As always thank you for watching! - เกม
Wow I loved the look of this game when it came out but then I saw it was multiplayer and I can only play solo. You have made my day. A solo version, thanks.
So glad I can make your day!! 😀
I am really looking forward to this video series. I have looking at Rebellion for a long while. I hope solo version works well. Thanks very much for doing this!
Thanks for watching!!
There must be something in the air... three days ago I wanted to see if someone created a solo variant. And then I found your videos. Thank you. It'll be my destiny to play this solo this weekend.
Good luck my friend and may the force be with you!!
LOVE. THIS. GAME. Can't wait for the solo variant! Let's hope it's good :) Thanks so much Collin!
Yeah it seems to be a phenomenal game!! I hope you enjoy the solo variant!
Very helpful video, thank you so much for putting this up. Really helped me to set up the solo version of the game.
Glad to help thanks for watching!!
I love this game and I am so happy you did this! Star Wars Games with your filming style= win!!!!!
whoot whoot thanks Gary!
Hi Colin: I am really glad that you have decided to try a solo attempt at this game. I purchased the game when it came out, hoping to develop some solo rules, but never got around to it. Your channel has quickly become one of my favorites. I like the titles you select and the professional way you present the information on the videos. I will likely be ordering the expansion as a result of your playthrough. Thanks again, Keith
Keith thanks so much for your kind words! Sounds like we like similar games! Appreciate you watching and commenting!!
Fantastic! Really appreciate this! PS Your interview with Ricky was great!
Thank you Kurt! Ricky was so fun to talk too!
I have never considered this game as I am heavily a solo gamer, but this video and the anticipation of the coming ones, has me excited for it. So much so, that I went to the game store at lunch and purchased it :)
Oh awesome!! I really hope I don't let you down. . . . The game is made for competitive play, so you lose something there. But Dale did a good job providing us with a way we can experience the game! Also note I am playing with the expansion, so if you just got the base game, you will not have the advanced tactic cards. You can also do combat the way Dale has it since he used the basic tactic cards! Good luck my friend, and may the force be with you!!
Thanks! Honestly just opening the game box up, I am glad I bought it. All those star wars mini's are awesome. A couple more years my son can play with me, and until then I can practice with the solo rules!
Ok GOOD!! Yeah I cannot WAIT until my 4 yr old son gets a little older and we can play this. Currently he is flying the ships all over the house instead of the board, but we are getting there! Step by Step! Thanks for watching and may the force be with you!!
Timely video. I just bought this game with the intention of playing that variant as well.
Nice!! It's a lot of fun!
Well done young padawan! Greetings from bavaria!
Thanks!! And hello from Minnesota!!
Wow, the setup looks very daunting, but I'm very intrigued and will watch your other videos in this playthrough series. Just FYI: There is a version 1.2 file of Dale's variant that does incorporate the expansion. I'd love to see a playthrough using that sometime. Also, it's cool how the influence track needs to meet the round marker in order to win, very much like Ark Nova.
Oh cool! I'll have to check that out!
I'm not able to find any updated file. They talk about it in the original thread on BGG but the PDF (annoyingly) hasn't been updated.
Variantception!
I'm curious to see how much this parallels the 1v1 game. So much of it is psyching out the opponent, I imagine something gets lost in the solo mode.
You have a good point David! As you watch the playthrough, let me know what you think!
Star Wars!!! Solo variant is a lot of fun. I hope you enjoy it. My game group had a blast playing through the campaign. We are waiting for more campaign missions.
So pumped for this! Even if it is not a true solo game, I find the solo variant enjoyable! I guess we shall see. There are campaign missions?!?!?! TELL ME MORE PLEASE! :)
One Stop Co-op Shop hahaha I looked at the title wrong. I thought it was Star Wars imperial assault!! Then started watching and realized I need to read the title better. Wow I feel like a moron :) still looking forward to this. Sorry for the confusion :(
No problem at all! I do this all the time so no worries. We REALLY need to find a time to get together. . We are in MN for goodness sakes! We close on the house June 28th, and then go to Alaska for 2 weeks. After that, life will settle down so I will see if we can get something together!
One Stop Co-op Shop sounds Awsome!! Hope everything goes well on the closing. Your not going to believe this but my family is taking a cruise to Alaska at the end of August. Wow what a coincidence 😆. If your going to be in Nome Alaska bring back some gold!! Have a great Father’s Day. Hope it doesn’t rain 🌧.
Competitive game is great except for combat. Your conclusion on the solo variant and expansion will be greatly appreciated. Definitely have to play the soundtrack in the background while playing.
Not even a question on the soundtrack! Have you played with the expansion competitively? Do you feel it helps?
Have not played with the expansion. Combat was clunky but otherwise an excellent 2 player competitive game. Game can run long unless the Empire destroys the Rebel base early.
Yes agreed. The expansion does not speed up const but does improve it. And I like the additional troop it brings!
"Excellent!"
Whooooottttt!! Let's do this!
Awesome
Thx!
I really appreciate this videos.. it has made the experience much better. I had a specific question, During solo gameplay, when the Empire draws a Project card to "Place a leader on a BlueSquare build icon in order to place a Star Destroyer on the Queue, if that system is subjugated (and no other BlueSquare Icons are available to the Empire: would it it still place the BlueSquare Production Value (Star Destroyer) on the Build Queue??? or would this project be unattainable at this time. Thanks Again!!
Matt Wilbat Just to let you know that Colin isn’t on the channel at this point, and I haven’t played the solo variant. So I sadly don’t have an answer for you. Sorry!
I am looking forward to your playthrough! Although, I am having an issue finding the variant at the link you have provided. It just takes me to the files section for the game on BBG. Please tell me which file is the variant? Thanks! -- Just want to let you know I found the correct file. I wasn't opening the files, just looking for one uploaded by Dale.
Cool sounds like you found it sorry about that! I will update the link so it gets you right to the rules! Appreciate you watching!! Good luck on your own adventures throughout the galaxy!
I am really looking forward to your next Arkham Horror LCG Carcossa Video :-)
HAHAHAHA Me too! Should be soon! So much going on!
Can't wait... I really like the style of your video. All the close-ups of the cards. Cutting and editing - just perfect. More Arkham LCG :-)
Thanks so much!! more Arham on the way!!
👍👍 2 thumbs up. Thanks.
Heck yes!!
Stop it, my wallet can't repel firepower of that magnitude :-P
HAHAHA WORTH every penny my friend. Such an enjoyable game, and you know I prefer co-ops but this one. . .Yeah it is awesome!
thanks wanted this but with where i'm can only play solo so my copy arrived today and just ordered expansion, should i just wait for that to arrive before i play? also do you know if there is a variant which you can play the empire?
Hey Co-op,
Question?
At the end of turn one you deployed your units, should they not go into the 1 box and deploy on the next turn?
Let me know
Great job thank you for the hard work
So how it works based on my reading of the rules is that you produce FIRST. So certain items may be placed into box 1. THEN you slide everything down 1 row, and anything in box 1 is then deployed. Does that make sense?
10:05 I’m with ya buddy!
Yessss!!!
I love this game so much. I've played the solo so many times. I do get a bit confused how to get the AI to execute death star lasers online at the right time as it gets random technical capabilities.
Totally get that the Death Star is the most challenging to play this way. Glad you enjoy the game solo!!
@@OneStopCoopShop Also you do a really good job of explaining how the variant works. Took me a couple of plays to figure it out correctly.
same here my man. Glad you felt the vid did it justice!!
Finally found another sensible human being that ranks Rogue One as the #1 Star Wars movie of all times. High five mate!
HECK YES! Glad I am not the only one with some sense! Rogue One was a fantastic movie! Internet High Five right back at you! Oh and thanks for watching!
Count me in!!! I love the movie!!! Love the acting of Director Krennic!!! Outstanding performence if you ask me.... 👍🏻
YESSSSS! Just a great movie overall that links together 2 series in a perfect way! I love it!
Rouge 1 is BY FAR the best of the Star Wars movies!
Yesssssss!!!!
so i still choose if i use the expansion cards or base game cards?
Rogue One *is* the best Star War, you will not die on that hill alone, friend.
Yessssss!!
Hi!! Could you put the link of this variant on the description of the video? I look after it on BGG but did not found!
Here you go! boardgamegeek.com/filepage/142973/rebellion-solo-variant
evening by yourself.... 2:22 this is a bit strange: P
Hahaha!!!! That did not come out right!
I wanna play this too, but I'm a solo player. Just one more question before I'm sold, is it worth just to buy for pure solo(no components left unplayed)?
Super hard choice. No components left unplayed really, but it is so much better 2 player. I do still enjoy it enough I kept it for solo play as well. . just in case! :)
@@OneStopCoopShop Nice! How 'bout the replayability? and is there a solo rule for the other side?
Replayability is good, I have not seen rules for the other side, as it is hard to have a hidden base right? A lot of people play both sides though!
One question: I really need to buy the "rise of the Empire"? Or i can Just play without It?
Play without it for sure!
@@OneStopCoopShop Thanks! But I will follow the same rules but not using the expansion? or there is an "adaptation of the rules?"
I adapted for the expansion. So you can just use the regular solo rules!
@@OneStopCoopShop Thanks!
Does anyone know where we can download the v1.2 file?
It should be on bgg!
@@OneStopCoopShop I got the one from 2017 but I see no v1.2. Did I miss something?
That might be version 2. It's in the same file section
@@OneStopCoopShop oh, okay. I'm definitely adding this to my ever increasing Star Wars board game collection. I agree with you about this one compared to the tactical SW board game. I just prefer a more grander scale.
lets see how this work
You liking it so far?
do you know site for playing solo?
boardgamegeek.com/filepage/142973/rebellion-solo-variant
this is site with rules. I saw site which emulate second player, decision etc
I wish. . . I do not know of this. If you find out please share!
Theres a Rebellion solo app? Whats that?
Ha I wish! The app is for Imperial Assault!
Yeah, I realized this after I posted the comment. Sorry I got really excited.
That is my fault, no problem! I wish there was an APP for the rebels so you could play the empire. . . that would be awesome!
