Brilliant, brilliant video! Great job laying out all of the game components. Great job editing this video and narrating the experience. Great job explaining the rules/mechanics as they arose. LOVE that you only used the dice (I am the same way) Remember - You don't HAVE TO roll extra dice on crits if you don't want to. They are optional. AND when you play your ZERO cooldown card, those cards immediately come back into your hand. You don't have to wait for the round to end in order to pick those up.

The zero cool down card never has to leave your hand?!
@OneStopCoopShop

@@Chappykinz no, you still play it into the 0 cooldown space, and it remains unavailable until you get it back at the start of the next turn. But what was being clarified here is that when you play any card to the 0 space, it flows any cards already in the 0 space straight back to your hand. So basically you can get cards back faster if you don't want to wait until next turn with that trick.

60-90 minutes, I would say. And if you do the full story mode between battles, and not the summarized quick version, that's been running us 20-40 minutes. So it's maybe 90-120 minutes today for each scenario (out of 21 in the game).

Great video, I really appreciate getting to see a nice, clear walkthrough of an encounter, since the KS campaign page doesn't do a great job of that. One small nitpick. You probably were t even aware of it, but right at the start you say the terrain and minis would "just" be tokens and standees in the base pledge, and I think it unconsciously reinforces this idea that big chunks of unpainted plastic are automatically better than more environmentally friendly cardboard tokens. I'm so happy that Oathsworn has a standees option. It's the only reason I'm backing, because as cool as the game looks, I don't need more plastic. It takes up less space not just on my shelf, but also on the fossil fuel spewing container ship. And because the standee box weighs less, it combats the obscene shipping charges. They're not "just" standees and tokens, they're standees and tokens! Cheers! 😁

@@OneStopCoopShop Awesome, I'm sorry I didn't know that already! I hope you know I wasn't calling you out specifically :) I used to like minis, but lately I'm becoming really aware of all the troubling angles to the plastic obsession in this hobby. I'm super excited about the standees in Oathsworn and League of Dungeoneers, for example, and hope to see more campaigns go that route in the future. I mean, honestly, how many people even paint all their minis? To anyone who doesn't paint, wouldn't you rather look at killer art on standees instead of a table full of gray hunks of unprimed plastic? 🗿😄

Thanks a lot for sharing this. I'm excited about receiving my copy. (hopefully it will ship soon) Awesome play through. Question: At 29:25 - after the enemy moved should it have faced NW, because it moved in that direction? Or, maybe not, since it 'bounced' off the side of the map? :-) It looks like you turned it at some point. Great job!

I was a bit unclear on that. The rules say it faces its target, or the last space of movement, so when it bounces off the outer spaces I think it faces the direction of the bounce

Not sure if I missed it but when playing the broken arm injury did you pay 1 animus (cost of the card)....makes it more annoying, especially with multiple injuries that cost. Also the 4th dice to get knocked off cancels the current stage 2 card that is waiting and you get a blind draw stage 3. I cuold be wrong but you kept the stage 2 and resolved? Last the cripple (immobilize) token lasts until the end of the NEXT oathsworn phase, so if you get it as part of a reaction it'll stay for the rest of that round plus the next oathsworn.
