I don't think you can toss that grenade to the shadows. The advanced rules state there are two types of zones, engagement zones and shadow zone. The barrel card states specifically engagement zones I think?
+Michael Ng yup, i was a dummy.... even though i checked the rules during play, i misread them! paulo has already added a note to the video and in the show notes about this :)
20:40 the skeletal is chosen for the claw, not because the printed value (4) is the highest but because their effective attack value (4-2 = 2 > 1) is highest. They only attack in the enemy phase, not the hero phase. In hero phase they counter because you rolled claw, dealing stated effective attack value. Adding more wounds to the skeletons is resolving your white dice. Adding wounds to hero is resolving the black claws. Similarly there is resolving the nemesis if at least one nemesis was rolled. Checking for Is it dead yet? is resolving your hero turn. Resolving dice vs hero turn is different!
Yes ! Warhammer! Rahdo, i love all of the runthroughs keep up the amazing work! You and your runthroughs make my day! Where can i get a Rahdo T shirt?!?!
@18:17 It doesn't have to be the toughest. Party leader must activate with a ready enemy that is engaged with them if possible. If there are none then they get to select any one in the shadows. You can't engage with a monster that is engaged with another hero.
+Benjamin Hernandez (TIGBUN) I don't think that's what Richard is talking there... He's saying what will happen in the Enemies Phase and in that step because the 3 enemies in the Shadows have "Advance" they will engage with one of the Heroes
Yes they will engage a hero, because of advance. But Richard says that they do so in order of their attack value. That's not true, the players and choose which one engages them.
@20:40: Damage is simultaneous, so skeletal horde deals you 2 damage (=4-2), because it only had 2 damage before you applied your damage to them in this attack.
Hi! We can't find where does the rulebook say that. It only says that the enemies deal their full damage (4 in the skeletal horde case) minus the shields in the rolled dice. But we think the wound tokens in the enemy card doesn't reduce the attack of the enemy. We also can't find it in the official FAQ. Thanks!
The unofficial FAQ says that skeletal horde in this particular case deals 0 damage (see under ATTACK ACTION), not 2 (like I say) or 4 (like you say). boardgamegeek.com/thread/1482162/unofficial-faq This thread, however, shows that people can't agree: boardgamegeek.com/thread/1506613/skeletal-horde-did-i-play-right In any case, I haven't seen anyone else but you wanting to have it deal 4 damage. "Attack" on the card is interpreted as "attack value" which has been decreased due to the damage tokens on the card.
People on bgg never agree on anything. It is very simple. Just remember that resolving dice != resolving hero turn. hero phase: look at effective attack value, as they were at the start of the hero turn; not just the printed value in blue diamond. FFG is terribly incompetent at writing any rulebook. Their errata and FAQ are equally bad. They also introduce these weird chance elements, see AHLCG. And they get worse over time. I don't think the game system itself is invented by FFG not attibutable to them.
hey from the uk! great vifeo (just bought thr game so have been fishing for tips. What table are you playing on? I'm looking to invest in a proper gaming table soon. Thanks in advance.
just learning the game at the moment. when you exhaust your character cards are they permanently like that till you use the "reset action card" or do they all reset after a turn?
+Fractal_Mind it is correct for the delve setup i believe: "Shuffle 15 open Tier I enemies and 9 open Tier II enemies". nothing about standard or elite, so everything's fair game :)
+rahdo, check page 12 of the rules reference guide. Under quest setup it reads" • If a quest sheet instructs players to include an “open standard enemy,” add one random standard enemy of the same tier as the current quest. These enemies are not grouped into sets. • If a quest sheet instructs players to include an “open elite enemy,” add one random elite enemy of the same tier as the current quest. These enemies are not grouped into sets." I hope that helps! Thanks for the video!
I have both. To me this is Lotr LCG streamlined. I regret it has no expansions. I find it better than Lotr LCG despite collecting it still but it needed a bit more scenario's to truly 'flourish'.
Yeah I hate the lost the rights to this. I'm SO glad it has 6 scenarios in the box. Otherwise this would be a HUGE failure. But I grabbed it for $25 and no regrets at all! :)
+Seasons (TL;DR at the bottom) In My opinion I prefer Warhammer ACG because cooperation and strategy is alot more prominent. the way the actions on the heroes are set up to benefit yourself and your buddies. By helping them refresh and exhausted card, helping them engage an enemy, giving them success tokens to use for a later action or curing them of some ill effect. So you get some good synergy going. so everyone is pretty involved. As for Pathfinder (I have and only played Rise of the Rune Lords version) ACG, I really wanted to love this game but to me personally it got stale fast because it is more so a solo group game. In a nut shell, Everyone will split up and choose 1 location deck out of the various that there are and explore the area deck ( which is a luck of the draw kind of thing) to find the main villain and if hes not in said location you "close it off". The reason why everyone should split up and explore each location solo is because the game has a timer and if the main villain is not found before the timer ends. The heroes lose. So its more time efficient to spread out and explore each location on your own. And you can aid friends most of the time by using blessings which generally happens. which gives them a re-roll on different kinds of skill checks. Or maybe a skill of yours helps attack creature at their location. i feel this just does not keep people engaged. And from what I noticed in my sessions when its players turn everyone else just kind of sits their day dreaming or on their phone until the person at the location needs a blessing. and once they do or do not receive one everyone else just kinda does their own thing again until its their turn to explore their location. whether or not they fixed this in the newest sets of the Pathfinder I do not know since i have not bought another set since the First set Rise of the Rune Lords was released. TL;DR In short Warhammer ACG (IMO) has better cooperation and overall group involvement because of they way the actions for each hero are set up to aid each other and progress through each location as a GROUP as compared to Pathfinder ACG which everyone usually just solos different locations requesting help if they need it while trying to find the main villain. and ultimately meeting up at the end.
+Carlos Castrejon yeah, you pretty much got it. unless your frienss really like the PACG it can fet pretty mundane. i personally love playing that game solo co trolling 3characters. WQ is way more active and cooperitve also its more of a dungeon crawl and uses dice in a fin way not just a stat check.
Ah, thanks for the link. Also great video, i bought the game a few weeks ago as an shorter alternative to the original Warhammer Quest and your videos have played a substantial role in teaching me the rules and game-play mechanics. Also now whenever i play as the bright wizard i refer to her as Jen to throw people off. Once again thanks for the videos and keep it up.
HA! I was looking at this just now and wondering if you've done a video on it! hopefully they handle the expansions better than the Pathfinder ACG, I want my characters to carry over.
the field of view is nauseatingly narrow; the shakiness and constant motion of the camera and the too-quick focus shifting as a result of constantly whizzing cards too closely/too quickly past the lens is making me wanna hurl. i'm sure it's a great video, just couldn't make it all the way thru :S
I'm honestly really sad that Fantasy Flight Games didn't have the time to release more story quests and such before the license with GW ended.

No more story quests or expansions were created for the Warhammer Quest Adventure Card Game...

+Roskoe Gordineer check out merch.rahdo.com whcih is a site i don't tell people about, but if anyone asks, it's there :)
+rahdo thank you so much !!! i am stocking up on merch!! keep up the amazing work!
I allways "love" it when the game tells you its an "epic adventure". I would really like to decide that for myself :P
@18:17
It doesn't have to be the toughest.
Party leader must activate with a ready enemy that is engaged with them if possible. If there are none then they get to select any one in the shadows. You can't engage with a monster that is engaged with another hero.

@@normann1974 not really. If you follow that thread it ends with a reference to the official ruling, that says full damage. 4.

+David Power don't untap until you take the time to reset them :)
+rahdo so they stay exhausted till you use the "prepare icon" card where as enemies reset after the peril phase ? is that right? lol
+David Power sounds bout right! :)
cheers. i dont actually own the game physically but been playing through tabletop simulator on pc haha. buying the real game next pay day :)
"fast damage and even faster damage" :-)
I'm excited for Hot, so I came to watch this to see what it is all about. Seems close enough to AH:LCG that I know what I'll be expecting. Pumped.
which game is longer to play throughout all scenarios Warhammer quest or Heroes of Terrinoth?
no idea, but if you ask here: boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/254591/heroes-terrinoth/forums/0 you'll probably get a good answer :)
Thank you for this rahdo! ;) I'd like to know how this stack up for you against shadowrun crossfire? Has the same puzzly feel and character growth
+Mark Raymund Anorico Araya i actually drew comparison to it in the final thoughts iirc :)
I believe you set up your enemy deck incorrectly. Skeletal Horde is an ineligible open elite since it is a tier 2 enemy.
+Fractal_Mind it is correct for the delve setup i believe: "Shuffle 15 open Tier I enemies and 9 open Tier II enemies". nothing about standard or elite, so everything's fair game :)
+rahdo, check page 12 of the rules reference guide. Under quest setup it reads"
• If a quest sheet instructs players to include an “open standard
enemy,” add one random standard enemy of the same tier as the
current quest. These enemies are not grouped into sets.
• If a quest sheet instructs players to include an “open elite
enemy,” add one random elite enemy of the same tier as the current quest. These enemies are not grouped into sets."
I hope that helps! Thanks for the video!
@@fractal_mind8191 Cards override rules. You forgot that.
Rahdo is correct.
It has a LotR LCG vibe to it.
+Alithia451 Not nearly as similar as people make it out to be.
+Alithia451 jeah the game mechanic looks really close to LotR (no wonder its from fantasy flight as well ;D)
+Alithia451 Somewhat. It has elements similar to it but also similar to say Pathfinder Adventure Game.

that'll teach me to comment before i watch the video haha. still this game sounds right up my alley, thanks for the run through.

i wonder if HoT will be compatible with WQ....
