really good job in explanation, after this video i am ready to go and play the game. There are not many videos for this exact game, but this one is the right one.
Thanks for the tutorial. Cleared up a couple of queries I had after my first play through this evening.
Glad I could help. Thanks for watching and posting;)
Just watched and you teach games SO SOO well! Appreciate it.
Would love a really snappy video
Great video, as always! The game mechanics looks good and I'm definitely going to try it some day.
Thanks, I enjoyed working on this one and love most of the game Eric Lang works on. hoping to make some time to play more of the scenarios;) Let me know what you think when you get a chance to play.
You are very systematic and clear. Excellent tutorial!
Thanks, I it great hearing my videos are helpful;)
Great how to! Love this game even more now! Thank you
You are welcome, thanks for watching and posting.
As always you do a great job of breaking down game play and making it simple for us to understand. Thank you
Thanks, it means so much hearing my videos are helping. Thanks for watching and taking the time to post;)
Well done video. Going to play this tomorrow.
Thanks for watching and good luck with your game;)
Please continue with how to play videos, they are very helpful - good job
Thanks, I will have more coming soon with the next one teaching Shovel Knight Dungeon Duels;)
This video is amazing man, thank you for how clear and concise this is. Just bought the game and this is helping me out a lot!
Thanks so much, hope you have fun with the game;)
Buy the expansions too totally worth it lol I dont work for em or get paid for it sadly but you should still buy it
Great job lance. I decided to bring this one out after a long slumber and had no idea how to play it lol
Thanks so much for watching and posting. Hit me up some time if you want to play a game through video.
Great video!!
I don't know if this game got reprinted with the new Kickstarter going on but it suddenly got really easy to find at retail price or cheaper. Anyway, when I was first learning and playing the game, I was thinking I was missing something so I watched your video and it turns out the game really is that easy to learn! One game that I still have fun with when I am dying a lot!
Thanks for sharing and watching;)
Very helpful, thank you!
You're welcome! Thanks for watching and posting;)
Amazing video, earned a sub
Thanks so much for the sub and for watching and commenting;)
Awesome, thank you very much!
You're welcome!
Great video - subscribed.
Thanks for subbing and watching;)
This is a really good explanation. When we first played we borked the rules regarding the elder one pretty hard.
Thanks so much for posting and watching the video. Hope you have a great time with the game.
I got this today, mainly for the awesome minis to use in my D&D game. But I totally want to play this now!
The minis are great and I really enjoyed this game as well. Let me know what you think of it when you have a chance to play and if you are willing to share I would love to hear about your D&D game you are using these minis in. Thanks for watching and posting.
This made me want to play
Thanks, I had a lot of fun with this game;)
Very nice video!!!
Thank you very much!
Great video thanks
Your welcome thanks for watching;)
Dude thank you so much sir..
Always welcome. Thanks for watching and posting;)
Nice video! :)
Thanks so much for watching;)
great job ! ! ! !
Thanks so much.
Thanks for a great run through of the game. Have now enjoyed 2 play throughs and I’m loving it expect for one little part that I don’t quite understand - if you manage to defeat the star spawn, does it respawn every time stated? I feel like that’s what’s suppose to happen, but god does it make the game extra difficult. Thanks again
Glad you enjoy it! Yes it does continue to spawn. The pain never ends;) Thanks for posting and watching.
@@LearntoPlayGames is this true for all monsters? If I killed 2 fire vampires in episode 1 they continue to spawn with mythos cards?
Yes dying and respawning constantly! They don’t respawn if both are on the board
nice tutorial. in like how it showcases that you can die in turn 2 ^^
Nice video. Where is that character skills compendium link that you mentioned near the 10 minute mark? I didn't see one in the description or anywhere else. Thanks for making these!
Thanks for reminding me, I have added it to the description and it can be found on CMON's page for Death May Die it is in the official FAQ for the game.
@@LearntoPlayGames Thank you!
Nice video. Another good video would be of actual gameplay with 4 other players to see the main mechanics in action.
Sounds good! I might be able to pull off a three player game this weekend we will see;)
Perfect example of how the luck of the 🎲 can completely end the game in one turn
The struggle is real, thanks for watching and posting;)
Hello! May i ask?
The elder one may be summoned between a player actions, rolls etc?
Or at the end of his turn?
And when he is summoned expect when revealed effects we must active and the end of each turn effects? Or they count from the next round?
Thx!! I love ur channel!!
Thanks for watching and for the questions. So first can an Elder One be summoned between a player's actions. No, there are only two ways an Elder One is summoned which are checked during the end of turn (check the Elder One summoning) which are having the Elder One enter the first red space on the track or the ritual is disrupted this turn. Which is also referred to on page 18 stating If the investigators disrupt the ritual, the Elder One is summoned at the end of the turn. Now once an Elder One is summoned you can progress the the next stage as soon as you do enough damage this can happen even between a players actions. I am not sure what you are asking in the second question for sure, but you would resolve the when revealed effect when the Elder one is summoned and each time a new stage card is revealed for the Elder one that lists a when revealed effect. Hope this helps;)
@@LearntoPlayGames my apologies.. English are not my 1st language.. but i like your videos bec i can understand you!!
I mean by the time we summon the old one at this specific turn we have to do the bottom actions of stage 2 card?
So-
My dad works, and lives at, an apartment complex, which I'm visiting rn.
So someone ordered something and then moved out before he received it.
It sit there for a while, until someone came up to my dad and said "hey Josh, I heard that your daughter is a total nerd, you want this?"
Well, turns out, that was A THOUSAND DOLLARS worth of stuff for this game.
Wish me luck as I figure this out!!
If you have a proper nerd license, then you'll figure it out just fine.
It's on the easier side of rules when it comes to big designer board games. No worries.
Nice catch!
@@NefariousKoel hopefully it's easy enough for a just-turned-fourteen year old :p (it's literally my birthday today haha)
@@positivesiennergy - Just follow along with the turn sequence in the rulebook the first time you play. You'll look up a few things and read along as you go, but you'll catch on quickly and know how to do it by the end of your first game. Happy birthday!
Happy late Birthday and please let me know if you have any questions. I agree with NefariousKoel as well following the turn sequence in the rulebook was very helpful when I was learning as well.
Do i need to take discovery card, sometime i value stress or wound more then effect of card
thanks!
Welcome!
Just asking. For Elizabeth, you kept using stress to reroll and her ability/skill allows her to re-roll once for free. so you shouldn't have used that stress for the one re-roll. Right?
Correct, I should of noted it in the video that she had a skill that allowed her to do this, but I was just trying to show the basics of each character and not taking their skills into account during this explanation. I went back and forth on this a couple of times. Thanks for pointing this out and for watching;)
@@LearntoPlayGames I would've preferred having the explanation of the abilities included, since it was quite relevant to what you could've done in the turn. In any case, great and clear review, this helped sell me on the game :)
hi, we just played through our first go of this game.
we found the instructions really ambiguous, this is the most complex game we have tried as are just only getting into board games.
now the game is over I'm watching your clip to try to resolve some questions, disclaimer I'm only at 23 minutes so far, but I have some questions:
1/ should the character have been able to shoot from the room at the start without any line of sight to the occultists? this seemed wrong.
2/ you move the characters 1 room as one move point , it seemed like the tiles were following a grid and I'd have thought it would have taken 2 of the possible 3 move distance to get to the first occultis. one out of the room, one down, what is the reason one room is counted as only one part of the move, is this normal?
3/ you state you can't continue a move after a fight, does it say this?
I was trying to use what I understand of some dungeons and dragons rules as best as I could where you can complete your remaining move distance if you have left over,
We were definitely having to make a call on what we thought the spirit of the rules were, and were not confident on doing things correctly, we lost our episode, but we tried.
I'll have some more questions once I've finished you clip, thank you for your sevice
Thanks for watching and welcome to board games;)
as for your questions I will do my best to answer them.
1. In this game there is no line of sight if you have an ability such as marksmen that allows you to attack an enemy one space away as long as the space is connected by passageways you are good.
2. So with tiles they are detailed on page 9 of the rulebook and a room is only considered multiple spaces if it is divided by walls. Some tiles like the one with the human shadow are considered one space.
3. It is not stated that way in the rules, but on Board Game Geeks forums it is clarified that you can't interrupt an action to start another action. One important thing with board games each one is self contained so try to not pull from other systems as it will confuse you even more.
I hope this helps clear up some of your questions and I will have a play through video coming soon that might help you as well.
my question when it comes to losing sanity. I know it "caps" at each marker, is that for the entire turn? Or just for like, a single action or attack.
Thanks for watching and for the question. The cap is only for a single action or attack. So if you hit a cap on your first attack action and then do another one you will continue to lose sanity if you or the monster roll it.
where can i buy this holder token?
We have the same rolling luck.
wait till you see the play through we just shot for this game Epic Fail, but it was so fun;)
Note that when Cthulu is summoned in an investigator's space, he gets also to ATTACK (next step after mythos card).
Great vid but I’m positive that it isn’t pronounced RAY-HA. Ruh-LAY with strong emphasis on the second syllable.
Sorry for the late reply, I don't always get notified when new posts come up. You are correct I butchered the word;)
Good explanations, but a bit confusing when you omit rules, like her free reroll.
Also not to be mean here, but how do you get "ray-ha" from "R'lyeh"???
I was going back and forth on covering the basics vs including character skills within the rules. As far as the pronunciation I know was was going to get called out on that and so all I can say on that is sorry.
@@LearntoPlayGames granted i didn't have annotations on as it was on my tv so not sure if you had already covered it with that.
Lol don't worry about it, I just thought it was funny :D really helpful vid either way, helps to see it in action instead of just reading the manual.
What is the correct pronounciation? Lovecraft deliberately made the names of his dieties unpronouncable to the human tongue. I guess by that measure, we can pronounce as we ourselves interpret them.
@@roguefish66 Yeah, but still intelligible enough that the cults chanting can summon said ancient ones :D
Its almost like saying "really" but "rea-Lyay".
Is there a game that is similar but cheaper? At this price there are too many choices
Not that I am aware of, but I had a great time with this game and I think there is a ton of replayability with this one as well. Thanks so much for watching and for the question.
A Rayha space?
Ya I butchered that sorry;)
🤗 🔝 😏 🆒 😉
Thanks for watching and posting. Hope you have a great time with the game.
The Game looks great but the Cthulhu miniature is full of holes😥😥
ya I know it has been an issue with some. you are talking about his back right?
Yes
dude... you have the worse luck haha ockman is dying haha
Ya some times those dice just hate me ;)
Confusing. I know the game should be good, but it doesnt look like it is from this video..
I am sorry to hear that. What did you not like about the video. This is a solid game that I would recommend if you like these kind of games.
