Slight correction about your storage capacity - while it is a hard limit, you CAN always replace any tiles in there with new tiles you pick up after you've reached the 3 limit.
I have only just recently played it on BGA and I now understand the love and passion for this game. It’s an elegant design that is easy to learn but so difficult to master.
So the channel “before you play” is where they play the game.. and the channel “watch it played” is where Rodney explains the directions to a game.. you guys need to switch channel names lol. You got it backwards lol.
Why am I not surprised BYP has the cleanest playthrough of Castles of Burgundy on TH-cam? It's the small touches that I notice and appreciate: The use of a dice tray so that components aren't knocked off of their spots, the handy bowl for the workers & silverlings, no messy piles of tiles cluttering the tabletop, etc. Look at that overhead camera shot.👌
I would love to see a video of the popular games that you guys continue to keep and play. As someone who is newer to the hobby, I know there are great games that I will miss unless someone highlights them. A lot of the videos I see on your page are kickstarters or games that I have heard nothing about until you post a video. Would love to see and hear more about what classic / popular games I should look out for.
Never played this game before even though I've heard so much about it... and now I know how it plays thanks to you guys! 😊 Makes my hands itchy haha...
Pro tip: Sell a goods tile early to get an extra silverling, which combined with the one you start out with gives you access to the black tiles in the center. For instance, Monique was torn between getting the castle or the cows in the beginning, but could have gotten both if she used a die to sell goods. It's usually one of the first things I do if the tiles in the center are decent, which they tend to be.
I loved that around min. 4:30 we had a look at how your thought process is when making these videos without the editing. I've always wanted to see and hear that, you guys working out between yourselves in the moment how to explain the next steps you want to cover and how exactly to do it and the speed in which Monique in a matter of seconds transitioned and just kept on explaining the game. Excellent work as always!
It might have been a mistake because I saw the video uploaded and then it was gone for some minutes. Maybe they caught that after they had uploaded it but decided to leave it and re-upload it. I think it was a good decision as I enjoyed the video more because of it. It was nice to see that even if it was just less than a minute. Great stuff either way.
Just demonstrates the amount of work that is needed just for a single game, to plan and execute the recording. They have done a stellar job, effort!! with everything done, and will do so into the future.
I'm sure I'm going to back the Gamefound project because I have loved playing Castles of Burgundy online and with my gaming group, but don't own a copy yet. Now I just need to decide which level to back. Great playthrough!
Ima definitely buying this game..however it is now out of print...there is a new deluxe version about to be released, but it is EXY!! But worth it 😉Love your teaching guys.
I haven't paid much attention to Castles of Burgundy since it didn't look that interesting to me relative to so many other games. However, I've been hearing a lot about it lately and becoming more curious so your video was both timely and excellent in the information that it provided. I've added the game to my To Buy list. Thank you!
Hey Monique and Naveen! So cool to see you guys do a CoB playthrough, and even cooler to hear you reference the little Mine/Silverling rule "oops" that we had in our game at DTW! I feel like an Easter Egg! Anyway, after getting this game (actually the Anniversary edition) for our collection and playing about 10 games in a row with my wife, I have definitely improved my strategy. I did note one little error at the 19:37 mark where Naveen used the Church to take an animal tile (which is light green). The Church is actually only allowed to take a Castle (aka dark green) tile, as well as yellow Knowledge or gray Mine tiles. The other building on the chart to the Church's right (I forgot the name) is the one that allows you to take the light green Animal tiles (as well as the blue Ship tiles). Anyway, loved playing the game with you guys, and next time I see you at a Con, I'm up for a re-match! Happy gaming to you both!!
I love CoB, and also have the first version with muted colours. Would love to watch you two do a full playthrough with the new Special Edition, with the Vineyards expansion included! 😊
Your channel is one of the few that I check into when trying to learn about a game - I like how you not only explain the game, but explain why you are doing what you do on your turns! It helps me understand the game better. I have the anniversary edition and plan on playing my first game tomorrow! However ... at the 44:55 time stamp it looks like Naveen changed his die but did not spend a worker to do it (unless he had some sleight of hand that I missed).
I just picked up this version of CoB because the new reprints look too busy. While the colors may not pop like the new ones, the functionality of this board outweighs that minor con. I’m excited to play, I think this will be a new favorite!
Hi Monique and Naveen! I've a confession to make - I've watched many of your videos and really enjoyed your playthroughs and teaches, but didn't realize that I've not yet subscribed to your channel! That changes to today - in fact, it was BoardGameCo that referred me back to you and helped me notice this. Most recently learned Isle of Cats, Long Shot and Alchemists through your videos. Thank you so much for all that you do!
I'm here for the deluxe reprint, checking if this game is for me and if I should back it. Very clear explanation of the rules! Followed by a fun playthrough. You always make perfect videos! ❤
Stop! I’m 4 minutes in and you didn’t tell me what any of these supplies are! You just start putting stuff down without explaining what it is. Plus the girl talks too fast!
Never played and had access to this game, hope the Special Edition holds immense experience from the already brilliant base game. This is also Naveen's super favourite 😄.
I've just discovered this game on BGA and it is so good! I've also just binged your Uwe Rosenberg series, which was exceptional. Might you have any plans to do a Stefan Feld series at any point?
@59:53 2 silvers are used to purchase a building from the #6 depot and a knowledge tile was referenced. I'm guessing this knowledge tile allows you to spend silver on tiles outside the center black area. I'm playing with the updated 2019 version of the game with "monastery" tiles. I guessing the knowledge tile referenced is the equivalent of the "Monastery #6" tile. On BGG I found some discussion about this tile's power to allow (or not allow) silver to be used to purchase tiles in the numbered depots. Can anyone provide more clarification on this move? It is still not clear, what do I need in my duchy to be able to use silver to purchase numbered depot tiles?
Great instruction and playthrough! One note, at 7:55 you mention the limit of 3 tiles in your keyspaces and that you cannot discard. I believe this is worthy of a Klingon subtitle, you may spend a die to discard a tile from your keyspace. :) Hope this helps
This is a late comment but just saw this, and actually played it yesterday. And we concluded that those yellow tiles that gives you end game scoring are sooo strong! Was way ahead in our game but lost it thanks to those.
I can't tell if it's editing or if you guys actually play at this pace. It takes my wife and me at least 3 hours to play through a game. The AP is real. It's very cut throat in our house.
Start to finish filming this with the teach and discussion was 2:05, edited out the downtime for audience experience. This game can absolutely be cut throat!
I own the game but haven't been able to play it. Hope to get it to the table soon. I'm nervous of trying it on bga as I feel it's to big for my phone but I may try it.
Does this mean that longer playthroughs are finally back and that uwe rosenburg series is back? And are you going to showcase the difference between the two version of castle of burgundy on the channel?
In the last round , if I am not mistaken, Monique you had the special city tile that would have given you 4 workers you needed and could have place both of your two city tiles and win the bonus of completing all of your cities. Great gameplay though for the two of you. Greetings from Greece
This is awesome timing. I just finished reading the rule book this past weekend and hope to play it very soon. Love your playthroughs! They are the best out there in my opinion 😊
@22:10: I think the correct choice here for Monique would have been to: 1. Buy the castle with the two silverlings she received from the bank. 2. Use her "4" pip dice to place the castle. 3. Use the castle placement bonus (wild die) to take the only (non-centre) ship left. Her objective in the 5th round (of phase A) would be: 1. To first to sell any one good to make room for more goods and get a second silverling (all players start with one). 2. Now that she has two silverlings, she could buy the four cows now. 3. Now that she has room for more goods, she could place her ship onto one of the spots adjacent to the recently placed castle. Doing this sets herself up to become the first player in the second phase (B) so she'll have the first pick of a freshly fed board (hugely beneficial).
I had this game (1st edition) but sold it quickly and got Grand Austria Hotel instead. GAH is most of the time sold out, the editions are limited and if you manage to get the hands-on it, get it !!!! There is a lovely theme, a great variety of actions and most importantly, I'm not getting a headache from dice. In Castles of burgundy, you're always scanning the dice numbers - on the main board, on your personal board, on single goods etc... and it's even a bigger headache to sort the tiles based on colors etc...
I recently designed a 3D-printable insert and dice tower for the original printing of The Castles of Burgundy. Increase fun and reduce setup and teardown time :D models can be found on printables (for free of course)
Every time I buy or receive a new game, I check hoping you have a play through or review of the game! I just got the Special Edition of this game and was so happy that you had a play through. And I got the game because of Naveen’s high recommendation! Thank you!
Nice Play through. CoB is one of my wifes and my most favorite games. This makes me want to play it right now. Tentatively getting the new version on Gamefound. I need to investigate the Vineyards expansion to see if that is enticing. The other advantage is it gets us the expansions we dont have. Early in the video, at turn 4 of the first round. Monique says "Its the penultimate turn". Naveen "Are you going to say that 5 times?" i laughed out loud ..for real. Thanks for giving me a nice relaxing watch with my morning coffee. take care!
We just got the new edition of the game and tried it for the first time. Like you, we mixed the extension tiles in, but didn't take them out when we noticed. Maybe we should ... I lost 115 to 193. I will get there when we play again though.
Hi! We played this version of CoB tonight for the first time and loved it so much! Thank you for exposing us to it, for your enthusiasm, and for your awesome vid!
I loved this playthrough. I have the same version but don’t get to play it very often. So I had fun playing along with you. I was sweating it out with Naveen at the end 😬 Thank you for this video.
Such a classic game. One of my favourites for sure.. never gets old for me. Also, this version is just fine how it is. I find the Awaken Realms version to be... very excessive.. lol. Games don't need to be blinged out to be absolutely brilliant.
I managed to get a sealed copy of the anniversary edition for $15. Played for the first time a week ago and it's awesome. I waited to long to try it out. Great Video!
Hello from Vancouver, BC! We just picked up this exact copy of the game two days ago and was thrilled to see you come out with this teach and playthrough! Really excited to dive into it now! Also, I love your dice tray! Is it still available for purchase somewhere?
This is a fun game and I’ll never turn down a game of it. But I don’t have it on my collection and have zero inclination to get it… even the beautiful new version.
What is fascinating in this game, with player count it actually changes a lot. 2 players is more like "do the best with what you can get", 4 players is more of a "do the most efficient county with pretty much all options available to you". P.S. yellow is mistaken with light green quite often :)
Slight correction about your storage capacity - while it is a hard limit, you CAN always replace any tiles in there with new tiles you pick up after you've reached the 3 limit.
Ahh good catch, just checked the rulebook! Looks like they put a note in there to avoid doing it lol.
I've been playing this game for years and only just learned this when I went to play on Boardgame Arena for the first time!
Then where does the replaced tile go that was in the storage?
@@joshe118 Goes out of the game, back to the box :)
@@dkoudrin I see, thanks!! 👍
I have only just recently played it on BGA and I now understand the love and passion for this game. It’s an elegant design that is easy to learn but so difficult to master.
It really is a fantastic design that stands the test of time in our opinion. Such an easy ruleset and love the asymmetric player boards.
So the channel “before you play” is where they play the game.. and the channel “watch it played” is where Rodney explains the directions to a game.. you guys need to switch channel names lol. You got it backwards lol.
I'm so stoked for the special edition. It looks gorgeous!
Excellent tutorial. I have just gotten the new deluxe version, and I have found your playthrough the best in explaining how to play.
Excellent playthrough. It answered some of my game flow questions before I had to teach the game tonight.
Why am I not surprised BYP has the cleanest playthrough of Castles of Burgundy on TH-cam? It's the small touches that I notice and appreciate: The use of a dice tray so that components aren't knocked off of their spots, the handy bowl for the workers & silverlings, no messy piles of tiles cluttering the tabletop, etc. Look at that overhead camera shot.👌

Burgundy's Castle is really fun~ I couldn't do it offline because I didn't have anyone to play with, but I did it online
Never played this game before even though I've heard so much about it... and now I know how it plays thanks to you guys! 😊 Makes my hands itchy haha...
Great playthrough! Thank you!
Thanks Terry, hope you have been doing well!
Lol, Monique's big building section is a 7, not an 8 as you mentioned multiple times :D
That realization was hilarious!!
Great video as always. I think you would get mine rewards at the end of final phase too.
Ahh, missed that, you are right!
Wooow, he said i wont take your cows, so dont take my chickens. And u took his chickens....
So, did you guys get the Deluxe version!?
We did! It's quite Deluxe lol. We'll be discussing it in a future LTBG episode.
I really want this game but it might be a little to complicated for my family.
Just gotta turn them all into gamers!
@@BeforeYouPlay I'm trying 😄
OK, so I see Monique does much better when not put into a speed-game of Castles. ;)
A bit of behind-the-scenes around 4:30 😆
That is commonly known as a "Tom Vasel moment". ;)
HAHA yup we made a whoopsie!
Love Naveen’s reaction at 1:05:34

Yeah it's kind of a behind the scenes dvd extra. As they are always so energetic i had to check if I had paused by mistake the first few seconds
I came to the comments to see who else noticed and what they said haha. super interesting lol. definitely like a dvd extra like Sergio said haha.
Seems like they missed a cut in editing that’s all haha or this is intensional.

It is a great game. Once everyone has played before ..twice you always have the differnet player fiefdoms/maps to vary.
Your mines pay off in the final round as well.
Good call!
don't you just hate that everything needs to be premium product these days? and even worse, majority wants it 😥

Yup we have plans to start recording playthroughs again soon! Unfortunately we wont be comparing the different versions of this game though. :(

Was hoping y’all would play this for us! So excited to watch :)

are the two edetions the same, ruleswise? the original one and the new one?
Hi there, yes they are exactly the same.
I think at 19:20, Naveen did the wrong action by taking a farm tile instead of the castle tile by using the bonus of the Church tile after placing it.

I managed to get a sealed copy of the anniversary edition for $15. Played for the first time a week ago and it's awesome. I waited to long to try it out.
Great Video!
Love this game!!
Such a classic!
It's nice to see that your new camera is up and running. Nice editing. I'm glad you played Castles of Burgundy :)
Hello from Vancouver, BC! We just picked up this exact copy of the game two days ago and was thrilled to see you come out with this teach and playthrough! Really excited to dive into it now!
Also, I love your dice tray! Is it still available for purchase somewhere?
This is a fun game and I’ll never turn down a game of it. But I don’t have it on my collection and have zero inclination to get it… even the beautiful new version.
Can't wait for the special edition. Getting pumped up from this video.
I love this game! My favorite Feld game.
Same and same!!
Thank you all for another great video looking forward to the Deluxe copy coming in :D
What is fascinating in this game, with player count it actually changes a lot. 2 players is more like "do the best with what you can get", 4 players is more of a "do the most efficient county with pretty much all options available to you". P.S. yellow is mistaken with light green quite often :)
i enjoyed your play through ... i recently got the updated version so im passing on the deluxe copy
