The hex tiles each having special abilities but aren’t shown on the tiles is a huge frustration. We all end up passing around the reference book constantly. They even include a different reference card but it only shows turn phase order..on both sides..

Some rule questions Cast says to spend resources to cast the spell, do I have to repay the cost of the spell card to cast it? Can I reroll after I have spent resources? Why are there so many resource tokens if you never really use more than one or two outside of your dice Can I trade in a spell to buy a spell that is higher than 1 spell Lvl
If you choose to re-roll.. do you get to keep the resources from those initial rolls? The rules don't say anything on that. I imagine you wouldn't get to keep those resources, but i wasn't sure.... Lets say you make your 1st roll.. use some of those resources - can you use an AP to re-roll with those dice you already claimed resources with?
Hey guys, I have a question: if I use a counterspell that allows me to move when I take damage by an attack, if I move beyond the attack range do I dodge the attack?
@Jarb2104 the counters in the rulebook says to be discarded but the actual spells gathered dont specify. At first i discarded all cards used bc thats what my mental rule is too but one day, we had a friend over and they were reading the rulebook and usually the rule of thumb is to take the rulebook literally. Like in card games, if it says to you do, if it says you may you can choose to but it doesnt specify for those cards. Its worded in a way that sounds like you keep the cards and trade them out as your book fills if that makes sense. (Edit) Ex: in the rulebook it says: "each spell can only be used once per turn." But never says to discard once used
@@birdajet Yup, that's my understanding too, but it feels a bit punishing for anyone that is having a hard time getting good spells, hence why I house ruled to discard them. Plus like I mentioned previously, counters feel more meaningful this way, since you'll completely shut down a spell from an opponent, rather than just giving you one more turn.
I wonder if your meant to pay the cost of the card again to cast it. The cast action says to spend resources to cast. This would allow spells to stay in your spell book but be a big ouch if someone counter spelled you seeing as you might have just discarded another spell or shadow energy to cast it.
some shadow forms feel weak compared to others. dealing a stun to just your tile compared to dealing 5 dmg to any +2 tile by choice. stun itself is such a weak spell and you even need to use action points to get to a sertain player. freeze is more annoying and you can even use it on adjacent tiles.
So excited I just got my Kickstarter today!!! Love that there is already a video out it helps a ton
I just got my kickstarter in the mail today. This video really helped me learn how to play, so thank you!
thanks for the instructional video! Just picked up the game yesterday and about to play with the little (big) dude! :D
Thanks for this! I just got my KS box and can't wait to get this on the table!

It's not even a book, just a single page, and I think it's easy enough to have the 7-10 tiles on the board memorized by the end of the game
We wrote it on the hex with sharpie, well my wife does bc her handwriting is better than mine
Just place one of the cardboard tile on the corresponding tiles
You make it seem like you have to read a novel. You don't. Geez. Kids these days can't read 😂

Thank you for the explanation! I can't wait for the game to release 😄
You can’t wait? Well, don’t. You are welcome.
SO HELPFUL!!! just sleeved all my cards :) !!!
Just got ours and we’ve played a round and it’s so fun!
I would like to see you and your team on lay an actual game. It would be easier to understand the rules and see them in action
Cant wait for this, I love Armello and ive been wanting them to make a physical version but this is just as good.
Really Appreciate your explanation!! 😊👍🏽
You explained so well!! ❤
Hey team, I know times are tough but, I woukf really lkke if 6ou had a better quality video noy 360p what year you rom????
Much better than that other video.
I have a question. If you use “run away” do you have to move out of the range of the attack? Or does it just let them dodge the move?
THIS! I NEED THIS ANSWERED TOO!
I just house rule it, if it's a "target player" then it's a dodge, if it's a "target hex" then the meeple moves outside range.
Awesome review very helpful, thank you!
So is the resource cost to add a spell to the spell book the same as it is to cast it? And then is it discarded from your spell book after it is used?
Can the shadow energy we collect on our character card, at the end of the turn, be used to collect spell card ? Or is just for character's power ?
Some rule questions
Cast says to spend resources to cast the spell, do I have to repay the cost of the spell card to cast it?
Can I reroll after I have spent resources?
Why are there so many resource tokens if you never really use more than one or two outside of your dice
Can I trade in a spell to buy a spell that is higher than 1 spell Lvl
When you do reroll for 3 dice, those resources I first go change according to the new rolling or they accumulate?
If you choose to re-roll.. do you get to keep the resources from those initial rolls? The rules don't say anything on that. I imagine you wouldn't get to keep those resources, but i wasn't sure.... Lets say you make your 1st roll.. use some of those resources - can you use an AP to re-roll with those dice you already claimed resources with?
No. The original rolls do not count, and only the rerolled resources can be used.
Does the shadow form ability trigger counter spells?
The one problem with the game is that I'm so hyped to play it now but it still isn't out yet
oh SHIT its out
Hey guys, I have a question:
if I use a counterspell that allows me to move when I take damage by an attack, if I move beyond the attack range do I dodge the attack?
I don't know but i would say no, because it says "when you take dmg" so it already happened and then you move
@@davidflicker249 Clear, I got your point. So I would say that the utility of that spell is quite small.
We need an updated version of this video, because protect cost 1 shadow
This game seems similar to king of New York/king of Tokyo, tho with more emphasis on fighting which I’m all in for
if my meeples live in ancient rune hex tile, i can play attach spell to enemy or not. i don't sure. when i see pictures
Do spells get discarded once used or do they stay in your spellbook until you swap it out? 🤔
As a personal house rule, and to have counters be more meaning full, once a spells is used it's discarded.
@Jarb2104 the counters in the rulebook says to be discarded but the actual spells gathered dont specify. At first i discarded all cards used bc thats what my mental rule is too but one day, we had a friend over and they were reading the rulebook and usually the rule of thumb is to take the rulebook literally.

But also counter spells aren’t too hard to get so I’m not sure they need to be to OP
Awesome game I love it🎉❤❤❤
Looks like such a fun game omg
Good God! Why does this video only go up to 360p?!
🤫
Thanks you! Very helpful.
