    Great playthrough! One thing for people new to Gloomhaven: if you infuse an element with a card you play, it gets infused (move disc to strong column) at the end of your turn, not when you play the card.
    I will say, it was super brave of the player with basically no experience to be on the video! Gloomhaven is not easy for most to pick up. Bravo!

      @@Tmisp2209 with it being infused at the end of your turn, yes another player or monster can use the element. You cannot use elements that you infuse during your turn that result from abilities. One exception is if you use an item that can infuse an element. Then, the element is immediately available for use.

    Bought the 1st edition a year and a half ago but by an unlucky or maybe lucky event, when I moved the game was left behind inside one of the moving boxes (or maybe stolen) who knows. Anyway what seems like a bad outcome now has become an opportunity which I have already backed and can’t wait to start again with all the new changes!

    • @oliwardcomics

      nevermind. I just found this entry in the frosthaven rule book
      "Figures can move through allies but cannot move through enemies, obstacles, objectives, or walls. Traps and other effects of hexes trigger when a figure enters them."
      "A figure must always end their movement in an unoccupied hex."
      this will change my whole game.

      @TheOnlyTata Рік тому +1

      ​@Zoleeca it didn't have line of sight. So move was correct. There is a doorway and thus can only target you through doorway hence the movement and disadvantage since it has to move there to maximise target numbers and would only have disadvantage on unit in doorway.
      You're wrong.

    • @Zoleeca
      @Zoleeca Рік тому +1

      @@TheOnlyTata Ok, so based on FAQ. So maybe I interpret it wrong? 1st priority is loosing/avoiding disadvantage on the focus.
      After determining focus, how exactly does a monster chose its destination hex and how does it maximize its attack on its focus and any additional targets?
      It will determine its final destination hex (the hex where it can attack it's focus) by using the prioritization rules below at the beginning of its turn. The evaluation is first done using the monster's current movement range. If the monster can't reach a hex from which to attack using the movement it has this turn, the rules are re-evaluated assuming infinite movement. Also, the monster uses its current attack when determining its attack/movement options, even if it may have a different (or no) attack when it eventually reaches its destination hex. If there are multiple hexes that meet the criteria, players decide ties.
      1st - Attack its primary focus, losing/avoiding disadvantage if possible
      2nd - Attack as many extra targets as possible
      3rd - If there are still multiple attack locations with an equal number of different extra targets, use the focus rules (least amount of movement points*, then proximity, then initiative) from its starting position to determine which secondary target (in addition to the previous target(s)) should be included in the attack (repeating for a tertiary target, etc.) and select the attack location which includes these targets.
      4th - Lose disadvantage on the extra targets (all equal priority, players decide ties)
      5th - Use the least amount of movement points*

      ​@@Zoleeca See page 42 of Frosthaven Rule book, if you have it ;
      "When a monster performs ranged attacks on multiple targets, it moves to attack the most possible targets (including its focus), with the fewest possible disadvantaged attacks while using the fewest possible movement points".
      As you can see, it doesn't matter if the focus is the one that is disadvantaged or not. What matters is
      1. Maximizing # of targets
      2. Minimizing *total* number of disadvantaged attacks
      3. Minimizing movement

    Original GH has numbered counters for the monsters to determine the order in which they move. How will that apply to minis? Isaac just moved the monsters (example: 1:14:08) in an arbitrary fashion.

    Hello ! I noticed that the players didn’t activate their defensive items, while my understanding about this rules is « you don’t have the choice, if requirements are there, you must use it ». More specifically, the defensive items are triggered when you are attacked / damaged. Isaac didn’t prevent this from happening.
    Is this a mistake from me, or a change in the rules ? Or a mistake from them, maybe ?
