Awesome playthrough! Frostpunk is my favourite strategy game! Nothing better than playing it on a frosty day! Or on a cold night with a hot cup of tea!
55:00 you played it correctly. "Gain 3 engineers. Gain 2 sick engineers" means you increase engineers by 3 and engineer sickness by 2 (2 of the 3 new engineers were sick).
That was a fun playthorugh! Congrats on winning the game! I've only played it twice when I bought it and lost miserably both times. We just got plenty of snow over where I live, so I'm totally in the mood for some Frostpunk adventures again!
51:15 don't you pay 1 coal per use of automaton, and this doesn't go to the generator, is just spent? This game has so many rules... Love it😂 Great playthrough, thank you Colin!
Oh good question yes! But remember I have the automaton tech that makes them cost no coal so long as my heat is greater than the red indicator! Hope that makes sense!!
You don't drop spent coal into the generator, you just put it in the supply. You ONLY drop cubes into the generator during the generator phase and the number dropped depends on how much you heated the previous round. It's not a 1 to 1 ratio, you look at where the marker is and drop that many coal cubes.
Yup! Thanks for clarifying!! I think he was just confused as you normally spend coal to activate the automotons and i didn't have to because of the technology card. Thanks for watching!!
1:36:19 When you reuse a worker, you have to take the same action based on where the meeple is currently at. "Choose a Worker Meeple that has been used to perform an action this Round. Perform an action on the Building, space on the Supply board, or space on a Map tile that the Worker Meeple is on (that action counts as heated)."
What a fantatsic playthrough, thank you. Frostpunk is the only game on my shelf of opportunity and watching this is giving me the courage to give it a go. I'd happily watch you play this again and again.
Your timing for this play through is perfect! I just picked up the game over the weekend and I’m finishing up my tower and dreadnought painting project this evening.
Your pieces look so much better than the pieces I saw in another video. Did they come with a different version of the game? Is it an expansion? Did they upgrade the pieces over time?
I had the version that was already shaded so they look a lot better. I got this over 2 years ago so I don't think they changed anything! Thanks so much for watching!!
@MeetMeAtTheTable The version I saw was from the playthrough on the channel called Totally Tabled. The pieces weren't actual miniatures like you have here. Your version looks better.
during round 1, you could have used only 2 coal to heat up the Gathering Post as it actually was on a Near Tile.... but I have yet to see the rest of the round so MAYBE, you'd have needed the third coal anyways
I think the Advanced Automaton tech should have been on round 6, not 5. You add the listed number to the current round, so 1+5=6. This is my 3rd favorite solo game of all-time (and it's good for co-op too). I've played a dozen games but have still only played the default scenario using different societies and difficulty levels.
I always seem to have a hard time with Math!! I see why this game is amazing!!!!! Had such a great experience and Bairnt and I plan to play it live on Monday!!
The timing of this is solid because it's on sale with Boardlandia and I'm heavily considering it. Out of curiosity - how big is the table you play on? I know this game is a table hog and I THINK my 6x3 table would fit this, but I'm actually not sure!
Yes i think the dreadnought does make it a bit easier with the steel but it makes it harder to gather resources as you have less resources out on the board
@@MeetMeAtTheTable You have to add cards to the dusk deck as usual and draw the events. But it opens a trade option! Also it tracks the weather. Its really great, i like it

Couldn't agree more!! Really appreciate you watching!

Oh sweet! Ok wasn't sure appreciate you confirming!!

Yessss!! Pull that out and play it!!

Ahhh, clear, missed that 😊 thanks!
0 problems at all! Appreciate your watching this was a beast to play but so much fun!! Can't wait to try it with Bairnt!!

Got it I'll make a note!!

Yes yes yes!! Just what I was hoping to hear, get that game to the treble it is an amazing experience! Really appreciate you watching and commenting!

Oh HECK YES!!! I hope this helps you with your first game! Appreciate you watching and commenting!!!!
Colin, my friend: why did you have to try and get us frost-cold in the middle of November...? :)))
Felt thematic to me! Hahahahaah!! Thanks for watching!!

@Stranzua oh yeah his was retail version! Mine is a ks version!
@@MeetMeAtTheTable Sorry, what does KS mean?
@@MeetMeAtTheTable Ok. Never mind. Kickstarter version. Gotchya.
One of my favourite games played by my favourite solo boardgamers on youtube! YES SIR
Awesome!!!!! Thank you so much I LOVE THIS GAME!!
Love how they named Pauline after Paul Grogan.
I didn't even realize that!!! That is freaking awesome!
This looks so great, but so many people saying it takes 4-5 hours solo and the 2 hour setup time, etc. has always kept me from taking the plunge!
It is true... it's not one iv pull out often due to the length... but it's so good!!!
during round 1, you could have used only 2 coal to heat up the Gathering Post as it actually was on a Near Tile.... but I have yet to see the rest of the round so MAYBE, you'd have needed the third coal anyways
Good call!! Thanks so much for watching!!

My table has two tiers when I record but I do think if you don't have to worry about a camera a 6x3 should work! It will fill it to the brim though!!
So seems like this big machine make game more easy.
Yes i think the dreadnought does make it a bit easier with the steel but it makes it harder to gather resources as you have less resources out on the board
Have you tried playing with the app?
I haven't! Did it do all the tracking of the events?

@TMansboardgamechannel oh man that is cool!!! Thanks for letting me know!!

@TMansboardgamechannel aww thanks so much!! It was a beast to play but LOVED EVERY MINUTE!!
