That was a nice round. Always a fist pump moment in Mage Knight when everything just sort of comes together for a huge battle victory . Blood Rage was putting in some work for you.
Just finished winning Volkare’s Quest for the first time with a score of 156. Pushed my luck building up strength since Volkare moved so quickly. Several wound cards in Volkare’s deck along with Wings of Wind to get me to the portal in record time resulted in an exciting win for Tovak! Ridiculously fun!
31:40 Tornado wouldn't help against the Jerk dragon (official name) due to Arcane Immunity. Regeneration/Magic Familiars is a very nice combo! On the turn where you use all that mana and Whirlwind the Dungeon, I think I prefer your original 3 wound line. Saves the the mana skill (and Swift Bolt and Blood Rage) and you can just use Familiars to Heal 2 after combat. Surprised to see all these monasteries remaining unburnt.
Can’t thank you enough for all your MK videos. Without you, I would never have learned and played one of the greatest games I ever have played. Just wondering. Who is your favorite character? :-)
Hi.. why 4 ? Attack is 4; which because it is Brutal, does 8 damage (4 doubled); my armour is 3; so 8 means WOUND 8->5 WOUND 5->2 WOUND 2-> 0, no more wounds; i.e. 3 wounds (the other way to do it is "damage divided by armour rounded up" which is 8 divided by 3 rounded up to 3 wounds). Hope this helps! R.
I did that okay... @23:27 in PART 1. If you spot anything else though, do let me know! (NOTE: you do it each time you assault, not when you conquer it, so if you fail to conquer it and assault again then that's another -1 rep! ouch)
I like Braevalar a lot; so I play with him mostly. I'm not sure about a character guide... possibly; I'll add it to the 'maybe' list :) best wishes, Ricky
@@BoxofDelights thanks for considering it. I would be interested in the reasons why you like Braevalar. But all all fine. Please keep posting new Mage Knight videos from time to time. Have a good start into the new week.
Soooo awesome to see you do another one of these. Small little correction because I know you desire to get all the details correct - rampaging enemies include draconum and MARAUDING orcs.
What an amazing 2 Rounds this was. You started the game with the odds against you but I think tables are turning! Let's see what happens in Rounds 5 and 6.
At 37:49, you can choose regular or fire attack right? (Is half of the sword red? Hard to tell it is small) So fire would be efficient in this case? That might save you a crystal
It does double the attack as damage, but not double wounds. So 4 attack becomes 8 damage, which you then soak up with armour to determine wounds. It's a confusing 3-step process.. Attack -> Damage -> Wounds. Best wishes, Ricky
@@BoxofDelights Indeed, that's what I meant. I believe you didn't make an actual mistake in the gameplay, it was just in the way you phrased it in the video. In it you say that Brutal doubles the attack but, if we want to be technical, the thing that gets doubled is the damage, the attack remains a 4. I know, I guess I'm being too fastidious. 😅 Cheers!
Does the expansions of this game are really worth buying? I mean, if I buy only the main game without the expansions, my experience with the game will be as good as if I play with them or not?
The base game alone is a wonderful experience. In this play-through I included extra stuff for the extra enemies (like the ones with faction tokens, which are from the Tezla expansion).
I just watched this and your day 1 video. Is there any chance a non-genius like myself can play this game? It looks incredible but I have absolutely no idea what just happened after watching for an hour.
I look at my copy of MK on my shelf thinking I should play it, and then, Ricky Royal releases Part II... So I don't need to play my game, instead, I'll watch someone else play it. Thanks.
@@BoxofDelights Oh I must have missed it, because you were so quick! There are so many tiny rules in Mage Knight, it's practically impossible to play a game without making a single error.
One does not simply: back to work when you discover Ricky's new Mage Knight gameplay video
For sure😂😂😂
Mage Knight and War of the Ring are my favorite playthroughs that you have done, Ricky. Keep up the good work always enjoy watching these videos!
thank you ! Enjoy the rest of the series... R.R>
Ricky Royal: Let's go to a Monastery to recruit a unit
Me: BURN THEM ALL!!!
haha ! Yup, a flaming torch works just as well as an olive branch...
That was a nice round. Always a fist pump moment in Mage Knight when everything just sort of comes together for a huge battle victory
. Blood Rage was putting in some work for you.
Now that you are replaying Magic Knight, a classic if there ever was one. We'll be expecting a solo playthru of War of The Ring too! tee hee
OH YEAH! Can't express how excited I am for another Mage Knight playthrough!

I have fond memories of this game. Sometimes I wish I hadn't sold it :(

Nice thoughts; thank Arcee. It's great to get other people's take on things. Such a good game !
What a turn around! Nicely played. Dragon taken down. You beauty! 😂 love it.
Thanks for another great video. As a recent convert to the game, but I never fail to learn or be reminded of something every time I watch… Cheers
my pleasure! thanks for watching. R.R.
Thank you for doing another video. They are always a joy to watch.
I was watching this video last night and in the middle of it it went private! Glad it was re-uploaded :)
thanks Bruce! sorry about that... I wanted to finish out day 2 and re-upload. Glad you found it ! R.R>
Such a difficult beginnig for such a difficult game. I Hope you can recover...
Come on Ricky, you can do It!!!!!!!
Can’t thank you enough for all your MK videos. Without you, I would never have learned and played one of the greatest games I ever have played. Just wondering. Who is your favorite character? :-)
Thanks for watching ! Glad it helped and hope you have many great adventures! Favourite character? I think Braevalar is one of my favourites. R.R.
Awesome work. And can I just say - the new intro is great too!
At 23:00, shouldn’t you have taken 4 wounds? Or did I miss something?
Hi.. why 4 ? Attack is 4; which because it is Brutal, does 8 damage (4 doubled); my armour is 3; so 8 means WOUND 8->5 WOUND 5->2 WOUND 2-> 0, no more wounds; i.e. 3 wounds (the other way to do it is "damage divided by armour rounded up" which is 8 divided by 3 rounded up to 3 wounds). Hope this helps! R.
You keep talking about discarding wounds at end of turn, but you can't do that unless you're resting! Can freely discard nonwounds.
yes, you're right; non-wounds! thank you. i get things stick in my head !
All right. Now I have to set up a game.
00:10 Also when you conquer a mage tower your reputation goes down by 1, which you missed I think.
I did that okay... @23:27 in PART 1. If you spot anything else though, do let me know! (NOTE: you do it each time you assault, not when you conquer it, so if you fail to conquer it and assault again then that's another -1 rep! ouch)
Thanks Ricky for those great videos about mage knight. What is your preferred character? Do you mind to do a character guide?
I like Braevalar a lot; so I play with him mostly. I'm not sure about a character guide... possibly; I'll add it to the 'maybe' list :) best wishes, Ricky

It's just regular attack; Fire Attack is like a flaming fireball icon.
Small correction: 22:41. Brutal actually doubles the damage and not the attack value. Still an awesome playthrough though. Keep it up! ☺

Enjoying the series, but it didn't seem like you replaced that crystal on Magic Familiars the last turn or two?
You don't do it each turn, you do it at the start of each round (i..e day/night). best wishes, Ricky
@@BoxofDelights Ah, I see my mistake. A crystal each turn did seem very expensive!
Looking forward to the next installment.
Cumbersome enemy: you could hace used sideway card to reduce attack and take 2 wounds saving all those mana tokens
yes, saving mana is sometimes preferable to taking wounds. Nice thinking !
Unfortunately blocking is an all or nothing option so you can’t partially block damage.
@@sinxsnipe but it's a cumbersome enemy so you can spend move to reduce the attack
Where does this mage knight come from? I thought only Krang is in the shades of tesla expanion? Love the playthrough!
I think Bravelar was from Shades of Tesla and Krang was it's own expansion.
Do you have the link to the box you use to organize the tokens?
I bought them in a physical shop; but it's possible you can get them online from the plastic box shop uk
Does the expansions of this game are really worth buying? I mean, if I buy only the main game without the expansions, my experience with the game will be as good as if I play with them or not?
The base game alone is a wonderful experience. In this play-through I included extra stuff for the extra enemies (like the ones with faction tokens, which are from the Tezla expansion).
@@BoxofDelights Thank you, sir! I'm wondering cause I can't find this game with the expansions to buy. I just found the base game to buy.
At 12:09, hard to tell but is that a faction token next to 4 fame? If so, you did not take it. Great play through otherwise!
Hi! Those Golems are from the base game, so no, they don't have faction icons. But yes, it is hard to see! Thanks for watching, Ricky
Can you please share where you bought the plastic holder for the ennemies ?
plastic box shop
or just bead boxes from Walmart or craft stores.
@@BoxofDelights thank you both
i really wanna buy this
me:BUY IT RIGHT NOW.
my wallet:wait hold up a sec...
I just watched this and your day 1 video. Is there any chance a non-genius like myself can play this game? It looks incredible but I have absolutely no idea what just happened after watching for an hour.
Hi.. yes. Start here instead: ua-cam.com/video/J_zW9zDxeYU/v-deo.html
Hey Ricky your day 3 video seems to be private
Yes - just re-uploading to fix an error ! (I can't let these things go unresolved... :D )
I look at my copy of MK on my shelf thinking I should play it, and then, Ricky Royal releases Part II... So I don't need to play my game, instead, I'll watch someone else play it. Thanks.
I thought you got +2 rep for defeating draconum
You are right; it is +2; I took +2 @38:44
@@BoxofDelights Oh I must have missed it, because you were so quick! There are so many tiny rules in Mage Knight, it's practically impossible to play a game without making a single error.
Ok, where is the part 3?
Coming up soon...... !
@@BoxofDelightsI can't wait :)
