I hope it helps, let me know after you play again!

Thank you for watching!

Thanks for the info! Sounds like it can help run the solo mode, but also like there are fees; I have to look into it more.

Glad I could help! Everyone is new at some point; welcome to the Domineum! (Please pardon our Corruption while we welcome our new transdimensional overlords)

I wonder if I could use the little starting tokens that come with the modular board as randomizers. Can’t recall if they’re double-sided. I would of course need to get the modular boards first, haha

@@table_for_one personally I think there is enough in the game to not warrant getting the modular board. By the time one gets through Fenris and even the fan variant campaign,,, that is a bucket load of game. But if your a completionist,,, outside of the metal mechs, then totally get it.

18:03 re the coins, you’ll want to know there is added coin designs that are not in this pack, designed I believe in reference to another game that pastes the Scythe design.

Good idea on the insert, didn’t think about weight. The extra coins I think are the $2s and the $50s. They are compatible with Expeditions, set in the same universe. The coins aren’t component limited so I don’t think it will affect anything, just more options to make change haha

Laughing then, coughing now; just in time for a vacation 🤦‍♂️

Thank you! My plan right now is to do these channel updates each Jan & Jul. Glad you like it!

It’s been tough!! But it’s not like I had no other games to play while I waited 🤣

Anachrony is wonderful wonderful game! I know you’ll enjoy it. Do check out some of the fan base support material! It’s mind blowing what you get from the fan base that is a must!

Didn’t know about the Scythe fan campaign, thanks for the tip!

I think an Anachrony campaign that introduces different modules across different levels with some kind of narrative in between would be super cool! Not sure if/when I might find the time to write such a thing, but I’d like to

@stevegeorge7773 Thanks for letting me know. I may return to this one another time then

@@table_for_one maybe do a video with chapters for each example. I kinda switched off. But yea, maybe, if you do any future voidfall plays you might take advantage of it to emphasise elements of this video.

@stevegeorge7773 Thank you! Totally Tabled is great, I watch that channel! I think Shaggy has been around a couple years longer. His videography is much better as well. I would love to buy some better equipment at some point, but my channel is not yet monetized and I'm a couple $K in the hole as it is haha, but I'll keep at it and it will come with time. Tell your friends! ;)

@corey3145 It's in a semi-regular rotation--we were just talking about it last night. It's a popular 2-player game in my house, and sometimes we can rope in a 3rd or 4th player, but I don't pick it up for solo much anymore. Still a fan of this one though! Do you have any pick-up-and-drop-off game recommendations?

@table_for_one the only one I have is Star Wars Outer Rim which is fantastic if you like the IP (which I do). Has a great solo mode especially with the expansion.

@corey3145 Thanks, good to know! I've heard of the game but haven't played it. I'll see if I can find an opportunity to try it

@falculus7190 Thanks! Typically I purchase premium sleeves from Mayday Games (for no particular reason other than habit and good experiences to date), but in the case of Voidfall sleeves were available with the preorder, so I have Paladin card sleeves: 2 packs of Lamorac (70x110mm) 5 packs of Arthur (45x68mm) They've held up great so far, no issues. I do recall that I used I think every single sleeve in the packs, I don't think there were any leftovers, so be careful not to rip them taking them out of the packaging. =)

@coreyl6221 Haha I like that scenario! Yeah, Voidfall is tough to top. And 17 remains my high score as of now, that was a great round!

@markdandridge4433 I don't know Crystalo, but I'll look it up--keep the comparisons coming! =) I agree, my one complaint with this game (even though I think it's stellar!) is that it can be difficult to differentiate the colors sometimes. I have excellent vision with no color impairment and I still have to look closely. I love the game anyway though haha

@@table_for_one I missed spelled the game. Crystallo is correct. I was missing an L. It's designed by Liberty Kifer and published by Deep Water Games. It's 1 player and takes about 30 minutes.

@markdandridge4433 I looked it up and I do recognize it, but I haven’t played it. You recommend it then?

@@table_for_one I have only played it I think 2 times. I bought it to make free shipping. My friend Daniel had did a review and play through of it. It definitely has the same feel. Watching your playing through reminded me of how fun these kinds of games can be. It's not too expensive. I think it's $20. I would play it again. I am just really deep with Dwellings of Eldevale.

@markdandridge4433 I haven’t played Dwellings of Eldervale myself, but ai see it’s a Luke Laurie game with a solo mode. I should add this to my list of games to try!

Thanks!

@williamnickeas5788 Lux Aeterna led me to Aleph Null too (in a roundabout way), and I struggled with Aleph Null the first couple times I played it, but then once I understood it better I quite enjoyed it! This copy was borrowed, but I do have it on my list to buy it eventually. As for the mirror at 16:18, the mirror's ability says something to the effect of "the next time a card is sacrificed, instead sacrifice the mirror, copying the effect of the first card." So when I chose to sacrifice the boline to gain 2 magical power, it instead triggered me to sacrifice the mirror (and still gain the 2 magical power), with the boline remaining in play. The catch with the mirror is that after you summon it, it automatically triggers the very next time you sacrifice something--it's required, not a choice--so the timing of when you summon the mirror can be tricky.

Ok, thanks for the video and explaining the mirror 👍

You know this one looks neat too! Thanks for the recommendation =)

@markdandridge4433 I have heard good things about Rove too! That title wasn't available to order through the Last Lighthouse's Kickstarter, which is how I ordered these three Button Shy games. But I could see getting Rove later based on how much I like these! Haven't heard of Ragemore, I'll look it up; thanks!

@ShunyValdez Thank you, and glad to have you here! Someday I'd like to film that die rolling across a bunch of other games to have the intro be slightly different from one video to the next. But apparently it isn't someday quite yet haha

@melandloys It was your great idea, so thank you! I'm so glad to hear this was helpful. I think once you understand the concepts in this video the techs make more sense, but if you run into any issues on that front let me know =)

@pilotboba Thanks, good to know! I haven't really interacted with the companion app myself. I do, however, highly recommend the fan-made solo gameplay app! (play solo Voidfall from your browser). It's incredible voidfall-33a59.web.app/

@DonnyRam1961 Wow, thanks for all the great recommendations! I'll have to give at least a few of these a shot. My only real Print and Play (PnP) experience is with fan-made content for existing games--and mostly my own at that--but I know there's a whole world of PnP games out there that are worthy of exploration!

@stevegeorge7773 Bummer! I'd offer to try and buy some here in the US and ship them to you but I doubt I could get better rates than the publisher. According to their website everything should be available as print-and-play (link below). I understand it's not quite the same, but at least it's something, and it's nice that they offer it. buttonshygames.com/collections/pnps

@@table_for_one Oh, this is cool. thankyou!

@corey3145 Totally--they were very reasonably priced, so I picked up three and I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed them! I've played each one at least a dozen times now because they're so quick to set up and play. I've come full circle in my understanding of games now. At first I thought, "wow, a whole game with just a deck of cards that fits in your pocket--amazing!" And then I realized that that's every game ever that uses a standard 52 card deck hahaha

@corey3145 They're pretty cool! I filmed the expansion video already but it will probably be 4-6 weeks before it comes out--a lot of cool content to get to between now and then!

@@table_for_one Love to hear it! Keep 'em coming!

@DarkAngelCaliban Personally I didn't feel like the organizers were cheap, just not quite optimized to their full potential. I have a biased opinion on the organizers though given that I co-own an Etsy store selling organizers: brainbucketgames.etsy.com

@mikehowes3980 First, hi, and welcome to the channel! Second, are you serious?! 🤯 That is so helpful, thank you so much!! This takes a lot of stress out of Badlands tokens. I can’t wait to play again and try this out. You’re the MVP today, thanks so much!

@melandloys I don’t think I can instantly determine a winner for most combat scenarios unless it’s limited to just corvettes and sector defenses, but I am confident enough in the rules that I can always figure it out! Luckily when you play solo/co-op there is no PvP combat, meaning you’ll only have non-corvette fleet types on one side of the battle at most, because the Voidborn can only have corvettes. At least until an expansion comes and throws it all into chaos haha! 🤞😅

@melandloys It's always nice to verify that you've been doing it right, good on you! I re-shot your "popsicle sticks" video today (I wasn't happy with the first run-through) and I'm exporting the completed file now, so it'll be up next week. Keep the good ideas coming!

@amberdunten1569 Hey thanks! I recently received, played, and filmed A Gentle Rain, and that one is turned up to maximum chill haha, should be up in a couple weeks. And by all means store your games in whatever way makes you happy! I kept the box insert for Beacon Patrol at first, but I decided after a few sessions of playing and repacking that it was more hassle than it was worth, so into the recycle bin it went. Happy patrolling, stay chilly!

@coreyl6221 I hadn’t heard of Aqua before, the art looks great (important for an art themed game haha); let me know what you think after you’ve played!

@Darthcarp Thanks! Yeah, I don’t know why I thought for a long time that this game wouldn’t appeal to me, but now I think it’s one of my favorites in its size/weight class.

@melandloys (Whoopsie, looks like my replies to your comments got swapped--I've moved them to the appropriate places now) Treat the Fallen House card itself as "containing" the Sector Defenses in the same way you would any preprinted Installations (like those on the Asteroid Belt sectors). The reasoning is that the tech Combat Replicators allows you to retain Installations after you've invaded a sector, but the Sector Defenses of Fallen Houses are exempt from this tech. This is easier to remember if there are no physical Sector Defenses on the tile. Likewise, when you play solo/co-op and close a Rift, the Sector Defense cannot be retained via Combat Replicators when you flip the tile over; it is pre-printed and simply goes away. Also, as a related reminder, Fallen House sectors are NOT considered Voidborn sectors because they do not contain any Voidborn Fleet Power (they are technically sectors WITHOUT Fleet Power, see the bottom left corner of Page 18 in the Rulebook), so they cannot be the target of effects that, say, place a Sector Defense or Voidborn Fleet Power on an adjacent Voidborn sector.

@@table_for_one Very helpful-thank you!

@melandloys Oh my gosh I'm sorry, I made a mistake above! I will edit my previous comment. I originally said that you should not place the population die on the Fallen House sector until you invade it. That was incorrect. During setup, DO place a standard (variable) Population die--with a Corruption marker--set to the value indicated on the Fallen House card. This is not explicitly stated anywhere in the booklet that I was able to find, but it was briefly touched on in Paul Grogan's official Voidfall rules video. So sorry! I will correct this with a video soon.

@d34dsYnt4x It looks like that's about the same price it's currently selling for in the US. I really like the concept of an ever-changing maze!

@melandloys That's so funny that you found the store first, ha! Either way, I'm glad you eventually found your way to the channel, too =)

@@table_for_one I couldn't resist: my husband ordered the fleet tokens and the house card organizers yesterday. Can't wait to get them!!! As far as tutorial requests go, I would love to see you explain the iconography of the "popsicle sticks" as my husband calls them--the ones that explain how approach and salvo works for each type of ship. He gets it, but I still would love someone to actually zoom in on the graphics and explain what they mean by each one with maybe an example of a sector set up with the different types of ships. While the rulebook, glossary, icon descriptions, and compendium all provide great information, I do find it challenging to sometimes to pull it all together in a cohesive way--and it adds so much time to each game shuffling through all those pages and books while trying to play! That's why I'm enjoying your videos so much. You do a great job of making this complex game seem easy and approachable. As an experiential learner, it's much easier for me to get it by watching someone explain it than reading all those manuals. I'd also love to see you go through all 3 phases of the main board (galactic board? not sure what it's called) explaining the iconography. Again, I think I get most of what they're trying to convey but sometimes the icons are confusing. For example, are you supposed to be able to score for completed safe havens as part of Phase C each time? We scored those as they happened, but then I noticed the safe haven icon on the board during Phase C of our last cycle and wasn't sure why it was there (couldn't find anything in any of the printed materials that referenced that, either). Thanks again for really amazing content!

Oh, that was your order?! Haha, I didn’t realize, but it makes sense to me now. Thank you! Your parts shipped this morning, so they’re on the way! Let me know what you think once you’ve used them. They’re the two most essential items in my opinion. And your two video requests (combat tiles and galactic board) are both excellent ideas, thank you! I will get to work on both of those and release them in the next few weeks.

@melandloys Glad to help! I learned by making a lot of mistakes myself--it's all part of the process. If you have any Voidfall questions that I haven't answered yet, please let me know and I'll do my best to make a video to help you out!

@crapuchettes I will be looking for that campaign! In the meantime I’ll be playing a fair amount of Oceans! Loving it so far after 8-10 plays; it met my expectations which I set unreasonably high 😁 And my only issue with Evolution: Climate was that it didn’t get to the table enough! I’m officially a fan of this series.

@Chordus_Gaius I had to do a search for "crocodile with hooves" and I've got to admit I'm glad I did haha!

@@table_for_one They are awesome

@stevegeorge7773 Haha the Beacon Patrol boats seem like they can definitely handle carrying food to your workers

@@table_for_one Have you given Le Havre a whirl? A brilliant game. Best at two or three while it can do 4 and 5. But I’d never play it at those two counts.

@stevegeorge7773 I have not, but I see it's another Uwe Rosenberg, so I've got to put it on the same check-it-out list as Odin now!

@@table_for_one Odin is his Opus in my opinion. But Le Havre, a quite chess like game at two IMO. Fields for Arle is a title I just attained, and enjoying it, and I can see where Feast for Odin origins come from. Uwe is a very prolific games designer and some titles are a bit hit and miss, but the above: they are all great!

@corey6221 I don’t 100% remember how I found this one; it’s been on my wishlist for a little while. I had never played it prior to ordering. Happy with it though! Nice contrast to Cascadia where both are tile laying games, but Cascadia is competitive and Beacon Patrol is co-op (but both have a solo mode).

It was funny, I was scrolling through, and I remembered the unboxing video. This looked like a fun game.

@markdandridge4433 It is a fun game! More of a thinky-puzzle vibe than a high-octane sort of fun, and sometimes that's just what you're looking for =)

@weatherbutinspace6799 Then more Voidfall playthroughs it shall be! I'll do my best to try and make roughly one per month for the foreseeable future.

@corey3145 Gosh, soon I hope! The big box is still on backorder, so everything is still in the shrink! I intend to do a bunch of rules videos on Anachrony (similar to Voidfall) once I have it all. Last estimate was June/July for the big box🤞🤞🤞

@corey3145 Sadly the answer is no. I’ve since given it away. To me it always felt like it needed another round of polishing, the decisions didn’t feel super meaningful. Your mileage may vary though 🤷‍♂️

@table_for_one Okay thx. I'm looking at getting a game with a short setup for weekday play (think Voidfall for the working man). If you have any suggestions, I would be interested in hearing them. My favs are Voidfall, Distilled, Earth, & Spirit Island. So something that is a thinker with a smallish foot print.

@corey3145 Wow, excellent question! Games with more crunch but less setup (and likely fewer pieces). I'll give you some ideas, but I think they're all inherently going to have a little less brain-burn than those you mentioned, at least in part do to the less complex setup. But here's a go at it! 1- Aeon's End. My friend has this and I've played it 3-4 times. It's a deck builder, mages v. monsters. Because it's mostly card driven, there isn't much in the way of boards, tokens, etc (some, but not a lot). Might be worth looking at. 2- Race For the Galaxy is probably another good candidate. I've only played digitally, and I've never played the solo mode that comes in the "The Gathering Storm" expansion, but I remember thinking it packed a pretty good punch for a reasonable number of cards. 3- Planet Unknown is a polyomino game that I've never played but do have on order, and it might fit the bill. Might be tough to get at the moment, but it should be in stores on a limited basis in the fall (Sep/Oct). 4- Coffee Roaster. This is another that I don't own and haven't played, but I'm interested in it. Seems like it relies heavily on drawing random tokens from a bag, so that seems super easy to setup to me. ***Based on our previous conversation, I can definitely tell you that Anachrony is NOT going to be the quick setup game you're looking for! But I do still expect it's as awesome as those you mentioned =)

@corey3145 One other that I forgot! Potentially Twilight Inscription. It's a roll-and-write in the Twilight Imperium franchise. I haven't played it, but it's another on my interest list. Looks big, but at its heart its just some cards, some boards, and a marker. Worth considering this one too!

@table_for_one Thx so much for these suggestions! I considered Twilight Inscription but got Hadrian's Wall instead late last year so it was already on my short list to consider. Been into the coffee culture some so digging the Coffee Roaster suggestions as I'm a sucker for a good theme. The others I've heard of but don't know much about so will look into. Again, thanks for the number of suggestions!

@CanjeStudios Hey, it's Canje! Thanks for stopping by, always happy to have you on the channel, and I appreciate the kind words =)

@christophergrierson8884 That's probably something I can make happen (given enough time). Glad I could help! Voidfall can definitely feel overwhelming to teach, but it's so rewarding!

@GamingRulesVideos I'd be lying if I didn't say I watched your own Voidfall how-to-play and co-op playthrough before I even received my copy of the game; thanks for showing me the ropes! Keep doing what you're doing, you're on another level!

@yusufismail1311 Glad it helped! You only have to discard glory tokens when you have more than 4 (tokens, not value), and on this playthrough I never had more than 4, so no need to discard.

@corey3145 Hey, thanks for sharing TFO! Paul is a legend, I learned from (and recommend) his Voidfall how-to-play. He runs a great channel-I have been a subscriber myself for some time!

@table_for_one No worries. I try to share as appropriate to the topic in those groups as your channel is great & more people would benefit from it if aware. On a video request note, I would love to see a Voidfall video (surprised right?) where you just go hard and blow up on points on the medium difficulty (possibly with hand picked techs to facilitate) AND a video where you just have to grind it out in a scenario where the cards are indeed stacked against you. A weird request I know, but I just can't play the game enough to fully appreciate all the possible synergies of all the elements. Thanks for considering & no worries if you don't.

@corey3145 Those are some pretty wild requests! It will take me some time to consider how to best achieve these, but I think I’m up for it if you have the patience 😃 In the meantime, my next VF playthrough is already recorded, probably 3-4 weeks out. I replayed the solo tutorial (Valnis), but gave myself the restriction of not being allowed to leave my starting sectors. When I teach VF in person I use the tutorial, but I give myself restrictions to keep it interesting for me.

@table_for_one Thanks for considering & no worries on the time frame or if you do it at all. So many play throughs on so many channels are "typical" type of games so seeing extremes in both directions I think would be interesting. Could be another TFO T-shirt idea "Extreme Voidfall! Where you'll only need the edge of your table!" Like those old monster truck ads🤣🤣🤣

Sunday, Sunday, Sunday!!! 🤣
