      We’re all human and make mistakes (or have brushes with insanity). There’s always something in a rule book that will be vague or can be interpreted multiple ways.

    With toughness do you ignore the entire die or just the "success" from it? You seemed to ignore one that was a success/tentacle against Sister Beth. Just curious as to whether or not she should have taken an extra sanity and just ignored the wound or if that was correct.

      Holy cow brawling is a beast power when you max it out, but I think you still get your 2 free rerolls per attack even after you leave level 2 to level 3, right? If so, you seem to have stopped doing that outright.

    You completely forgot to take account of the Monkey paw for Rasputin, he should have take 2 wounds when getting it, then a lot of sanity damage in the next turn ((the first roll had 2 elder sign symbol, the second one, another one) and probably after. But nice video anyway since you were consistent (you didn't apply neither the good effect nor the bad one, it was like you discarded it).

    • @DaletheCasualGamer
      @DaletheCasualGamer  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      With the Monkey Paw, you only take two wounds if you have the monkey, and the effect is a “may”, which really isn’t any good if you have arcane mastery, unless you want to take sanity damage. I could have discarded it but thought there may come a time when I wanted sanity damage to “level up”. Thanks for watching! Have you had a chance to play the game solo or in a group?

    Got this game over x-mas, it's a shame it's so messy - the monsters not being able to fit on the board properly when there's more than a couple, keeping track of individual monsters health especially whilst moving and a couple of other rough edges really keep me from loving this game.

      Tiles definitely feel like they should be a little larger given how often stuff is spawning in. Some kind of health dial in the bases also seems like it might be useful. Maybe a cutout with a cardboard spinner visible through it.
      When you've got one mini that takes up an entire room, that's never gonna play comfortably with horde spawning as well.
