    Nicely done folks, your playthroughs are so accessible and easy to watch. You seem so welcoming and now here you are with the wonderful Mr Smith's channel. That said, I still watch yours too. Happy to see this games plays so well, as I bought it just as we went into lockdown, so it's never been played. So pleased to see it's a good 'un. I'll be bad at it though - planning ahead, bit of memory work - aarrggghh. But, while I'm being rubbish, I'll still enjoy. (noticed others mention the mispronunciation of our ridiculous place names you tripped on but hey ho, it was still clear and obvious) Thank you. More please.

    Hi guys, could you tell me how to interpret the rule on page 6 which says: "Your actions do not have to affect the current contested region"?

    • @WatchItPlayed
      @WatchItPlayed  2 роки тому

      You can play a card, and move cubes in regions that do not include the currently contested region. You'll find this explained in detail in the tutorial video here: ua-cam.com/video/V2fJQsYCl7Q/v-deo.html

    • @giuseppepagano871
      @giuseppepagano871 2 роки тому

      ​@@WatchItPlayed If we are referring to the 6.40 minute of the video you posted to me (and which I had already seen), well, then I must deduce that the regulation is poorly written at that point. Instead of "Your actions must not affect the current contested region", it should have said "Your actions cannot affect regions already assigned (with a disk on it)". Otherwise I could interpret as "Your actions must not affect the current contested region (where the next Power Struggle will take place)"

    • @WatchItPlayed
      @WatchItPlayed  2 роки тому

      @@giuseppepagano871 I'm not sure if I'm exactly following what you are saying (this is the challenge of trying to discuss over text, I suppose :) ).
      Here is the full rules of the section I think you were intialy asking about, as found on Page 6:
      "To take an action, you must play a card from your hand and resolve its effect. The effect of each action card is shown on the next few pages. Your actions do not have to affect the current contested region."
      This is just saying that when you play a card, the cubes it affects do not have to specifically be in the currently contested region. It could affect other regions instead. However, there are limitations, as the next paragraph says:
      "When resolving an action, you can never place or move followers into controlled regions: regions with a control disc or an instability disc. Once a region’s power struggle has been resolved, its allegiance is set for the game."
      So although the pieces you affect don't have to be in the contested region, they CANNOT come from or go to a region that already has a control or instability disc.
      Hope that helps!
