Five Tribes - LIVE - Speed Round
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 лют 2025
- Welcome to a new segment on our channel: Speed Round, where we take a game and play it as fast as humanly possible (without playing like complete lunatics). I've heard reports that Five Tribes can cause analysis paralysis for people. Well, not on Speed Round!
At the start of this video you will get a quick, pre-recorded tutorial that will transition directly into the LIVE play through between me and Pep.
Follow-up live chat here: • Post Five Tribes Live Q&A
We haven't tried this before. There could be technical glitches - and we likely won't discover them until after the video. That's okay - it's live, and it's new to us, we'll refine the process over time.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask a question in the UA-cam comments below.

Almost 10 years later and this video is still useful. I postponed learning this classic for far too long. I'm excited for my first play. Thanks!
So nice to know this was useful!
Love the vibe of this video! Very entertaining and informative. I loved your teach of Res Arcana too!!
Thanks so much!
I've been a huge fan of the show for a while now, and I think this is even better. You and Pep obviously have a great time playing together, and your enthusiasm is infectious.
MORE!
Glad you enjoyed it Chad!
This looks like a really amazing game. I had never heard of it, but was told by some friends to look up the game in preparation for possibly playing it with them. I found your videos and now I absolutely can't wait. I'm definitely going to buy it now, whatever happens. Thanks guys, great video!
+the goat Thanks for checking out the video!
Thanks to you both - especially loved seeing it 2 player. Looking forward to more in the future. (Great use of picture in picture by the way)
Mindy Erchull I was pleased we could get that picture in picture to work, glad it was enjoyed.
I really enjoy this playthrough. I know I'm really late to the party but this has convinced me to dive in and buy the game. It arrives tomorrow. Thanks for putting this together.
Hey, you're never late to discover a game! I hope you have a great time paying Simon :)
@@WatchItPlayed Didn't enjoy the "paying" bit so much but will be sure to enjoy playing it ;)
You guys are awesome; thanks for making these vids.
Fabulously fantastic format! (I thought I would exercise a little alliteration.) This game has become a favorite of mine. I have never understood the AP concerns, as I have never experienced such, in this game. All of our games have been as quick as this one, if not quicker...lol. Also, despite the varied ways to score, and the huge number of points involved, the game is still incredibly balanced. We played a two-player game the other night. I finished the game with zero gold, five Djinns, a slightly better collection of resource cards, yet only six camels placed. My opponent ended with a *ton* of gold, no Djinns, and placed all eleven camels. However, there was only a one point difference in our final scores. That is what I call "balanced." :-)
Greg Heilers So glad you enjoyed the video - and have been enjoying the game!
I have wanted to play this game since I discovered board games 7 years ago... I finally got to play it yesterday and I am obsessed! I think this is in my top 3 and I don't even own it... yet!
So glad you finally had a chance to try it... and enjoyed it! :)
Thanks for this! The game looked so much fun I went to the store and bought the game right after work!
The Wanderer Hey - hope you have a great time with it!
Just ordered this game online and am very excited to play this with my girlfriend. At first it didn't look like it would be a good 2-player game but this video sure changed my mind! Great video Rodney
ennieday1009 Glad you had a chance to check it out!
I did not get to watch this live, but even still I enjoyed this format and hope to see more of it in future.
Stasia Doster Nice to know it was still enjoyable after the fact. I imagine most viewers will end up watching it that way.
You need to do a live one about 3am and that way I can catch it :)
This...was...awesome! Thanks for this Rodney and Pep. I hope this is a somewhat regular segment. Really enjoyed the complete play through.
Norm Nevins Thanks so much Norm. This feedback is helpful. We both had a good time and hoped you guys would too.
Definitely. I've heard the Five Tribes hype and chatter, seen a few reviews, even saw it at GenCon. I thought...ah I'll pass. But after the live play through it showed the game off nicely and its now on my list!
Nice segment! Hope to see more of these coming up!
There will be more :)
Brilliant video! I honestly feel ready for a game already, and I haven't even read the rulebook yet! Cheers guys.
Great to hear! I hope you have fun playing!
A tad late to the party but awesome run-through! Bought this recently and love the gameplay! Cheers
You've never too late to discover a game - hope you have a fun time playing Harsha!
GAH! Just missed it. C'mon Smith! Catching up now. Fantastic format.
Drive Thru Review I need to get a little more lead time out for announcing these in the future. Glad you enjoyed the format. Despite quite a bit of pre-planning, we were still kind of flying by the seat of our pants :)
I agree. Love the format and the game.
Very kewl way to see games instead of reading reviews & guessing.
Awesome game & great chat in between !! :)
Thanks Joaquim!
This was a lot of fun and a great way to learn the game. Kudos!
Just one little clarification: during your introductory rules explanation video you pushed and replenished the market cards in the wrong direction. The remaining cards were supposed to move towards the front of the market.
Can't wait for your next Watch it Played - Live!
TheMrE True true. Good catch.
Rodney, you were supposed to get 55 for your lands instead of the 43. You missed the 8 as was posted in the live comments but you miscounted a 5 pointer for a 1 pointer so.
43+8+5-1=55
Which means you win by 4 points!
he also missed a 1 from his resources if you heard. He said 37... after 30+7+1... so he actually won by 5.
DJMack64 Yep, looks like we missed a few points. I'm not used to this thing called "winning" :)
1:16:44
+Watch It Played Hello from Hamilton, Ontario! Great play through.
Cheer, fellow Canadian gamer!
This was great, watched after the event, but still good fun, thanks Rodney. If you do it again it'd be great to see Hanabi in this format.
Hey, fun suggestion!
Great job guys! I really love your videos!
Thank you Nick!
Solid explanation. Seems like a really interesting game to play, but I can certainly see why it would lead to AP.
Lots of choices!
this was really awesome, hope for more in the future.
xibalba1875 We'll do some more of these, I think.
After watching this video, I think you should include Pep in your play-throughs more often! :)
We'll see him again, I have no doubt!
It was very useful video :) greetings from Poland 💪🏻😃
Glad you enjoyed - greetings back from Canada!
Hope to see more of these! Wouldn't mind if they were live or prerecorded. Can't always catch the live shows.
Thanks for the feedback!
Very nice video. Hope you do more!
Scott Welch Thanks - we'll try to!
Rodney! You won! I know I'm a bit late but I re-watched the series and you didn't count an 8 points in the 3rd column 2nd row! You would have beat Pep by a total of 4 points, and he knew it too, that's why he trashed the board!
If only I'd caught this sooner!
I love this segment, Rodney, but what happened with the youtube info? Between "we haven't tries this before" and "we're refine the process over time" I'm beginning to think you and Pep had a little to drink before this ;-) Haha. Looking forward to more of these!
Yakov Petrovich Golyadkin This is called scrambling to meet the "go" time :) Oh my, I have some correcting to do!
Prerecorded audio sounded a lot different than normal. Not bad but different. But love this new segment.
Jeff Briggs I noticed that too. I may just upload the instructional part separately from now.
Hey Rodney! I’m a bit confused, the rule book is generally unclear about a lot - especially why I would want to do something, and when I’m able to access certain actions/abilities. I was wondering if you could clarify a few questions:
1. Can assassins kill a meeple on the same tile you collected them from? You say, “other” tile in your teach, but your buddy here killed a guy on the same tile.
2. Can use my gins on any part of my turn, even on a turn when I don’t land on a “hire a gin” sacred space?
3. Can I activate all my gins in a single turn if I can pay for them?
4. In a 2-player game, do I activate 1 or 2 tile actions per round? 1 per player marker, or just 1 (the last player marker used) - per Section 2.5 of the Rulebook
Hey Scott,
1) Yes, the video should have made it more clear that it can be taken from anywhere "up to" its range.
2) Yes.
3) Yes.
4) I'm not quite sure I'm following (but it's also been quite awhile since I played. Does the game play of this video help answer that question for you, since we are doing a 2 player game here?
Watch It Played thank you so much for your help and your time 🙏🏽 and yes the video helped clarify
Hi Rodney, Just curious about this move that was done at 13:00, Pep decides to assassinate, Curious are you actually allowed to assassinate on the same tile? Wasn't sure if this was legal or not
+hansenyue Yep, it's legal: www.boardgamegeek.com/thread/1217413/assassin-questin
thanks Rodney :)
Fantastic job guys. I just bought the game and have a quick question; does Lamia allow me to place a palm tree on ANY adjacent tile, i.e even one that's not an oasis? I was under the impression that both palm trees and palaces are only placed on their respective tiles. Thanks and keep up the good work!
As I recall, yes, but I must confess, it's been a little while since I've had this game out since recording the video.
At 1:11:00 or so, you gave yourself 37 points for your resources, but you should have had 38 (sets of 1, 3, and 6 were worth 1, 7, and 30 points).
Andy Eisenberg Yep. Apparently adding 1 to numbers is hard for me! ;)
Hey Rodney @ 13:08 there is a play error. You cannot use Assassins to assassinate on the same tile you pulled them off of. That would be far too good :)
Where in the rules does it say that? I took a quick look and saw limits only on how far away the assassination could take place.
You're absolutely right. The way it was worded in the rules made me think it had to be ANOTHER tile. Here's Bruno himself clearing things up. I've played probably 6 games of this incorrectly :P

Bachpat Glad to help clarify!
if you lay the camel's on their side for each square as you count them it will help ensure you don't skip any of them.
Good tip!
I've gotten obsessed with this game the last 36 hours. Where does it rank for you? Do you ever rank games or do you believe in doing that? ty
I don't rank or review. At least not in any public way. I try to avoid letting my opinions factor into my content, and just show the games, and let viewers decide based on their own interests, if the game appeals to them or not.
That's smart. Let's face it, when we rank games, we usually change our minds the next month anyways. Thumbs up!
ps awesome awesome awesome awesome video, can u guess i liked it :)
so upset i missed watching live- curse thy job, a pox on the need to earn a living lol. Do you think you will do More live shows Rodney?
bazz krycek That is the hope! Glad to hear you wished you could have been there, maybe next time!
Where is the follow up stream link?
Peter Evans Yes, next time I'll have both scheduled in advance, so I can have a link for the followup chat, or at least post the link in the description of this video asap afterwards.
***** Thanks. It did come up eventually. I only missed about the first 5 minutes or so.
Was this game updated to include a card called "Fakirs" and that they replaced the Slave cards?
Matthew Winters Yes, that is my understanding.
You guys need a chess clock! You just hit it as soon as you finish your turn and each player has their own timer. It needn't make things more competitive, just fairer and quicker :)
It's something that we've talked about in the past! Thanks for reminding me of it so that I can look into it again.
They called them snails instead of camels. LOL!
They are snail-ish, right? :)
Did you ever see a camel with a shell on its back? Or a snail with two humps on its back? :)
Does it matter about sliding the Djiin as you can always take any of them?
Probably not, no :)
Once again, a game I had little interest in and WIP have changed my mind. I was a little worried about the tedium of scoring, but it didn't look to bad.
Glad you had a chance to check it out!
actually Rodney won by 5 point cause he missed the 13 points. 216 -224 but with the extra 13 it would be 229 to 224.
I caught that too. At 1:08:25 he skipped over an 8-point land, then mis-calculated a few seconds later.
Oh my!
Is there a follow up stream link ?
middleclasssolution I will be prompter about adding this in the future so it's easier to find.
I'm from toronto and I think you say "card" funny. "Kaurghd"
Yep, accents are a thing that people have. Eastern Canadian here.
The best thing is travelling to the US and hearing someone with a thick New York (or wherever) accent tell me we sound weird. Cheers!
I think Rodney got 55 from his camels, not 43 🤔
Maybe so, it's been awhile since I shot this :)
@@WatchItPlayed yes, it's from 5 years ago 😆
