I bought random cool looking dice from a thrift shop years ago and now I finally know where they came form.

I can't count the number of times I wake up to a phone call about a Viking invasion.

Normally you throw the game box into the sea AFTER a review, which handily serves as a final score.

After 10 days of delivery time, and two weeks of trying to find a day in which me and my friends could play this, yesterday night i finally got to try this game. And i have to thank you Quinns, like a lot, because this is the first war game i play and i had a total blast with it! I sincerely hope that Academy Games will give us some other episodes of the birth of Europe saga if this is the quality level! Anyway this is not the first game i buy thanks to SU&SD (Secrets, Cosmic Encounter, Azul, Magic Maze, Fugitive, Concordia, Pandemic Legacy S1 and probably a couple other things) but i dont usualy comment onto any videos, but while i was writing down my bgg review of 878 thee, oh prancing Quinns, popped to my mind and i had to thank you not just there but here. I started following you since your Root review and never let go after it, you guys make me fall into this hobby even more and i found the humor perfectly suiting mine (had to use the "how many vikings?!" while playing and it delivered). Thanks, once again, and sorry for this very big comment, Ciao from Italy :D

*Listening to the Church Module recap.* Sounds like what happened in the actual time period. One Viking Jarl wanted to take cities. Another wanted to rob churches. English hated both happening and kicked the Vikings out with renewed vigor.

Favorite review by far! “What!? How many Vikings!?”😂😂

That one prancing scene where you used the soundtrack from the King of Dragon Pass made me all glad and warm inside

That was some excellent prancing. XD

Just recently discovered your videos, and boy does it almost pain me (aka my wallet) to see how many incredible games there are out there that I would just love to play. Always looking for great friends to play with and for great games to play! So thank you for doing something that not only is very useful to consumers, but also incredibly entertaining to watch. Keep it up mate! From the shores of NJ!

'Rolling in like a katamari of axes' is an amazing simile dude!

Love the way you edit your videos. Well done guys

The best review of this game I have seen. Many thanks! It is definitely coming into my collection. And I appreciate the notes on the expansion (and expansions in general).

Ah finally a new review with the old flair, I thought you guys were dropping the ball on the reviews but good to see you get back in shape. Good job!

Thanks for the informative videos. You have given me many great ideas and suggestions for birthday presents for my sons over the last couple of years

Didn't mention the boat ships expansion, I thought that one seemed neat and unintrusive. Basically when a viking lands you drop a ship token, ship tokens allow Vikings to jump between them like portals, English can attack the ships to cut off supply routes, and I believe another win condition if they wipe them all out.

In one of their other videos, they have an elevator music rendition of music from Super Mario Land.

You have to love the "prancing retreat". I couldn't help but think of the Ministry of Silly Walks.

When you said the expansion was modules I didn't think it'd be that bad, it made me think of Merchants and Marauders. Alas, it seems they tried to take it too far with the whole KS tomfoolery.

Thanks. Now I want a King of Dragon’s Pass board game.

First instinct seeing this is that you could introduce a really interesting Picts/Scots expansion. The board almost looks like it's been made with that in mind

4:34 using the soundtrack from King of Dragon Pass I see. I can recognize that ost in my sleep.

Heads up. Some sweet mirrorlegs action at 7:56 and onwards.

I had trouble, at first, figuring out why the other person was on screen due to the perceived different clothing. Then I realized jean shorts are apparently still a thing.

I watched your play through with the CA guys. It looked pretty fun.

Now if I play this game I will constantly be imagining Vikings prancing around in flip-flops.

Hilarious review!! Thank you for helping me decide to buy this game. You guys are the best!

War of 1812 is still one of my favourite games of all times. Quite possibly one of my top 5 games I own. Really looking forward to getting my copy of 878 Vikings now!

Great presentation; convinced me and purchased a copy this weekend.

I've owned 1812 for years , but I haven't yet managed to get it to the table except once where I played a two player game with my mom and we quit part way through for unrelated reasons. It sits on my shelf, waiting for the day that I think four of my friends will actually commit a couple hours to it.

Love this channel. Thanks for the review

Every time you guys break expensive boardgames or expansions my soul dies a little more

Quinn’s box abuse goes to a new level in this vid

Just got the base game today, largely thanks to your video!

i love the use of king of dragon pass music btw

Thanks for review...can you tell, what the diameter of minitures bases is? that would be very helpful for me for my decision to buy it or not....thanks..

You had to have known the expac was gonna be bad when you saw the whole box floating around in the ocean. No way he'd do that to the box of a game he loved lol

Gotta love those Kings of Dragon Pass tracks!

Which one do you recommend to buy out of the 4 in this series ?

Ah I thought it was Brighton when you ran down that street. :) New pad? Good video looks fun :)

Well...thanks for scaring my mice, CANADA!

Prancing with King of Dragon pass theme. Nice touch.

I really want to play this one. After I've dealt with the latest Viking invasion of course!

The moment you made the noise at someone asking what module to use, the video stuttered. That made said noise WAY more hilarious.

That King of Dragon Pass music

Game looks great, but I can't seem to find it anywhere. Is it out of production?

Hey, wouldn't you like the Epic Battles module?

I love your review - but you woke up my dog who is now groggily judging me.

The game has been on my radar for a while now. I may have to invest in this one.

Is it worth getting 2nd edition? Is it the same as 1st or differant features?

I watched this before the pandemic, and during the pandemic I played king of dragon pass. So now on the rewatch, GAHHHH KING OF DRAGON PASS SOUNDTRACK. Also I own 878 now, and am desperately trying to get my friends to play it :(

Always upvote the KODP soundtrack.

Wow! My little home town is on the board of this game!

King of the Dragon Pass music FTW!

Just watched this January 4th, 2020! And this is the game with which I'm going to begin a new year of gaming mayhem!

I'm now imagining Vikings doing the conga with their 2 axes.

king of dragon pass music 🎵🎵 love it

I'm just here for the King of Dragon's Pass soundtrack.

Funny, when you said, "ass backwards", my first thought was the difference between the English and American definitions of the word, "fanny". LoL

You'd think KZread, with all its heuristics and algorithms, would know to snip the "please subscribe" portion of the video for those of us who have already subscribed.

I've loved 1775 for years for these exact reasons: The gameplay is fast. You can utilize high strategy with troop movement. Random turn order could be a benefit or a detriment, which gives randomness that doesn't detract from the strategy you so perfectly planned. And finally, the different armies have different dice, meaning it's not just simple Risk throws of win or lose, but you can actually feel victorious when you 'lose' a dice roll. Bringing in Vikings to this game is a solid win in my book.

not available on amazon now

Rexona that shit laughed me up so hard this is why i watch your videos

New digs are looking good.

Hilarious review, the theme in this game is very enticing. A great game but even an even greater review of the game. This game has won numerous awards: 2017 Golden Geek Best Wargame Winner 2017 Golden Geek Best Wargame Nominee 2017 Golden Geek Best 2-Player Board Game Nominee I'll be playing this one next, largely due to this amazingly entertaining review I've come to expect from you.

878 Vikings original or 878 Vikings 2nd edition? Is there any differences?

Looks good. There's a lot of "stuff" in the backdrops now with that whole wall of mirror? Your disjointed legs or just seeing the back of you moving around on the other side of the frame is a bit distracting.

This sounds like a great and interesting game (without the expansion). Thanks for your great review!

Looks like a great game. Wish it was still available

Did I just hear King of Dragon Pass?

R.I.P blue guy 5:34

I LOVE YOU GUYS

HI!! can you do a Mansions of Madness Review?

I actually like three or four. With three, we did two as the Brits and the Vikings together. We found if the Berserkers didn't go first in a turn, then they didn't have a lot to do. Remember that if there is a battle with a Berserker, the first one has to be red (berserker). Also, with no flees, the reds don't get many pieces. Finally, we only play with the churches and forts expansion. That one seems to be necessary. Overall we really like this game. Good review.
