My favorite thing about all digital adaptations is how streamlined they are. I've played Root in person a few times and the games have taken forever because people are constantly pulling out rulebooks to double-check things. The downtime between turns is excruciating. That doesn't happen in digital versions.
They certainly cut down a ton of downtime!
I usually prefer board games but it is true that the online version goes way quicker.
i dont have that problem because if something feels wrong we can check it after the game, and if something seems broken or like it shouldn't be allowed then we can quickly check it
it also helps that my friend can quote the law like the bible
"This game is about checks and balances" that's a pretty helpful note!
Caleb Yost absolutely! Couldn’t have said it better. ❤️
Woodland alliance is probably the hardest to play with. My favorite is the Eyrie just like how things can fall apart if you don't pay attention to everything
Aw man, if you hadn't gone for the two free Marquise buildings, the two actions would have been available and it would have worked out exactly with the 2 Sympathy! So close!
Wow that 15 point turn I really thought you had it! Good game 😊
kaytie rose me too. Thank you so much for watching :)
I greatly enjoyed this video - thanks for commentating everything going on. It helps me understand the game. I just recently purchased all of the Root board games / expansions available and also downloaded the mobile app to learn to play, and this was quite exciting and helped me understand a bit more. Thanks!
That was great! I like your informed commentary. It helps follow the overall action. More of this, please!
Gary Faust more coming! I started live streaming and those livestreams are coming to TH-cam too! But if you want to watch early! Twitch.tv/lordeoftheboard :) thanks!
This is sick! Loving that you are sharing your thoughts process with us. I can’t wait to see the end results!
haha thank you for watching! i want to do more videos like this.
As someone who hasn't played any version of root, this looks like a great way to dip my toe in.
I could use Tabletop Simulator, but this looks great and would szve a ton of time.
Play :)
Take a look at Armello as well.
Awesome video, and I'm very new to the game of Root! These type of videos will really help me learn a lot more, and I hope you cont making them! I would like to see some gameplay of all 4 in action, and the plays that you perform! :)
So glad they are helping :)
I loved your content since the beginning of ROOT board game as well as all the Villainous + Dune videos. I feel like the online environment do enable more and more strategies and I'm looking forward to what the game has to offer in the future!
Thank you so much! I appreciate that. These are all some of my fav games! So I’m glad to bring more and more exposure to them! :)
Loved this type of content! Would be awesome to see daily/weekly games on the channel! Super cool to see your point of view and thought process. I never really thought of the game being a game of "Checks and Balances" but you're so right. Keep it up!!
This is a great idea!
I love the digital version... can't wait for the Duchy to be added!
Any news on this? I've played with friend OTB and we would like to have a championship, we can't always meet so the digital version would be perfect, but we'd like to use all of the factions
Doesn't get any closer than that! Great game, please do more of these!!
ccrunnertj definitely going too! I also just started a twitch. So you can watch last nights stream on there!
Great video, bought right after watching it was totally worth it cannot wait to see if they add the expansions.
Hope you enjoy it!
I really liked this!
won an online game immediately after watching! so many helpful tips, thanks!!!
Wow! So cool! And excellent job :)
great game! Nice to see that its possible to come back from behind. I guess it needs some luck to push though. In an offline game, I would see myself doing a lot of convincing and negotiating...
I think i could have one. It was a misplay earlier that stopped me :(
If you hadn't attacked the buildings at the end and instead just used your actions to spread sympathy you would have won. Because you were two points off, and your next sympathy was 4. And the buildings gave you 2. So just spreading the sympathy would have given you exactly 30.
jackskellingtonsora the reason I miscalculated was because I accidentally skipped my daylight and was going to train an officer. Which would have given me the 6th action I needed to get the last sympathy. But yes I could have done that before. It’s hard to catch those things sometime 😂 I just had a 21 point swing on stream! And won
@@LordoftheBoard Oh your swing was super impressive regardless that turn before. The way you kept the cats from winning was pretty spectacular. You just missed that one detail to exploit the swing and blocking of the cats and win.
You had no warriors left to train so that would not be possible. You should have spread in the bottom mouse clearing. Than moved fight the two cats buildings. Make a warrior sympathy there en then do the move up top and then organized there. That's 5 officer moves and 32 points and the win. But easy to say afterwards 😅. Like the playthroughs! Keep it up!
thankyou for the content, your channel is rad
Thank you so much! :)
Can't stop binging these videos haha
Great content
Thank you! Did you see I released a live game? :)
@@LordoftheBoard keen to check it out!
This is truly amazing
Hey thank you! Is this something you want to see of on the channel??
I love this kind of content I’m about to get it and I’m trying to understand this game the best I can beforehand
So glad I could help you out!! :)
I feel like this is the kind of commentary I needed to get into this game
Oh perfect! I have a whole playlist of similar vain! Hopefully it helps :)
I'll definitely play with you. How do you want to organize the gameplay? I think this is a great adaptation of root. The game needs some sort of undo feature or "are you sure," option during turns. An indicator for the chat window would also help.
I messed up a game myself by round 1 turmoiling.
Logical Gamer yeah in this game I have a mess up where I accidentally pushed past my daylight phase 😭 yes for sure! I am on steam and discord. Dm me or email me and I’ll give my handle!
Thanks for the video.
I love this game! Can’t wait to the corvid conspiracy is available
Great port.
Need those expansion factions, partisans/exiles cards and maps...hopefully soon as DLC.
Also an undo button, as long as you can do it before spoiled info (ie card draws). For example when I accidentally put in the wrong decree and want to immediately change it...that’d be nice
Big agree 🥴 I’ve made some rough mistakes
Okay this online version is SO cute!
SparkletheBunny I know right? :)
7:44 *Slaps the shit out of the cat for no apparent reason*
LOL
good stuff!
Thank you :)
Wow! This looks better than the actual board game
It’s really really good
they should implement voice chat... and i think this is mostly covered, next step would be a video conference and you got your ROOT ready :D
I would really love if the digital game used animated meeples instead of these dead-eyed puppets. :(
That would be cool! Mabye itll be a skin pack someday!
My thoughts of the digital root game is actually pretty positive. It captures the game really well. The tutorials are very clear on how to play.
Patrick Spragoo torally agree! Great tool to get people into the boardgame and for players to be aware of small rules they may be missing. There are a few adjustments needed! But it’s still early access and they are working hard! It’s wonderful.
Lord of the Board with that in mind, I do also hope they add in all the expansion factions. I heard a rumor the clockwork expansion factions will be thrown in.
Patrick Spragoo yeah! I’m a little confused about that. But I’ve also been hearing. Does that mean it’ll replace the ai? 😂
Lord of the Board maybe because the current AI does need some well deserved work.
Enjoyed the playthrough :) Thanks! Love the Woodland Alliance.
Did you know all the players or you were just calling them all ‘he’?
I didn’t know all the players. Only some. It’s a bad habit! Thanks for informing me! :)
@@LordoftheBoard Appreciate the response. Really liking your channel!
Really good. Record other factions too so we can see the thought process!
Definitely will!
Lord of the Board ya. I assume producing these isn’t too hard. Screen capture and mic record and good to go.
I haven't played in a while since it was released, but I thought it was a faithful adaptation. I had some gripes with how slow the animations were and how you couldn't skip battle animation. I brought it up with the developers and hopefully they address it.
Well if you decide to jump back in I’ll play with you! I agree about some small things needing some fixing. Overall some seriously great fun!
There is now an option to fast skip the battle animations
@@TummyRubz How?
the fun will be if the marquise will use brutal tactics and you will win : D
Indeed!
Lord of the board? More like Jester of the board
I just bought the digital version of the game and Im having a blast.
YES thats awesome!
Wher do you buy it?
Id love to see some tts version with tabletalk.
How about live version? Or do you prefer tts? :)
Does anyone else have information on if there will be a riverfolk digital expansion ? Just curious !
Yeah! They are releasing early 2021! Now that the clockwork expansion is released :)
I love root online
So do I!
as the vagabond, can you give aid if you don't get any items from the faction you're aiding? Also; can you craft items that are no longer on the item tracker?
You can aid without gaining an item. You cannot craft an item if it isn’t available in the item track :)
I'm confused. I played the tabletop version and as Alliance I always start with a Fox card and Two Birds while my hand stays as 2 Mouse and 1 Bird, but you got 3 Birds in your opening hand. Are you playing on a different set up of rules for turn one, or is this set up is randomized on opening hand?
We use Zoom to table talk
Are they going to release the other factions and other vagabonds variant in future updates???
They are going to in time yes! :)
They should make this into a board game!
Haha I am going to consider this a joke and I laughed. But just in case. This was based off the boardgame of the same name!
@@LordoftheBoard Yeah I know ;)
I'm having difficulty finishing the Dominance Challenge for Woodland. Do you have any advice?
I am also having troubles with that one. So I sadly am of no help here :(
@@LordoftheBoard Finally I've beaten the challenge using opposite corners domination!
What is the turn one turmoil strategy for the Eyrie? I can't seem to be able to find an explanation for this strategy.
I made it up. I’m sure others have done it. But I am releasing a video next week showing it in action :) basically you put a bird card and another suit card that matches your starting clearing in recruit with the charismatic leader. Then get 12 birds. Go into turmoil and choose despot
Or another leader. But you lose no vp and have tons of birds right off the bat
@@LordoftheBoard Thanks for the explanation.
What an exciting game! I learned a lot. I try to play the Woodland Alliance on the app against AI, but it seems like the Vagabond and Marquise ALWAYS attack me every single turn.
Also, I know French isn’t everyone’s forte (see what I did there?), but it’s pronounced “mar-kee doo kat,” and is a portmanteau of “My Kitty Cat” when said quickly enough. :)
Thanks so much for watching! Ahh that can be a problem. I have definitely enjoyed playing against live people more so far :)
Interesting see originally I thought so too but I saw that it is Marquise not Marquis. Marquis is pronounce Mar Kee
But Marquise is the female version pronounced Mar Kees. Lemme know if I’m completely wrong 😂 thanks for commenting!
Lord of the Board By Orin’s beard, I did more digging, and I think you’re right. That bothers me because it ruins the portmanteau! Though I suppose it does refer to the Marquise as a “she” in the rules. Mar-keez it is, I suppose!
Jedrek Roscoe totally! But I still like the marquis port you speak of! :)
if i may ask a question
Brutal tactics doesn't award a point against a defenseless situation?
Brutal Tactics just deals and additonal hit. Defenseless would already deal and extra hit. So with both you get 2 free hits :)
Trinston was here .
Woohoo!
Go tinker!
Caleb Yost sounds like a tinker main to me...
Waiting on the Switch version.
I can’t wait for that!!! :D
I love love love steam's Root.
However, they only allow four players. I wish they would get us up to six.
Hey, I am new to this game and I am just starting to learn how WA works. Can you or anyone tell me how does 44:35 battle works, I thought you only get the higher dice roll only if you are defender, meaning when someone attack you but in that battle WA is the one that initiate the battle. Not sure if I am missing something, theres just so much to learn and remember in this game. Thanks xD
Hey! So the WA actually have a special ability where they get the higher roll as defender and as attacker :) likely because their troops are so few. And so their warriors are very resilient
@@LordoftheBoard is it in the rule book? Cause on the board it said defender or is this a updated rule? Just want to get this clear since I am going to play the physical version of the game and just wanna make sure everything is by the rule cause it might determine how the game plays out. Thankss.
@@TheEquilibrum007 yes it should be on the board and in the Rulebook under “gurilla warfare”
@@TheEquilibrum007 np at all :)
@UC24aRJbbAG6WLoINoc9T2rg yeah so they get the higher attack because it is in battle. Every faction gets the higher rule when they attack is kinda what I am saying :)
hey, why does vagabond goes second? i thought he goes as fourth
WaitingForNovember hey! Turn order is random :) setup order though is always the same!
Just got it 2 days ago.... get so confused on suit of cards and cost and how to use them
Yeah it can be pretty complicated. I think what helped me most is to realize that the suit isn’t always the same suit as the cost. And some factions care about just the suit of a card. All factions care about the cost for crafting.
@@LordoftheBoard Thanks a lot, so the cost is always listed in bottom left, so "paying the cost" just equals CONTROLING the same clearing? Say cost in card is 2 bunny, then all I need to do is CONTROL 2 Bunny clearing? only thing i need to do is discard that SINGLE card... correct?
Why 5 officers and not three? I feel like 5 officers keeps your bases too vulnerable.
3 you can only get 1 move and organize in. With 4 you can get 2 so I usually go minimum 4. 5 sometimes when I realize I can win. Like in this case
@@LordoftheBoard Hm. I see your point. I'm just wondering how you defend your bases because you can totally lose all your supporters if they die.
you should open a discord channel for people to join and start games from... This would fix the table top issue
I have one just isn't currently public! :) working on improving it!
@@LordoftheBoard let me know if you want more players :D
37:55 why does it trigger outrage?
does what? sorry i tried to find in the clip but I couldnt seem to!
@@LordoftheBoard when another player has to give a card to the alliance as a follower, he uses field hospital and then gives you one follower card and I wondered why that happens
Thanks for the video! After looking at couple of the games you played here on the channel and thinking of how the game works, I can clearly see this game is unbalanced and unfun for me. I have a lot of friends trying to tell me it is the best game of the decade but it is an unbalanced checks and balance game, just as you mentioned. Clearly a fun evening of whatifs in the right company but mostly a frustrating train wreck that takes your motivation and shits on it by allowing certain players to dominate and snowball without much to do against them even if you notice it early.
Hey! its not for everyone. No asymmetric game can be truly balanced. But a lot of the balance is the table. It is my favorite game of all time. haha
It’d be nice to see how many more actions one can take, just a small marker or text on the bottom of the screen or somewhere noticeable
That would be awesome!
