Thanks to both of you for these videos. I love the content y'all provide. I agree with y'all on the secret objectives. I would love to see multiple scoring opportunities on one card to flesh out the theme and role you ultimately end up playing. For example, Anthony's objectives could be centered around being a "hero;" three points for killing the queen, two points for signaling, and one point for assisting another player with a alien kill. Maybe the final objective could even be repeatable throughout the game. I think that would not only provide more interesting choices on how you strategically approach each game, but it would also give you a stronger thematic connection to your character. Obviously this added complexity would require more testing for balance, but I think it would up the enjoyment quite a bit. Anyhoo, thanks again for the content!

1 thing the vents or "technical corridor" has it's own space where there can be only 1 noise token at a time. If you roll a vent as a noise result you put the token on that space and the next vent result (regardless of room) spawns the intruder in that room. If you spawn an intruder in a room with a vent acces (there are noise results for the vent) than the technical corridor noise is removed like all other corridor noise tokens around the room. Makes sense and just a thing i noticed. But the rest seemed fine having the same problems with the PnP rules clarity wise, but you mentioned this also. Very good video you guys!

It would be interesting if there were micro-objectives as you discuss in the conclusion, whether public or not, that could be combined with a micro-deck-building mechanism. Like, if each character came with a few "improved" cards that you could earn by doing the micro-objectives, swapping them in for one of your starting cards. Would also create an interesting strategic choice: delay your macro objective to try to improve your future turn efficiency, or just focus on the victory conditions.

They added something to the game but not the thing you mentioned but it sounds pretty interesting. You'll now get two secret objectives from 2 different decks. So you'll have two things you are trying to achieve. However, when the first encounter with an alien happens (to any player) then everyone has to discard one objective. It gives you some freedom at the beginning but then you need to narrow your game down. I like the idea in theory so that might interest you as well.

a nice idea with the additional objectives. Maby they coulld do the motivitation instead of objective. Your motiviation is money: - You have to find a Egg and researche it - bring another egg with you to the drop pod - Make sure the ship travel to Mars your motivitation is to save the earth: - make sure that all the researches are done (you don't have to do it on your own) - kill at least 5 Intruders - send a warnsignal - make sure the ship travel to any other planet than earth or distroy the ship. your motivitation is to bring every one back alive: - Bring the dead Crew member to a Drop pod and make a space funeral. (make sure that no one make a research with the Dead Crew member) - Find the Emergency Room. if there is no Emercency Room make a temporality Emercency Room (to do that bring 3 Med Supplyes to the Hybernation Room) - Heal one other Player ( I don't know if that is possible) there are a lot of possibilitys for a Motivitation

Best play through of Nemesis. Couple of game improvements - shower room search probably includes the locker area where clothes are hanging but would anyone leave their weapon lying around? I think tool cards only might be more thematic. How about 'dental floss' that could be used with grenades so when combined it creates a tripwire explosive.

You are so likeable, I really enjoyed this video! Both thumbs up for you both :) And a sub to your channel for sure ;) I backed this game a few days before and I really appreciate your play through and your thoughts in the end, wich gave me a deeper look into the system and the mechanics. btw I have never watched a hole play through to the end, longer then 1 h. This was the 1. one with such a long play time, because you both are so kind :) Now I´m so excited about this game, can´t wait to get it :D I´m even thinking about to order it in English instead of German, just because I don´t want to wait 3 month more to get the translated German Version^^ But I have something to note to your thoughts in the end of the video and your idea of additional minor objektives: Although I think this is a good idea, maybe it would not be necessary, or not working, if you play the game with more than 2 players. Because, if you have 3 or 4 players, you not only have to figure out how to achieve your own objektive, but you have to do a lot more to handle the other players and their sabotage and to have an eye on them. So maybe achieving more (minor) objektives would be to much to handle or would not be necessary, because achieving your own objektive AND handle the other players and their sabotage would be hard enough with 4 players. Maybe you have to undo their sabotage (maybe even more than once ?), wich cost a lot more "time" and attention, so the main objektive would be enough to do. And you would have to handle more Aliens with more players too :) I think this game really shines with 4 players. But additional minor objektives are still a good idea! It just depends on how it will be implemented and how it works with more players. But anyway, I think you really do a great job! And you have one more Fan and Supporter from now on, and I´m exited to see more of you and your channel :) So, stay gold pony boy and girl ;) Best wishes and greetings from Germany! Marcus
