25:54 - and this is why we rank the Arthurians as 5/5 in terms of complexity 😉, really don't recommend people try the Arthurians as their first civilisation
At set up it looks like you used some value 5 tokens, so Persians are starting with 6 population instead of 2 and Arthur has 7 materials instead of 3. At 47:06 you did the same thing and gave yourself 10 population instead of 2.
@@rahdo It was very interesting digging into the origins of the King Arthur legends, some things definitely altered over time and some got overlooked/forgotten
25:20 when you play Cai you should garrison the card itself rather than a card of your choice: see the BGG blog re Arthur/Knights (I tried posting a link but the comment kept disappearing).
28:52 But also the Persians are probably now starting to question WHY the Arthurians just put the progress token on that one, since it seemed that they (the Arthurians) had no reason to - that is, they would gain no benefit in doing so. Are the Persians starting to re-think it now?
At 16:20, you looked at the cards (naughty) and then shuffled them (to compensate) but you had placed two cards on the top of the deck previously so you shouldn't really have done that!
When you Combine the two Games and put all region unciviliced etc cards together, how many cards of all types are in the decks? Because when you just put the cards together you got a so big pile which will never run out
@@nigelbuckle3759 I mix the common cards from Classics and Legends in one deck. But only the different cards from Legends are put together with the cards from Classics. And for the game I use only so many cards, as the rules pretends. From the blue cards, before the game starts, I remove generally the cards from the participant nations. For example: In a 2 player or solo game, I have now a pool with 27 (18 from Classics and 9 from Legends) green uncivilized cards from both boxes. I draw 18 cards as in a normal game are used. The other 9 cards goes unseen back in the box and are not used in the game. Generate this practice a game balance problem?
plenty if you're plyaing one of the more "in your face" factions, but i wasn't demoing those. if you read the end of the rulebook, there's summaries of what the different nations feel like, so should give you a better idea :) cdn.1j1ju.com/medias/d0/43/15-imperium-classics-rulebook.pdf
Well there goes our evening plans. Grabbing pizza and watching this. Great work Rahdo.

i concur! :)
Every game is super difficult if you don't read the cards.

5:48 Turk True-iff, if you wondered (2 years later XD)
Been waiting for this review. Thanks Rahdo.
23:21 Cafall was King Arthur's hunting dog (used in the hunt for the great boar, Twrch Trwyth), clue is in the card art.
yup, i went and looked it up after filming. why was this not in any of the movies?!??

@@rahdo Mu favourite story of old Wales 🏴 is of Gelert from Beddgelert.

That should be the channel's new name, Rahdo's brain melts down.

46:20 you said 'let's, uh, celebrate our Prosperity' which I guess sounds like 'Alexa, celebrate our Prosperity' 😄
perfect, thanks! "let's uh" :)

38:45 when you acquired Mercenaries it should have gone to your hand (not discard pile).
thanks for the notes nigel, will pass it along to paulo for getting noted up! and congratulations on such an amazing design! :)
@@rahdo Thank you! Though I think you mean to congratulate Nigel Buckle (?).
@@nigelgraves174 LOL, nigel is not that common a name, what are the chances! :)
@@rahdo No worries 🤣 thanks for sharing the videos: I agree that this game is fantastic!

you don't combine the decks from the two separate games. you just take the decks from one box or the other :)
You can mix and match too, say use civilised and fame from one box and the rest of the common cards from the other box.

4:25 you mean developments, not breakthroughs :)
11:11 there is actually one tributary on the offer. your move is still valid, you can go for the deck even if one is available.
u coulda name arthurians britons/welsh/loegrians /wiki/Lloegyr ( youtube com/c/BritainsHiddenHistoryRoss/videos )
You know you can change the wake up word for Alexa.
yup, but i assume echo or computer would get false reads even more...
How much actual interaction is there in this game?
