Cool run so far - I need that special encyclopedia when I play though! The double auto-fail then elder sign is part of this crazy game - never assume any pull!
The auto fail token, and it's relative scarcity, really makes the game. No matter how much you boost your stats, the draw is always suspenseful. And if you have a bunch of skill cards and bonus damage committed like Glai did... it can be devastating! Love this game so much.
The auto-fail is a killer! It can be really heartbreaking when you have committed all of your best cards to the test to "guarantee" success and then it comes out. But as you guys say, it's all part of this game and it is what makes it so fun to play. Thanks for the comment!
Great scenario! Finding Jazz so quickly really was the "key" to success! 😂 I know that life will get a lot more difficult for you starting in Scenario 5 when the Encyclopedia is properly nerfed, so enjoy the success you had when your ignorance was bliss! 😊 As always, a wonderful production and you two are a delight to watch play this game!
Haha - Nice! Yeah, finding Jazz so quickly was really huge. I was really surprised when he came out straight away but it definitely made things much easier on us. Things will certainly change when we start using the Encyclopedia properly. Really sorry about that - it was a bad one to overlook because it does give Rex a huge advantage because of the free actions. Really glad that you are enjoying the videos though. We have having a great time playing!
No need to apologize, Pat... it happens, particularly with a game this complex, and since you record multiple sessions at once, one mistake can snowball a bit. I will also note that you and Glai get a number of things correct that many AH players miss, so it all evens out. There are so many interactions among cards and so many nuances there are bound to be misses. It does not affect my enjoyment in the slightest.
@@craigcodlin5249 Thanks for that Craig. It is great to hear that it doesn't affect your enjoyment of the videos. There certainly is a lot going on in Arkham Horror and it is difficult to beat the scenario so sometimes we get caught up in our plans and miss something here or there. Cheers!
One point I am not certain, based on the videos, whether you understand: the lightning ability on Beat Cop can be triggered any time during a lightning window, not just when Glai does an attack. Conversely, it isn't mandatory to activate it when she attacks--only if she wants to do so.
Hi Craig! Yes, we are good with the Beat Cop's ability. Actually, it is really great because it doesn't take an action and he even works on aloof enemies which can save you two actions since you don't have to engage or fight them (if their strength is 1 like the Whipporwills).
I was wondering, what camera are you using ? Im doing Arkham Video as well with the same point of view but my video quality is far from yours. I find it incredible how every card is in focus, even those on completely different edge. Thanks for the hindsight :)
Hello there. We use a Sony Alpha Mirrorless camera, and the lens is also important. I have put our affiliate link with Amazon in the description. Good luck with your videos!
Hi Stef. Sorry we missed that. You are correct - it should have cost 1 resource. I have made a note in the Klingon subtitles. Thank you for letting us know.

27:27 The joy is visceral and palpable!!!!!
Haha - yeah, Rex's Curse is so nasty that it was great to get it out of my hand! :-)

Exactly!
1:01:03 Gali missed a resource for the massive engagement.
@sharxboy Massive enemies don't trigger Zoey's ability, if that'swhat you are referencing. It's in FFG's official FAQ.

45:07 you don’t have to pay for the card when you played strange solution ?
