    I started sleeving my base game of Agricola... but now I've got the Farmers of the Moore plus every deck A-D and it's just so many cards! I have all the sleeves for it but now I don't know where I'm gonna put all the cards lol, they most certainly won't be fitting back in the box, that's for sure.

    Good and helpful breakdown of how to play. It got me and my spouse started! But what’s with that pronunciation of the game’s name? The guy says Ankh like it rhymes with the American nickname Hank. He says “Ra” with the right long “Ah” sound but leaves it out of the name of the game. 😮

  • @ronnieballs8145
    @ronnieballs8145 ปีที่แล้ว

    Really good video on sleeving. Great beginners' guide! I started sleeving with the Resistance and Exploding Kittens when crucial role cards and bomb cards had got marked to the point of revealing information after this. It wasn't long afterwards that I began sleeving almost everything. I'd say it can get out of control, especially when you start sleeving games you only end up playing once or twice. However, it's comforting to know that decades from now when you've got kids/grandkids, they should be able to enjoy games whose cards aren't damaged or shiny from greasy fingers. I've also noticed that less careful people (usually non-hobbyists, including kids) tend to treat your cards better if they see they're wrapped in plastic 😂 The process of sleeving is also incredibly therapeutic and zen-like. All the points about shuffling, box size etc... in this video are true and worth taking into account if you're thinking of starting. In my case, many boxes have lost their inserts due to the amount of space needed to accommodate sleeved decks of cards.

    Good job guys, one thing of note, when you steal the crown with an event, the person who had the crown stays as the first player for that round, then you get to be first player on the next round.

    • @Tuxedoian
      @Tuxedoian ปีที่แล้ว

      You actually have a choice, it's an optional rule that if the crown changes hands, the person with the crown becomes first player during the next phase of play.

  • @bgt2701
    @bgt2701 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    So this is how we play: The players of the merged gods always sit together (moving seats if necessary) and take single action turns back to back, (turn order proceeds as if there's only 1 main player) however they loses the ability to take the same action back to back if: 1. They no longer score last on the track 2. They are less than 7 points behind the leader. They can still take bottom then top action in this case. Solves all the problems at all player counts

    I've played 2 games. It was both times a confusing non-game. You build the wall and you get some soldiers and you try to get resources. You tick up some honour and after a handful of turns you are done?? Where is the game? The command cards seem really random as well, any card seems good.

    Osiris, is so impresive. It just spam miniatures in the table, in a combination with the mummy cats or the mummy, makes a great deal. All the games i have play, Ra make the most powerfull rush of points, its a good god for the early game. Isis it's good, nice counter to Anubis, but i feel it a little slow. Amon is the best god in games for 2 players. Anubis, i don't like it so much, but makes you constantly aware of his force. I havent played with the Phanteon expa, but at least, Seth call my attention.

    I belive the Merge works verry well in 4+ players games, but its awful in a 3 players game. I agree with the sitting position. We play like that as a house rule. The lower god moves to be right after the right one. That way they can comunicate cards by showing and poiting, instead of saying its name. And they always make their two actions in a row.

    Appreciate the video. Although, you missed some scoring details for defeating Horde cards. Specifically, players with at least one soldier on the defeated horde card get 2 honor. Also, players with archers in firing positions for the wall section get 2 honor per Archer. I was wondering why a player would opt to draft an Archer and this would make sense as to why.
