    These players are absolutely amazing at making the game easy to understand. I haven't played any wargame at all but I've been an avid fan of your Battle Reports. But this game had me completely understanding every aspect of it very easily with zero familiarity of how it plays. Props to the team, the players, and the people at Mantic Games!

    • @VictoriaWargaming
      @VictoriaWargaming ปีที่แล้ว

      Kings of War is very clearly written ruleset, and it usually takes only a couple of turns before you know enough to play.
      complexity comes from what you DO, not the rules.

    Simply Awesome ! Fantastic production quality as always from POT, always loved your battle reports from the beginning and only stopped watching as often because I've lost interest in 40k, moving towards the Mantic games - so seeing you cover KOW got me super excited and you didn't disappoint. I suppose that leads me to to put a POT battle report for Firefight/Deadzone/Armada/Vanguard on the wishlist ! Thanks and well done

    Wonderfully helpful camera angles, I love the overhead cam showing the state of the battlefield, broken up by dynamic camera zooms and dice cams. Some of the sound effects were a bit loud, but I enjoyed their inclusion nonetheless.
    The quick highlights by Tycho did a good job of pulling me back into the action whenever I started to get lost keeping track of too many things.
