    A few comments:
    I loved the water bottle comment haha
    The amount of times Saar (black) put his hands in his mouth would really make me not wanna touch any pieces of the game he touched.
    For next year, would it be possible to record table audio and commentator audio separate, and split each into either left or right? There were a few different times I wanted to hear what they players were saying but I couldn't.

      While I understand where you come from regarding Saar's player, working in forensinc has made me see so many time how much bodily fluid we spread around, wether we are careful or not, that I learned to stop minding such things. I wouldn't call out anyone for asking him to stop though.

    A different question than the one already asked about 33:40 but still pertaining to the transaction - how was this transaction allowed? I thought a transaction could only occur between neighbors, and at this point in the game Sol and Jol Nar are not neighbors. Am I wrong?
    I've played the game ONCE, 7 months ago, and I'm about to play for the second time very soon, so I'm trying to relearn everything. Would really like to understand the rules better, and I just don't understand why this was allowed. I must be missing something obvious.

    Can someone clarify to me what happens at 33:40? Why Sol looks so confused and Saar and Naalu are so impressed?

    • @caoilteoconnor8184
      @caoilteoconnor8184 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      He bought Jol Nars research agreement for trade goods (three I think). Naalu and Saar were upset because this gave Jol naar enough money to get the plastic to take a further system in the first turn (ie a carrier and infantry). It sounds like this is something Jol naar normally struggles to do and is one of the few disadvantages they suffer early on when fast expansion is key. Of course Saar would be upset that it means Jol naar can expand towards him...

  • @jonathanko5471

    was the map built in violation of the rules? the green alpha wormhole is a red hex and the players put red hexes next to the red alpha worm hole. Does the no adjacent red rule only apply within a ring?

    • @SpaceCatsPeaceTurtlesPodcast
      @SpaceCatsPeaceTurtlesPodcast  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      The non-adjacent tile rule is for anomaly systems with red borders, not the red backed system tiles. Additionally, wormholes of the same type cannot be placed adject. In either of these cases, if it is the ONLY place a player can play the tile, they can break that rule

      Hey @JemmeyGaminG I moved from the other vid to answer your question here. Sol starts with 2 carriers and 5 infantry. Sol first action moved out to the planets directly in front of his home, leaving 1 carrier available to be moved from the home. Saar then popped Warfare turn 2, allowing Sol to build using the secondary to build another carrier, meaning he had 3 total to move in R1
