Aeon’s End is my favorite co-op game and I love watching people play it. I noticed one little rules mistake. If you focus an ally’s breach they don’t get to immediately prep a spell. You can prep to a closed breach when you focus it on YOUR turn. It’s also not an instant action. You can’t use Amplify Vision to focus, prep a spell during the cast phase, then immediately cast it. Thanks for the vid!

Very nice editing and commentary. Was a blast to watch you play :)
Two errors I noticed:
For example at 26:12 when Brandon plays the card "Focusing Orb" and targets one of Kyle's breaches I think he is not allowed to prep a spell cause it's not his turn. Also once it it his turn he would have to focus it again in order to prep a spell in it.
45:10 Kyle can only cast the "Spark" at the beginning of his next turn, not immediately after he prepped it.
Maybe you misunderstood the focus mechanic.

Doesn't the Broodwomb prevent removal of husks while it's in play? Need to remove it first?

[@Thorg42]

Read it wrong. I'm a goof. 😁

[@OptimalPlay]

Nope it's the opposite! You cannot damage the broodwomb while there are husks in play.

Where did y'all get the charge tokens from?

Those teardrop shaped colored tokens? They're from GolonkoCrafts on etsy!
