True Solo Rules (Draft):
- You begin the game with Blood Magic, Tier 1.
- The first time your hero dies, increase the Blood Pool by 5, draw and gain a random Greater Aspect, and move your hero to the nearest Village.
- During the Declaration phase of combat you may choose to spend 1 Energy to perform the Defend action at half rank and take another action simultaneously. You may still only use one item per turn.
- When rolling Skill tests to attempt an Investigation, roll each test twice and apply both results. Traps only activate once, even if more than one roll triggers one.
"Krasvetelia. The sun sets on this cold and desolate place. Once a beautiful land of craggy mountains, fertile valleys, and deep bottomless chasms, it has now wilted like a rose in winter.
The small kingdom, tucked away from the rest of the world, has had few rulers in its time. None certainly as evil as their current. It is rumored that Mirza Noctis came to power some two-hundred years ago. Eternally youthful, the man is whispered to have controlled the bloodlines of this place, carefully arranging unions between noble families and culling those of weaker bloodlines.
Now, the peoples of Krasvetelia live a harsh life, starved of happiness. Writing is outlawed and the caste system in place prevents all but a handful of nobles from holding titles and land in Noctis’s name. Up until recently, starving to death was most of Krasvetelian’s worries. But more and more, people are going missing in this land. Devoured by darkness, some say...
The scholars, left to themselves in their remote monasteries, have recently unearthed a terrible secret: Mirza Noctis is working tirelessly, his agents harvesting blood from the local populous. Years of unattachment to this land have left the people mostly unaware of his actions. But a terrifying fact is now clear: Noctis is working towards a massive blood ritual. He has all but locked away any tools that could be used to defeat him, and the scholars worry he is just beginning. A greater threat is about to befall the land..."

I'm personally looking forward to learning more about the campaign systems they've been working on.
Thanks for watching Eric! More to come soon. Stay tuned!
Thanks for the playthrough Adam! I have the first 3 volumes but am yet to get Sands to the table. The theme of this one really appeals to me (probably my favourite of all of them so far) and some of the new/altered mechanics are cool too. Told myself I didn't need this one too haha but it looks good!
Sean! This one is my fav of the series now. Thanks for watching and hope the playthrough helps you decide on it. It was also cool to see artwork on the encounter cards. 😄
Sam I am debating if I should back this or not. What you think about the game? I will be playing solo mostly and sometime with one friend
OMG the encounter cards have artwork!!!!!! blow me down... :)
Yup! The encounter cards look so much better now. 😄👌🏼
The gameplay is more important than the art in the end 😏
Agreed. 😄
im such a huge fan of hexplore it every new game really builds on the last fast becoming one of my favorite series in all of gaming such a good solo experience! i just need to get shands of shurax and catch up lol oh that vertical battle mat is a welcome adaptation
It’s such a great series and gets better as it goes along. Shurax is the heaviest of them all. This needs one is the best of all of them imo!
I love your content. Thank you for doing this. I am curious, what stackable component trays do you use? Also, I am curious if you record your voice on both the camera and microphone and just sync them or you turn off the camera mic. Anyway, great stuff. Thanks!
No problem! Happy to get you rolling with it. If memory serves those are UberStax. I don't use them as much anymore but they're really well designed and handy! I record video and audio all at the same time. 😀
Uuuhh HEXplore...this brings back memories from your old videos. :)
Love it can't wait to see what's in store
Right? Me too! Been a lot of fun so far. Another one coming tomorrow! 👍🏼
@@RollingSolo can't wait!!!!
epic spooky intro
It begins! 🥳
2spooky4me!
@@Saucebrunette haha ;p
played this game for the first time last night and it was pretty good, a LOT of rules though, by the time we went through them all we ran out of time to finish the game
we did run into one class question that i was hoping someone could help with
i was playing as *The Medium* so i had spirits that i used to fight with against other monsters
the problem is the Spirits are monsters that inflict status ailments, so do status ailments affect enemies?
if so, how does that work? can the enemy get rid of the status ailment? so if i can inflict "frightened" on an enemy is it permanently stun locked? cus according to the guide, frighted targets can only defend
or do i not deal any status ailments listed on the spirit. and just do the flat damage?
Cool I like the game narrative, nice touch!!! Quick question: do you think expansion are worth it? or just go to the base game for each volume... thanks
I have all the expansions to date, and will get this one. However, i have yet to even open one. However, I see myself playing DMN quiet a bit, as I love the gothic horror genre.
@@klinktastic thank bro i will consider that... just i have a feeling that the core box will be enough as usual if i will take the expansion is just for collection purpose
@AspiretotheStars I mean the expansions add some extra layers. But bear in mind that there are already multiple win conditions/ways to play the game, 100s of race/role combos, etc in the base game. I have only played maybe 15 total plays among the 3 games I have. Barely a scratch on the surface of the content. I would say, the expansions have great content. I'm just not there yet with my amount of playing. I have young kids, so my gaming time is not what it once was.
For me, I consider them worth it. However, if you're unsure, the base game is more than enough to get you going and to determine if you like it enough to invest more. If you know you typically like adding more layers, customization and variety, then the expansions will bolster the game for you.
@@RollingSolo I will like to add more layer but time is not on my side... as usual if you have kids.
I will go with the core boxes and lets see in the future release.
Hey Adam don't know if you've stated this but do you have to play the other hexplore it games to understand this one? Or is this game standalone?
All Hexplore It games are standalones. However you gain experience by playing previous iterations and it benefits you at the setup of the next game. You may also combine them into one mega-game!
@@amberknight6585 correct on all accounts. Core mechanics are the same across all the games. But there is quiet enough unique aspects to each game that there is a ton of replayability.
Completely stand-alone or mixable. You don't need any other entries to enjoy just one of them. They'll add to what you have for larger games or extreme character customization. Cheers!
@@RollingSolo Yeah, while it sounds appealing to mix the games. I find that each game has so much to explore (pun intended) that you would need to play many games before needing to start mixing and matching to extend the replayability.
Adam, playing and already knowing Mirza Noctis, would You recommend to pick up during the campaign also previous Hexplore games for a beginner or do You think that this game would be fully enaugh to be satisfied? Is Mirza Noctis missing some very cool mechanics from the previous Hexplore games or would You say that it so far the most complete and satisfying Hexplore experiance?
Hey Marcin, as someone who owns, and has played the first 3 games in the series, it seems like Mirza Noctis is maybe the most straightforward of all the games. Outside of the core mechanics though, the various win conditions and special features are unique to each game. However, you can merge them together to bring mechanics from game 1 into game 2, if you wanted. I'd say this would be a good entry point. Then when they release game 5, you could pick up the rest if you like it.
@@klinktastic Hey . Thanks for Your answer. I've just pledged the 4th volume for now and I think I will wait with the rest as You advised. First I will see if the game is suitable for me :) You're sure that they will be working on the 5th volume? :)
I recommend this entry over all the others. It's my personal fav of the four and the best for newcomers as well! :)
@@RollingSolo Thanks Adam! :) Can't wait to get my hands on it!
@@genPredator Hi Marcin, of course, glad to help you with the decision making process. I am 100% sure they will reach their final objective to have all 6 games in the HexploreIt universe published. They have been very, very consistent. They do a great job with communication and delivery throughout the campaign to you receiving the product. I hope they have plans beyond the 6th game.
Very well made game unfortunately it’s very rule heavy . I was debating to back it or not but seems I have to keep looking for a simpler game to back. But it’s a very interesting game .
This one isn't as rule heavy as Sands of Shurax. That one is the heaviest in the series. I recommend this one over all of them!
