    You expressed a little confusion about the reveal icon when resolving the effects of a hunt, and offered an explanation that was a little off-kilter. This is because you're confusing the "reveal" mechanic with the "successful hunt" mechanic. It's entirely possible to have a successful hunt that does not reveal the fellowship. The fellowship is revealed only if the hunt has a reveal icon.
    If the hunt tile does not have a reveal icon, they can move, take some damage, and move again on the very next die they spend.

    Seriously, thank you for making this. These videos would have saved me a ton of time when I tried learning the game last year. A small note (already mentioned, but bears repeating): rolling a '6' with the hunt die means the shadow draws a hunt tile (it's a successful hunt). The fellowship is not revealed if the drawn tile does not have a reveal icon on it.

    I have never watched your channel before, but found this when i was looking for a how to play on War of the rings, and i must say, as someone as looks at alot of how to play videos, that this was the best one i have ever seen, good pace and really clear graphics on screen. Most ppl are trying to get it done as quick as possible, but i feel you nailed the time, the pace, the content, yea 10/10. Big thanks!

    Excellent video! However, your Reveal/Hunt information is wrong. A successful 'hunt' roll DOES NOT automatically reveal the Fellowship. Only a reveal icon on a pulled tile may do so.

    I just wanted to say that this tutorial is perfect. I just ordered a 2nd ed. reprint by local publisher and was looking for a good learning video. Thank you for your work. I'll watch all parts more than once. This is so much better than hitting the wall of text in the rulebook :)

    10 months later, playing again, forgot some of the rules. It helps for us to watch this video for a refresher and get setup to start playing in 30 min.

    The fellowship is not revield with the success hunt. It is revield only when the tile with reviel icon is drawn. See example on p. 42 of the rolebook.

  • @jotaeme7436
    @jotaeme7436 10 місяців тому +2

    16:40 That's incorrect. The Fellowship is revealed only if there's the corresponding icon in the tile. The hunting may be successful and add damage to the ring bearers due to a tile and still not reveal their position.

    I'm thinking of buying this after paths of glory, twilight struggle and A&A40 pacific (I wanna play sometimes entire day, first ww1 (PoG), then ww2 (A&A40 global), and last cold War (twilight struggle). After that this would be probably funny

    I have a question. If you roll 2 dice for the hunt of the ring and manage to get 2 successes, do you draw 2 tiles? Or just one?
    Excellent video BTW

    12:38 Shadow player can change die result to only "Eye" (rulebook p. 21)

    • @christopherwintersvahn6087
      @christopherwintersvahn6087 Рік тому

      Not only. SP may change a die into an “Eye” if they wish. This is specifically mentioned in the rulebook since FP cannot change their die into “Will of the West”. However, SP cannot change a “Eye” result to something else.
      So basically: SP can change a die into whatever they choose with the exception of a die that goes directly into the Hunt Box. (IE an “Eye”.)
