Well I'll be..... I've never played that way but sure enough you are right! That is silly I feel like those tokens benefit is that you could save them from turn to turn.. I'll make a note thanks!
Always love aeons end. A tip for your next play. If you have spare breaches leave your sparks in them. It's similar to taking them out the deck so you can get to the better cards faster. You can save them for minions with shields or when you need that 1 extra to kill a minion. Oh also when you gained a relic infusion card from the charges, that would have triggered the legacy slayers spell ability and you could have got a charge back
Thanks Colin for updating me to the latest Aeon's End expansion! :) Friends & Foes do seem like extra fun. The more I watch this game, the more I feel like it shines at 2 players more than 3-4 (not enough deck-building) or 1 (not enough life!), even if the turn order choice at 3 is nice. I've been day dreaming that someone has to invent a mega-boss mode where 2 or more tables of players face the same nemesis, each playing in parallel simultaneously with each their turn order deck, only making sure they sync' up every round... It could be dangerously fun, now, couldn't it? :) Take care!
Oh man that would be EPIC! they do this in LOTR LCG and I love those scenarios! I do feel like the friends and foe just add the right amount to the game, meaning it doesn't over complicate the game. I also agree 2 player is the sweet spot for aeons end!
I'm up to the 3rd nemesis already. Love how quickly the friend/foe mechanics go. Doesn't feel like this adds a ton to the complexity, but does feel like it makes interesting choices for the gameplay.
@@MeetMeAtTheTable The Coven was exciting! It was back and forth for a bit. But I started hammering away with some powerful spells. Might try to keep going tonight. I just got the expansion to Beacon Patrol and my gf and I are starting book 7 of Roll Player Adventures. Lots of gaming to do!
46:12 - Leisan should have taken the damage for Janti :) It is not just that she has to be targeted for damage dealt, it is that she takes all the damage dealt to mages. In love with the mage board holders!!!
Doesn't Janti's Redirection do 3 damage? The way I read the card it doubles benefits attached to or ON breeches. Doesn't this mean the +1 becomes +1/+1 for +2? Also to help you in future games at 37:20 you could have opened Janti's last breech for 1 due to the ability on the gem. Any abilities that can be used to focus breeches can also be used to open them
I don't think so remember I had the attachment that added plus 2 damage. So a minimum of 4 damage i think but then I get to reactivate the attachment for plus 2
@MeetMeAtTheTable That was later and you did 6 damage. (1 for the Spell, +1 for being in the 4th breech, +2 for the card attached to the breech, +2 for the additional instance of the cardvattached to the breech granted by that particular spell) I'm saying it should have been 7 (and 3 all the other times you did only 2 damage before the other card was added) because the wording on the spell should have doubled the bonus printed directly on the breech for it being the 3rd or 4th breech also.
It's just so good right? We actually did the same thing the legacy ones were not great so we stopped then recently got back into it! Thanks for watching!!
Great video!
FYI you must discard any unused aether tokens you have at the end of your turn, you can't keep them between turns.

very like your video! it's so great we can see words on cards so clearly in your video. look forward to your expedition 2
Thanks so much!! Appreciate your watching!!

Awesome idea!! Get those cards out of the deck until you need to use them i like it! Thanks so much for watching!!
Yay the first actual play of the Descent on UA-cam! The others were all prototype videos
Whoot!! Thanks for watching!!
It’s here! I can’t get enough of this game.
I'm with you the game is so good!! Thanks so much for watching and enjoy your plays!!
Colin single-handedly reigniting my interest in a game on my shelf. Gonna bust out War Eternal this weekend. Thanks for all you do!
Yes yes yes!! That is just what I like to hear have fun my friend!!
Forgot how much I like this game. I have an unfinished version of The New Age that I think I’m gonna break out on Friday.
Yes!! I agree it's one of those that whenever I pull it off the shelf I wonder why I don't do it more! So many good games! Appreciate you watching!!

Great playthrough video! My copy should be delivered on Friday, can't wait to play it!
Heck yes!!! Hope you enjoy it and thanks for watching!!

Totally agree! I just finished the second nemesis with my wife excited to try the next one!! Thanks so much for watching! I hear the 4th one is HARD!!

@SWholley so many great games!!!! Have fun my friend! Let me know how that final boss fight goes!!

In love with the mage board holders!!!
Thanks for that I'll make a note!!!
51:39 a satisfying heavy hitting turn, nice
Always love those!! Thanks for watching!!
My kids did not like this box art hahaha we're like 2 boxes behind right now, but loving it as always.
I can understand it's scary!! I can't wait to hear what you think of this one!!

@@beerman2000came here to say the same. At least we’re two who think that you’re right 😎
Got it my friend that makes it even better!! Holy moly!
I'm pretty sure I bought this game because of you. I meant, thanks to you!
Yes!!!!!! I don't even feel bad on this one it is worth it! Always great to hear from you Franck!!
@MeetMeAtTheTable I don't think I ever got a bad game from following your advice Colin.
@@Hybban Oh that is awesome to hear!! Glad I have not lead you astray!!
I missed out on this campaign
Oh BUMMMERRRR! You likely can get it in retail!
Really enjoying it. But the last nemesis of the storyline is kicking my ass. I need to improve.
My wife and I just took down the second one excited to see the last 2!!
I stopped playing during aeons end Legacy, but I have a couple of ones after it. Been wanting to get back into it for a long time.
It's just so good right? We actually did the same thing the legacy ones were not great so we stopped then recently got back into it! Thanks for watching!!
@ that game is definitely one of my favorites
where can you get a copy of this wave?
It's just delivering to backers right now, my guess is that game stores will get them once the ks has fully delivered! Thanks so much for watching!
@@MeetMeAtTheTable ok thanks

I always play non sleeved on camera! Then I sleeve after
@@MeetMeAtTheTable get some gloves to wear so they not oil from hands while filming ?
@JLH111176 haha I'll deal for one play!
