    I found the rulebook for this game to be very lacking in details and the information wasn't presented in a way that made sense to me, we were really struggling to understand the game based on the book, so we came to KZread and your video made the game very easy to understand. Thanks!

    Rodney... this series has really made such a difference! I'm not the sort of fellow who "reads stereo instructions" so well. Watching your videos is very uplifting... you break through the confusing bits and pave the way for everyone to understand the ebb and flow of the game. I liked the idea of "The Grizzled" and bought it as soon as I could... also bought "At your orders" as soon as I could. The depth and strategy of this game makes you work hard, which is how a good and challenging game should go. I wouldn't be too far wrong in saying that you and Rahdo are industry standard in terms of learning a game. I would include Stuka Joe in this group as well. Thanks for doing so much reading and making it easy for the rest of us.

    I bought this game at the superb Great War Museum in Perone on a visit to the battlefields with my 12 year old son last year, my great grandfather survived the battle of the Somme and I was lucky enough to know him. We bought the game based on the artwork, but sadly couldn't get to grips with the gameplay through the instructions. This is a brilliant tutorial, really clear instructions and engaging throughout, you really have succeeded in simplifying what could easily be an over complicated and confusing video. I'm very grateful and am looking forward to sitting down with my son and a couple of his friends and playing this quite unique game.

    Great episode Rodney. This has quickly become my new favorite game. I've played it many times, but have only won once.There were a few rules that I apparently had wrong. I didn't know you could remove a trauma/phobia with a speech token. I also played where the speech doesn't benefit the speech giver but was told it does. I was glad to see that clarified. I absolutely love this game. Thanks for your time and efforts. Scott LeBlanc

    Finally got my hands on a copy of this game :) This tutorial was definitely a reason for why I wanted to play this game. Great work as usual. I have been playing it with my co-workers at lunch break and I tell them to watch this before hand so we can get it going more rapidly. Basically it's just shuffle and deal even with new players :) I do have a couple of rules questions thou that maybe you can help me with: Scenario: Witdrawal with the Clumsy card GIVEN player A have the Clumsy hardknock ("After your withdrawal, you must draw a Trial card and play it") AND player A also have a Trauma ("Let's say Night") WHEN player A withdraws THEN player A's Trauma card is no longer in play when the Trial card is drawn Or is it THEN player A's Trauma card is STILL in play when the Trial card is drawn We interpreted it as "no longer in play" but there was confusion :) And then there are a few hardknocks that totally contradicts each other: Fragile - "Other players cannot withdraw as long as they have any cards in hand" Hardheaded - " You cannot withdraw as long as you have 2 or more cards in hand" Prideful - "You may withdraw only if your hand is empty, or if you are the last one still in the Mission" all of these contradicts with Fearful - "On your turn, you must withdraw if 2 identical Threats are active" Which one takes precedence ? Fearful or any of the other three? Thanks again for being awesome

    Glad you liked the tutorial! Good questions here. I usually defer players to the publisher when it comes to specific card interaction effects (too many variables for me to try to determine, and I'm not an official source :) ). That said, I'll tell you how I would rules it: The wording says "after" you withdraw, add a trial card. Since the card is placed in the common area "after" you withdraw, I'd say the player A's fear of night is no longer a consideration for the other players. The hardknock contradictions is actually clarified in the rule book, and you'll also find it in this video :) Check the description of the video, towards the bottom, and you'll find an index, with a timestamp link you can click that will take you to the rules for resolving hard knock conflicts. All the best and I hope you have a good time playing!

    Thanks for the swift reply. Found the rules clarifications. Leaving the relevant clarification here for future reference :) * In case of conflict between Hard Knocks: - on the same player, the priority goes to the oldest one. (So don't shuffle them around after they are assigned to you ;)) - on different players, those from the player currently playing are applied first.

I'm not sure how this differ from the Armistice edition but I'd love to have it, especially when I heard how actually engaging the game is in a kind of poignant but anecdotal way. Again, this is such a clean video, especially amazing because it's six years ago! 😅 Thanks Sir!

    ***** Rodney, I'm glad you decided to do this video. The Grizzled was my surprise hit at Gen Con - my buddy picked it up, basically sight-unseen, while standing in line with me while I got Blood Rage. The Grizzled has such a unique, well-conceived, and important theme. I'll likely pick up my own copy soon - I think it would go over well with some history enthusiast non-gamer friends and family. And I'll make them watch you teach it!

    Hi Rodney, I love your idea of working a narrative element into playing each card. I wonder, how do you work the lucky charms into the story? I would love to see a play through with all players invested in the narrative variant. How about a playthrough using the Duo variant in the expansion At Your Orders?

    The game is pretty cool because of how I'd like to think the way the game's setting goes. It's not about the shooting or fighting but about the fears and struggles. So I imagine the friends just huddling together after the mission recounting the experiences they had for that day and the hard knocks they picked up and if it was a success. The way the game also ends in a loss is pretty...tragic too 1.) a friend becomes so broken that even in the warmth of the campfire and comrades, he just can't do it. He could potentially have taken his own life which would've demoralized everyone to the point that these 5 friends could've all died whether by their own hand or by their weakened state against the enemy. Maybe someone survived to tell their loved ones back home but it's a tragic story to tell rather than a heroic one....This is a terrible end 2.) the deck empties revealing statue meaning, the friends weren't able to face all the trials because somehow they fell along the way to victory and the recounting of stories was done by someone else in their division spotting the same 5 friends gather together over and over the fire place. This one person slowly but surely saw the diminishing of friends returning to the camp to tell stories and give support until they were all gone. Maybe a general took notice and chose to erect a statue only for these fine gentlemen as a symbol of camaraderie against overwhelming odds even if they are not with us anymore... this is a sad but poetic loss This would also make supporting after recounting the mission make sense. In fact, withdrawing could've not really just meant withdrawing from battle but also withdrawing from the storytelling since he couldn't take much more of the horror, that's why he can't change who he chooses to support because he doesn't know the whole story or battle and who suffered the most Beautiful but sad game.....I wish I could win all the time in it...

If the speach-giving player has the suggestion card(s) in his hand.... example... no whistles have been seen in play... the speech-giver has them so he calls out the symbol for Call to battle (whistles)... Can the speech giver also discard a 'whistle' card same as other players?

At the end of a mission, if all players have played the cards in their hands so 0 cards are left (but there are still cards on the peace stack - I forgot what that stack is called), do you still add a minimum of 3 cards to the peace stack from the monument stack? In your example one player had 1 card left, but I'm wondering if the rule changes for 0 cards?
