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

Welcome to The Loop The Revenge of Fauxzilla Board Game Review. In this board game review, we are looking at The Revenge of Fauxzilla, the expansion to The Loop.

Your favorite evil genius, Dr. Faux, returns with a terrifying giant monster, Fauxzilla! Will you let him wreck the Universe?

Horrified - Review - Final Thoughts

Here are our final thoughts of the board game HORRIFIED, by Ravensburger, after our live playthrough. If you like classic horror movies and the classic movie monsters, you'll love Horrified. HORRIFIED Live Playthrough https://youtu.be/_KUUJOD76Mc The stakes have been raised. Imagine living in a place so wretched that it's not plagued by one, two, or even three monsters — but seven of the most horrifying fiends! In this game, you'll come face to face with them all as you work together to rid the town of the maniacal or misunderstood creatures…before it's too late. Horrified includes high-quality sculpted miniatures (Frankenstein, The Bride of Frankenstein, The Wolf Man, Dracula, The Mummy, The Invisible Man, Creature from the Black Lagoon). Its innovative, easy-to-learn, cooperative gameplay has players working together against the monsters with varying levels of difficulty. Just as each monster is unique, they require different strategies and tactics to be defeated. —description from the publisher Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCS3nQCBdRehEuMDZA9ztAWg/join Subscribe for new videos ❤️ and the hit notification bell 🔔 for updates https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCS3nQCBdRehEuMDZA9ztAWg?sub_confirmation=1 Shop https://www.thenerdshelves.com/shop 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
