kill the Dahaan and have enough attacks points to attack the land?
Yeah that was a bit confusingly phrased I feel. What she says at first is correct: the damage to the land and Dahan is dealt simultaneously, but this means that Dahan can never 'take hits/damage to protect the land'. It's easier to just follow this list: first check if 2 or more damage is being dealt in that land (by subtracting defend from the Invader damage); if so, add blight. Next, check if there are Dahan, and deal the same amount of damage you calculated in the previous step also to them. Finally, if there are any Dahan left, they deal 2 damage each to the Invaders.
The music is way too loud and distracting. Otherwise, a great topic!
I just played a game with my nephew straight out of the box. We got so many rules wrong. Just watching you go through the process of the mechanics was very helpful. Good luck!
@ 4:46 - Skill value… I can’t tell you how many games that I’ve probably *lost* because I’ve taken the results into the negatives… Thank you.
Wait, you can trigger an action on someone else's encounter card as long as you are in the same space?
Yep
Explorers are added to squares that have a town/city as well as squares adjacent no? In your example it shows you not adding an explorer to one of the towns.
I really like the way you talk to each other. I like the cosy background music. Great job!
I picked Jaws of the Lion for $25 which is almost absurdly low for such a terrific game!
Hey! Bagged and Boarded is my game! Glad you enjoyed the game! Sorry for just seeing this :) I'm particularly happy to hear how the "thematic mapping", as I call it, did it's job in helping to keep a heavy game approachable. Thank you so much for the mention!
Good for you on doing the solo! :). Arkham Horror LCG is an amazing game! Thanks!
I noticed that in the game play videos you don't put the agenda cards next to each other so they form an open book. You have the book page pictures on the outside, so it looks odd. Is that intentional?
Hi , would tell me if I have evaded a hunter monster and gone to another room , does this monster hunters me next turn ? Or does it just get ready and stays at the room?
Enemies you successfully evade become exhausted, and exhausted enemies don’t move. So it’ll stay where it is during the enemy phase. Then it’ll ready during the upkeep phase, and if no one has engaged and evaded it before the enemy phase of the next round, then it will move.
@@danlafferty1222 thank you
For rule one, you don't put invasors in every land, only when there is a city, town or coast, present or adjacent. Thanks for the tips.
nice video, keep it up!!
Nice job. Maybe consider reducing your use of the word like. It's an easy trap to fall into when you're nervous. You're doing great!
