    I have not watched the episode yet, so I'm going to make a prediction: The Henry-Rand team that picked an incredibly synergistic alliance and wore matching T-shirts are going to absolutely dominate these fools.

    Whewww, some good laughs in this. Great episode and edit! My favorite part was the trade talks between Galactic Newbies and Buzinezz Boyz completely crumbling under the influence of Team Hand, and then the camera focuses on Speedy peacefully eating her chicken.

    loving this! My girlfriend recently asked me why I liked the game so much, and your videos just answer her question perfectly. The atmosphere, politics and betrayal is just spot on! Very entertaining content, and you all seem like great people to be around. cant wait for my next game!
    Minor suggestion: its really hard to remember who's who when you show the board in fast-mode(atleast for me). Maybe you could add a sticker or something in the corner to help with this.
    Cheers!

    These get better every episode, best one yet! Alliances seems super fun and everybody did really well especially Team Newbie! But Team Hand's just too broken. Banned from tournament play.

    I was so relieved to see the players not try to eliminate Rand, since the variant rules say she couldn't be as long as Henry held at least a single planet
    That would have been painful to watch! Great video guys :))

    Im rooting for Buzinezz boyz but Team Hand is too OP, hope they will get nerfed in the next patch. Buzinezz Boyz progressively getting better at fist bump is the character development that i enjoyed XD Love Ian and Samira, they are really funny! Strong episode! The editing is getting better and better, kudos to the editor. And also, the California shirt is supercool! #Openforbiz

    When I saw that the Jol-Naar were in an alliance with the Argent Flight, I thought they would win. This alliance is just too powerful. Congrats to Rand & Henry!
    Otherwise, as always, this was a great video. I had a lot of fun watching.
    Only the awarding of points was not shown as clearly as in the last video. Sometimes I didn't know exactly where the points came from.

    Jol Narr and Argent with PDS 2 and Commander swap is pretty scary. With Graviton Lazer system that's a fleet killer.

    I've been thinking that this game needed some graphics. I thought you were just gonna fade or glow the tokens on the objective cards, but this is way more production value. Good job. If I could make a request, maybe something fun for the player names and factions? This time it was all standard, but Nathan's always gray name and the dark blue from episode 2 blend into the couch pretty well ;)
    Great work as always!

    Nice video. Almost wish for more details on the round summary but it might clutter the screen. It'd be nice to know the number of planets taken and the techs bought just to understand the meta.
    But overall it's great and honestly, we'd all be so lucky to find a group of 8 players who have so much fun when playing and that play regularly.

      @smollydee7332 2 роки тому +4

      It's a long story but it starts with my best friend in 3rd grade assigning me different nicknames for different time intervals. "Speedy McGee" was my nickname from 12 am - 10 pm on Mondays.

  • @postpunkmorticia
    @postpunkmorticia 2 роки тому +4

    dunno if you all check comments from older videos, but do you find scoring in the alliance games way harder to do at all? does it take much longer than an average game (though i realize you always play to 14 instead of 10)? my friends and i are really jazzed to play in teams now but we’re worried it’s going to be even longer than our 12-hour 10-point games lol

    • @RandShami
      @RandShami 2 роки тому +3

      I don’t remember scoring being harder, the only thing I’d say probably increased the game length is deliberating and side-barring with your teammate. As long as you keep that in check I don’t think it should turn out tooo much longer than your average game!

    Not quite sure how the points are adding up here, eg at 16:49 Nick got 4 points but the way he scored just shows Golden Age for 2?
