    I recently had a group of friends invite me to play TI for the first time. I have yet to play but I am loving the way you explain each of the factions. It has been helping me get up to speed very quick!

    If you must take a yellow tech, I'd highly recommend predictive intelligence.
    The ability to shuffle around CCs in the final rounds can be the difference between an epic round and "meh".

      Yeah, that is actually a good idea. Flexibility in the end game is key, so having a few extra command counters in your tactical pool can make a difference :)

    I’m a big fan of your content. We have a decently sized over the table group out here in Taiwan, and I’m personally heavily involved in the asynch discord server.
    Would love to chat with you about how you might improve your channel, if you feel inclined. We’re always available by email.

      Congratulations and well done! :) Was it a close race?

    • @Tuloth
      @Tuloth 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@essersgamingcave It was! I think I got about 1 VP ahead around turn 5, it stayed close, I got to 8 and the second 2 point objective flipped as 10 Trade Goods, which I had a decent stock of as Mentak

      Thanks for the follow-up! Well played, keeping some of the well earned TGs, for that objective :)

    Great stuf!, when is Necro vid due? Necro and Mentak are my two picks for my upcoming game..

    • @essersgamingcave
      @essersgamingcave  ปีที่แล้ว

      I have received a few faction requests, but all on different factions, so I have created a poll in the community tabs. You can vote for Necro there, and then see which one will be next :)

    • @Toftolus
      @Toftolus ปีที่แล้ว

      Nekro is out now, maybe a little to late 😛

    Can mentak pillage a tg off someone who has trade? they gain 3tgs can mentak take one ... or is it - the player needs to have 3 tgs already on their player card. Great Video Keep Them Coming!!!

    • @essersgamingcave
      @essersgamingcave  ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, Mentak can Pillage 1 out of the 3 trade goods another player obtains through the Trade Strategy card. The timing window for Pillage is '"After" a player gained trade goods, so the player got at least 3 trade goods on his sheet, after resolving that card. And thank you for your kind words :)

    • @Toftolus
      @Toftolus ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes they can pillage when the Trade card is played (if they are neighbours). If the neighbour gains tradegoods (in this case) or resolves a transaction, Mentak can pillage, if there is 3 or more tradegoods on the neighbous sheet
