For anyone buying the last edition from DLP games, which supports 5 players already - they changed the setup a little from this video's version, but failed to update the text of the instructions in the rulebook. That 14th citizen tile no longer just gets left on the table - there's a spot for it printed on the map side of the board. It's the one you get for building the most trading houses.
This is the best explanation of the game I’ve watched. The flow of the video and the and the content made me understand how the game works. Thanks so much.
Fantastic video!! The game's ruley are not easy to explain, but you managed to do it so logicaly it seemed effortless! With all the animation, examples.. hats off! Must have taken you quite some time to make it. Thanks again, and stay safe!
I really appreciate this video. It shows of Orleans quite well. I had already described it to friends as "Quacks of Quedlinburg meets Village" but it looks even more apt than I realized. With the new print coming out from Capstone games, I will be sure to pick it up!
Top tier video. Love the dedication that goes in to making something as clear and crisp as this. And Orleans is really great. The "handel" expansion is a must buy tho.
Yet another wonderfully done teach Ryan. I dare say it is even better than the master Rodney's video. I always appreciate both of your channels so much. So many hours of reading and rereading disorganized manuals saved. But I think you're a little more succinct and there's a little more humor, creativity, and thought put into your videos. Thanks again. Hope you keep doing more. Because I have too many games I have still yet to play!
Brilliantly described Ryan. Love your channel for clear and concise rules explanations and round anatomy. Purchased this as a result of watching this and can't wait to play. Keep up the great work.
Can't believe I wasn't already subscribed because his is a really good "How to Play" video. I just got his game and have watched several long videos that taught me a fraction of what I've gleaned here. Now subbed and Liked. Thank you!
@@NightsAroundaTable we really liked it! We've have Paladins too which is very similar, but Orleans is much a lighter, quicker game but with still plenty to do.
Love your videos! Love your humor! When I buy a new board game I first look at your channel to see if you have a how to play as you explain everything clear and in detail
Thanks so much, George! i'm still trying to pump up that video library to be useful to as many people as i can. Here's the complete list so far: nightsaroundatable.com/games-a-z/
Awesome video! Thanks for putting these types of videos together, I know the amount of work that goes into something like this. Love your rules videos and your other channel content. Thanks for all you do. Oh and hello, from up the 115 in Peterborough! It is nice to see a somewhat local content creator! Take care!
Hey man. Love your channel. All of your content is top stuff. I just have one comment to make. It is rather a suggestion for organizing the videos on your page. You often make many types of videos for each game. That is awesome. I do however find it a bit messy to navigate on your channel. If I was running the page I would tag each title like this: "Orleans: How to Survive the Plague", "Orleans: How to play" etc. I notice you make cool thumbnails to help the viewer. I do however think it would improve your channel to make it easier to find what you look for. What do you think about my remark?
@@NightsAroundaTable I had assumed that you could only put a token out if you could complete the action in the space you were placing them. I didn't know that you could assign them to get them out of your market to complete the action on a later turn, and a friend brought it up but I couldn't find the answer somehow. I also didn't know you could free up assigned tokens by paying to free them. Finding things is rule books is apparently a serious weakness on my part.
@@michaelzinda95 No biggie - i think i played 4 or 5 games before i found the bit about freeing up "trapped" characters on the back page of the rulebook, and only as i was studying up to make this video!
Thanks for your feedback, Tom. They're automatically added when you enable a certain setting, but you don't have control over how *many* mid-roll ads they put in. You CAN remove some after the fact, so i took one out. No idea why it's doubling up on the same ad though - that must be down to their ad inventory.
Hey, I really enjoy your videos. Here's a friendly tip though... If you don't name your videos in a more descriptive way (e.g. "How to play: Orleans" they won't show up properly in searches and TH-cam won't reference them. Meaning lower views overall from non-subscribers. I like the cheeky titles, but they're going to do you a disservice!
You would think so, but my view counts have actually seen an uptick since i stopped using the textbook titles you’re suggesting. The title is just one piece of metadata the algorithm used to recommend a video. There’s also the thumbnail, the tags, the transcript, the description, the geographic location, and the video game tie-in (if applicable). And the game name and video style show up in many of those.
this game looks like a dreadful hodgepodge of random mechanisms thrown together over the thinnest veneer of theme. crazy that its rated so highly on bgg
A masterwork in explanation of abstract rules. This is high art. Well done sir!
Thanks, grog!

Thanks so much.
Thank you so much! Glad i could help!
Dude I don't know why but you're nice and slow tone made it so much easier to learn the game... Thank you so much for that
That’s so funny, because if we talk in real life, i motor on at a mile a minute. Must be the script ;)
Fantastic video!! The game's ruley are not easy to explain, but you managed to do it so logicaly it seemed effortless! With all the animation, examples.. hats off! Must have taken you quite some time to make it. Thanks again, and stay safe!
Thanks, Audrey_! This particular project took 24 hours all told. More to come, so stay indoors! :)
A very clear teach! I watched some other video and I was so confused still, you helped!
I really appreciate this video. It shows of Orleans quite well. I had already described it to friends as "Quacks of Quedlinburg meets Village" but it looks even more apt than I realized. With the new print coming out from Capstone games, I will be sure to pick it up!
Thanks Joris! It's definitely worth owning and playing IMO. And i really like the replacement boards in the expansion.
So helpful, thank you!
Top tier video. Love the dedication that goes in to making something as clear and crisp as this.
And Orleans is really great. The "handel" expansion is a must buy tho.
Thanks so much! i've only played once with the Trade board, but it's great! So much more interesting than the base game deeds board.
Thanks for your videos. This one was fantastic, and I also love your Scythe and Terra Mystica videos!

Thanks, Adam! With regards to Rodney, unlike the wild west, i think this town IS big enough for the both of us. :)
Brilliantly described Ryan.

Keep up the great work.
Thanks so much, Mark! It's a good'un!

Played this tonight. Excellent explanation.
Thank you! Did you like the game?

Best intro! Thank you!
I really appreciate your how to videos!

i think the Big Game Grid is the cure for what ails you!

“Monks are Wild”
That WAS going to be the title of this video, until... well, you know.
Thanks for this - you answered a question I had that for some reason I couldn't find an answer to in the rule book. Keep up the good work!
You have me curious! What was the question?

Yet another spectacular how-to-play video from you. Great channel! 🙂
Fantastic explanation!! Thank you
Love your videos! Thanks for doing Orleans!
Great channel with great videos. Just a bit too many (double) commercials. I understand they are neccessary though.

Yes! Great game! Great video!

Don’t knock it til you’ve tried it! It’s just a deck builder with tokens instead of cards.
Lots of commercials.... 5 I think
Bills to pay. Thanks for watching! Those 5 ads probably earned me a shiny ha'penny.
