I hope that you do a playthrough with this one. It looks like it would be a lot of fun. There really is a lot going on, but it isn't intimidating at all. Thanks for the preview
Thanks! subscribed and liked. You guys are doing a great job. I pledged All-In for Andromeda's Edge, and also picked up and played Gaia Project based on your earlier top 10 games. Thanks for all your hard work!
I can definitely see the dwellings of eldervale influence on this, and that's not a bad thing. I think it'll make this easier to learn and play if you're familiar with dwellings. Thanks for the overview! I'll be checking this out many times before the game releases. Very excited for this one! We thought meeples turning into houses was cute. Now we have ships turning into cities! That's awesome
That's great to hear Cody! We've only played Dwelings once about 2 years ago so couldn't really remember the cross overs. Thanks for checking out the video!
Been going through your videos, and I totally forgot I pledged for this game 😂 glad I got a good preview, hopefully I don’t have a hard time getting it to the table!
My interest is peaked. I have enjoyed Luke Laurie and Tom Jolly's Manhattan Project Energy Empire from 2016. I see some mechanisms from that game in Andromeda's Edge.
Would love to see a playthrough of Radlands! Really fun and snappy two player game and would make a great video. Have you played it? Your videos are one of the main reasons I got into the hobby with my girlfriend (we mostly play at 2 player) and the way you explain the rules of games is much easier to follow than other sources which makes deciding which games to buy very easy. Love your playthroughs!
We've been recommended Radlands by a number of people. It's on our 'want to play list', hopefully we can get to it this year! So glad the videos have been a useful tool for you, we are having a lot of fun with the channel! Thanks for your support :-)
You can play tactics cards during battle that can effect the outcome. (In addition to making sure you have multiple starships in the region, and spending energy for extra dice)
No it’s not, but you can “voyage” to 1 of the 6 nebula spaces to see the top 2 event cards and choose 1 to go under the deck and the other to remain in the top. Hope that helps!
Great video! I really like the play throughs. In this video it's a bit distracting when Naveen with "umhm" or "yeah" during the explanation after basically every point. I'm sure I do that myself sometimes. I'm just not used to it in this sort of video. All the best
Hey guys, love your channel. I was wondering if you have any recommendations for new players wanting to try out board games? Also any recommendations for kids younger than 12 but also engaging for the parents? Thanks!
Purely curious, is there some meaning behind the gladius sword in the background? Alex from BoardGameCo has one in the background of his videos too. Is there a secret board game content creator sword battle club? Ha As always, thanks for the video, really enjoy your playthrough and review videos.

So much of this looks so great, and then you roll dice for combat. Ok there is a bit more to it than just roll some dice, maybe I've just been spoiled by Dead Reckoning in the last year.
Undoubtedly my game of the year last year. The card crafting system fits so well with upgrading your pirate crew and battles are exciting and quick. Just throw some cubes in the battleship and see how they land, then you have a couple abilities that you back and forth to alter the state. It has a little bit in common with Scythe, or maybe more accurately, with what people might assume about Scythe by looking at it - that it is a mech combat game with Euro elements instead of the opposite. Dead Reckoning's combat blows Scythe's deterministic combat out of the water (I still do love Scythe btw). I am usually a medium-heavy Euro player but DR is awesome. If you have time at Airecon I could bring it along and show you, however, including teach, it might be a bit on the longer side.
@@BeforeYouPlay Dead Reckoning is fun. Really feels like a pirate game. The theme is strong with this one. The card crafting and leveling up your crew is a super fun thing you get to do every turn.
I think I may be leaning that way too. It really feels like more of a reskin than a new game. I own Dwellings already so I feel like I would be choosing between these games to play instead them being unique enough to own both. I think maybe owning Dwellings and a game like Eclipse might be better for me.
@@grom44 For me I would keep Dwellings of Eldervale. Mostly because there are a lot of really good empire builder sci-fi themed games out there already and very few fantasy themed ones. I already own several really good sci-fi themed games in this genre. Since Dwellings and Andromeda are so similar mechanically the choice for me comes down to where do these games fit in my collection. Dwellings is a better fit for me.
Check the game out here on Gamefound - tinyurl.com/3vmybec9
The funding campaign is already closed, right? 🥹

Thanks Vance, glad it all made sense. Maybe when the copies get sent to backers we can make a Playthrough in the future.
Excited for a full teach and playthrough of this down the line hoepfully.
Hopefully when the game comes out!
Thank you for your excellent preview!
Thanks Luke! You're the best!!
Thanks for the preview!
You’re welcome!
Thanks for the great preview. Looking forward to seeing a playthrough video - maybe? Keep up the great work.
Great walkthrough! I already backed the game but now have a really clear understanding on exactly how it plays. Thanks!!
You did a great job of making this game seem very digestible. Thanks!
Thanks for checking out our video!
Lets gooo! My favourite reviewers!
Thank you!!

Would love to actually watch you two do a gameplay of dwellings of Eldervale.
I'd like to see a full playthrough. I keep getting ads for this on Instagram and it looked interesting.
First video that I watched where everything clicked right away! I will probably back this one, it looks like something my group would enjoy.

@@BeforeYouPlay *gasp* You should own a copy!
Wish it was already coming out

Hope you enjoy it!
I'm here from Gamefound/Andromeda's Edge. I already watched it, but I did not click the like. : 0 How did I forget that!?
I hope you choose to make a full playthrough when you have a chance or the campaign delivers
Possibly with the final production copy!!
Thank you so very much! I will see you at the Edge of Adromeda!🚀🚀🚀
Looks amazing
Thanks for watching Tiago!!
Let's goo

What you guys got it!!! lucky… and good for you… I am watching… always watching…………….

Might have missed it but is there any dice mitigation abilities? How does strategy come into winning a battle?
You can play tactics cards during battle that can effect the outcome. (In addition to making sure you have multiple starships in the region, and spending energy for extra dice)
Quick question: is the event card showing at all before it's triggered? In other words, is there any way to plan for an upcoming event?
No it’s not, but you can “voyage” to 1 of the 6 nebula spaces to see the top 2 event cards and choose 1 to go under the deck and the other to remain in the top. Hope that helps!
It does, thanks!
Thanks for the great preview! You also did a preview for Voidfall about a year ago. Do you think there is room for both in a collection?
I wish you both could teach every game to me 😭 this would be so fun to play with you friends! 🚀
LOL! Let's get some games in soon!
Great video! I really like the play throughs. In this video it's a bit distracting when Naveen with "umhm" or "yeah" during the explanation after basically every point. I'm sure I do that myself sometimes. I'm just not used to it in this sort of video.
All the best
Was distracting for me as well
This looks great. :)
Hi! Do you have a sense on how heavy this game is on a BGG scale? (1-5). Heavier than Gaia Project? More than Paladins WK?
I'd say less than Gaia project for sure. Maybe a 3.5 on the BGG heavy scale.
3.5 out of 3 heavy

Haven't tried Dead Reckoning, how is it?

Is that shirt the shirt of a Muse fan?
Good eye, yes it is!
Ever gonna play Clank Catacombs?
A bit disappointed that there is no interaction with structures on planets :(
That's fair.
This looks so similar to Dwellings that I'm not sure it's even worth it, and nothing in it really looks better.

I own Dwellings already so I feel like I would be choosing between these games to play instead them being unique enough to own both. I think maybe owning Dwellings and a game like Eclipse might be better for me.
If you would have chance to exhange your copy of Dwellings for Andromeda what would you do?
And how is the battle like..? It looks like to random for me... One ship is able destroy whole army... Is it similar in Dwellings?

@@inttruders I am looking for exact that kind of game with a sci fi theme, which would you recommend for solo and a playtime of around 1-2 hours?
This game's actually already available. Oh wait ... that's only in the Andromeda galaxy, my bad.🌌
Lol 😂
I just backed this today. It will be my first crowdfunded game! Can't wait.
Should ship any day now, right? .......right?

Thank you for the preview!
Absolutely, hope the video was helpful!!
