I was able to get this game before the first KS and it’s still one of my absolute favorites. As you mention, having the stats printed on the standees is a really nice touch. So many cool factions, many of which I still haven’t tried. Great review!!
Thank you for watching and commenting Patrick 😊 Yes, there's a lot of content in this game which makes it with a high value. It's cool everytime to bring it to the table and see how it unfolds
Thank you for another great review. Letting you know of other games which I would like you to review in this channel? Well.. I'll maintain humbleness (this time), while keeping it conceptually related to the video: 1. The Defence of Procyon III 2. Circadians: Chaos Order 3. Anunnaki: Dawn of the Gods 4. Clash of Cultures: Monumental Edition 5. (An upcoming FRENCH crowdfunding which might be worth considering to approach the creator to receive a 'review copy', or even to become a playtester) - Hybris: Twilight in Olympus Best of luck!
@@ezbgames Lol yea my wife is Brazilian so i promise her that one day i will come to Rio to meet her family. I play the boar faction they really slow and fun conquerors. I mostly lose the game but i watched some videos and next time im gone try to win.
No.. not really. It might be a bit annoying with the table presence, but it's not a game killer. And also, for big battles it's comfortable. For the smaller battles I would prefer the stats on the standees.
Funny that you've mentioned DEI.. you should wait for my next video ;) I think there's space in the collection for both. Tsukuyumi is EXTREMELY asymmetric while DEI is not SO asymmetric. I love it in this way.. very very unique. I really like DEI as well but for different reasons- the ease of play, it's relatively quick, open market..
@@ezbgames oh so you don’t know if you’d rank one over the other yet? But awesome I can’t wait until your next video then! Oh and I did get Uprising Curse of the Last Emperor to the table. It was such a beast to unbox and learn so we only got 1 chapter in but I loved it so far! We added in the Arch Nemesis, mercenaries, omens, gems and such from titans as well!
I'm SO excited and happy you got to play Uprising!!! I wish I could be there and play with you. Could have been awesome 🤩 I think that if I need to decide between Tsukuyumi and D.E.I, I'll go with Tsukuyumi. But really they are quite different
@@ezbgames that’d be awesome, id love to play a game with you so day! Oh and I did end up backing Ascendancy, I joined the discord and played a game on TTS with someone teaching me. I thought it was pretty incredible so I bit the bullet and backed it 😂. And I’m sorry to make you have to pick DEI v Tsukuyumi
@@kurtwolffjr9727 hahahaha no don't worry it's a good question since both of them are area control so it makes sense. Ohhh so you know how to plqy Ascendancy!! That's cool! Is it complicated? Glad to hear you had fun because I waw a bit nervous about this one. I spent a lot of money on it..
@@ezbgamesSince I have never played it, nor researched it properly and have to rely entirely on what I have seen in your videos, I would say this: It looks like a solid game with a well structured loop, ditching unnecessary randomness. I am always (well almost always) in favor of deterministic combat. I don't see any truely unique mechanics or approaches to gameplay, as far I can discerne. I don't get much in regard to thematic connect but then again I have no insight into how well / much story or fluff is implemented. Do I desire to buy it? No. Do I crave to try it? No. Would I try it if it came along? Yes. Would I buy it (aside from the current acquisition stop)? On a deep sale, maybe. I simply have no connection or investment to it. Just an other area control. I am a bit tired of that genre.🤷🏻♂️ Edit: Removed a part about tokens that didn't belong here.
@@ezbgamesA solo mode would raise my interest considerably. I am putting more and more weight on solobility. I want to get games get played more often and more regularly, liberated from the group requirements. Played two solo games of Weirdwood Manor last midnight and had a total blast. I'd rather play something solo when I come home late than watch crap on a streaming service. Or playing a game on a Sunday while looking like Al Bundy and roughly giving as much of a **it about it. 😏

Thank you! Love to see more Tsukuyumi
I should do a video for the solo mode 🤘🏽
Great review of a great game! Thanks for this.
The pleasure is all mine 😊😊
Thank you for another great review.

Well.. I'll maintain humbleness (this time), while keeping it conceptually related to the video:
1. The Defence of Procyon III
2. Circadians: Chaos Order
3. Anunnaki: Dawn of the Gods
4. Clash of Cultures: Monumental Edition
5. (An upcoming FRENCH crowdfunding which might be worth considering to approach the creator to receive a 'review copy', or even to become a playtester) -
Hybris: Twilight in Olympus
Best of luck!
Well, what is definitely doable is Anunnaki that I will cover and Clash of Cultures. This is 100%
For the rest- I'll do my best 😊
ALL IN! YOLO!
Let me know how it went 🤩
I really enjoy my last game with 3 people. Cant wait to back from Brazil and try it again 😊😊
You're in Brazil?!
You lucky son of a gun..
Enjoy brother!! ❤❤❤
Which faction did you play?
@@ezbgames
Lol yea my wife is Brazilian so i promise her that one day i will come to Rio to meet her family.
I play the boar faction they really slow and fun conquerors. I mostly lose the game but i watched some videos and next time im gone try to win.
@@elromcohen6751 That sounds amazing.. too bad there's not a connection flight in Paris ;)
Do you find that the reference sheets for each other factions’ miniatures slow down the game significantly?
No.. not really. It might be a bit annoying with the table presence, but it's not a game killer. And also, for big battles it's comfortable.
For the smaller battles I would prefer the stats on the standees.
@@ezbgames gotcha, thanks! I was thinking about backing and that was one of my main concerns
@@parmesean9175 If that's your main concern- don't worry about it. I have also a how-to-play video on the channel if you want :)
How would you compare and rank this one against DEI Divide et Impera another amazing area control game?
Funny that you've mentioned DEI.. you should wait for my next video ;)
I think there's space in the collection for both.
Tsukuyumi is EXTREMELY asymmetric while DEI is not SO asymmetric. I love it in this way.. very very unique.

Thank you for the video. I'm just noticing how you pronounce "components" ... ^^'
😅 am I mispronouncing it..? :)
First! 🥳🎉🍾🥂
Sorry, my praise and adulation reservoir hasn't refilled yet, since your last upload.
haha indeed you are!!
Hahaha how about telling me what did you think of this game?
