I worked for Blizzard Entertainment from 2008 - 2013 and Wrath of the Lich King was a huge expansion for World of Warcraft and working their during that time was wonderful. My brother just sent me this game as a belated birthday present. Hopefully this video will help me keep my sanity until the game is delivered later this week. Thanks Rodney!
Happy birthday - I hope you have a great time playing!
Wrath was best time I ever had with any game. Thank you for being a part of making that happen
@@connor8148Precisely 👍 Best part of wow
This reminds me of the golden age of Warcraft 3 and all these 10 heroes style maps that would spring up then. Good times. I know already I am going to enjoy this board game immensely. Thank you very much for a clear, solid and fluid presentation!
You're very welcome, have a great time playing!
Amazing presentation, fast, smooth, to the point. The game also sounds enjoyable, I am now convinced to buy one.
Thank you for the kind words about the presentation and have a great time playing the game!
Finally managed to find the time to get into this one, thanks to your video I mastered it pretty quickly, it's now my most favorite tabletop. Thanks again!
So glad you enjoyed it and that the video was helpful!
Absolutely fantastic description.
10/10 Box flip at the end.
Remember to advance that despair marker!
Thank you kindly!
That looks really fun! Going to get it to play this christmas. Last year i got my family to play Small world of Warcraft and we had such a blast.
Here's to an upcoming merry Christmas of gaming to you and yours :)
My family and I just played through this for the first time today this Thanksgiving afternoon.
We got about 90% of the rules correct, however we got it wrong how the symbols on the quest cards work.
In the example used in the book we got confused and thought the fight symbol on cards was how you advance through the quest after using the dice (which meant we was not paying attention to each symbol, fight, shield, heal, etc on the quest board as to how to properly advance the token).
After the game, I then went to UA-cam to see a play through. Your channel came up first.
You did an excellent job telling us how to play the game and showing us where we went wrong in the game. I’m even more excited to play again.
Playing through once on our own helped us to figure out the turn order and the basics in how the game works.
Now that we have all the rules sorted out, it will be even better next time around.
Thank you so much. You earned that like and subscribe.
I can’t wait to check out the rest of your videos.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Very nice of you to share BC, really glad the video helped you identify some corrections to the game play! I hope you all have a great time in your next play, and welcome to the channel :)
Looks so awesome!! The Pandemic system is tried and true, and the reimplementation here looks great - using actual locations/heroes/baddies. Not to mention the amazing components! This is looking like a winner!
If you get a chance to try it, I'll be keen to hear your thoughts!
Very well done video - I love Iberia and rapid response. Played WoW so much, mostly during WotLK - this looks like a must have!
Hey hey, glad you enjoyed what you saw!
One of the best game reviews I’ve ever watched! Can’t wait to get my hands on this and play!
Have a great time playing!
Excellent video! You are well-spoken and organized, making this very easy to follow. Looking forward to playing this for the first time tonight!
I hope you have a great time Paul!
Thanks for the video, I've never played World of Warcraft, but I love the Pandemic system (I already own the normal pandemic, Iberia, Reign of Cthulhu, Rising Tides, and Fall of Rome😅) and I do think this is a very interesting reimplementation of that system, and might even be the most different use of the system to date, so I'm now seriously considering getting this one as well just for the new interesting way of implementation of the Pandemic system it offers.
Yeah, I think even if you don't really know the setting, I think it works as a general fantasy setting too. If you get a chance to try it, I hope you enjoy - you are a Pandemic expert, after all!
I'll finally try this game today and feel pretty confident with this explanation!
Have a great time playing Cesar!
this is probably so much fun to play with friends and fans of the warcraft universe
Rodney, videos always my first go to. Every game becomes so clear. We use your videos if available to learn new games first before reading the rule book. Makes it easier to understand. Thank you!
Question: all the quest mini bosses seem to possess an action above their damage as you state on Naxaramus example except Malygos. Does this quest mini boss have any ability related to the mage text? Seems odd they made this one boss compared to the other red quests so easy.
Hey hey Christopher, so glad you're enjoying the videos :) Not sure about the answer to your question, but this sounds less like a rules question and more like a design question :)
Thanks for the teach Rodney. Can't wait for this to arrive!
You're very welcome Michael!
Have friends coming tonight for game night and this video helped immensely. Thanks! Your rock!!!!!
I hope you all had fun!
That was an impressive opening box spin . . . 👏🏼
Thank you kindly!
Hey! Great video. I preordered the game as soon as I heard about it. Can't wait to try it out. You've done a great job at explaining the game! I have one question: what happens when you have 3 ghouls and 1 abomination on a single location and have to add another ghoul? Thanks!
You would add another abomination.
Great Vid! I just bought it and can't wait to play.
I hope you have a great time!
Love the way pandemic system can fill many lores and be fun all every time. My first board game was pandemic call of cthulhu and i love it.
Yes, it's been neat to see this system used in new ways and settings.
Thanks for this indepth explanation. Really helped in getting it going. There were a few question markers for me when reading the rules (Most Likely due to English not beeing my Mother Tongue. This video cleared all to set us up properly~.
So nice to know this was helpful - have a great time playing!
super stoked for this game. thanks for this video.
You're very welcome - glad you enjoyed what you saw!
Thanks Rodney, can’t wait to get my copy to the table and quest with my kids!
Hope you all have a great time playing!
Ironically, if you abbreviate "World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Litch King: the Board Game" you get "WoWWotLKtBG" which is actually the incantation for summoning zombies
we call that an easter egg
We're sorry if you're now dealing with an infestation!
Sounds like a murloc.
What are the odds of that????
I just discovered this game at Target and, before buying, I immediately watched your video as soon as I came home. Excellent video, thank you!
You're very welcome - if you pick it up, I hope you have a great time playing!
I saw this on the target website and decided to watch the video to make a decision before purchasing lol. So great to be able to watch these videos to make sure it's something I would enjoy!
@@pobvox I hope you have a great time playing!
Got this for my son for Christmas, playing it tomorrow! :)
Have a great time!
It will be really cool if you made the "Watch it Played Awards!" jejeje
Such a fun game, so glad I played it
Really nice to know you enjoyed :)
You know at first I was going to say, da heck dude? You are at least ten years late and then I was like oooooh its a board game o.o! Didn't know there was a board game. 1:30 remarkably close to hearthstone cards. So glad to see a channel dedicated to great cause.
Surprise!
I've never played WoW but this game looks great! I can see this replace Horrified on my game shelf
Glad you enjoyed what you saw - thanks for checking it out!
Thank you soooooo much for the help !
You're very welcome - have a great time playing!
Once again, it will be an insane task for a competition out there to top you, Mr. Rodney. Superb guide and simple, yet wonderful, production.
Very kind of you to say - glad you liked it!
“Advance the despair marker”
But but but….I just opened the box!
A true Pandemic player!
I never got into Pandemic and all of its iterations, until this came out, was an instant buy and I don’t have any regrets.
Hey, so glad you found one that was a good fit for you!
Greetings Mr. Smith. I was wondering if you could do a video on the regular WOW board game. I find your videos helpful, not only to teach the games, but also to helping me figure out if id be interested in the game. Keep up the good work.
Thanks for the interest! I talk a bit about that here: ua-cam.com/video/EdtDuvIUa6A/v-deo.html&t=342 - with the original WOW game, because it's not in print, I can more confidently say that I wouldn't feature it, because if someone watched the video and was interested in the game, it would be very difficult (and likely expensive) to find. Hope that makes sense!
@@WatchItPlayed Thanks for getting back to me. I completely understand, and still say keep up the good work. Your videos are awesome.
Thanks for understanding!
Found out this existed a while ago, and I already preordered it, but I have to wait until late november for it to arrive, since I'm on a spanish speaking country and my local store brings that version. I took a loot at the manual to see how to play it, but your videos always make it much clearer to me.
Keep up the good work, amazing video. I can't wait to play this!
Have a great time playing - it'll be a little wait, but now you'll be able to jump right into it!
20:57 That was kinda smooth, my man
Can you play more than 1 fight card on a single attack action? Love the videos!
During a fight action on your space, after rolling dice, any hero on that space can play any number of “Fight” cards. Each “Fight” card adds either 1 or 2 fists as shown by the number on the card.
I never got into Warcraft on the computer but this looks very interesting even for someone who's not as familiar with the worlds.
It has little easter eggs for people who know the lore, but if you didn't, it still plays like a fantasy setting, so I think can work for people who haven't played the video game.
great guide!
Thank you!
thank you cant wait to play with friends :)
I hope you all have a great time :)
We have actually never even played anything related to World of Witchcraft, but I have to say, this looks like a pretty good game. It is different enough from Pandemic to not make it a remake of the original game. It has a lot of great mechanics. I am going to give this one some thought. Thanks for the great video. This is why I miss watching your videos, they really give me a good idea if a game might be good for us. I would probably never even given this game a second look. But now, it is on my radar!! Thanks Rodney!!
Good to have you back and going through the videos Frank :) Glad you enjoyed what you saw here!
@@WatchItPlayed I also watched a Patreon, so I am doing pretty well… LOL
Thanks!
Thanks so much for the kind support!
1) I am making a comment to show my level of engagement with your video (as inspired by the recent TSC Express episode)
2) Seeing your horizontally stored games is so calming, so reassuring that the components will not shift needlessly while vertical.
3) As always keep up the great work!
Ha! I will be showing Jamie this message :) Hope you enjoyed the podcast episode!
@@WatchItPlayed It is always great to hear guests on TSC. Also, any time the "Flat Gamers Society" can unite and turn back the tyranny of heathen "Vertical Gamers" it is a good day!
** please note, all of this is in jest and not to be taken seriously. Please direct any negative comments to Don.
@@bakermitchell6209 What if game designers started to design their boxes to be better suited for vertical storage without shifting, or if there are custom insert producers who design vertical storage inserts for games? I agree that I hate vertical storage because of things shifting, but it has a benefit of being able to pull out a game quickly without needing to remove other boxes from the top (or letting the top boxes plop down) in order to retrieve it.
Very well done video and very well explained play. I am considering buying this game. Your explanation was very helpful.
Do you give recommendations on games? Do you have any particular pandemics style favorites?
Hey, thanks for the interest. I tend to avoid giving personalized recommendations. What I like, someone else might not - but hopefully you see a few games on here that might be what you are looking for!
Would you recommend cars sleeves for this one? The bigger ones look like they won't fit anywhere though, lol
I don't have a strong opinion about card sleeves on board games, I'd say that's more of a player preference.
I played this for the first time and had a blast! Even though I was playing by myself, I didn't play the solo game; instead, I just played 3 characters. I have several questions, though.
Questing:
1. When questing with more than 1 player on the quest space, can you use only 1 card to advance the quest track, or can you use 1 card per player on the space? The rules made it sound like the latter.
Fighting:
1. If the Lich King is in the color you're fighting and there are no enemies remaining after the fight, do you still lose 1 health due to the King?
2. Can you fight ghouls and abominations at the same time (i.e. during the same action)?
3. If the Lich King is in the citadel, does he exert his influence on all fights on the board? So, for a fight in any color, do you lose 1 extra health?
Sylvanas Windrunner:
1. When she fights from an adjacent space, do enemies on her space (not the adjacent space) cause damage to her at the end of the fight?
Thanks! I'm planning to post this question to board game geek, too.
Very glad you're enjoying :)
I'm always happy to try to help with rules questions, but if the answer is provided in the video, than I have to direct you there. You'll find an index in the description to help you find the section you might be looking for. The only question you asked that perhaps wasn't explicitly answered was Fighting 1) The answer there is yes.
Regarding Sylvanas, I do my best to answer all rules questions on the games I cover, but I avoid individual card effects, as that's a level of detail beyond what I can manage across all the videos I do. I'd suggest checking the rules forum for the game on BoardGameGeek or the publishers website. I hope you can find your answer there - have fun playing!
I own all of the Pandemic games, I think. I just got this game for my birthday this week, so thank you for the video explaining the rules. I'm excited to give this one a try! The rules look a bit more complicated than the other Pandemic games, especially with other players contributing cards on my turn. I may have to ask some extra questions.
Yes, there are a few extra twists in this version. I hope the video helps and you have a great time playing!
I'm late to the game here but this looks like so much fun wow. Off to my local game shop I go tomorrow I guess
Have a great time playing Rob!
Hey awesome video! Just one question when you say all abomination dmg (if there's more than 1) is done at the same time, does that mean that only one hero must take all of it? Or can you spread it if there are multiple heroes in that spot?
They deal their damage collectively to one hero.
Fantastically presented video! I got this game for Christmas and had a blast, although me and my friends were wondering two things in particular:
1. Can we play free actions (card or muradin effect) after our last (4th) action or can they only be played while we still have actions available?
2. For thralls special action chain lightning, do we have to declare the order of spaces we hit before each roll? I would assume it as too convenient otherwise lol
Thanks ahead of time!
1. You can play them after your 4th action
2. I do my best to answer all rules questions on the games I cover, but I avoid individual card effects, as that's a level of detail beyond what I can manage across all the videos I do.

@@WatchItPlayed thanks for the info! I'll definitely look it up
This looks really fun! Thanks for the How to play!
You're very welcome - thanks for checking it out!
Hello, I really love your board game explanations. Mainly on the game Villainous. But is it at all possible to have a how to play for the games Card Wars by Cryptozonic and Risk..?
Thanks for the interest! I talk a bit about that here: ua-cam.com/video/EdtDuvIUa6A/v-deo.html&t=342
@@WatchItPlayed okay I understand... I’ll look forward to a video in the future if their ever is one... thanks for replying...
Merci :)
Look...love the channel, it has completely reinvigorated my love for board games and been buying new ones left and right. It just bugs me you don't like to touch upon solo mode...I know the rules are similar but it would help people looking to buy games specifically for solo play incase no one can come over and play. Idk, just a thought. Still love the channel.
Hey Rob, completely appreciate your interest in solo play. The catch is that there are so many games, and so little time, so I feel my time is best spent focusing on the multiplayer rules, which can also get the solo player most of the way there, in many cases. That said, ironically I released a video today that is solo rules only :) Check out Final Girl. We also have a new series that released this year called Table For 1 where we do teach the solo rules for games we've previously only covered the multiplayer rules for, so you might enjoy some videos from that playlist.
@@WatchItPlayed haha! Ooo I already watched it before you replied! 😉 looks fun too and I understand all your points you previously made, thanks for the reply though!
I've never really been a fan of the original Pandemic IP, but this looks different and interesting enough where I'll give it a shot!
Glad this one caught your interest!
As always, love the videos! Miss the mustache, though.😎
You might be the only one!
Touché my friend. But I’m still keeping my hopes up!🙏🏻
can't wait to play this one!
Thanks for checking it out!
Question: what do you do if all the scourge cards are in the discard pile, do you reshuffle or that’s them used up?
I shot this long enough ago that I don't recall what the video says specifically, but if doesn't say to reshuffle, than you don't.
Hello there! I'd have 2 questions regarding the gameplay, so #1: If an abomination catches up to me and deals 1 dmg to me, if the LK is also in that region, do I receive 2 dmg or just 1? And #2: If I'm questing on a quest space and a ghoul/abomination is also on that space, do I take dmg from them as well or just the dmg of the quest boss + LK, if he's around?
Hey there, I'm always happy to try to help with rules questions, but if the answer is provided in the video, than I have to direct you there. You'll find an index in the description to help you find the section you might be looking for.
any chance theres sleeves for the cards? Would like to add protection with the amount of games we would be playing.
No sleeves are included, but they could certainly be picked up separately.
Great video! Can you play fight card for adding sucess (+1/+2) when doing the quest? Also can you play any other card matching the icon to progress the quest? (I don't mean contributing without discarding)
Sorry, I'm actually having a bit of trouble understanding your question. What and how you can contribute a card to a quest is explained in the video though.
@@WatchItPlayed I mean, in quest situation when you roll for example 3x success, can you play fight card(+2) to progress further (3+2) with discarding the card like in fight?
@@fisa7 Hey there, I'm always happy to try to help with rules questions, but if the answer is provided in the video, than I have to direct you there. You'll find an index in the description to help you find the section you might be looking for.
Haven't even finished this video and this one is already on my wishlist! Very excited for it! Do we have an idea when it's coming out?
I think mid-November? Perhaps the 19th?
I think that they said December 2021 in the GenCon gameplay video.
Cool! Thank you both
@@iphatbass I hope it makes it in time for Holiday orders at year end... my wife is done with me buying new games, but I have my 7-year old starting to buy me games :)
Here's what I've heard: October release at Target, and then wider release in November. Pre-orders open now.
Oh I spend many many an hour online back in the day playing WoW, especially during WOTLC. I'll have to check this one out.
Me too - I just get a twitch when I think about it. Spent a LOT of time there!
Same here. Also enjoy the WoW Board game, but it takes a lot of space and time to setup and play
Hi. Thanks for the great video
Hey Łukasz, there is no penalty for performing actions on a space with an enemy.
@@WatchItPlayed thx :)
Hi, just wanted to ask what's so special about muradin's ability (when you quest, you can contribute 1 addtl card)? I mean are we limited to only contributing 1 card for the quest?

just got this today, was going to pick up the original but then came across this and couldnt turn down the minis!
Hope you have a great time playing!
@@WatchItPlayed havnt yet, waiting for kids to go to sleep 😄. But thanks
Couple questions,
1st question- Is there a limit to how many of the same actions I can take when using my 4 actions? For example, can I use 3 move actions to move 3 spaces, or if I fail to roll 3 fists to kill an Abomination, can I take 3 fight actions, same for rest and quest? Or can I only use 1 of each action type per turn?
2nd question- So the video example for The Nexus, the first three spaces are travel action card icons. If I have a travel card in my hand, I can "contribute" to move one space per quest action. The rulebook states that it doesn't get discarded. So going back to my 1st question, if I CAN use 4 quest actions while doing a quest, in short, can I contribute the same card multiple times on each quest action to progress further? Or is it a "one time use" contribute? I noticed the travel icon comes up later in the progress track, could I theoretically use that same travel card to progress if it's still in my hand?
3rd question- When activating Abominations, when it's moved into a space with a character on it, it deals 1 damage to that character. Does that 1 damage rule also apply when spawning ghouls into a space occupied by a character?
1) You can repeat the same action multiple times in your turn, so for example, if you want to use all of your actions to move, you can.
2) That's right, each time you quest you can use a single card from your hand - so you could use the same card you had used before.
3) Nope.
Hope that helps!
Got my copy today! Can’t wait to throw some bones, and take on the Lich King!
Good luck in your questing!
Rodney! Got to play it today, and first and foremost after watching your how to video, set up was easy, gameplay was easy and it almost felt like I was a pro at it.
The game is great! I enjoyed the theme very much. They really capture WOW and how annoying the Lich king is as a villain.
We came very close to losing but was able to pull it off with cards we had accumulated and great dice rolls.
The pandemic system is great for this game, as it really captures the war between the hero’s and villain, and how quickly the enemy can overrun the areas.
I cannot wait to play it again, on a harder difficulty and with a different hero, this was a very great how to play video! And a very great game! Thanks Rodney.
Well hey, I'm so glad you enjoyed playing this one. All the best on your next adventure!
Great game! Played twice today. It feels a little bit on the easy side,.. next game will be at a higher difficulty.
Good luck on your attempt at the higher level!
Hi! Thanks for the awesome video!
Quick question : during the activate abomination phase, does the abomination only moves 1 space so if there are no heroes in that space then no heroes take damage or it automatically just goes to the closest hero and deals damage everytime?
Thanks again!

@@fredericahmaranian8625 Have fun playing!
Great video. As a new board game player(but long time RPG video gamer) I have a question. Would this game be better than the talisman board games to play complexity wise?
Hey, thanks for the interest. I tend to avoid giving personalized recommendations. What I like, someone else might not - but hopefully you see a few games on here that might be what you are looking for!
@@WatchItPlayed cool thanks. Do you have a video of you playing Legend of drizzt board game?
@@renmaster7319 Nope.
Wondering if a player as an action questing while I’m on the same space can I use a card twice if he quests twice? Even three times. Or is the rule only one card?
Yep, you could use it again on a future Quest action.
Would be cool if they made Black temple 😬🙏 Illidan
Amazing game ! I’m gonna try soon
Thanks for checking it out!
Hi, thanks for the video it really helped me. I just want to ask some questions;
1.If I play with Thrall and use chaing lighting ability while i'm in the same region with Lich King, do i take 1damage for each roll?
2.If I play with Sylvanas, what happens if i'm not in the same region with Lich King but attacking ghouls who are in the same region with Lich King? Or the oopsite, im with the Lich King and ghouls are in different region.
Thanks
I do my best to answer all rules questions on the games I cover, but I avoid individual card effects, as that's a level of detail beyond what I can manage across all the videos I do. I'd suggest checking the rules forum for the game on BoardGameGeek or the publishers website. I hope you can find your answer there - have fun playing!
hi.. does the abomination deal damage if not moved but already on a spot with hero in move abomination phase?..also does jainas passive block that 1 dmg? i am lost
Yes, if the abomination is already in a space with a hero, it doesn't move, it just attacks them. For Jainas's effect, I can't assist there, individual character effects are a little more detail than I can track across all the videos I make.
I have a question, if you are at one of the Strongholds can you get an additional +1 for using the Free Action Heal Card? Example, we were playing and my friend wanted to do a rest action which he did not have any actions to take left. So he wanted to use the Free action card Heal and stated he should be able to use it and get +1 for the heal card and another +1 because he was at the Stronghold. Can you please clarify, because the way I see it is that a Heal (Free Action) and Rest action are two different actions.
That bonus is for Rest "Actions" only. Your friend might want it to be different, but that's not the rule.
Picked this up the other and played it both 2-player and solo.... fun both ways!
Thanks, Rodney, for the awesome guide that helped me make the satisfying decision of buying it =)
I have a few questions, however, that the accompanied guide doesn't answer (or I haven't seen it myself):
1. Scourge Rise card: It says ensure 3 ghouls on space, and add 1 abomination. This means even if there's an abomination there, add another. Right?
2. If I finish my actions, then draw cards, one of which is a FREE ACTION Heal, sometimes it's so tempting to use Heal at that moment; is it allowed? Or only during "4 Actions" phase?
3. When questing, do the Scourge on the space do any damage to me on top of quest and in-region LK damage?
4. Thrall's "I am the Warchief" seemingly has no effect when others are questing inside the Citadel; he must be inside the Citadel to contribute. Correct?
5. Solo game: When questing, you contribute as many icons as you have heroes in the quest space. But assume I have only one matching icon to contribute and 2 heroes on that space -- I can only contribute that card icon ONCE, right?
1) Correct.
2) Check Page 7: Free Action: "During your “Do 4 Actions” step, you can also do free actions, which do not count towards your 4 actions. You cannot do a free action in the middle of an action, and you cannot do free actions during another hero’s turn.
3) No, the only damage you take is as described in the video.
4) I do my best to answer all rules questions on the games I cover, but I avoid individual card effects, as that's a level of detail beyond what I can manage across all the videos I do. I'd suggest checking the rules forum for the game on BoardGameGeek or the publishers website. I hope you can find your answer there.
5) I didn't cover the solo rules, so can't help with that.
Hope some of that was helpful! Have fun adventuring.
@@WatchItPlayed Thanks for the answers, Rodney!
Only thing im unsure of is when im on a quest space if ive taken too much damage am i able to move off of the space other than to the stronghold while my cards just stay banked at that quest and the quest marker is uneffected?
I'm sorry I'm having a bit of trouble understanding the question.
How many cards can be used from your hand to help with quests?
Hey there, I'm always happy to try to help with rules questions, but if the answer is provided in the video, than I have to direct you there. You'll find an index in the description to help you find the section you might be looking for.
Do you think Janina’s frost armor works during the “activate abomination” phase
I do my best to answer all rules questions on the games I cover, but I avoid individual card effects, as that's a level of detail beyond what I can manage across all the videos I do. I'd suggest checking the rules forum for the game on BoardGameGeek or the publishers website. I hope you can find your answer there - have fun playing!
Hello i just got it delivered (had it preordered).A question, lets say i use my first action to move, and i end up in a space with ghouls /and or an abomination.I dont choose to fight em (for any reason) , my next action would be to heal or move, do i take any dmg from the ghouls or does the abomination attack me as it would if it moved to my space?If i heal there do they attack me ? or they attack only if i fight?If lich king is on same colour i dont take the 1 extra damage if i dont fight correct?

I just tried it today. The solo mode with the introductory difficulty was EASY hopefully it gets harder
Yes, it does :)
@@WatchItPlayed I played again…. There were a few things I was doing wrong and it was much harder. Very fun game and as always your videos are amazing.
There are some white dots on the board, what are they used for?
This are attached to certain spaces, which is meant to indicate where on the map those spaces are actually located. It doesn't serve a game purpose, just for fans of the game who want to see where on the map the spaces are truly located within the world of warcraft.
I am probably getting the game just for the minis :)
They are pretty great!
Looks like an overly complicated version of pandemic ... that I totally want to play!
Glad you enjoyed that you saw Bill :)
So what happens during Activate Abominations if there are no abominations on the board?
I feel like prioritizing them early to get rid of them helps until you pick up a scourge rising card and are forced to re add one
Nothing happens if there are none on the board.
Does anyone know the release date for this board game? I only saw that you can pre-order it but I didn't see a mention of the release date.
I think they said winter of 2021, not sure of the actual date though. Maybe November?
Just saw this form Zman games: "It's available for pre-order now! In the US Target will have it first in October and it will widely release in November."
I have this pre ordered in Polish and while I wait I wanted to buy sleeves for cards for this game, but I cannot find any information about the right size. Could You please share this information?
The cards are standard magic sized cards.
@@WatchItPlayed Thanks!
Great video! I couldn't help but watch so I could learn during my playthrough. I really love the theme, I've played alot of WoW back in the day and it really hits that itch. I do wish the game had more of a reward system, but I really enjoy how challenging the game is.
Glad you're enjoying!
@@WatchItPlayed Thanks for making the game easy to understand!
@@switchbeck6673 A pleasure to assist!
Looks like a fresh update to the Pandemic franchise. Great video!
Yeah, I think people might enjoy this spin on the Pandemic game!
If im drawing 2 card and over limit 7 that I can only play reward card or discard? I can not play any regular hero card.
You can't play a regular hero card at that point, as you're not longer in the phase for playing regular cards.
Hi question about the rules, do you must take 4 actions in the particular order, or can you for examole move than fiight than move again than fight again and not rest at all, making those 4 actions?
You can take the actions in any order.
@@WatchItPlayed Thank you!!!!
What happens if I have to put an abomination to place where already stands 3 ghouls and 1 abomination? Should I add 1 more abomination and move the despair marker?
You would add an extra abomination. You would only advance despair if there was not an abomination in the supply to add.
Hi
Can Lady liadrin's power prevent an outrun? It says it prevents a ghoul placement so if theres 3 ghouls already can we take a damage to prevent an outrun if the cards on her space or a connected space?

@@WatchItPlayed no problem I understand! Thanks for your work and passion for games!
Just picked this up on sale at target and does anyone know if the flight ability to a stronghold uses an action? Couldn't find that clarification in the rule manual.

@@WatchItPlayed thank you. Rewatched a section of your video and it answered my question.
Does using a defend or fight card use an action?
It's been a little while since I shot this, but if the video doesn't say it costs an action, then it doesn't.
I knew I was missing another question.
Here's an interesting thought that I don't think is covered in the guide and is Jeff to your conscience.
You can roll the dice first THEN decide whether this is best for a FIGHT, QUEST, or a REST (each as applicable).
Every turn I'm tempted to do that, but it just feels wrong.
What do you think?
I'd say the rules and are pretty clear about this. You pick the action you want to take, and then you perform it. The video doesn't suggest that you start your turn by rolling the dice. You only roll the dice if the action you've chosen to take requires you to roll the dice, but you have to pick your action for the turn first. Make sense?
@@WatchItPlayed yup, that's my original instinct. Thanks.
