I've been contemplating rereading the series as well, I finished it back when book 10 came out. It's my favorite piece of fiction, but it took me 2 years to read my way through it the first time and back then I didn't have a massive time hog hobby like making videos to distract me. Maybe one day, it added a surprising amount of joy to the video making process getting to play with these names. In my campaign that I'm doing with friends I have a craigheart named Karsa, once I thought of it I was amazed at how well that name fit :)

Except, I don't think I'll be doing a full re-read any time soon, since I did one last (academic) year. I got to book 8 then gave up while doing my PhD, so once I finished I re-read books 1-8 and then finished strong. Amazing what not doing a PhD can do for one's hobbies!

1:09:40 You forgot to "infuse" the room with night magic from when your character went invisible with the smoke bomb earlier! 1:16:40 I'd bet the damage modifier on that wind demon's attack card was not a typo. My guess would be that it's a big area of effect with a low chance to hit, relying on a modifier of +1 or +2 in order for it to actually do any damage. Thanks for this video, though, the format is fantastic and made it super easy to get a taste of the game's combat. I definitely want to pick this up, but first I'll be passing this link around (along with your review) to see if any of my friends would actually play!

Hey Jon, One error at the 10:30ish mark. You mention the hound will go to the closest person with the lowest (fastest) initiative. That IS true, except when the monster can do a multi-targeted attack/effect. In this case, the hound is going to Muddle all adjacent enemies. Since the hound CAN position itself to be next to both the Brute and the Scoundrel, it will position itself to maximize it's effect. Therefore, it would have moved to be next to both the Brute and the Scoundrel.

The correction stated "base" of 3, the +1 makes the total 4 in that example, however that is wrong as the base is 2, then +1 from modifier, then -1 from shield block, so 2 total. Jon had it right the first time, the correction is incorrect. It should also be stated, each ooze are ranged attackers, they would have been constantly moving away from melee at any opportunity (my understanding), otherwise in adjacent hexes they are at a disadvantage.

Another small mistake probably worth a notation, just since people are going to be using this for learning: at 48m you forgot to have the brute take his short rest at the end of the turn. You did it later at the beginning of the next turn. But officially, if you'd waited like that, you would have been forced to take a long rest, since you had no cards left in your hand. Not a big deal in a friendly co-op game :)

The card "Single Out" has 4 charges, but since you put the marker on the first charge when you played the card, without using it, you basically skipped it and used only 3 of those 4 charges. Beside that, it was such a good playthrough!

I wish all board game channels would do it like that!

So far at an hour into the playthrough I've noticed 2 mistakes: first, when the elite archer is surrounded in the first room they would have actually moved back one space and attacked the first person that went that turn that wouldn't cause the archer to have disadvantage. Second, the Impaling Eruption doesn't do 4 attacks, it does one attack and you gain experience of up to 4 based on how many targets the attack goes through...
@freddiev9932
4 жыл бұрын
Daniel Layton i feel you are incorrect on both. the elite archer didn’t draw a ‘move’ action, so it wouldn’t move. it would have to stay put and face the disadvantage. impaling eruption does do 4 attacks as that what ‘target’ means. reread the card.
@joannarichmond7166
2 жыл бұрын
Impaling Eruption does do up to 4 attacks but they have to be "on the path" to the primary target not any enemy that is 4 hexes away. You can only go through a total of 4 hexes so would not have been able to target all the oozes and the living corpse. 2 of the hexes on the path were empty so only 2 of the enemies could be hit.

The guard is one space away from BOTH the brute and your character so when determining the monsters 'focus' for its attack the tie breaker causes it to ATTACK THE CHARACTER WITH THE LOWEST INITIATIVE VALUE (which in this case is you). Again great video! I don't want to nitpick just want to put the tie-breaker rule out there for people

What an incredible video! Between playing 3 different characters and handling all of the monsters yourself, mistakes are bound to happen. The fact that you took the time to acknowledge these errors in post in order to clarify the proper way to play speaks volumes about your dedication to teaching this amazing game to others. On top of that, using multiple, smart, and clear camera shots to keep the viewer engaged throughout, as well as all the massive amount of editing that must have gone into turning all of those isolated shots into a true story arch... my god dude, by the end of this project you must have been (dare I say) exhausted. Probably the only 'game breaking' error in the whole thing was the use of Impaling Eruption, but it was clearly unintentional (honestly the way the card reads is pretty vague if you don't already know how it works) so I'm not mad about it at all. Seriously dude, this is some incredible work and you kept this positive, helpful tone throughout the whole thing. You definitely earned my subscription with this one. It almost feels selfish to say due to how much work must have gone into making this... but I would absolutely watch more randomly generated Gloomhaven dungeons Being able to see the gameplay without spoiling any of the story is the best of all worlds and made for a fantastic and very educational watch.

One mistake I noticed was taking a quick rest when you only had one card in your hand so that you could pick up your discards and have a fresh hand to play. Quick rest actually is an option you can take at the end of a normal round. If your at the point you only have a single card, making it impossible to choose your two cards, then about your only option at that point is to long rest.

Thanks for the video! Good stuff. I have a correction though - I believe the very first attack was played wrong. According to the rules for enemy movement, "If a monster can attack after its movement, it will move the least number of hexes possible in such a way as to attack its focused enemy with maximum effect. ... If it is a multi-target attack, it will move to a position where its attack will hit its focused enemy and as many other enemies as possible." Since it's the same number of spaces, the hound should have moved adjacent to the top two heroes and hit them both. In this case it would have resulted in the second hound ending up where the first hound originally went, so the net result might be the same. But that might not always be the case, so it's important to get it right :)

I too am in the middle of a reread. Well near the start I suppose, only halfway through Deadhouse Gates at the moment. I've named all my Gloomhaven figures after Malazan characters, my first one was "Karsa" the cragheart. The shattered chest seemed close enough to work, as well as the whole "super strong, beats people up with heavy objects" thing.

Unfortunately that's not going to happen, this channel is about covering a wide variety of games instead of showing a deeper into specific ones with multiple playthroughs.

The normal guard would have gone for the Scoundrel too in the second turn, Brute and Scoundrel are both 1 step away, but the Scoundrel had better initiative, if I am not mistaken.

At 1:40:37 you put a note up that the elite ooze's base damage is 3, not 2, but that doesn't seem right. It's range is 3.

This was a great video - you were very concise in your playthrough, skipped pretty much any down time, and didn't spend time "thinking" about each action. This was absolutely fantastic, and I had no trouble sitting through the entire video. I did become concerned however towards the end, as I have to wonder if some of the relatively-minor mistakes that were made with the rules might have resulted in the loss of 1 or 2 turns towards the end, which would have ended the game sooner and perhaps caused the characters to lose. In addition, the mistake where the gold from the treasure chest was doubled by mistake causes an unrealistic (and you could say "unfair") advantage for that character. Mind you, I'm not complaining at the mistakes that were made, but I'm worried that making mistakes on our own as we play could result in an unbalanced game. And since Gloomhaven evolves, that's an unbalance that you might never be able to fix. Thoughts?

My thoughts are that it's highly likely that every single play of Gloomhaven ends up having something incorrect happening, but that after 20+ scenarios this really hasnt' been a problem for us. Tiny rules blips here and there tend to either help or hurt the player randomly and it all comes together with an experience that has felt much smoother than you may expect considering the rules overhead. You won't have tiny mistakes compound on each other from session to session, so if it ends up meaning that perhaps you make the game abit harder or easier on yourself (due to a rule that you consistently get wrong) in the end from what I can tell it turns into a great gaming experience either way.

At 29:17, shouldn't guard #4 have attacked the scoundrel because of initiative?
@d.u.5933

no, the trap is in front of the spellweaver, not in front of the scoundrel. So Vandersteen is right, the guard #4 should have attacked the scoundrel (on the upper right site).

Great video, love the text info as well. One clarification, you can only keep your xp & gold gained in the scenario if you complete it with at least one character not exhausted. You dont keep everything if you fail and the entire party is exhausted.

Pg 33 says success or failure, you keep what you earned. You just don't get the extra xp for completing it. At least that's the way I read it.

Nice Video and really nice effort with all the captions. I think it isn't reallly important after 5 years but i caught a little error at 1:22:35 - the summon is an ally of yours and you could have get 2 more damage :) Edit: and at 1:32:55 the second step of the ooze wouldnt have happened because it would Not get closer to you
