Paul, I finally got this game for $15 used after 9 years of waiting. I took a trip in your Time Machine back 8 years. Enjoying it! It so odd to see older videos and how people have changed. I have videos going back to 2006! We are like TH-cam Dinosaurs.
These are the best game rules/how to play videos I think I've ever seen. I hope "What's Your Game" is employing you, if not they should. Excellent choice in games to review too.
Thanks for the comments. These videos were commissioned work from the publisher. I also worked a lot on the rulebooks for the last 3 games from them (Nippon, Signorie, ZhanGuo)
Your videos are great! You explain the games clearly and concisely, you keep a good tempo with your voice, and both your photography and CGI are excellent! Please keep these videos coming!
+Good Dog Workshop Appreciate the comments. A lot of work goes into the script and storyboard to try and ensure it is clear and concise. I'm always working on more videos, but with the time it takes, my content output will never match a lot of the other producers of videos :)
Great "How to Play" video Paul! One thing I don't believe was mentioned in this video was that a player at any point during their turn can discard 3 blueprints to raise the level of their coal track, money track, or knowledge track. This seems to be an often overlooked rule. This rule is mentioned in the Sequnce of Play section (pg. 4) of the rulebook.
Excellent How To video! I know that nothing replaces the usual reading of a rule book, but, I just want to know if is there any other little tiny rule that you left unmentioned in this How To video? Again, great job. Solid teaching.
+Gabriel Ferreira Only the extra 2x multiplier tiles, which I placed by the side of the board in setup. In 5 games, I've never needed them. Also 2-3 player rules are slightly different for setup and the number of influence tiles that can be placed around each city.
If you like playing turned based games, then they have Nippon on BoardGameArena. I've never played but if you want an easy victory then leave your BGA username and I'll invite you for a game.
This is so helpful Paul - you manage to make complex games seem playable - one problem I end up spending more money! But seriously - fantastic

Yeah, I've changed a lot, and my videos have changed a lot. Glad this was useful, the game is great.
The editing/production of this is amazing! Thank you very much for all the time and effort to put this together.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Wow, your way of explaining is excellent. Simple, showing the logic behind the mechanics, and with very elucidative examples. Thanks man.
Thanks for the comment :)
Thanks Paul, going to try this on BGA and may add it to the list

Brilliant work !! Thanks Paul
+Nuno Bizarro Sentieiro Thankyou for making a brilliant game again.
Now I REALLY wish I'd managed to play this at BGGcon! Great video, this does look like an interesting game.

Paul, you did a great job explaining this game!
Great explanation of the game! I played it last night and it's super fun!
Thanks for another wonderful video! After playing a few games of Signorie, it's time to try Nippon out!

Always such great videos! All the rules in half the time of less skilled tutors.
Wow, this videos are very well produced! Congrats!
+Play Cool Thanks. I put an awful lot of time into them to try and get them as good as possible :)
Thanks Paul! Now I'm ready for game 1 of day 2 of the CON... after your help on The Gallerist helped me to a win. :)
+Jamie Maltman Any time. Glad the video helped :)
Your overview for Kanban helped me to victory too... along with Vital Lacerda doing a great job with his BGG thread game walkthrough. :D

Nice. Thanks a lot for your reply.
Great video. Very professional.
Like your accent Paul, where are you from?
originally the north-west of England, but I've moved around a fair bit, so it is more neutral now
Great video. Thanks!
Great video, really helpful
Thanks. Glad it was useful.
Great video
+Adhil Patel Thanks for the comment. Hope the video helped you learn how to play.
+Gaming Rules! I actually knew how to play already, but the Heavy Cardboard guys mentioned your video specifically so I had to come check it out.
found your video! subbed. :)
Hi Paul, we used to play netrunner in hatfield. thx for the rules!
Blast from the past! :)
If you like playing turned based games, then they have Nippon on BoardGameArena. I've never played but if you want an easy victory then leave your BGA username and I'll invite you for a game.
I'm playing a game of it right now :) BGG username is Tethior
Great video! Sadly, it only makes me want to play this more, and I can't. Sad face.
Paul Grogan is the man 👍🏻
thanks Paul
