@@RenbroNL I agree. Or she couldn't build so early in the game and does not score points.

Yeah, a lot of rules mistakes here. The main one is that when the Eyrie adds a card to its decree, the suit of that card dictates in which clearing the action has to occur. So, for example, Becca should have gone into turmoil on the first turn, because her move card said she had to move from a Mouse clearing, but the only clearing she occupied was a Bunny clearing. Then later she had to build in a Bunny clearing (without a roost) but she didn't occupy a clearing that fit that. She treated all cards in her decree as wilds (like bird cards). A couple other I caught were the Woodland Alliance has to spend an extra supporter to put a Sympathy token in a clearing with 2 or more warriors from a single faction. So the WA's first placement of a Sympathy token was incorrect.

@TheButtonLoop

Adding as I go... If a WA sympathy token is destroyed, they get a card into their supporter stack matching the clearing it was destroyed in from their attacker's hand. If the attacker doesn't have it, they show the WA their hand and the WA gets a card from the deck. They do not get to choose a card from their attacker's hand. Also, all Sympathy added to the board after the first one must be adjacent to another Sympathy.

It was great to see Root in action. Picked up a copy (+ the expansion) the other day and read the rules but I'm a much better visual learner. It was also really useful reading the comments and learning of their mistakes. I thought the way the one was playing her Decrees was a little suspicious! Thanks GtG and comment section :3

Using a bird in build gives you the freedom to build wherever you want.

Unlike for example a mouse card, that only works with the mice clearings. So building your decree with bird cards makes it a lot more flexible. The two starting viziers count as bird cards. But it also means you fall harder when it all topples, and every bird card in there loses you VP. Or you can build with a lot of fox cards etc. The things you can do is more limited, like recruit in specifically a fox clearing, or move into/out of a fox clearing.

Becca's very first turn broke rules. The decrees are determined by the suite of the card used. Her using a mouse card on the move and then the bunny card on the build meant she could only move from a mouse clearing (although I thought that includes a to but everyone else has been harping it's only from) and build in a ruled bunny clearing. Becca therefore could not have moved from her starting location or built her new roost in the bunny clearing. Therefore, two of her decree on her first turn were undoable and she would have lost her turn. A lot of the rules broken were tied to the balance of the game. It wouldn't make it less fun per se, but it makes it harder for some groups to win fairly.

I have a few questions that have come up for me while playing. I am a newbie: - Can I revolt anytime and anywhere? In this game, a base has already been established in a fox glade and yet revolt has been made on the field. I thought you can only revolt once per class if there is no base yet. Or can you revolt at any time to eliminate enemies, but you can only build one base per class? In other words, if I already have a fox base, can I only revolt on rabbit and mouse locations? Can I only revolt a total of 3 times if my opponents don't destroy my bases? - The Vagabond player has flipped the teapot and bag a few times for his quests. Wouldn't that have required him to put these items in his pouch until he refreshed them the next turn? Wouldn't that have even caused him problems with his carrying capacity? - A dominance card is visible in the margin for all to see. If I know my opponent wants to use it, couldn't I just take it beforehand and keep it or not play it to block it? The alliance could, for example, put the dominance card with its supporter and block it for the rest of the game? Or are you forced to play a dominance card when you trade it?

1. no you can only revolt where you do not have a base yet, yes you can only revolt on rabbit and mouse locations if you already have a fox base. 2. not sure about the question in general, however, when you refresh items, you refresh it according to this sequence: teapot -> satchel -> then everything inside the satchel 3. a dominance card can be spent for its suit (i.e. can be put into the WA supporters) however, after it is used, it does not get discarded but it goes face up near the map to show that it is AVAILABLE to be activated and taken. if the WA decides not to use that dominance card and leaves it in his supporter stack, then he technically can "block" it from being used for the rest of the game.

ChargeBFX I don’t expect people to watch this in lieu of reading the rules, but rules misconceptions can get passed along that way, just by virtue of seeing someone else do it. It happens.

I'd love to see nyctophobia make an appearance :-)

The Easter bunny's Wargame

Why couldn’t they stick with tabletops formate. Just put on a new host in. I miss the commentary that they use to do. It add something cool and new with the show.

Because that format requires more editing and preparation. Now they just put a bunch of socially awkward egocentric extroverts in a room and let them play a game wronly for about an hour.

All sawmills must be connected! Last move wasn't legal. Cannot build new one, if you have no sawmills near clearing (the wood cannot be transported to that clearing).

Becca is... not someone I would want to play with. She's kinda mean, like when she called out what a card did as soon as it was taken from her.

No...he said that AFTER she told what the card did. Also she might have done it for the viewers sake. Just a thought

This is a wargame (despite the cute exterior). "mean" play and table-talk is pretty much par for the course. If it's the optimal play, begrudging the player for taking it is rather absurd. Think about it from a player's perspective. If you have a strong card and no one knows about it (or questions it), you should hide it for maximum impact when you use it. If someone else has a strong card, you should warn the table so that other players attack and hinder that player instead of you.

Time stamp?

First all the game-breaking rule mistakes in Betrayal Legacy (which have now likely changed the outcomes of several haunts) and now the many mistakes here, including the big one of playing all Eyrie decree cards as wilds... I love the show, but you guys really do need to have someone checking the rules. At the very least, you should have rule corrections on-screen like in Tabletop.. but it's a lot more helpful if you also have a person watching and interrupting if a mistake is made real-time.

This game always takes so long! How did 4 players finish in under 2 hours??

By constantly not following the rules. Bird player seems to play as if all cards are wild and not following the decree rules. Turn 1 she would have failed as her move was a mouse but her only clearing was a bunny. This one I as least easy fix I assume she placed the two cards in the wrong zones, but its never fixed. There are many comments going more in depth on the excessive breaking of the rules so I won't repost everything, the only player that I do not see anyone call out for breaking the rules is the Vagabond tho.

ROOT IS ON STEAM NOW!!!!

I have only played this game once, yet within the first round of watching this I noticed so many rule mistakes. Turned it off. Please work on your accuracy for these game play throughs as much as you work on character accents.

Ghost lord 15 at 7:15 she is using a bunny decree to build on a mouse clearing.

Was really excited to see gameplay but was disappointed to see the very first bird turn be played incorrectly. As others have pointed out, actions must correspond to the suite in their decree, meaning the very first turn would have broken the decree... There are a lot of rules in root, but I do wish the team had reviewed them a bit more before playing. This is a very basic rule that *hugely* impacts the game.

Wow those player boards are so warped =/

Well, many pointed out the rule mistakes... It started with the Eyrie's first turn already and their added mouse card to the Move section in the Decree, which would have meant she has to move warriors from a mouse clearing to an adjacent clearing. But since all warriors were in the rabbit clearing, it would have fallen apart already that moment... I didn't watch any further (yet).

Listen, thankyou for atleast trying to explain this game. Its Stupidly complicated for what it could be (That might be its charm). Errors will happen but that doesn't matter too much, as long as everyone had fun.

This comment section is a dumpster fire.

In the First Edition of the game you do. When they reprinted the game, they took the +1 VP out for your first Sympathy Token.

is it just me or everybody else thinks that the VP points of the Green mices were missing? how the revolutionarry mices get VPs?? the guy playing it was so far behind that it got me thinking twice buying this game

Alliance gets VP via spreading sympathy. Every time they spread sympathy, they get points. They get more points if they are spreading sympathy when they already have many of them out (but spreading sympathy becomes more expensive to do via using the supporter deck). They can also craft and destroy buildings or tokens for points. Alliance is considered slightly too strong, so don't worry about that. You can also print and play this for free, so try it before you buy it.

Eh, new players play Marquise poorly pretty much always. It's hard to realize how action starved you are when it's your first time. The rules mistakes were a much bigger problem. They would have benefitted from following the Walk Through guide.

I wonder if they would re-do this episode after a rules refresher?

Is the sound OK on your devices ?
