Nick, thank you so much for this. Gaia Project is such a beast of a game for those that didn't come up with TM and these commentaries REALLY help me understand how this game is played at a high level. My partner and I are obsessed with GP, a table dedicated to ongoing games, reading statistical analyses on BGG, and watching these videos has helped me contextualize what we've been picking up on. At the end when you said "going up nav means you're not setting tempo" and seeing the state of the ivits endgame score, something big for me clicked in considering the other research tracks and their impact. I particularly like in these videos that you're not just rifling off what happened in the game but that you're taking the time to explain and prioritize the thought and strategy behind the moves. This is super high quality commentary, thank you.
Wow, very kind feedback and it's absolutely what I'm going for with this channel. Thanks for taking the time to let me know that it is working for you!
I hear you mention “worker” all the time and I have no idea what this is referring to. Pretty sure this is not part of usual Gaia project terminology.😮

Hey thanks for the analysis! At 3:34:55 maybe you missed the big building tech tile making Blakes academy worth 5 power?
I think I did! Wonderful catch
Excellent job Nick especially for not being able to see a good bit of what happened lol. It was fun to hear the commentary.
Thank you! I can get caught up in making a point and then miss a move - it's a lot to tackle!
What's the white card they're passing along?
It's a turn order card to indicate who is going

It's not, I mention it at the beginning. Worker is ore. I'm primarily a terra mystica player
@@phoenicksgamingI had speculated that this is what you could have meant. But you also refered to ore as ore, which is where the confusion came from.
