JOIN US ON PATREON FOR OUR SPECIAL HALLOWEEN DOUBLE DROP! To celebrate the end of spooky season with a bang, we have sent our brave cosmonauts to fight off Night Stalkers in an exclusive game of NEMESIS LOCKDOWN. Available now on www.patreon.com/NoRollsBarred
John really is a DnD expert. He even forgot to add his Hunter's Mark damage until the next turn. I dont know a single ranger who hasnt done that at least once
One minor rules thing that was missed, once Jon had the Berserkers Axe he would have been required to attack the NPC on his square before leaving. It would have given Tilly one more shot at him. Ultimately it likely doesn't change anything but it could have.
Yaaaayyyyyyy it's Betrayal!!! And there's Tilly... And there's Tom... LOVE it when it's a full house... And it's a 2+ hour video. You guys really are spoiling us... Now off to watch the video 😛
comment section is dead asleep on the "I hate Space Mondays, said Starfield" gag, it was so funny they literally had to edit the video back under control
A dom episode is always a good episode. Can’t shake the feeling dom is going to led a Coup d'état and take over the channel. Getting one seat closer to Laurie.
I'm hoping this is a preview of the cast of the upcoming RPG. Such a fun group with a good mix of silly and serious. And I keep forgetting that the cast are all working actors/comedians/voice actors beyond just being excellent on TH-cam, so hearing that Tilly voiced a character in the Baldurs Gate video game was a bit of a surprise!
The drow was evil? Who could have seen that coming? The ending was a bit surprising though, when the gang smashed the coffin I thought it was over when Jon suddenly turned everyone into juice boxes in a surprise twist. Starting with Dom was a good strategy, the glass canon is both an easy kill and the one person (besides possibly Holly if she had rolled better) that seriously could hurt him. Well played Jon. :) I do love how offended Jon got in the beginning when they teased him for being the probable traitor only to be right and all die horrible.
The fact that Jon was already so good with Speed and Might, and was so lucky to get the vampire that gave him the max stat of both, he was so overpowered
@@Nehu_22 That is certainly true but Jon been unlucky in most games so it was bound to happen sooner or later. He still played well and deserved to win, the other players were a bit chaotic and that tend to work poorly against the vampire.
Great episode guys! Love this version of Betrayal! Two things: 4th edition is NOT rubbish. 😜 And destroying the coffin in Haunt 8 is a Might/Sanity ROLL with a DC, not an attack… Sorry, no Beserker Axes or other attack modifying items/Omens/abilities/substitutes/etc. allowed! 😢 Keep up the good work!
I think the heroes lost for two reasons :- Dom was left unprotected :- Holly wasted time smashed coffins instead of beating up John to keep his physical stats down
An interesting point to lower John's stats. Though overkilling with the coffin still up (John could intentionally drop a single stat to death) would undo the effect. The biggest reason was John just having such high speed: ignores caltrops, immune to the crossbow which could have really whittled him down, and could easily run to all the npcs
Dom shouting out Dungeon Crawl Classics (as Jon's spooky shadow), I love it! On that note, I think I speak for a lot of people when I say nobody will mind if you just play 5e/1D&D, but I'd love to see a DCC or other deadlier system run. I think DCC specifically has an energy that would really play well with the personalities on this channel, and the level 0 "oh no my characters are dropping like flies" would be hilarious.
1:12:30 Can you use the axe to smash the coffin? Is it an attack against the coffin, or are you making a Might roll? If its a Might roll I don't think it's classed as an attack, meaning you wouldn't (paradoxically) be allowed to use the Axe to smash the coffin.
Don't worry, she said she taught little miss Titwhistle all she knows if you listen carefully :) Considering how quickly she smashed em, too, I don't doubt it!
@@doylerudolph7965 see but old Marge would've been the perfect counter to count dabula. He had a weakness to mental attacks and we all know she would've destroyed his all his self esteem
The gang need to play Escape From Colditz with Dom as the camp commandant, Sully as the Brits, Teri the French, Blair the Americans, Laurie the Dutch and Tilly as the Poles. People think this is an all vs one game but it's actually everyone for themselves and I could certainly see some people selling each other out whilst others work together.
ok so i havent made it to the end but destroying the coffins isnt an attack roll. its a stat check roll. they are might and sanity rolls but arnt attacks so the weapons do not aid in destroying them.
Wow this is the first Non Sullivan episode is months. Cool. Im just glad Dom is here. (Congratulations on your two podcast awards Dom, in case you see this while lurking in the comments.)
Fun fact: I was actually playing Starfield on a monday evening when I first "watched" this (more like listened to and occasionally looked over) and was screaming with laughter with the whole "I don't like mondays" said Starfield-bit!
So I just wanna say I just found this channel looking up for a board game I just got (The Dead of Winter) and I wish I lived near this sick cafe cause I love board games so much and don’t have many friends to play with. I do however come to work early to play board games with my coworker/best friend and we have a blast. So thank you for this channel just to have to watch. It’s super awesome watching these games since Table Top and Game the Game haven’t released anything in a few years.
This was a good Halloween game with a lot of fun! Laurie did a good job keeping up with the rules and pointing things out, even when it hurt his side. I know some people don't like how much Betrayal can swing, but I think it is more fun than a lot of heavier games where you can know you will lose almost from the start due to just not being as strategic/getting dealt a bad starting hand. Your mileage may vary, but I think the losing side had a good shot to win before certain decisions put it out of reach. I also really enjoyed all the DnD references, even from known DnD hater Jon.
Great job Laurie and team. Keep rolling! I admire the effort it takes to pivot and reforge yourselves in the face of what's going on and you are doing wonderfully.
Yeah, it really shows the danger of waiting for the fight to come to you. Holly should have followed after Jon or been the sole person on coffin duty while the others go after him. In every version of Betrayal, it seems that getting everyone into the basement area is a bad idea.
I'm so happy you did another of the Betrayal games! It's one of my absolute all time favorite games! And what a amazing episode! :D Thanks for the amazing show once again!
The event cards often answer the questions the players have if they just read beyond the roll results. Holly's first one explains what happens if you ignore the chest and Tom's first event has a bonus result based on all 3 rolls being successful.
Some bold polish choices today. Kinda nice to have ones nails on point though before a board game where there will be a fair bit of hand focus I suppose.
45:19 this would be a good card to explain roll results prior to making a choice. Because the card gives you a stat boost for the selected trait, Dom might have chosen differently if one stat was able to increase his future dice rolls, but instead just defaulted to an irrelevant/nonexistant mechanic (his personal reaction to bugs) to make the choice since the number of dice would be the same.
I have this one myself. I play gretchen every time. Won a game while being a turtle. Think the whole party nearly wet themselves laughing as im trying to be a turtle and attack things XD

should maybe PIN this
Never played D&D before, this looks so much fun! Could you make a D&D playlist as you do this more frequently please
John really is a DnD expert. He even forgot to add his Hunter's Mark damage until the next turn. I dont know a single ranger who hasnt done that at least once
Do you know how many times I've done this?! AND I DON'T EVEN PLAY RANGER!
I'm a ranger that's never done that. Because I play a decent edition of the rules.
I think we all know the true hero of this video: the giant fly. Go on to that great garbage heap in the sky, sweet prince.
Tilly using her nerd voice to "well actual" rules lawyer the table made my day.
Tilly voicing a character in BG3 is legitimately awesome.
Jon's Starfield joke broke me, fantastic!
She did more than voice a character, she was also a voice and performance director
@@n_mcgWell now I _have_ to neglect any responsibilities I have and immediately purchase the game and its dlc and never see the light of day again.
Perfect role too, I went through the whole game trying to see if I could spot her. 5 seconds into meeting Rion, I went: Ah! There she is!
I don't get it. Why doesn't Dom, the greatest of the board game clubbers, simply eat the others?
He had a large meal before playing ;P
AND he's a DCC enjoyer. He literally doesn't miss.
Board Game Club Sandwich
Perhaps they are saving that for sweeps
On an unrelated note, Where's Sullivan?
An epic episode with the legendary trio: Tom, Dom and Jom!
Jom Mizzrym!
I cannot get over the name "Torskar" as a "badass barbarian name". It literally means "cods" in Swedish. I love it.
It can also mean loses, as in lost the game.
Tilly schooling Jon on how to pronounce his characters name is too funny
Given she's worked on Balders gate 3
@@DarTunwarmw
I only watch if Tiily is there, the coy deadpan is adorable lol
Bit disappointed that Jon didn't read his "if you win" text from the Traitor's Tome at the end 😢
How Jon didn't get joke of the day for "I hate space Mondays" is baffling to me, that sent me :)
"Am bush, it's a sentient shrub" was excellent as well!
1:41:14 "Dhadalus, he flew too close to his son!"
If you search for Garfield, you WILL find him.
Don't forget "he's been turned into Crangleberryjuice." There were a lot of contenders for joke of the day.
One minor rules thing that was missed, once Jon had the Berserkers Axe he would have been required to attack the NPC on his square before leaving. It would have given Tilly one more shot at him. Ultimately it likely doesn't change anything but it could have.
Seems like Holly shouldn't have been able to move out of her square with Jon for the same reason tho
An episode with Dom is an episode I’ll enjoy
Dhaddy Dom
You mean Stalin?
Dom always dies first
Yaaaayyyyyyy it's Betrayal!!! And there's Tilly... And there's Tom... LOVE it when it's a full house... And it's a 2+ hour video. You guys really are spoiling us... Now off to watch the video 😛
I love Jon's quote to Dom "I like the idea your rod is still firmly in my mouth".
comment section is dead asleep on the "I hate Space Mondays, said Starfield" gag, it was so funny they literally had to edit the video back under control
Space Lasagna
As a fellow resident of York, I can confirm Dom's badger fact.
Teri sneezing in French is obviously the highlight reel moment

Bit random maybe, but I'm always delighted to see the lads with their nails done. Crushing it. 💅
"I like the idea that your rod is still firmly in my mouth." Ooh, Jon! Very much Carry On, Screaming there.
A dom episode is always a good episode.
Can’t shake the feeling dom is going to led a Coup d'état and take over the channel. Getting one seat closer to Laurie.
His power will only grow
Ah yes. The true head of the channel... Larry. The Cucumber.
Aw... He corrected himself. I thought it was funny.
That would be properly Stalinist
I mean, it already looks like he has eaten Sullivan, so sooner or later...
#TeamDom
Lovely seeing Tom again!
Tom's 'sentient shrub' joke was an underappreciated gem.
About half of Tom's jokes are, tbf.
I had to scroll through the comments to see if any other people thought that his joke should have been the joke of the day. Glad others caught it!
That Starfield burn was so good
Better than Starfield was.
I'm hoping this is a preview of the cast of the upcoming RPG. Such a fun group with a good mix of silly and serious. And I keep forgetting that the cast are all working actors/comedians/voice actors beyond just being excellent on TH-cam, so hearing that Tilly voiced a character in the Baldurs Gate video game was a bit of a surprise!
I think she actually voiced several and also was a director for other voice actors. Very talented lady!
I always miss Sully when he is not in an episode but having this cast makes up for it ❤ Can't wait to watch!
Sully has gone on the record on the podcast that he hates betrayal so I'm very much not surprised he sat this one out lol
@@josephtoner7355 Thats fair. Can't like all games but I will still miss his personality ❤️

Tilly and Doms friendship is my favorite thing
Always a pleasure to see Tom at the table :)
BALDUR'S GATE AND TILLY! A dream combo!
Honestly, I'd pay to have Tom record my books for me. His voice is way too soothing.
I like when Laurie does the intros, the jokes are just expertly laid within sentences that quickly explain the rules- top notch
Great episode guys! Love this version of Betrayal!

Jon's "space monday" joke almost made me choke on my food. Too bad the full reaction got intermissioned
Love the dry delivery Tom has. Glad he's back for this one.
Yep
44:55 That's probably the most adorable moment in NRB history!
While i am sad at the lack of a Cthulu group game this year i am super excited for some betrayal, especially with a baldurs gate flavor.
I have a feeling when the new TTRPG channel kicks off Dom will want to make Call of Cthulhu a regular feature, possibly even a campaign.
@@lexicornfell7361if we are very lucky and they want to we could have apocalypse players guesting.
Dom shouting out Dungeon Crawl Classics (as Jon's spooky shadow), I love it!

I think they got this wrong. It is a might/sanity roll, so it's a check not an attack.
Is it just me or is Jon getting more fabulous with each episode?
Appreciation post for Tilly referencing "Can ah pet that daaaaaaawg" 💀💀💀
Well well well, wouldn't this have been a great time to have good ole Margie Thatcher in your party.
Don't worry, she said she taught little miss Titwhistle all she knows if you listen carefully :)
Considering how quickly she smashed em, too, I don't doubt it!
@@doylerudolph7965 see but old Marge would've been the perfect counter to count dabula. He had a weakness to mental attacks and we all know she would've destroyed his all his self esteem
I'm already enjoying the cast for today! Missed Tom! And any episode with Dom on it will be fun!
Geez! That ending! A very enjoyable episode and loved it!
Jon's rolling is INSANE
I found Tilly's character in Baldur's Gate 3 about a month ago now. No spoilers, but everyone should explore
She plays multiple characters! Wonderful surprise the second time I found her
What is the character's name? I didn't really catch it in the video.
@@CamoCraft109 Sounded like "Una" or "Oona" to me.
Just want to say that I think Laurie is doing a fantastic job! New dynamic feels more like an ensemble - and I'm totally here for it.
The gang need to play Escape From Colditz with Dom as the camp commandant, Sully as the Brits, Teri the French, Blair the Americans, Laurie the Dutch and Tilly as the Poles. People think this is an all vs one game but it's actually everyone for themselves and I could certainly see some people selling each other out whilst others work together.
Shrine to Bhaal was perfect, it just fit thematically.
@55:01, Jon Gracey doing his best Scooby Doo villain impression. 😆
The first rule of board game club is foreshadowing the new channel! And none of us knew that until now!
ok so i havent made it to the end but destroying the coffins isnt an attack roll. its a stat check roll. they are might and sanity rolls but arnt attacks so the weapons do not aid in destroying them.
Wow this is the first Non Sullivan episode is months. Cool. Im just glad Dom is here. (Congratulations on your two podcast awards Dom, in case you see this while lurking in the comments.)
Thank you!
Sullivan hates this game, he said so on one of their podcasts.
Specially happy seeing Tilly on Baldur's Gate related content!
I’m glad you all found Dadius as hilarious as my group did 😂
Fun fact: I was actually playing Starfield on a monday evening when I first "watched" this (more like listened to and occasionally looked over) and was screaming with laughter with the whole "I don't like mondays" said Starfield-bit!
So is this game literally Betrayal at House on the Hill, but in a fantasy setting?
Because that theme is right up my street.
It is. Really fun!
Jon putting his coffin in the easiest location for them to destroy it
Yessss! I love this edition. A friend bought it for my birthday last year and we had a blast playing it
Oh, it's bespectacled, cap-less Laurie!! Why thank you!! 😊

Shout out to the animators for the accurate portrayal of the characters on the intro clip...
Truely a glorious episode with glorious Dom

Great job Laurie and team. Keep rolling! I admire the effort it takes to pivot and reforge yourselves in the face of what's going on and you are doing wonderfully.
1:31:00 "Your rod is still firmly in my mouth" O.o omg hahahahaha
Boy did this swing real hard. An absolutely devastating defeat for the heroes.
Yeah, it really shows the danger of waiting for the fight to come to you. Holly should have followed after Jon or been the sole person on coffin duty while the others go after him. In every version of Betrayal, it seems that getting everyone into the basement area is a bad idea.
tom is back! today is a good day
Incredible game, incredible cast, Happy Halloween NRB!
I hope you all had fun, cuz this was a pain for our group to watch. never have i screamed louder at my TV lol.
That's an impressive amount of sexual innuendo just in the intro.
" i like the idea that your rod is firmly in my mouth" Jon 2023
Dislike that this went completely under the radar 1:32:36
A night out in paris, very much different to "One Night In Paris"
Also it's great to see Tom back!
"That was my vacation coffin!"
I'm so happy you did another of the Betrayal games! It's one of my absolute all time favorite games! And what a amazing episode! :D Thanks for the amazing show once again!
I honestly thought it would be just a landslide after the haunt, didn't expect at all how it went.

They call it the boomerang because they always come back for more
I'm so looking forward to the new channel!!
I'm off to buy the critically acclaimed Baulder's Gate 3 now that I know Tilly was involved!
22:36 Loved the shots being fired at Starfield...😂
I was so rooting for Mugtilly to get off one good shot! The fly was great, but alas 'twas not two bees.
Where do you think the origin of the DAB started?
Dracula's A Bat. DAB. 🎤⬇️
Dan and Dannan *are* two cool chaps, just like Jon! And so are Dom and Joseph 🥰
Some bold polish choices today. Kinda nice to have ones nails on point though before a board game where there will be a fair bit of hand focus I suppose.
