    Thanks for you great video. I‘m happy you love it. It’s good when people see what they will get so that they can judge if it fits into their collection. Playthroughs get more and more popular and that‘s for a good reason. Well done 👍.

    Guys, this will blow your minds, but the Victory Point track is notched for a reason. The VP markers fit rather satisfyingly in those notches. I know, comment of the month, you are welcome |:)

    I'm a big fan of Pfister's games and a playthrough is just what I've been looking for. I still haven't pulled the trigger to buy, but I have a number of recently purchased games that I have to delve into before this one.

  • @stevegeorge7773

    I thought your minimal rules explanation and actually play the full all expansions game plays was what was great. 9 out of 10 times the rules unfold perfectly during the game well and one gets it.

  • @chadswee5760

    Small suggestion- set your f-stop/depth of field to manual instead of auto focus in advance because with your current setup, the camera was fluctuating between focusing on the background and your faces. It should be fairly easy to manually focus since there’s two of you.

    It looked like you guys counted the victory points for all of your ship upgrades, but I believe only the highest of each type count.

    Thx for the review. During the final thoughts, the focus of the camera keeps switching between you and the background.

    • @AntLabGames
      @AntLabGames  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks! That focus switching is new. Will need to lock that down going forward.

    You turned comments off on your last video.
    I would like to say a couple things.
    First: Thanks for the videos, you have some of what I consider to be the best videos when you guys are on your game.
    Second: Do whatever you want, its your life. 🖖
    Third: Don't let the opinions of the perpetually offended get to you, they are meaningless.
    I will definitely be looking for your new endeavor if you do choose to follow that route.
    Again, thanks
    Signed, long time watcher.

    Hi Anthony and Frances, thank you for another great playthrough. I would like to ask where can I buy those wooden token holders you are using?

    • @AntLabGames
      @AntLabGames  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      They are “Component Collectors” from a company called Dog Might games. These were a gift that started on Kickstarter years ago. I’m not sure if they are still making them, or if they are still working on backer orders (they were reeeaaallly backed up - it took over 2 years to fulfill mine) Nonetheless, they are awesome and if you can get your hands on them I would!

    If you play the third scenario does it increase the weight / crunchiness / add more interesting decisions? Do you expect playing through the campaign would have a similar effect? Thanks!

    • @AntLabGames
      @AntLabGames  3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      The third scenario adds even more decisions and tiles, and builds on the story. The campaign portion does add a ton of thematic flavor and guides your decisions in the game.

    Is it just me or does the review sounds a bit like you need to apologize for liking this game? Maybe due to the game being inevitably compared to Maracaibo and not having the same level of complexity/grandeur? Not sure, but the buildup for why you think Cloudage is really good made me think that it gets praised the way you would praise a child's picture "right, this is not Michaelangelo, but it's decent enough". Still, great playthrough, worth waiting a couple days for you to get comfortable with the game.

    • @AntLabGames
      @AntLabGames  3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      We are just trying to be more transparent with our reviews. We have no shame in liking this game. It’s not as heavy as expected, but fun for us nonetheless. Not an apology in any way.
