I agree, and she's great at teaching, too! Deborah is such a treasure!

Thank you all for a wonderful GameNight 2022! Super neat that more of you get to teach games here - though we will always be a bit partial to the unbeatable Aaron-Dave combo ;)

Editing this video must have taken days! You all make this look like a labor of love and I am so grateful for these videos!

BoardGameGeek, Your videos always make me happy, so I subscribed!

Everybody down on the poor Curator (an hour and ten minutes in, anyway), but she’s a superior Explore! She does exactly the same thing, but is also worth two points! Even without the extra card draws later, she’s totally worth it.

Artifacts are not face down or hidden, they are revealed face up as soon as the tile is placed.

When someone clanked I kept expecting someone to say “shhhhhh”. Lol. Thanks for the play through

Thoroughly enjoyed playing this last weekend (and it's pretty straightforward)....watching to see if we messed anything up! Also great to see a familiar face in the teaching role!

Was happy to catch Deborah in an episode of Quantum Leap last night, and now teaching and playing a Clank! game, too!

Yeah, I thought the same thing, cool to see her with a guest role there and then playing board games here!

1:37:40 if you have clank in your play area it means you've already played it so it's +1 clank. Trashing from your hand would mean you can get rid of it *before* playing into play area and generating clank (that's why later in the game with more complex cards, order of play is important).

Great run through, great teach Deborah and good work Nikki, Gabby and Lincoln

clank is my favourite game! so excited to see a new edition!

I have heard so many good things about this game. These play-throughs are very helpful!!!!

Love all your content, usually check out if you guys a video everytime I consider buying a game!

This and Heat: Pedal to the Metal are our game groups new favorites. Nice teach Deb!

happy to see Deborah, she makes this show so alive

What a great ending!!

Playing this this weekend!

Gabby and Deborah r back!

Love your camera angles and you’ve all got great presence for your videos!

Glad to see the extra long episode, it has been a while. :) I could listen Deborah teaching the beige-est of euro games.

Wow Debra is teaching games now! Amazing, glad to see her coming full circle from novice to teacher. 👏🏻

Deborah 😁 and I'm very excited to see Clank Catacombs!

I just got here and I’m definitely gonna stay for longer ❤

Yeah! Looks like a Clank! game I'm going to want. It's kinda like Catan where you can randomize the board for some varied play. Although I probably would have liked game tiles as a side expansion. Great job explaining the game and actually made me realize I might have messed up some rules on the OG game.

Funny that your mind goes to "I'll stumble for ya", and mine goes to "Stumble you might fall" from Stereo MC's "Connected" 😂

Okay, Dire Wolf, let's maybe mix it up. How about a retheme on this set in a haunted house? Maybe take the individual tiles mechanic seen in 'Catacombs' so you can set it up sort of like "Betrayal at House on the Hill" (or just a boards broken up into different floors). You can call it "Creak" for when the old floors creak under your feet, alerting a ghost/poltergeist/demon! I would buy that game right now! In the meantime I think I'll go out a get a copy of 'Catacombs'.

Creak! What a cool idea 👍 a haunted house themed version of this sounds really good.

Everyone was so mean to the curator. At worst, she's an explore that's worth points. And when you're trying to escape, she can get you an extra action.

Love watching you all play any Clank! game. Any chance of returning to Clank Legacy?

Was VERY surprised when you found the dragon error, that the immediate ret-con wasn't: we did all the others wrong, so we'll do this one wrong and NOT pull the extra! (Then do them right going forward.) Or even farther I would have pushed to reduce the damage by all the other attacks we thought we had added extras too, which was 2, maybe 3? But meh...;-) I thought Deborah SHOULD have gone a new route instead of following Lincoln through the caves, but she lucked out to get as far as she did in the one turn.

Wow, was a great episode!

I love clank catacombs. It has so much replay value and I can’t wait for some expansions. I just think there’s wayyyy to many crystal caves. I would get so many boots and could use one or two and have to stop.

Love Clank, even if I die I still count points haha, it's an experience game :)

deb surely is great on each episode, watching the episode by chunks, good job fellas

I hope you guys will give this game another play!

Love a good Dresden files reference!

I'm still waiting for my copy to arrive (the Netherlands) so this game night was a nice surprise.

Hey Deborah!... Nice to see you again. 😀

Happy New Year, gang!

I still love the static boards from regular Clank! and will continue to play them, but Catacombs is my favorite way to play because of the exploring/variable board each game. Yay for Deborah teaching! Payoff is an awesome card when it comes up in initial row like that. Edit: Looks like you forgot to put the starting Clank cubes in at the beginning. :)

@UnknownDane

Жыл бұрын

Payoff is indeed an amazing card to kickstart into stronger cards, it is especially strong since it seems like they repeatedly forget they have to trash it upon play.. I'd recommend to always separate the cards you play so you don't obscure the card effects.

I traded this one. I like deck building when it's strategically directed. Clank in space was more interesting and fun for me but I can see people liking this.

Enjoyed the play through. Trying out Clank Catcombs tonight for the first time, will see if the family and I prefer it to Clank in Space. Thinking there is room for both.

When Niki got knocked out, from that point on the number of cubes pulled each time should have been 5, not 4. Also at 2:49:02, Deborah shouldn't haven't added any clank for defeating the skeleton as she had the Rose Quartz card that is -2 clank.

Do you have to declare which path you are taking before you chose the tile or can you chose the tile first and then decide which way you're going?

@artboymoy

Жыл бұрын

I don't think so. you have to place the tile down before you move down a path but you probably do have to indicate that you are moving into a new area and have to stick with that decision.

I really like the tiles...it really adds an element of replay compared to the static Clank board. I never really though of base Clank as a Dominion-like game, I mean, there's deck building, but the board kind of takes me out of that traditional standard deck-building type of game. THIS version, because you spend so much time and energy getting cards and the board is slowly growing as you play, it feels much more like Dominion...or Dominion with a Dungeon Crawl mechanism. This is the first Clank game I might actually consider getting (I like the tile-board that much).

@Jindorek

Жыл бұрын

Personally I was hoping the board would be more like Clank in Space, providing variety without the randomness of tiles added to the randomness of cards. Of all the Clanks so far Clank Legacy is my ultimate favourite and I'm sorely tempted to buy another copy for a new group of friends to enjoy.

Is it fine to keep walking after a teleport in catacombs? Cause in Clank in space you feel dizzy afterwards and cannot use anymore boots. Thanks for the feedback in advance 😁 Cheers, Benjamin

A little surprised to look over and see after about 1 hour (30 minutes of play) there are only 4 tiles in play on the table! I haven't been following, but that seems slower than I expected ;) Still not sure if I would eventually buy this or original Clank.

I would love a chance to play Deborah. She's obviously a very intelligent and strategic player, and I'm getting bored kicking ass every time I play (I rarely score below a hundred) 😂 Too bad she screwed up the rules....Gaby had a good money engine going, which could have made a difference if the game was played right.

Did the gang ever go back to Clank! Legacy? They seemed to be considering continuing the campaign, but then only got to play the first game before the pandemic hit. 😕

Were you playing with a house rule or variant that increased the number of cubes drawn based the number of dragon symbols in the dungeon row? Normally you only draw cubes based on the dragon rage track. There are cards that increase the number drawn but it is a separate ability of the card that is not tied to the dragon symbols.

I too saw that there was no clank! placed at the start of the game. Others stuff I saw: When you trash a card that is in your play area or discard that does not include your hand. You must first play the card, stumble, then you can trash it. You cannot leave the crystal caves with boots unless you have a card that says so. You may, however, teleport out of the crystal cave. When the tile that contains an artifact is revealed, you place the artifact face up so everyone knows what it is. The artifacts are in order from lowest to highest anyway. There are tiles that have artifact and plus symbol (or two) and then you place an artifact one or two higher in value.

where can i get this token holder?

1:15:44 heal 1HP :)

1:39:00 is it legal that she took an artefact after it has already been looted?

I can’t help but wonder if the “mistake” on the dragon icons/increased dragon attack strength was surreptitiously intentional. I mean, the game/video length would have been a fair bit longer… plus, they are usually pretty good with rules, especially ones that are foundational to the game. This one seems to be an outlier, because there were several other mistakes made: didn’t add the clank at the start, Deborah should not have been able, as artifacts only are placed on the board when the tile is revealed, not if you move into a space where a previously claimed artifact was… Regardless, I always love your content. I picked this game up in December at PAX unplugged and love it.

Can you really get another artifact in a room that has already been looted ??

Shouldnt you place two minor secrets on the board when the tile comes out? Or was this changed in this game. Ie. Lincoln shouldn't have gotten a minor secret. In regular clank you populate the board with two minor secrets and one major secret on those spots.

How did I not know Deborah was a board gamer??

Hey, I got the 666th like! Must mean something. \m/ \m/

Like Deborah said, the random tiles add some variability but for tactical purposes it's less interesting. I don't know what to think about deckbuilding games with points on the cards... You keep buying cards but you barely see some cards throughout the game because your deck becomes huge, mixed feelings about that!

I think the game got slowed down because they overdrew cubes most of the game, people getting hurt faster and this having to play more protective. But I agree, this shouldnt be a 2,5 hour game even when you take extra time into account because of doing it for a video. There seems to be quite a bit of downtime, and you can't even play out your next turn because the market can change, and often you end up drawing cards during your turn.

I wish they would of gone through the draw pile to see if 80% of those left had movement, otherwise its a very slow progression.
