Looking forward to this series! I have the game and expansions but have been too intimidated to learn it yet.

Well, I've just got a Part 2 coming to demonstrate the basics of battle. But hopefully it will be enough to get you to bust it out! Just start with the base game, for sure. SO much there alone to keep you occupied for awhile. :)

It really isn't that bad... as "big" board games go, it's surprisingly intuitive. A pair of games and rule book reads under your belt and you'll be good to go. I haven't had to check BGG forums once yet, which is a good sign.

Thanks for this video. I didn't even know they had an app to run the Aliens! Normally, I don't like apps in games, but this might be an exception.

I love this game. I only have the base box and I don't play it nearly enough. Thanks for playing some for me :)

Do you recommend printing these sheets or use blank paper instead? Very useful video but I hope I will be able to play without the app

Before I found the app, I was burning pretty quick through the sheets. I still have quite a few left, but only cuz the app saved the day.

So many moves in one turn, I wonder how to make sure there are no errors (double moves)

Yeah I wonder too. Later on in the game, when you have old 20 ships, how do track to make sure you moved everyone, and on top of that, move everyone only once

I usually just rotate my counters 30 degrees after moving. Easy to see who's moved that way. Then straighten at turns end.

@@crushingit5128 The typical wargaming method is to just rotate moved/activated units 45 degrees. In counter heavy games it can become a pain though, so i end up using wooden cubes as markers for which units i've already activated.

(16:55) Can a Colony Ship colonize a Planet at any time, or only during it's own Movement turn? EXPLORATION is at the end of movement, and in this case is the end of the 3 movement turns, so it is now the EP, so the CO couldn't colonize this turn.

4.4.1 Initiating Colonization Place the Colony Ship (ship side up) on the Planet marker. You may do this in the same turn that the Colony Ship moves into the hex, or after a successful attack in that hex. Once you announce colonization in this way, the Colony Ship may no longer move. It has begun the process of forming a Colony and has dismantled itself for the raw material needed to start the process. From this point on, it is considered a Colony. Colonization takes time and the colony will grow in future Economic Phases (see 7.7).
