There are a couple of rules that were broken which is fine since this is clearly their first time playing. I'll list them so others know it when it comes up for a smoother game. 1. They had people level up the moment they got their first xp. Actually the peg needs to reach the end of the board for it to count as a level up. You're first xp's don't count as an automatic level up. 2. A player must meet a specific requirement in order for them to acquire certain companions. Example, they showed Cait in the game. In the top right corner of the card it showed a pitboy with horns. Meaning that in order for you to acquire Cait you need to be vilified. Currie was the same but had a different requirement. In the top right it showed I. That means you needed the intelligence token to be on your board to acquire her. 3. When you are shopping and you wish to sell an item the number on the top right of the card shows its value. However, when selling it you subtract 1 cap from that value. Example, Ivan sold day tripper which has a value of 3 caps. However, since he's selling it he'd only get back 2 caps. 4. Encounter is the only action that you are not allowed to take twice. You can only encounter once per turn. 5. If there are multiple players at exactly the same distance from an enemy while it's moving that enemy is to move to the person with the lowest HP. If more than one of those players has the same amount of HP then out of those players the one who went the earliest is targeted. So that ghoul would have actually gone after the group instead of Becca because Ivan has the lowest HP. 6. When fighting an enemy we know that each of the stars represents a hit. However, there's more to it. Each star that appears on the die is actually equal to the enemies level. Example, Becca fought a Mr. Gutsy at 1:05:00. The Mr. Gutsy is a level two. When Becca rolled she took 4 hits. Mean that each on of those four hits is worth 2 damage points. So she actually took 8 points of damage from that fight. 7. When a tile is revealed after exploring and there's an enemy marker on it. The enemy token is actually placed face up rather than face down. Enemy tokens are only placed face down when putting an enemy token after the previous enemy has been killed and replaced.

Quick note for anyone learning the game who stumbles across this: Leveling occurs once the XP marker reaches the right-most SPECIAL token you have. Meaning if you only have SP, leveling is pretty quick, while having a luck token maxes out the time to level up. And just a last thing, the XP tracker doesn't start in the first hole, but rather next to the board to represent having 0 XP

I would love to see a good group like this replay it with the Atomic Bonds expansion. I have watched this episode a few times now, and I just need to play the game again. I partially use this episode (and the rules intro) to refresh my memory on how to play.
Big rules mistake. Enemies on explored tiles are placed face-up.

Fallout was going to be based on GURPS until they fell out... and they went SPECIAL
I appreciate the way in which they tried to manage the complexity of the game, and incorporation of the fluff on every step. Distilling something as complicated as a Fallout game down to a board game that plays this well is pretty impressive. Also This is definitely one there better board game videos.

Error at 13:40 : the enemy must be "faceup" when the map tile is returned faceup. Error at 46:05 : the enemy dont have an agressive symbol, so it cant attack the survivor when he is returned faceup. An other one at 1:15:15 : if the enemy dont have the aggressive symbol when he (it) is activated, there is no combat.

So glad I Finally found a channel and people who share my passion for table top games. Becca is great. Yes I love my video games to, but there is something to be said about the table top experience. Also Fantasy Flight I think has some of the best in the business. Their components are top notch and have a large catalog of great games.
Seeing Ivan playing with Becca Scott again gives me the ol' Game the Game feels D:
Love that, people in the Commonwealth were trying so hard to find synths and all they had to do was give them a bath and see if they every started to smell bad, such a simple solution.
13:30. The first turn in that scenario CAN NOT be Explore, since the characters are not in an adjacent space.
have a like for the post production dude
23:35 Pretty sure he wouldn't get Curie due to needing to be idolised. I may be wrong, I don't exactly know the rules off by heart.
"I don't want dogmeat!" :D
I miss tabletop
This was great. Thank you!
During the first part of the game, the Ghoul couldn’t have gotten the companion The companion requires you be idolised and that wouldn’t have been possible Still love the gameplay, just a little pet peeve of mine, 😝

Awesome episode :) I just bought the main Fallout game and the California expansion:)
I loved watching this (my first play-thru of yours)! I can totally see my group playing this game. I noticed that the 1st player only changed once during your game. Wasn't it supposed to change at the end of each turn? Great fun! And well done!

I think the first player changes only when the last agenda card is drawn, and a new agenda deck is shuffled and passed to the player on the right of the first player.
Where's Wil Wheaton and Tabletop?
I would have thought that since this isn’t a video game, Bethesda or whoever published this tabletop version of Fallout would have done a better job at making the artwork look more appealing. I guess they really wanted to make the board game look as lo-res as the real thing.
You have so much fun playing it. All my friends just ignoring flavor text. Not such a fun for me :/ love your game. Thank you

Great video however, when discovering a new tile on the map and there is an enemy icon you want to place the matching enemy token face up as it says in the directions on page 6.
shes a passive super mutant, so in other words shes Strong from fallout 4, shes looking for the milk of human kindness
A personal thank you to everyone i the video for explaining how to play and a bigger thank you for everyone in the comments section for correcting the wrong things and adding what they missed. I think I've got a pretty good handle on it now after watching and reading, now it's time to teach my friends how to play and what we've been doing wrong the whole time!
But... don't you take the number of hit symbols TIMES the monster level in damage? So 3 hit markers times a lvl2 monster equals 6 damage?
@kosumahedden6022

Fnoffen No, that's incorrect. You take one damage per hit symbol. The level only affects the creature's hp. Say their lvl is 3, well you'd then need 3 or more vats die hits to kill said creature. But to reiterate, thier lvl doesn't affect thier damage.

Kosuma Hedden I went to check the rules and found the following in the Rules Reference on page 7, section FIGHT subsection 3: "For each hit (💥) shown on the dice, the survivor suffers damage equal to the level of the enemy. Before suffering the damage, reduce the total number of 💥 by the armor value of all armor the survivor has equipped." Sounds like I was correct then...

I have a question: are the objectives (missions) shared among the players? Or just the one who completed previous quests can accomplish the new missions from dragged cards?
This was the best episode thus far
Dunno if anyone said this yet but when you explore a tile the first enemy spawns face up. Later respawns ARE fave down
Can y’all do a more detailed explanation of the factions, quests and quest tokens?
next game i'm getting at pax east this year, i need to play this with my dnd group
when she took CAIT at 36:56 she didnt meet the requirements of being villified. I dont believe the super mutant starts off villified

yes yes it does.
when exploring, mobs come into play face up.
Are hits by enemies not counted as "number of hits x enemy level = hp loss"? They did it as "number of hits = hp loss". I might be wrong but I thought that was how it was supposed to be done?
Can't wait for this board games expansion packs
50:42 Ivan: "I have to get a thing that says I can shop? Ballnuggets." Wouldn't the Feral Ghoul go towards the other players, since they're all clumped up together? Three versus one.
Wow, Wil Wheaton's show look so different? What'd they change?
Altered Carbon is by the way fantastic.
Y’all should play again but add the expansion pack!

Live was a lot better. Taped speeds through a lot of the dead air and bad camera cut-tos. However, I feel a lot of the fun of Game the Game is gone with the edited version.

Good playthrough experience. Lots of errors though, as other commentators already said. Actually, my 2 cents worth, I would suggest adding some of your own rule changes to make the game closer to the video game experience. Think of it as flavor experience. Doesn't really affect the game too much, unless you're a stickler for winning. I find playing with people who don't know FO requires a little hand holding.

Did you know that you can literally DIE in real life playing this game? On one page in the rules it says, when "you" are mentioned, there is no distinction between the "player" and the "character" - they are the same in these rules. Then on another page it says when your health reaches zero you are killed. Woah.
I feel like I am missing something. Is there anything to this game besides move, roll, reroll as much as you can?
Thank you for Becca cause this game sux!
An activated enemy with Ranged that is adjacent to a player will attack, not move into the player's space, during the Enemy Activation phase. If an activated enemy moves into a player's space, it will attack.

Similar to FALLOUT franchise, you get a hard and rewarding option, a compromised option, and a give up option.
yeah this is cool and they’re having fun which is great. people need to relax and just not watch if they don’t like what they’re seeing.
What was Joseph looking up at? It's like he was playing to a security camera.
I’m assuming no-one in that room has ever actually played a fallout game other than the guy on the right before to have no clue who Dogmeat is (again the guy on the right seems to have actually played fallout and at least knows who dogmeat is), what a stingwing, that dragons aren’t in the game, what rad-x is, what perks are, what jet is (admittedly it only originated in fallout 2) or what any of the letters in S.P.E.C.I.A.L. stand for
With a laser rifle, you do not pay to remove hits. You pay one cap per hit in order to avoid having to discard the rifle.
