I've pledged for the Iron & Blood version. I'm so happy I did. Through KS a lot of stretch goals have been unlocked adding so many new options and game modes to this game. Like the Beast Hunt expansion! Really looking forward to that one! I'm so happy I stumbled on this play through when I did!
I can't wait. I like worker placement and this volcano is an amazing tool to make this a great new experience. I need to watch fewer videos. I have starting to kick start many of the great games you review. Great work and thanks for the review.
Paulo actually made a goof, at 37.38 he mentions Richard should have received 2 gold. Richard actually took those 2 gold and said he took em just before that.
Today I run through 'Paulo's Goof' ;) at 37:38 Paulo says Richard should get 2 gold for his building, I'm pretty sure he took that gold at 37:08 :) (Damn I hope I am right now or I will look a total fool lol)
This looks a fun game, but is the 3D implementation of the volcano really a good idea? I notice Richard that you have to keep standing up to see the worker placement spaces the other side of the volcano. I can imagine four players around the table all bobbing up and down throughout the game because they can't see the obscured spaces. I guess you could assemble it flat?
i talked about this in the final thoughts, and if you check the KS page you'll see it's not really an issue as they've flattened it out. but even still, if you don't care for it, you can jettison the plastic volcano structure and just place the cardboard discs 100% flat on the table, but that's not quite as much fun :)
HaHa, the one time I didn't get round to watching your final thoughts (which I usually watch before the runthrough)! Thanks for the info, I'm glad this has been sorted already : )
29:03... Forgot to pay for the God for Jane. Its kinda hard to get the feel of the game because of so many mistakes and mismatches on resources and stuff. Still good video, thanks!
I get such an odd feeling seeing this theme attached to these mechanisms, but it seems to work. I just hope the final product is much more polished than this.
Sorry if I'm one of the few... I absolutely hate the Klingon subtitles... it won't let me watch with Subtitles or even Auto-Generated because of it. I'm hearing impaired and Rahdo has been one of my long time subs because I love his passion for board games, especially in two players, since that's my life as well. Sad to see that I can't understand his videos any more because of this. :(
mike, i'm really sorry to hear about the trouble. are you sure it's to do with the klingon(goof) additions? i've looked over some random videos, and tbh i can't see any sort of consistency about whether the auto-generated subtitles appear or not. like, check this one out: th-cam.com/video/VBJzDa2AkDk/w-d-xo.html as you can see, on that video, you have the choice of klingon or english auto-generated. but on this video, for whatever reason, the auto-generated option isn't there. i've just combed over every setting i can to find out why it's appearing in some and not others and i got nothin'. youtube help isn't much use either: support.google.com/youtube/answer/6373554?hl=en "If your video doesn't generate automatic captions, it could be due to one or more of the following reasons: The captions aren't available yet due to processing complex audio in the video. The language in the video is not yet supported by automatic captions. The video is too long. The video has poor sound quality or contains speech that TH-cam doesn't recognize. There is a long period of silence at the beginning of the video. There are multiple speakers whose speech overlaps." none of that is consistent with the patterns i'm seeing. every video is officially in english, my video lengths are all over the place, my audio quality is pretty consistent... i have no idea what's going on. i'll put in a support request with youtube and fingers crossed they can help me get to the bottom of it...
i'm suspecting it might come down to video length... over 25 minutes long, and youtube maybe will, maybe won't auto-generate. if it's that simple, i'll endeavor in the future to always stay below the line (whatever it is). i just uploaded a video today, and the first part is 20-ish minutes and has auto generated subtitles, and the 2nd part is like 38 minutes, and it doesn't. so that's pretty telling. more as i discover it!
yup, i just checked wrathborne champions runthrough. intro is under 21 and has auto-english. extended is 28 and doesn't. both have klingon, so it's looking like it's a length thing (and barbarians vid is too long it seems). could you do me a favor... if you spot any vids that are under 25 minutes and the auto-generated aren't there, let me know?
And this is why I love you. You engage with your audience. Cheers for the research, and keep them coming. And I'll do my duty as long as you do yours! Make great reviews!

Rahdo is famous for his fans empty wallets. ;)
Loose sleeves are a bad idea when playing with tokens on tracks!
truer words never spoken
He's a magician!

at 37.08 Richard takes the gold.
Richard you poor soul having to play two plates at the same time. Keep up the good work sir. I think I am almost caught up on all your reviews.
it seems to me most everything could be about 25% smaller.

You are correct. ^^
you are not a fool!! :p
33:41 for anyone who comes to see the volcano moving mechanic

Did Jen actually pay the demon the resources for the 2 tech points at the end of the first round?
no she didn't she ran out of gold to appease him instead of losing 5 points so she couldn't pay for his benefit
timestamp please
18:26.. He revised her turn and runs out of gold. She cannot pay the 1 of every material cost for the boon.
No gold.
seems like jen is confused about what she wants to do :)
