Your video saved us at Origins because the rulebook looks like someone got paid by the word in the rulebook! Thanks!
Glad to hear the video helped Ray. Hope you had a great Origins :)
🤣
Your are, by far, the best game board explainer on youtube! Thanks.
You're too kind - glad you enjoyed Denis!
Late to the Mexica game...been wanting it for a while and just received mine today...can't wait to play it!
Thanks Rodney for a great rules layout!
You're very welcome - glad you found it helpful!
I LOVE YOU RODNEY!!! Man, your videos are FANTASTIC!!
+John Hernandez Thank you for checking out the video, John!
Nailed it, above and beyond, thanks for sharing your time.
Very kind of you to say.
Thanks for this Rodney! Wow there were far more rules that I missed than I thought for a fairly straightforward game
Glad to assist Tyler!
Very clear and helpful video! Much appreciated.
Glad you liked it Jelly!
Fantastic video. As a Mexican and from Aztec descent myself, I wasn't offended at your pronunciation at all! You speak English and I don't expect you to speak with a Spanish accent.
Well done!
Keep playing games!
+rhcp27la I'm pleased to hear this, thanks :)
Great video. Thank you very much!
+Rinaldo De Lucca Gad you enjoyed it Rinaldo!
***** Unfortunately Mexica will not be available here in Edmonton before December 2015... :-P
Thanks for teaching!
Hey hey Ignacy :) Have fun playing!
Crystal clear and thorough as always! good job!
Thanks so much!
Nice!
Can I use the Emperor's Palace to help to create or divide areas, like I use the canals?
I think I saw you got your answer at BGG :) I lent my copy out, so I was going to go check there for you.
One remaining question, can you jump on bridges from the side?l from land? Like if the bridge was on a corner of a canal, or can you only enter bridges from the front and back?
Movement in the game is always orthogonal, never diagonal (and you'd have to move onto the bridge from one of it's sides that down the land) Hope that helps!
Thanks for the video. This make the game look interesting.
It looks a bit like Medina: the way that the city/island is divided and parts claimed What do you think?
+Prince Anon Glad you enjoyed the video! Wouldn't want to try to compare it against other games, as I think each person will see it differently.
Your version has the earth toned resin pieces, but I have seen pictures
on BGG with brightly colored plastic pieces. How do I know which version
I am buying?
As I understand it, the version that shows iello's logo is the one I have here.
Whoa this is finally being reprinted? Nice. I don't like the new box design though, the original was really cool.
You made a mistake at 10:02 , those bridges are actually connected, you can not really reach it through the canal,but you can if you go into the lake and then into the other canal.
Very good explanation and diction, quite clear and easy for non-native to understand your video.
Hey Murilo, those bridges aren't actually connected, because you'd first have to travel to the bridge on the right, and THEN you could travel from that bridge through the lake to the other bridge. See what I mean? The two bridges I discuss at 10:02 are not directly connected, as their rivers are not connected at that corner, and if you travel to the right, you instead hit another bridge. Hope that helps.
@@WatchItPlayed I see your point, but you said that "they are not connected", ok, they are not immediately connect using one action point, but they are connected in a broader sense as long as you pay the price, like the other bridges you traveled to in your explanation. I have put myself in the shoes of someone who is watching your video and has many doubts about the rules. I guess it got kind of ambiguous the interpretation.
@@MuriloFlavioMoreira Yes, at that point I was speaking of connections in terms of direct connections. You are correct, that if you spend additional points, you can create a path that eventually gets you around to that other bridge as well. Either way, I'd say I'd sounds like you have a good handle on the rules - thanks for checking out the video and have fun playing!
15:14 there are 4 bridges ( 2 of them lower right) with steps leading directly into water. Is this correct?
I shot that awhile ago, but my guess is that I had quickly set a few pieces on the board, just to show the game further along, and failed to correctly set those bridges. Sorry for any confusion.
Just found and bought this game still in shrink rap. We played it and had one question. In a three spot district if a player is on one space puts a district tile on another and builds a temple on the other. How could someone else get points? Even though the district tile has 3 2 and 1 pts on it.
Hi Brad, I do my very best to help with the rules questions, but I shot this long enough ago that I don't remember the rules to this one as clearly, and I lent my copy to a friend, so I can't easily look up in the rule book for you.
Nice video as always, Rodney!
Since you were setting up for three people, does that mean a little gameplay is coming up? There's no dice rolling, so Luke won't totally trounce you!
+Jamison VanLoocke Not "totally" :) We'll see about a game play. I'll have to see where we are at once Gold West is over :)
Great review! Just a note, the X in Mexica is pronounced as a ‘SH’ sound.
Yes, I wish I had done better research on that. It's something I try to be more aware of these days.
10:00 Aren't these bridges connected by the lake, even if not by the canal directly?
+Marco Curvello Yes, but not along the path that I'm showing, and not without crossing another bridge (which would cost an additional action point).
+Watch It Played Got it. Thanks!
In the event that the emperor demands two districts of the same size say size 4. If I were to carve a district of size 4, are both tokens placed in the one district, or do I need to build a second district for the second token to count.
My understanding is that you'd need to carve out a second district.
+Watch It Played that's what I thought as well but I've played with folks who insist in double dipping in that.
You need to carve out a second district!
Thanks for the confirmation!
Hiya can you build in a district while standing on an a adjacent bridge?
Usually I do my best to answer all the questions on these videos, but I lent my copy of this game out, so I can't look up the rule for that unfortunately.
Thank you for the reply.
Awesome video Rodney, as usual. I wonder what were the expectations of the user who rated that video down...
+Daniel Lavoie Oh, we usually always get a few thumbs down. That's okay, people are free to vote as they like - I'm just happy if they take a moment to check the videos out :)
+Watch It Played Those darn kids from Board With Life! :P
Greatttt
Thanks :)
if 15:26, wait, bridges going into water? Were these placed randomly, or are you telling us you can ruin a bridge by placing water on the opposite side?
+David Davison As indicated in the video, you cannot place canals on either space adjacent to bridge ramps - what you are seeing at 15:26 is an unfortunate oversight on my part as I attempted to illustrate the game near the end (by placing components quickly onto the board). I overlooked how that would effect some of the bridges I had previously placed in the demonstration. In a game, those situations could not happen if players follow the rules. Apologies for any confusion.
Pep! You look so different.
+Ranerdar Must be the glasses!
The game looks good. Only like a corious, I, like a mexican, can say the pronunciation is :
me
(the sound of the pronunciation of the english word he)
ca.
And for general culture, the lake in when the city was build, is Texcoco lake.
salutes.
+cidroq Yes, apologies for the pronunciation - I spoke it like a Canadian.
its a littlenes, don´t worry
+cidroq Pleased to know the correct way, thanks.
+cidroq That's the Spanish pronunciation though. In Nahuatl it would be pronounced more like "May-shuh-EE-kah".
Me gusta mucho tu pais y la historica de Mexico. Y por supuesto la cocina. ; )
you are totally right, aztecs speak nahuatl
At 10:00 you say that one bridge is't connected with another bridge. But after you say that you can use the lake, and with the lake both bridges are connected.
Sorry I'm a wiseacre. :P
+Dryorophus They are not connected along the path that I'm showing, and although it is connected through the lake, not without crossing another bridge (which would cost an additional action point).
LOL. it probably should be pronounced *Meh - HEE - ca*
Probably!
Since the games about the people of Tenochtitlan, should it not be pronounced May-shee-ca, as per en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mexica - sorry it just bothered me every time you said the name as if it were just like Mexico.
+Tim Lawrance Though I don't intentionally mispronounce things, and where I'm aware, will attempt to be accurate. You can generally expect me to read words through an English filter, as that's the language I speak.
