I was so ready to disagree cos RS is my favourite game as well but there are only a few that I'd swap around slightly. Generally speaking I agree with you. Such a brilliant game. The best part is that each of these abilities can be really powerful in the right hands. You really need to understand how they work to counterplay as well. What a beautiful dance.

Fun list, but I feel like you fluctuated between this being the best clans as in strongest or the best for you. Either way it was a fun watch and hearing opinions regarding my favorite game is always welcome. Deciding what's strongest or weakest is pretty difficult because how useful the clans are changes greatly if it's different player counts, what cards they get, what kami are available. If its by favorite mine is probably between Koi, Dragonfly, Bonsai or Fox (I usually just pick after everyone else is done). I actually think Turtle is my least favorite, its either that or Moon. They feel very restrictive imo where I have to do very specific things if I want to do well.

Love this. Top RS is top 3 for me. 8. Dragonfly, most agree! 7. Bonsai. Agreed again! Easiest to get locked, one of the hardest to play, not the most fun ability. 6. Lotus. I don't tend to negotiate that much and can usually manage to get something out of any mandate I draw. 5. Turtle. Straightforward. Take or leave. Haven't played turtle a lot for new players ALWAYS want to play turtle (and they do it horribly HAHAHAHA). I guess 2 in 100+ games. 4. Fox. Yes, double Righteousness is insta-win. Easy to block as well, but YES, you fight every battle and I love that. I believe Lotus is better/stronger, but fox is more fun to play for me. 3. Koi, amazing clan. Super strong, super fun to play. 2. Moon. Fantastic to play with, love the handicap they have. Hard to pull-off but can rock the game. Trully shines with Kami unbound (the complete game experience). 1. Sun. Nothing to add. The best of the best. Most fun to play. I don't play it that often because my friends consider it abusive XD.

The problem with the Fox clan is not that it's too strong (wich it is, it's by far the strongest clan in the game and it's always at least in third place). The problem is that it's broken in the sense that it don't work. Your clan power basically says: Hey, do only 1 of the 5 mandates (train) and skip the rest. You don't want to recruit, because you'll do that for free later, and recruting now diminishes your hability to be on EVERY fight. Since you don't recruit, you also don't want to build strongholds, and you have nothing on board to move. You don't want to betray, because that's just a fancy recruit. And you don't want to harvest, because you having nothing on board, but you'll do it if you can't train just to deny it to the others. It's a real problem when the best way to play is not playing. PS: You might be interestesd in knowing I created 2 new clans, Bear and Monkey, for custom expansions crossover with Blood Rage and Ankh respectivally hehe

My group are all game designers and we agree with your list. But there is one flaw in your analysis: The sun clan is completely broken. When we play it, other players do not gain any VP and the sun clan ends up with insane numbers like „running around the track twice“ numbers. And there is practically nothing other players can do to stop it. We changed it ability to „on a tie gain a VP and a ronin“ (no stealing and no gold). And it still is equally strong compared to the turtle clan.

Can someone explain to me how exactly koi works when a battle occurs? If i have understood correctly, let's suppose koi & lotus have to batte in an area & koi has 5 total coins, they bet 3 koins in hire ronin & lotus bets 0 in hire ronin, koi's total force for that battle would be all the figures on that area plus the 2 coins they didn't bet, right?

It's quite funny when you say that the dragonfly clan is the clan you like the least because it's probably the easiest to play, I find it's absolutely the opposite, the goal of the power is not to fill in random beginner shots but to abuse mobility, which I find very difficult to set up. In addition, I think that the difficulty of the clan depends mainly on 2 factors, on the one hand if you play with 3 or 4 players and if you are not the clan with the least honor, because being last or second to last in turn 1 with 4 players has too much involvement in the course of the game, for example if you play in 3rd in turn 1 you will only have one action in turn 3 which seems quite terrible to me. Finally, I notice that the 2 clans with the least honor are the last two, probably in my opinion, because they end up being last in honor in turn 1 with 4 players and therefore having only one action and therefore playing in response to not being able to start the game quietly. Thanks for the video!

@RoomandBoardReviews
Жыл бұрын
That's basically the original "standard Kickstarter" pledge. It was 100 plus shipping back in the day (2017 I believe) but cmon games obviously go for more on the secondary markets if they're hits. I'd watch my video on ranking the different expansions if you want to get a sense of the content you'd be getting. 250 seems fairly standard at this point that people are trying to sell that bundle for. Considering Cthulhu Death May Die and the cmon time machine box, Cmon would probably charge a similar price at this point. It's hard for me to recommend grabbing something where I feel the retail at 100 is also potentially just as fun, but I do love the game and love the Kickstarter extra strongholds and alliance tokens, so I'd say if you think this game is going to get a lot of play, you could get it and likely sell it for the same amount

@@dcrbdh I think that's a bad recommendation. It's in Bonsai's interest to get them or their ally to choose the train mandate and then any card they want is free, making it a better power. A 2 coin discount is especially a poor power when you get into the late game, and also then overpowers the card Kami, meaning you have more coins in the early game, which you need to have the push and pull of do I get cards now or do I try for a province. Bonsai needs to work on their own engine. I would wholeheartedly not recommend that idea at all and am vehemently opposed, haha
