The Battle of Ord Altum: (WOTC SW Minis and X-wing combined into one big game!)
Gabe gives a report on the conception, construction, and conducting of an epic, cinematic Star Wars battle game!
Using the rule sets from Wizards of the Coast's Star Wars Miniatures as well as Star Wars X-Wing (and, a good dash of homebrew) this dynamic scenario comes to life! Fighters zoom overhead, special ops infiltrate the rebel base, and transports are frantically evacuated.
Gabe takes us behind the scenes to see how some of the custom terrain was created.

The Annual J&G YEAR IN REVIEW: 2023 Edition (Our First Ever!)
Just getting into this as an adult with disposable income. Just bought 117 miniatures as a lot with characters from all eras hehehe super excited!
This was the exact video I needed. The explanation and cadence was perfection!
My husband and I were having game day yesterday and this was up for play. We gave up after the drafting phase (we drafted-passed-all the cards without placing any bunnies or doing anything) because we were so confused. After watching this we will try again today, this is so clear! Thank you so much!
Your writing style reminds me of The Cardboard Herald and its deeply welcomed! Great scripting and overview of not just rules but vibes too.
Literally a few hours ago I bought 370 figures for this game for a very good price, funny thing though, I bought one 3 figure box back when this was still sold in stores.
Great video! I loved this game back in the day and spent more than I want to admit on it. I played religiously from 05’ till 08’. Sold everything I had when I left for college. I still regret that decision to this day.
fantastic game, super hard to win because I'm always rooting for the Germans.
Thanks for the guide! Just used it today!
Amazing! I hope the game went well :)
I played the video game from a physical cartridge on Nintendo Switch. It’s pretty random with very little control over what cards you may gain (3 are offered and you may choose 1). Sometimes you reach the boss, sometimes not; it’s just a matter of trying enough times. It quickly became very boring. The fights themselves were okay effortless “fun”, but there’s no story, no lore, no world building, no character growth. Obviously I’m missing the intangible addictiveness and many fans boast how far they got. But it’s just you against a random card generator. The board game adds all the tedium of administration to this randomness.
Well... This is wild.
What a great review. So entertaining and enlightening! Nice work.
Dickens cute spider costume 😅 Thanks for recommendations! I echo Ghost Stories and Quacks of Qudelinburg are good Halloween games too
Those are some great additions to the list! 👻
such a great chanel , allways a great script and delivery. Congrats !
Thanks so much! Happy Halloween! 🎃
Cthulhu ftagn! Or is that "Cthulhu ftayn"? I could never quite remember coz I'm not in my right mind.... Which reminds me, our playgroup really needs to get back to scheduling for our AH lcg sessions. I need to try those mystic stuff.
Mystics are awesome! I generally go with Seeker or Survivor myself. I love snuffling up clues 😊
My favorites are Abomination: The Heir of Frankenstein, Horrified, Nemesis, The Bloody Inn, and Damnation: the Gothic Game. Thanks for sharing!
Abomination is great! ... If you play with the official Igor variant.
Excellent choices here! Nemesis is SUCH a great option for a dark, moody atmosphere.
Spooky list! I would think Ghost Stories and Quacks of Quedlinburg should at. least get honorable mentions :)
Man, the subtle puns ... the wry undertones... the clever phrasing... the clear telltale signs that you've actually played the game... superb. As for tarot sized cards... I love 'em. I love their feel and their tactical supremeness. Also... I love that my half century plus old eyes make them squint free. But I understand, everyone has their different annoyance points (mine are pizza box sized manuals you have to unfurl and read like you're looking for ants on a picnic blanket, instead of more normal sized rulebooks). Anyway, top notch as always.
Looking for ants on a picnic blankets is exactly what I feel like I'm doing when I'm reading one of those giant rulebooks! An excellent turn of phrase
I like your attempts to pronounce the company’s name 😅 I couldn’t figure it out either
It's tricky 😝
I think this game is fun to play!
the combining dice from the mother and father to get the baby's traits ... is a genius mechanic
What a great and well written review.
Thanks so much! And welcome to the channel :) glad you found us!
How many times did you have to practice the no look game flip 😂😂 also nice references snuck in there. I’d love to try this one!
Too many times.
Let's talk about hormones
😝
This game rocks!
I remember buying these as a kid at the local store. But I never used the rules or anything I just played with them like a kid would with toy soldiers. I still have all of them. The problem is the bendy plastic gotten sticky over the years. I remember my dad buying this big battle of hoth set for me one day.
The game looks incredibly fun AND the art is amazing!!!!! Dying to try it tbh 🔥🔥🔥
Finally! I can live out my teenage dreams from the convenience of my sedate life surrounded by comforts.
What a beautifully crafted game! Great review!
Wow, this video is incredible. Actually criminal how low the view counts are on this one. I love the passion this guy put into this review like with the interview and the little visual gag at 14:35. Good stuff. I'm been split on which version to get for a while but this really helped me cement Uprising as my choice as a first-timer. Excellent work.
Thanks for the review! Awesome costume! What does it cost to buy this game?
No problem, thanks for checking it out!! 🤘MSRP for the game is $49.99 :)
This game slapped. The perfect evening or night game for when you dont wanna set up and play 4 hours of 40k or star wars legion
Rockin! You really got into your role for this one. I *highly* suggest finding a copy of Sabaton's board game if you ever get the chance.
I'll have to give it a try!
Thanks for the spot-on review! And may I suggest if you really want to experience some '70s flavor that you forgo the coffee with rum and instead try tea with a bit of Amaretto and Cointreau? At least that's what they would serve at Jax!
Now THAT's something I've got to try 🕺🤘 the recommendation is deeply appreciated, and thank you for designing such an entertaining game!
Kids, don't buy candy. Become a pop star and they'll give it to you for free!!!
Love the game’s commitment to the theme- very excited to give a try! Great video and excellent costume.
Thanks so much! ❤️
I have More Than a Feeling that the game gave you Peace of Mind and you're Feeling Satisfied. Great video, great make up, great music references.
Compared with these references, mine are but dust in the wind. simply marvelous 🔥
im mostly intrested in the terrain for BattleTech
$300? LOL. $300 for Heroscape? Sorry, LOL, $300?
The painted version is very unaffordable outside of America to it really sucks.
I'm just settling with unpainted tbh it's so much cheaper
Such a fun concept!
Thanks! <3 If you really like it, make sure to check out our campaign today afternoon!
Thanks for this awesome video! ❤ We'll take a look at potions - just in case someone want's to print the game b&w! :)
That's great news!
Sounds interesting; I’d give it a go
Awesome! Thanks! Make sure to check out the campaign page during first 24-hours (launching today), to get a gift! :)
Awesome! Negaksaw and Mimring are some of my favorite characters to play
Both of those are some real classics
But here's the REAL question: Have YOU ever seen a Finn, The Viking Champion, without at least 1 broken ankle? 😂😂 Which is your favorite hero OR squad of all time, and why? Mine is Syvarris. Can't beat Double Attack at 9 hexes. 😤 Hahaha. Absolute classic!
Hi guys! Thanks for checking out the video :) I hope you find it entertaining & informative. You can check out the KS campaign page here, if ya wanna give it a peek (it goes live September 17): www.kickstarter.com/projects/twoacornsgames/dungeons-of-the-oak-dell The dice and the dice cases you can see in the B roll are from the lovely folks over at RolynDice. Their website is here: rolyndiceltd.com I hope your days are full of lovely games played with the best of company! See you around ❤
That intro was fantastic. Old Yellering it is one of my favorite phrases. - Adam
It’s back!! Some core memories made playing this with you. Mimring fan for life!!
Those were some great times ❤️ Mimring is so cool (a moment of silence for all the squads torched to powder by Fire Line Special Attack....) but Syvarris will always have my heart ☺️
Thanks for the review!
For sure! 🙌
