Thank you for watching the Board Game Nation How to Play - GI Joe: Battle for the Arctic Circle powered by Axis and Allies! To get your copy or any other great game from Renegade, please follow this link: bit.ly/3HqoFci What questions do you have for Hector?
For Destro's special ability, if the battle starts with 6 or more Joe units and after the first round of combat sustains losses to drop their forces below the 6 threshold, then his units would lose the +1 buff if he elects to continue combat, correct? Also, great job on the video. Keep up the good work, gentlemen!
I am still getting my first reps in of this game, but so far they have been wildly different. Still, like any game, I imagine that a "meta" of sorts will develop. Thanks for watching!
Worst case, you've got 3 scenarios, 2 factions (or mix in 3 and 4 player games). It will probably take a few plays to "figure it out", so 8 plays minimum, then change opponents :)
cobra commander ability seems so much weaker than others since opponent gets to determine where the hit goes, would it be overpowered if cobra commander choose what unit got hit ?
I agree. It is very situational. Perhaps in conjunction with the Divebomb ability... CC could target the only cruiser in a group and stand land units trying to make for the 2 VP hex or the North Pole base. But, yeah, otherwise, Destro's and Snow Job’s abilities are much stronger. Thanks for watching!
Hello Board Game Nation, I really need Tipps for playing Axis and Allies. I am new and watched many of your Videos. Now I Play Online and I get crushed AS Allies every Time. How do I Play in the middle Game? Hope you can help me
Thanks for watching! For strategy help, I suggest checking out our Axis & Allies World Championship video series. You can find it a BoardGameNation.com. Good hunting!
The first 3-mins of this video was just a complete waste of my time. Just on with the facts of the game. I had to stop 6:18-mins in because I am not interested in any hex format game of Axis & Allies, nor am I interested in any Artic Circle type of nonsense game. The Rameriez guy is just annoying as heck and a 1-Hr. video is not for me. Renegade needs to try again and make something more tasteful and historic and not something based off of dolls kids played with back in the 1960's.
We had some fun with this video. Sorry that it wasn't your flavor. We are working on the How to Play for the upcoming North Africa game. That one might be more to your taste. Thanks for watching and for the feedback!
Well, if you don't like hex tile games, then so be it. There is some nostalgia in play, but it would be the action figures from the 80's, but that's probably irrelevant. It's just the A&A "engine", like Pandemic in Star Wars Clone Wars, the many RISK titles, and Love Letters. I like the game. I like the nostalgia. I'm not scared of hexes. I enjoy limited asymmetry.
I guess I'm wondering if people are putting it together that Hector Ramirez is a character played by Gary Blevins. Hector is a caricature created by the original GI Joe show writers of Geraldo Rivera. He is supposed to be ridiculous and over the top. Are people missing the joke?

What questions do you have for Hector?
More game reviews need to be done like this. Thanks for the creativity and good humor in the review!
Thanks for the help!
This the best damn how-to-play video ever made!
Haha! Thank you!
Wow, super thorough and well worth the time. Great graphics that show almost every situation as both straight forward and edge case.
Thanks for watching!
Great video! Professional presentation that was both fun and informative. Hector is a hoot! Looks like a very fun game! Terrific job!!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video BGN! The creativity and humor that went into it are fantastic. Keep up the solid content.
Thank you! 🫡
Well done Guys! Very clever and entertaining!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you!
Because knowing is half the battle! The other half.. is extreme violence.
Haha! I have been saying that second part in my head for years! Glad I'm not the only one!
Thanks for watching!
Fabulous! We love it!!!😊
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!
I can’t believe you have so many BBR stars in this video. It’s like Oceans Eleven!
Great teaching video. Thank you!
Hahaha! We did have some fun.
Thanks for watching!
Fantastic video! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Looks like fun :)
It really is. Thanks for watching!
Great informational video with some fun humor thrown in. Can't wait to see you do the north africa how to....
Glad you enjoyed it! North Africa is going to be a whole different thing. Getting started on that one next week.
Thanks for watching!

Also, great job on the video. Keep up the good work, gentlemen!
That is correct. The count of Joe units and the effects are assessed at the start of each round of combat.
Thank you!
Thank you Champ!
Thank you!
Looks fun, interesting take, but I do worry about replayability. Great video presentation, though. I would like to try it out.

Fair point. Plus, I think people are already starting to make scenarios of their own.
cobra commander ability seems so much weaker than others since opponent gets to determine where the hit goes, would it be overpowered if cobra commander choose what unit got hit ?
