STAR WARS: THE DECKBUILDING GAME - Board Game Review
STAR WARS: THE DECKBUILDING GAME Board Game Review, Designed by Caleb Grace, published by Fantasy Flight Games and sent to us by Asomde Canada. Intro 00:00:00 Overview 00:00:20 Review 00:06:45 Rating 00:10:55 ************************************************** "The Rebel Alliance fights valiantly against the tyranny of the Galactic Empire. Each new victory brings the Rebels hope, and each heroic sacrifice strengthens their resolve. Still, the Empire's resources are vast, and the firepower of its Empire Navy is unmatched. With neither side willing to accept defeat, their war rages across the galaxy... In Star Wars: The Deckbuilding Game, a head-to-head game for two players, the galaxy-spanning war between the Galactic Empire and the Rebel Alliance comes alive on your tabletop. In this easy-to-learn game, you and your opponent each choose a side, playing as either the Empire or the Rebels, and as the game progresses you both strengthen the power of your starting decks and work to destroy each other's bases. The first player to destroy three of their opponent's bases wins. In more detail, each player starts with a unique ten-card deck, with seven of those cards providing only resources to acquire new cards. Six cards from a galaxy deck are always on display, with Rebel cards facing the Rebel player, Empire cards the Empire player, and neutral cards turned sideways. You can spend resources to acquire cards in the galaxy row that don't belong to the opponent, and you can use attack power to take out cards that do belong to them, gaining a reward in the process. Each player starts with a base that lacks abilities (Dantooine for the Rebels and Lothal for the Empire), but when that base is destroyed, you get to choose a replacement from your base deck, with each base having a special ability. Choose wisely to counter your opponent's plans! In addition to having special abilities, capital ships absorb damage meant for your base. Players also fight for control of a Force track to gain additional resources or make use of "If the Force is with you..." abilities on their cards." —description from the publisher Music provided by Lofi Girl - Listen: bit.ly/lofigirI-playlists ************************************************** Subscribe for new videos ❤️ and hit the notification bell 🔔 for updates https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCS3nQCBdRehEuMDZA9ztAWg?sub_confirmation=1 Shop https://www.thenerdshelves.com/shop All proceeds go to The BC Children's Hospital website http://www.thenerdshelves.com Discord https://discord.gg/NRqEES5cbn Facebook Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/164157464310404/ Instagram https://www.instagram.com/the_nerd_shelves/Twitter https://twitter.com/Thenerdshelves email thenerdshelves@gmail.com

Intro 00:00:00 Overview 00:00:54 Deluxe Components 00:08:57 Wrap Up 00:09:49 ************************************************** "After an arduous journey through the otherworldly land of Valanyr, your caravan finally arrives at Camp Trinity — a young, thriving settlement built atop a ruined kingdom once decimated by an ancient cataclysm. Like many here, you were previously a mage of low renown now seeking a better fortune. The cataclysm altered Valanyr's Elan to be fertile but mercurial, rendering the rules of spellcasting different from whence you came. Here, the usually separate elements of nature fuse readily, allowing for new and unknown spells to be created. You'll have to start from scratch, but unknown means new discoveries to be made, and a thriving settlement means opportunity... Mercurial is a card & dice-manipulation game themed on spellcrafting with combo & engine-building mechanics. Learn magical Alteration techniques to control the chaos of your elemental dice, and use these elements to combine lesser magicks into new and unknown spells. Your combined spells can either inflict ruin, restore life, or something more — use them to perform heroic deeds, ranging from helping your allies defeat dangerous beasts, to finding a path for stranded travelers lost in the strange land of Valanyr. In Mercurial, each player has varying capabilities and starting resources, with their differences offering a unique path to power with every journey. Delve into the fantastic world of Mercurial, and discover a new age of spellcrafting." —description from the designer ************************************************** Subscribe for new videos ❤️ and hit the notification bell 🔔 for updates https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCS3nQCBdRehEuMDZA9ztAWg?sub_confirmation=1 Shop https://www.thenerdshelves.com/shop All proceeds go to The BC Children's Hospital website http://www.thenerdshelves.com Discord https://discord.gg/NRqEES5cbn Facebook Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/164157464310404/ Instagram https://www.instagram.com/the_nerd_shelves/Twitter https://twitter.com/Thenerdshelves email thenerdshelves@gmail.com

THE VOYAGES OF MARCO POLO - Board Game Review
Come join us for another boardgame review, THE VOYAGES OF MARCO POLO - Board Game Review! Intro 00:00:00 Overview 00:00:57 Michael's Thoughts 00:05:54 Judie's Thoughts 00:08:39 Wrap Up 00:11:39 ************************************************** "In 1271, 17-year-old Marco Polo started on a journey to China with his father and older brother. After a long and grueling journey that led through Jerusalem and Mesopotamia and over the "Silk Road", they reached the court of Kublai Khan in 1275. In The Voyages of Marco Polo, players recreate this journey, with each player having a different character from history with a special power in the game. The game is played over five rounds. Each round, the players roll their five personal dice and can perform one action each turn with them. Each action requires the use of one or more dice, and can be collecting resources or money, acquiring contracts or traveling on the board. When traveling, each player begins at Venice and can decide between several routes eastward, all the way to Beijing. When a player stops at a city, they place a trading post there, giving them access to extra actions or resources for the rest of the game. The higher the value of the dice used for an action, the better the options that may be chosen, but also the more money the player must pay if an opponent has already chosen the same action. After five rounds, the game ends with players receiving extra victory points for having trading posts in Beijing, fulfilling the most orders, and having trading posts in the cities on secret city cards that each player gets at the start of the game. This game should not be confused with Marco Polo Expedition, which has the same German title."

In "The 7 Kaiju Balls", retrieve Fauxzilla's Eggs through time to seal them in their proper era, while dodging the monster's fury. You can now count on two new characters: Faux Klein Schlag, a young version of Dr. Faux himself, determined to regain the upper hand over his evil future self. And the Peak Twins, the most feared pair of enforcers in the Middle Ages. New Artifacts and 2 additional Sabotage tiles will take your Loop experience to the next level! Requires the base game to play." — Description from the publisher. ***************************************************** Subscribe for new videos ❤️ and hit the notification bell 🔔 for updates https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCS3nQCBdRehEuMDZA9ztAWg?sub_confirmation=1 Become a member and help support the channel https://www.buymeacoffee.com/Thenerdshelves Shop https://www.thenerdshelves.com/shop All proceeds go to The BC Children's Hospital Discord https://discord.gg/NRqEES5cbn Website http://www.thenerdshelves.com Facebook Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/164157464310404/ Instagram https://www.instagram.com/the_nerd_shelves/ Twitter https://twitter.com/Thenerdshelves email thenerdshelves@gmail.com

TAPESTRY Board Game Playmat
"This natural rubber playmat for Tapestry has double-stitched edges for durability. It is double-sided (two different player-count ranges) and includes spaces for landmark miniatures and cards. It measures 770x645mm. It is compatible with all expansions and the core game. Why switch to a natural rubber playmat? Some players prefer this neoprene-like material because it's easier to remove cards from them." -Discription from the publisher Stonemaier Games ************************************************** Subscribe for new videos ❤️ and hit the notification bell 🔔 for updates https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCS3nQCBdRehEuMDZA9ztAWg?sub_confirmation=1 Shop https://www.thenerdshelves.com/shop All proceeds go to The BC Children's Hospital website http://www.thenerdshelves.com Discord https://discord.gg/JhNgQ3knrN Facebook Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/164157464310404/ Instagram https://www.instagram.com/the_nerd_shelves/ Twitter https://twitter.com/Thenerdshelves email thenerdshelves@gmail.com

BLACKBEARD'S LOST FLEET - Boardgame Review
BLACKBEARD’S LOST FLEET - Board Game Review, designed by Andrzej Kozakowski, and Mirek Talik and published by Taberna Vagantis Publishing Intro 00:00:00 Overview 00:00:12 Review 00:04:15 Kickstarter https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1059808302/blackbeards-lost-fleet ************************************************** "Blackbeard's Lost Fleet combines deck-building, worker placement and subtle area control mechanics. Players expand their card decks with more Loyal Pirates, and then send them on missions using pirate fast ships. And all this with the aim of inciting rebellion and taking over the ships of Blackbeard's lost fleet, or finding the location where his legendary treasure is hidden. Not to forget that what counts among pirates is the fame and support of the Flying Gang, which chooses who will rule Nassau. Decks of pirate companions allow players to send their men to specific places. Some cards give you the ability to get something immediately, while others give you the ability to perform an action specific to a particular pirate. Cards can be acquired for their decks, as well as discarding those that the Player deems unnecessary. In addition, most cards can be used in several ways. Taking over specific ships of Blackbeard's fleet not only gives the Player more support from his pirate brethren, but also provides constant bonuses during the game. Who wins? The one with the largest fleet, the one supported by the majority of pirates, or the one who finds Blackbeard's legendary treasure first? The game is language independent. There is only iconography on the cards and boards." —description from the publisher ********************************************** Subscribe for new videos ❤️ and hit the notification bell 🔔 for updates https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCS3nQCBdRehEuMDZA9ztAWg?sub_confirmation=1 Shop https://www.thenerdshelves.com/shop All proceeds go to The BC Children's Hospital website http://www.thenerdshelves.com Discord https://discord.gg/JhNgQ3knrN Facebook Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/164157464310404/ Instagram https://www.instagram.com/the_nerd_shelves/ Twitter https://twitter.com/Thenerdshelves email thenerdshelves@gmail.com
