PIE-us: devout/highly religious; AB-bess: female who runs an abbey/convent (female analogue of an abbot in a monastery). Sounds like your ancient and character will go together well. To speed setup, I created 4 baggies: each with the 4 enemy tokens, 4 black hearts, 4 red hearts, 4 fate tokens, and 1 gold token. (I also added 8 cubes of the enemy color token to aid in some tracking, but those don't come in the box. :) ) Looking forward to seeing your playthrough!
I really like how you can pick a class and race, and then you can choose those items to start with from any of the decks. It seems like it makes the game really variable, and I like that the item cards have locations attached to them. I agree it is weird that the standees match the class and not the races. Knowing next to nothing about this game, I wonder if there are a lot of game effects that reference a class instead of race? I could see it being more useful then to quickly find the class on the board effected, but again, I have no idea how the game works outside of what I have seen from these first two videos. Definitely excited to see the game play!
+James Sexton Not sure myself yet about the game referring to classes but I'm sure there's a reason. That may be it. Great to hear you're excited about GoK! :)
Looking forward to you telling your story as the game progresses...I seen a couple of playthroughs and the mechanics of a rumour and an item etc keep getting mentioned when what I really want to hear is someone take them keywords and build the narrative more.
+Steve Burling Hey Steve, I completely agree. I will be trying to weave a story together with this one as best as I can! This playthrough is in the que! Cheers!
looking forward to your playthrough. with which rumour to keep to start with I'd suggest the one to be found in the badlands as you have that as a keyword requirement for your saga good luck.
Thanks Kenrick! That’s kind of you to say. Hope it shows up for you soon. I’ve heard it’s on it’s way from the KS. I don’t believe it does but the new KS might have added that? I’m a bit foggy on that. Hmm!
Hey Michael, I'm using Fantasy Flight Sleeves here. I bounce between them and Mayday Premium. Although I also am trying out MAGE sleeves in the near future.
Thanks, Adam. I am on the hunt for this game and hope I can find one when my finances can accommodate it. I have some KMC Perfect Fit sleeves around, but I don't think that I have enough for the whole game, and I was not impressed with them anyway. What is the size for the Skill and Plot cards? They seem to be smaller than the other cards. Keep up the great videos!
So this is why there is duplicates of the standees. Really poor decision on the designers part. You’d think after 10 years of development that he would’ve noticed this.

+winterzee Nice. Thanks for the heads up winterzee! I like your idea on splitting up the tokens. Smart move! Cheers

First gloomhaven, now this. You really know what the great games are
+Tim Voermans Thanks Tim! Appreciate the compliment. I do my research to find the great ones. :)
Jts been a year from this comment, and its still true:)
Looking forward to this run through! Thanks, Adam.

Great videos, and great instruction. I see most of your card decks are sleeved, where is the best place to buy these sleeves?
Hey Bob! I bounce between Mayday and Fantasy Flight sleeves. Primarily I go with Mayday to reduce cost.
Did I just see some TMB components @9:55?? :D
Hmm I don’t know ;)

Thanks for the feedback Nick! :)
Stunning art and great set up explanation - awaiting my KS and expansion with bated breath - does the game come with card dividers for storage ?
Thanks Kenrick! That’s kind of you to say. Hope it shows up for you soon. I’ve heard it’s on it’s way from the KS. I don’t believe it does but the new KS might have added that? I’m a bit foggy on that. Hmm!
yesssseseee
What are the card sleeves ? Size etc.Thank you in advance.Kind regards.
+apollonia Hey Apollonia! I'll get back to you on this. They're either FFG or Mayday sleeves but I have to double check that and also the sizes.
What kind of sleeves are you using with GoK??

Hey Victor! This is feedback Tristan would gladly take. Feel free to reach out to him on BGG. You’ll be surprised how open he is to feedback! Cheers!
