Excellent how to and demo, best I've seen. Just got the game out again to play solo.

[@doctorSIWAN]

This is hands down the best 'how to' video on TooManyBones I've come across so far!

[@joxer96]

EXCELLENT tutorial! Really, the best I’ve watched. Thanks for putting it together 👍🏼

[@flotin8084]

Vert understandable even for a French person. Congratulations 👏👏👏

[@IndividualAdventures]

thanks for the video, just learnt the game and watching this to catch any rule I've missed! I did spot one error: if a baddie rolls two bones, the back-up skill does not trigger twice. From the rulebook: 8. Baddie Backup Plan (BP) Skills trigger if a Baddie rolls at least the # of shown on the Baddie chip from all its Atk and Def Dice rolls combined this turn. Rolled do not carry over to the next turn.
BP Skills can only be triggered once per turn and are listed on the GARG. BP Skills trigger after resolving rolled Def and Atk, even if the Skill text indicates different timing.

By far the best TMB tutorial. Wow. Ill gibe you a sub and check out your other stuff. Your pacing is perfect. Volume is great. And I've not seen any rules mistakes. Cheers.

made this game seem reasonably simple and straight forward, hope to pick it up soon!

[@asyncritus]

Very nice video. One other small correction besides the two that have been mentioned - when a Gearloc's initiative die is tied with others, you can choose where they go in relation to the other tied units. They don't necessarily have to go before them. It's also worth pointing out that some Tyrants have multiple Tyrant encounter cards, in which case you use them all.

[@IosifStalin2]

[@pierredujardin3104]

I wish you would have continue until day 6 or resolution, but overall, very good.

[@stuggy6077]

Thank you for this vid, it is slowely helping me learn this game, so glad for pause and rewind, I'm sure I'll get my head around it soon. PS, What card holder's are you using and where to get them please?

[@jinsoloboardgames]

Thank you! The card holders are called UberStax! You can build them like legos, very flexible in use.

[@stuggy6077]

@@jinsoloboardgames Just managed to grab a box of 10 x UberStax . 6 x pieces per pack, 60 pieces total. Hassle tho as in the uk but sourced a great deal on new unopened old stock box. Great vid again. More vids'? Diff games'? An thanks' for info on holders
