"I am the lich, Karereca the Terrible! Karereca the mighty! Look upon me dwarf and weep!" *Slashes at the dwarven nomad with his spindly fingers, reaving a quantum of his soul* "Bwahahahahahahaah! Foolish mortal! in what capacity do you dare to bare against me try and rob me of my unlife?" {Dwarven Nomad}: My axe... "You're what?" {Dwarven Nomad}: I said... my AXE! "It will take more then a mere A....ACK!" {Dwarven Nomad}: You're right but this is no mere axe, it is MY AXE! Also, F in the chart for Nat the Nat. RIP little buggy dude, RIP.

This was a lot of fun to watch. What a way to end it, indeed.

... R.I.P. - resting gnat, by the shield, on the mat 🪦You tripped over a fellow adventurer right after - coincidence? 🤔 - Seriously though, nice win! 🏆

Finally encountered one of those 28 Days Later zombies.

... that 11🎲11 was harsh! Awesome play through and narration as always! More play throughs? Yes please🙃

+1 for the algorithm.

So, it's Gloin from the Hobbit?

Watching right now! Let's Go!

Smashing the bug with the shield... Lose 1 on the morality track 😂

Great run! Excited for the hard mode

This one seemed to go by a lot smother the last few though why come you didn't attack the Hard Cycle Storage? If I'm reading the card correctly you just needed ? > 3 so anything 4 or higher could of done damage and you had a lot of left over 4 and 5s.

Absolute amazing job in explaining the game. Loved watching this!!!

Ozzlo without the Parry skill? [visible confusion]. Combined with Axe Mastery and... an axe, :) it makes you invulnerable to initial attacks. Otherwise, an incredible playthrough. Really enjoying all of them. Keep them coming. Also, check out Fortune, Fame and Glory by Joseph Mills with art by IH's Jason Glover - free PNP, punishing, push your luck. I think you'll like it. Cheers fron Bucharest!

...Nice win! Looking forward to the side B run, good luck - get it!!!

Very good game. Nathan made another roll and keep style mint tin game that caught my interest called The Blessed Dark, but it's not available anywhere. He was working on its "spiritual successor" but I don't think it's ever going to be released since the guy hasn't posted anything in a few years. The latter is on TTS at least. It's called Spire of Darkness.

I play Mini Rogue and the base game has 20 dungeon cards. In the rules, you place 8 dungeon rooms in the table with the boos card as the 9th face down and the rest of the cards are placed on the side. After completing the level, you shuffle the dungeon cards and place 8 cards for the new level. Personally, I don't do that and just reshuffle the unopened doors along with the unused dungeon cards. This is so that I don't encounter the same room too often. So in Iron Helm, maybe you could try to mix both OG and howling abyss dungeons while using sleeves to not know which dungeon card it is then draw cards up to the amount of each level (18 cards right? So 9 encounters per level if I'm not mistaken) then the unopened doors will be reshuffled, then is drawn back to the next level. Idk, just an idea to add more randomness for morality, poison, combat encounters and all. 😅

Did you laminate your cards? That is a brilliant idea. This game is a meat grinder! Awesome run though. Fun to see the tactics progress as you play more.

minor note - alas, you can't mitigate the Guard Level with Time/Coin... you can only mitigate the Risk value of the card, therefore you will always need to roll when trying to play an action (unless it is a 'no risk' action). So, for example, if you play a Risk 3 card, you can spend up to 3 Time/Coin to reduce that Risk to 0, but you will still need to roll higher than the Guard Level to avoid getting caught. Either way thanks for making the video and it looks like you owe the Doomed Monstrosity your life

Another awesome run. Hey do anyone else like the sweet smell of the mint tin boxes or I am just crazy like that?

Love me some Doom Machine! Speaking of dice manipulation solitaire games you should check out Deep Space D6 and Falling Skies. Deep Space D6 is one of my favorite solitaire games.

Wow, what a journey! I remember thinking it was impossible to beat Doom Machine at first too, but watching you progress and now moving to hard mode is truly inspiring. Your enthusiasm is contagious, and it feels like we’re on this adventure together. Can’t wait to see how you handle the new challenges! Keep it up, brother!

Watching now! This is a great game on a fantastic channel!

This video was a thrilling journey from start to finish! It was a smooth ride, but unfortunately, it didn’t end well. The battle with the Cyclops was intense, and those last rolls were nail-biting. Quick question: does the shield mitigate damage against the boss? I know it wouldn’t have made much difference in this run, but I’m curious. Your strategy and gameplay are always top-notch. Keep up the great work, and I can’t wait for the next adventure!

Another exciting play through, thanks! I was rooting for you BIG TIME! Re: the ‘stupid gnat’, I had a couple wanting to game last weekend also 😂

I skipped the Sanctum into a Stash hand all I got was this stupid Mimic!

I always try to keep in mind that Stash and Sanctum must be skipped. Like, all the time. 😅

Cyclops: "Fish yummy!"

y u skip ambush you have shadow

I sharded

What happened to the Crypt Crawler video? I was working and saved to watch it later, but now it's gone

Skin of your teeth! What a fun playthrough. I appreciate that you're like me in that you try to hew as closely as possible to the rules as written. However, sometimes I feel a game has missed its own point and I'm not shy about introducing "house rules" that I feel fix the intent. One place where i've done that with Iron Helm is weapon swapping. I know Jason Glover has been very specific about saying you can't swap weapons once combat begins, which puts you in situation like yours with that throwable axe being unsuable because you had the dagger equipped. But it seems to me that the weight limit in Iron Helm is plenty to discourage playthroughs with characters toting multiple weapons, so on the occasions when I do have multiple weapons, I want to be able to use them as needed, to take advantage of their, well, *advantages*! So I play that after each round of combat -- but NOT before initial damage -- my character has the option to change equipped weapons. Such a house rule might be beyond the pale for your purposes, but I do so hate having the perfect weapon for an encounter and being unable to use it! : )

"This is not a sponsored video." You know, given how much traffic you're driving to them I think you should be at this point heh. So close man, soooo close. It was a fun run with the mer-rouge necromancer but that frost giant just didn't have time for your sneaky malarkey.

This video was an absolute rollercoaster! The final battle with the Naga boss had me on the edge of my seat. When you rolled those snake eyes, it gave the perfect slice of hope right when it seemed like all was lost. The poison mechanic was brutal, but you handled it like a pro. Your perseverance and strategy truly paid off, making for a fantastic viewing experience. Keep up the awesome work, and I can’t wait for more adventures! By the way, I saw you tried going up on the morality chart with the Kroling. It didn’t pay off that much. Better run from the archangel and beat the dungeon. About the Shadow skill, I looked for some answers but didn’t find any. I’d argue that rerolling the 6 doesn’t apply since you’re not attacking with the dagger. You’re plunging and twisting it. Also, I’d definitely throw the axe-just pull it from your belt and throw it at the enemy! Oh, and you could have used the emerald to buy more potions, couldn’t you? I don’t know if it’s worth it, but anyway.

Idea for fate coin: place on plot deck. Easy reminder and shouldn't Matter since 0 weight

Never seen this game before. No kidding about expert difficulty, that was brutal. I was getting so much anxiety just watching you play. While the mechanics of the decisions were simple, trying to figure out the best choice for movement and attacking while remembering what was on the other side of the dungeon tiles definitely adds a lot of crunchiness.

Great playthrough as always! Shadow skill looks pretty strong & worked out well throughout....BUT - you must equip a Dagger to use it, I guess that's a kind of balance for it. Now you've got the Alchemy satchel you should be able to hang on to the Icehack for the next Boss fight to avoid the panic at the end! Hoping you add something else to it too - Artifacts/Enviroments - see how that changes things. Looks like your guy is going in quite strong so could handle it. BTW - how about naming these new characters? Maybe do a character creation at the end of a playthrough, ready for the next one, get people to shout out a name & you chose when you next play. Keep 'em coming!

This gave me a really stupid idea for a D&D character. A merfolk that specializes in scribing scrolls of Animate Dead. Call them the Dead Sea Scrolls.

Nice thematic build there. Sometimes it's fun to screw optimization and get into character. As for the shadow skill; if we take the wording as is then it seems it only works when the enemy gets an initial damage phase but... that doesn't really seem to make sense with what the theme of the card. For me, if there is going to be a limitation on it I'd rule that it can only be used when you pick an ambush first.

" I got ptsd from all this poison"😂

+1 for the algorithm

Dont forget, you had dodge. You should have less poision when you encountered the arrow trap.

That ending was pretty awesome. I like DD2 because it adds more variance. If you think it makes it too easy, you could always add the Beasts and Burdens and/or Realms and Relics content.

Merfolk gotta stay hydrated.

Great video, great ending!!

Dude, sorry for the off-topic, but I hope you checked "The Cursed Castle" at Game Found.

Nice one of my favorite play throughs

I feel like this is almost a whole new game with the addition of the character creation mechanic. Great vid!

Let’s go! I’m entering a meeting now, but the video is already open so I can watch it afterward! 🤩

I agree with needing a few more cards, i think there should at least be enough to not have to reshuffle during a normal length game. Even if they added a few double up fighters so like maybe have a few generic grunts in the deck to fill it out a bit and same with weapons maybe theres a few basic weapons that comes up a few times, i think all the secrets would need to all be unique though
