Five Parsecs from Home Solo Play, Episode 1: Unexpected Cargo

- Join me, JMBeraldo as I try out Five Parsecs From Home, a space opera solo miniatures game in which the story is created through random events and a lot of imagination.
This story was adapted to the science fiction universe of Veiled Space, in which Humankind is just another of the dozens of decentralized alien species considered too primitive to join the mighty League of Worlds.
This is an exercise in experimental storytelling, by using the game and random dice rolls to weave a story that is part of expanding universe, then tell it through video, with the help of Unity and my experience as a game designer and writer.

This was a fun BatRep! The added effects and voiceovers must have taken sometime, but they definitely added to the narrative, well done!
Thanks! I'm still figuring out a way to make this with less work, but it's been unexpectedly fun to edit and do the voice-overs. Let's see if I can keep this up for a whole campaign 😅
TH-cam just suggested this to me. This was brilliant. Well done! Subscribed!
Thank you! Stick around for a LOT more 😉
I’m very late to this party, but I am amazed at the production value of these episodes. What I love most are the great terrain and miniatures but also the fact that there’s no-one yapping about the rules alll the time but short text cues tell the whole story. It makes for a really high-paced and fun viewing experience.
Thank you! And you are not late at all! The parry just got started 😉 please check out the other videos in the series and let me know what you think. I'm editing a new one right now 🙂
Man, this is amazing!!!! I am looking forward to seeing more like this
Thanks! Check out the series in the channel! And there is even more to come very soon 😉
That was fun, great work! You deserve a million subs.
Thank you! I'll already be very happy if I get a thousand 😄
This battle field look so alive with all that immersive terrain! The added effects and voice overs were perfect! Those Niterians looked like Pyke Syndicate Minis from Star Wars, cool!
Thanks, Peyton!
The niterians are Pyke Syndicate minis :D Was one of the first batch of minis I bought for the game, so I never customized them. I've been playing with mini customization since, so expect more unique takes on the following videos ;)
One year late to the party, but I grabbed the rules recently, and been checking videos. Anybody that uses the ost of the Adventures of the Galaxy Rangers deserves a like, and a comment for the algorithm.
You are late to the party if the party never ends 😉
Join in, 'cause there is a new mission coming up this week 🙂
Don't miss the rest of the story!

That was fun to watch. Great way to show a BatRep. Like a couple of other comments I found it moved too quickly for me but I was able to pause (spacebar) at every dice roll to read the details; what was required, what was rolled which I thought was a nice touch.
I loved the sound effects, especially the footsteps. Brilliant.
Subscribed. Looking forward to the next episode (just going to watch it now).
Thanks a lot, Carl! I was worried to take too long with the videos and stop too much of the action, but I see this is a recurring feedback, so I'm definitely looking into it for episode 3. Thanks!
This is awesome! Keep up the good work!!
Will do! Episode 6 just came out this week. Let me know what you think about it ;)
This is awesome!
Wow... very cool!!!!
Thank you! I hope you enjoy the series!
Awesome report!
There is more coming! Check out the series if you didn't yet 😉
Really cool.
Well done. Clever
Thank you, Mark! Please watch the series and let me know what you think. Cheers!
This is really great! So refreshing to see such a different type of battle report and it must have taken a hell of a lot of time to put together! I hope you are suitable rewarded with plenty of views! Keep up the good work! ~ Gordon
Thanks, Gordon! Yeah, it's a lot of work, and I keep coming up with more complicated things for later episodes, but it's very fun! Let's hope more people find out about this series (and enjoy it!)
@@veiledspace It’s really impressive so I’m sure it will! All the best with the series!
This is epic. You’re onto something my friend. Keep at it! 🎉
Thank you! I hope you like the series! I got a couple more episodes coming up soon
Amazing amount of work goes into this, man! Thank you! Love, love, love the awesome retro-recycled props, just so cool! Fantastic!
Thank you! I collect a lot of interesting trash just for that 😅
These are so good I watched them all in one day. Excellent and thank you!
Thank you, Bryan! Hopefully I'll get a new episode up in a few days. It still needs editing, but life got in the way 😬
I hope you enjoy it!
Great work! One of the best approaches to batreps I’ve seen. Certainly not perfect in every detail, but to hell with that. The package is really good.
The narration was well executed and I liked sound effects.
The action cam style could certainly be done to even greater effect with exponentially more investment into your equipment, but serves the intended purpose really well even without unjustifiable spendings.
(Did you see that crazy thing goobertown hobbies did with that small movie company and their robot cams? By the throne!)
I saw that you’re looking for criticism. Maybe play around a little more with ambient lighting. Some coloured light sources can create a lot of visual interest.
But I don’t have any more than the above. In my opinion you’re right on track. You should just keep going in the same direction and growth will just happen regarding your skills and hopefully also your channel. To that end, you have my subscription.
Thanks, Björn! I saw Goobertown Hobbies teasers. Jawdropping! Almost quit my idea for this batrep after I saw it hahaha But seriously looking forward to the batrep they are doing with all that tech
Thanks a lot for the feedback! I recently got some lights to test out, probably on the 3rd or so video. Right now the only space I have to set up the table is my kitchen/living room, so lightning is not the best, but I want to improve on it as I learn what really works.
I'm also trying to keep the general equipment cost low for now since I already spend a lot on miniatures :D But will definitely add more to the whole production as things progress.
Thanks!
amazing :-)
Thank you! Anything specific you liked or disliked? All feedback is much appreciated!
I love the style, the dry humour, the tone and the amazing camera angles (which enhances the terrain and the miniatures beautifully). I find the screen looks a bit busy, which in itself is fine, but I* can`t read the writing as it moves on soooo quickly, which is terribly frustrating, as the words are interesting and useful.... but I simply can`t read them fast enough comfortably to keep up :-)
Thanks for the feedback! I'll definitely keep that in mind for Episode 3!
Love the cinematic approach, looking forward to see how it develops!
Thank you! I'm currently editing episode 4, so remember to subscribe so you don't miss it 😉
Very unique BATREP. I like it.
Thanks! Anything you felt was lacking? Anything specific you liked more? I'm looking for feedback on how to improve for the next ones ;)
Good job with the narrative! I'm loving that kind of battle report, especially as it is what I'm aiming for mine (in french, my channel is called Joe Solo).
One thing I would do if I were you is to try and have steadier footage, either by using a tripod or taking your time to take the shots. Also, I don't know which program you use, but in Davinci Resolve (free), you can stabilize the footage which helps a ton with that.
I'm definitely gonna check your next videos!
Thanks, Jonathan! It's good to see more channels focusing on narrative like this!
And thanks for the feedback! I've been testing different cameras and how to record. The first 2 episodes were just my current and my old phones. For 3 and 4, I added a DJI pocket 2, which I think helped a lot on mission 3, but got weirdly cranky on the first half of episode 4. Living and leaning, I guess 😆
Very entertaining. Love your sound effects and voices.
Thanks! I'm still figuring out doing the voices and effects, but I think I'm learning as I go 😁 fun fact: I wasn't going to do voices because I felt a bit embarrassed by doing it, but it turned out to be very fun to do hahah
Well done.... play through with a cinematic episode.
I great take on a Bat Rep and a challenging way to put a video together. Well done. Looking forwards to more :)
Thanks a lot! Yes, I may be a bit crazy with trying weird ideas 😅 Next one should be up around mid February, and I'm planning of a few short ones about the universe I'm adapting them from
Nice. Can’t wait for the next one!
Thanks! I'm editing the next one right now ;)
I've been looking at 5 parsecs as a possible future project. You just sold it to me. Excellent betrep. 👍
Just discovered this. Great presentation of the game. Subscribing and looking forward to more like this.
Welcome, DrVesuvius! I'm already working on the terrain for the next mission 🙂
Dang, those Niterians had toughness 5? I was really worried some of your crew wasn't going to make it with all the firepower they had! It looked like you were getting all your high rolls when you'd roll reactions, and all your low rolls when attacking.
I love the voice overs and effects! those are great! Very well done!
Thanks a lot! I don't remember how they had Toughness 5. They were Enforcers (tougness 4), but maybe the lieutenant had a +1 for some reason. Or maybe I just messed up hahah. Like I said on your channel, first time we always mess us :D
Absolutely love it! You've gained a new subscriber. What software do you use for your effects?
Thank you! I use Filmora for both visual and sound effects at the moment, but may be expanding on that in the future
Great video, nice little story you told here! What software did you use for editing and the writing, graphics etc?
Thanks! I'm doing most of it in Wondershare Filmora, since it has some ready graphics and animations. A few things I'll edit in photoshop, it's been very little so far.
Just discovered this channel
Where are the races from? Don't seem to be from legacy 5pfh. Any homebrew rules?
Great and immersive story
Welcome!
They are from a couple of novels and an RPG I published some years ago. Hopefully I'll get them available again and in English by the end of the year.
I'm publishing homebrew rules for 5pfh on the Community tab here. I'll add the new races in a post soon ;)
What is the ship in the picture and at the center of the battlefield? It's perfect for an upcoming rpg session I'm running!
It's a Enforcer Accuser with a little bit of modification. I was looking for a ship for this crew and came across it at a game store. I really like it! (But ended up making one almost from scratch for the crew)

Nice bat rep, very unique way of doing it, 5 parsecs is a great game. I really do like you table, nice use of building terrain with bits and pieces. My only criticism is the moving camera, I understand it add to your videos, will just a bit for me to get use to...and it is me, I'm just getting old( 63) and the quick movements take a sec for me to adjust to
Thanks a lot, Chris! I'll keep an eye out about the movement. I had that impression, but I wasn't sure if it was just me. Next video (coming up later this week) is already recorded, but I'll make sure to reduce moving speed for the next ones.
@@veiledspace It's not a big issue, just something I noticed
But it's a very valid feedback! I realized I sometimes move the camera too fast when I'm recording other things not for miniatures too, so maybe I just need to learn to be patient :D
