At about 11:43 during the game, the white grasshopper entered the game next to the black ant. Wasn't that against the first placement rule? The white piece entered and touched black. Or did I miss something (as I often do)? Thanks in advance.
Cool stuff. I've played Hive a few times on BGA but still haven't fully gotten my head around it. I really want to get into it more though, if for no other reason than that it looks really cool on the table!
I spent about six months trying to learn Chess. I studied and played and played. I do not have the capacity nor the desire to memorize board states. Plus I’d rather get good at a bunch of games than master one. :)
@lovejunkie02 at 11:42 she placed a piece touching the other players color. When placing pieces you cannot be adjacent/touching the other players pieces.
This was great! Slow explanation and the talk through --- during game play really gave me a clear understanding of how to play. Wanted to ask. If you manage to get your beetle, on top of your opponents bee, do you automatically win?
What if a white queen bee has 4 white pieces surrounding it and two black. Let’s say the black piece was the last to move in next to the white bee. Who wins? Black??

I'm just trying to learn the rules and this also jumped out to me me straight away. Definitely not a legal move from what I understand.

You are absolutely right! It’s a pretty great game. I cannot believe how many moves I missed while playing with my wife. :)
@@riffleshuffleandroll that's me every time I play chess... I just don't see the obvious strategic moves and get routinely outplayed!!

Christina's grasshopper placement was illegal, right?
Probably. She likes to break the rules often =^)
THATS WHAT I WAS THINKING...wow that just confused me smh...
@@riffleshuffleandroll just as well she didn't use it to win a whole turn earlier
What did she do that was illegal?

Great question! From what I understand, you do not automatically win. You still have to surround the bee. Once you do that, you win!
@@riffleshuffleandroll thanks:)
I like your reviews,thank you .
Thank you so much. =^)
Illegal move 11:43

as long as the queen bee is surrounded that player loses, It doesn't matter what the colors surrounding her are
How was the bee trapped if it had two sides together that were free? Looks like the bee could slide out sideways.
One hive rule
at 14:30 instead of moving the beetle on top, why not move the queen? the hive remains in one piece, no?
The queen bee cant slide out. A piece needs to be able to slide out for it to be able to move
