Aeon's End Digital - The New Age - Playthrough

[Music] [Music] and i think we are live yes i think we're live good evening everybody thank you very much for joining me on a sort of half planned half not planned stream uh we're going to be playing aeon's end tonight we're going to be using the digital adaptation because uh aeons end has lots of expansion sets over the time it's been out and the digital version fairly recently just got the new age expansion set um and that's what we're going to be covering tonight i'm joined by paul hello another paul only pauls are allowed on the stream these days new rule um we've both played aeon's end a bit but neither of us are experts at the game is that fair to say that's absolutely fair to say yeah yeah okay um and yeah we're gonna jump in and we're gonna we're gonna play um we're gonna play new age so this is available um on steam it's also available i think for ipad as well um and yeah we're using the steam remote playability um now paul you've got the app yourself but with steam remote play it's quite cool what you can do is you can effectively uh host the game yourself use the remote play feature within steam invite your friends to play and they don't need a copy of the game as well so you only need one copy of the game and you can use the remote play and what you do is you share the keyboard and mouse out so basically i've got control of the mouse at the moment but if i take my hands off the mouse paul you've got control of the mouse as well let's just check it's working i have but i don't see any screen because it's currently on hold oh is it input input is temporary disabled while the host is busy i can control the mouse i'm not busy doing anything okay okay so uh yeah the remote plays great it's just not working at the moment um let's go into it yeah you've got you've got control of it and i'm not doing anything special so it went it went to a black screen with the police hole when you started the stream when you went right okay that's interesting because we did a test earlier on today and it worked fine we did but as you say i wasn't streaming it but have you now got a blank screen i've got a blank screen with the cursor that's all i see okay let's let's let's kick you out and invite you again okay um no i don't want to do it that way where are you on the list or less yeah too many people on here there it is okay so remote play together i've added you in i'm accepted okay i'm going to give you control of the keyboard and control of the mouse okay and i can see it i can move there you go right okay so off we go we're going to do expedition mode so new age comes with a thing called expedition mode neither of us have played this so this is going to be a a new thing for both of us but it's effectively it's a way that you can chain adventures together in a kind of like mini campaign from what i understand and i have been told that when you start playing um expedition mode that's abandoned the previous one um the it's it's fixed so the first scenario that you play is fixed and then it's after that that it unlocks some treasures or something like that we're going to jump in we're going to play a couple of games tonight and we're going to see how far we get um and there is a little bit of a story and there's there are going to be some spoilers so if you do want to you know experience this yourself uh then you might not want to watch but yeah you'll see what the first one is like anyway so we're going to play on difficulty normal which might be the worst thing this decision we've made but we'll see how we get on um and i do know there is a little bit of narrative when we start so let's read this out and you can't skip at this in the aftermath of the fall nothing was left except destruction and despair when grave hold past was buried our world collapsed and a spark of perseverance remains even now the spirit of gravehold is her people and we shall survive on this strange verdant surface more than survive new gravehold will thrive the tale of the fall master brahma elder breach teacher right so master brahma says the grave hold of the past is no more the city was attacked by a maelstrom the most powerful nameless ever seen desmodia and a team of valiant breach mages worked together to stop it but their victory came at a great cost desmodius finishing blow was an explosion of such pure in unimaginable energy that it consumed both her and maelstrom and all of gravehold with them her spell was so powerful and maelstrom so massive that the network of tunnels and cave systems collapsed but without her sacrifice humanity itself would be no more the home of countless generations and the surrounding area were destroyed many brave mages who were fighting on the front line were never found in spite of their losses the people of gravehold looked to the future with hope with nowhere to retreat they turned upward led by the remaining breach mages they made their way to the surface and fought against the ancient nameless of this strange new world they called their new home new grave hold it's original their efforts were almost in vain when zaxos one of their own betrayed his fellow mages he sought to use energy from the void to gain enough power to stop the nameless but it consumed him when the other mages tried to sway him from this path he turned on them and they were forced to stop him in the aftermath of zaxos betrayal the council of elders banished his followers from new gravehold forever to stop anyone else from making the same mistakes with zaxos gone and the last known nameless defeated the council decreed that all breaches would be closed in the hope that it would keep new nameless from entering this world the people toiled and rebuilt in peace amongst the unfamiliar flora of their new surroundings not long after new grave hold was formed on the surface however more unknown nameless emerged from the wilderness without breach magic new gravehold was defenseless mere decades after closing them new gravehold was forced to reopen the breaches and take up breech magic once more no longer willing to merely wait and defend new grave holds strongest breach mages have been organized into expedition parties many have already set out to find the source of the nameless and stop their assault once and for all i guess that's us the new the people of new grave hold still believe in a future free from nameless free from war and free from the temptation of breach magic once and for all it has been a week since commander saw school one of new grave holds most decorated breech mages led an expedition to the north they were scheduled to return days ago and the council fears the worst you are called upon them you are called upon to go after them the loss of good mages is already painful enough but soskell and his party carried some of new gravehold's rarest and most powerful artifacts no matter what you must find and return these treasures you gather your gear and set out at once the familiar trails of new gravehold slowly give way to swampland the air is muggy and thick in your lungs you feel a strange sensation of being watched you scan the dense underbrush and notice movement as someone turns and flees without hesitation you chase them deeper into the swamp release it says some guy with like eight eyes to your right a gigantic ins a gigantic insectoid nameless crashes through the underbrush towards you the man you're chasing ignores the creature and continues into the swamp he'll have to wait nameless this close to new grave hold must be stopped well that was a lot i didn't realize there was going to be that much right okay so we are fighting against the nameless uh maggoth and if we click on that uh we get all of the details about it so it's got 45 life and for those people who don't know how to play in a aon's end we're not going to do a full tutorial today but the objective is to reduce the nameless that you're fighting down to zero health if you do that you win um magath's unleash ability is to put two maggots into play okay right additional rules so each maggot is a minion that has one life each fly is a minion that has two life and if you deal exactly one damage to a fly it turns into a maggot right okay when a player deals damage to a maggot or a fly that player must deal damage to a maggot or fly in the topmost row of the nest mat i don't know what that is but we'll have a look at that in a minute the player may distribute the damage over any number of maggots or flies on the same row when a fly hatches the bottom most maggot flips over to the fly side if able okay and when a maggot or fly is placed into play it is placed on the bottom roast mo bottom roast mow bottom most row of the nest mat that has space for it when a row is filled the effect directly above that row is resolved okay so basically i think there is in the physical game there's this mat and you're going to be putting counters on the mat um okay and the reverse of that actually has the setup instructions so two maggots are placed into play on the bottom row of the nest map so it's gonna start with two maggots in play right we choose which mages we want you got any preferences with the big spells yeah can i have that do i just click you click on that one okay and then we click on fight right okay so before we jump in let's have a look at what we've got we have here the nest mat and we seem to have one two three four five spaces ah here we go right so this is the nest mat so there's five spaces on the bottom two of them are filled with maggots and it's gonna start filling them and whenever it gets full grave hold suffers two damage and one fly is hatched and then it'll fill the top bit and then the next bit and then a bit and if the top row is filled we lose the game oops okay and whenever we attack a fly or a maggot we have to go from the top down i think right yeah so that's the nest mat um so i'm going first let's have a look at my character to see because i've got this special breach here this is weird here we go so my breach number one is an ancient breach i can put up to 10 surge tokens on the breach and when a spell is cast from an ancient breach it deals one additional damage for each surge token surge token placed on the breach okay so i can basically enhance that breach and make it make it more powerful let's have a look at what my charges do so if i get five charges i can activate high tide which place a surge token on your ancient bridge yet or cast a spell prepped to your ancient breach gain two charges right okay should we have a look at what you can do are your um are your surges somewhere then uh here so you can see that there's five five wedges so once i've got five firing that you need yeah i get five charges and when i've got five charges i can put a surge token and the search token will go on to on to here yeah so your ability is your number four breach is a defender breach and when a spell is cast from an opened defender breach grave hold gains one life oh that's nice so we want to get your full breach open yeah yeah okay um right now um so i'm going first uh we've got a market we should have a quick look through the market so we have exo granite game two ether or destroy game three okay nice and easy next one recurring jasper get two ether and if the top card of your discard pile is a spell you may place this gem on top of your deck okay next one energized rubidium gain three ether and an ally may discard a card in hand if they do gain a charge like that but it does cost five anime discard a card right that's all of the gems the relics we've got galvanized bauble focus any allies breach that will be useful for getting your full breach up yeah or cast any player's prepped spell you may destroy it okay um and an ether conduit attach this to any player's breach when a spell is cast from this breach the player who casts that spell gains one ether that's nice if we get that out early you want to get that on the breach you use a lot yeah because then you effectively you get in one ether every time you cast a spell time you cast a spell speaking of spells we have tethered darts deal two damage and if it was cast from an open three or four breach you may place this into any allies hand okay um force amplifier deal three damage if it was cast from an open three or four breach deal one additional damage okay imbued smash deal four damage you may discard a card in hand if you do deal two damage to the nemesis okay and then the big one pattern strike deal four damage you may return to your hand up to two cards in your discard pile that costs zero right oh it's going to be a learning learning game very much so so i've got a spark i've also got a tidal surge which gains a charge well i've got two breeches open that's nice i start with two breeches open i'm gonna put that one in there that one in there i'm gonna play all of my gems i've got three so i'm actually going to take the galvanized bauble so that we can get your four breech opened as soon as possible okay yep that's me done right now it is the nemesis so it's drawn an attack card put a fly into play any player suffers three damage ouch ouch i'll take that to start with happy to take it okay now what's that done that's put a fly into play yeah so there's the fly on the bottom of the nest yeah oh it's me again right okay um so i could cast this it deals one damage we don't really want to do it to the nemesis at this point do we want to start we want to keep the nest down i think so if i hit the fly that's going to turn it into a maggot yeah and that would be one left i probably just want to kill a maggot zap there we go um and then i've got this to gain one charge i don't know how i do that yeah you relax i guess i target this it does no damage yep there we go um and i've got the same two spells again in fact i've got exactly the same again so i'll do exactly the same again right that's me done now it's the nemesis again ceaseless darkness okay so it's a power with two power counters on it now these tick down don't they we're doing three we've got two time to try and get rid of it and to get rid of it we need to spend five ether right i'm going to take my hands off the mouse because it's now your go yeah just have a quick look to see what this does we don't do anything with it yeah it's going to unleash and then any player suffers three damage and any player discards a card in hand okay okay i mean if you've got five now you haven't got five of you i've got five game five at this stage in the game is is tricky uh just a quick hello to everybody watching james is here andy's here short fuse is here i do need to get back to you with your email joel is here matt's here hi matt thank you very much for the patreon link um stu is here as well jill's here excellent thanks for joining in you're going to start it oh because you can put spells into breaches that you have focused that turn yeah because i realized after i played it first that's why i did the undo at the top but you won't get the bonus for it let me just have a look at your bonus um if you move you you move your mouse over your figure in the bottom left yeah so to get your bonus it needs to be cast from an opened breach that's fine does it not does it not give me one extra does it not give me one extra i think only when it's open i don't know you might be right uh will it say i can't i can't get it again here we go once opened uh once opened possible that's fine we'll get it opened as soon as we can that's all right yep okay so it's me again yep michael is asking in the chat how similar is the gameplay of aeon's end to marvel champions for me not at all um no i think no completely different games obviously they're both they've both got cards in but other than that they're both very different sentinels of the multiverse i've not played what are you doing on your hand oh do you need to draw a card you're okay with that because i can deal one damage to this um well hang on a minute this is interesting because i've got what have i got in hand i've only got three no i think deal the damage yeah yeah remember so you could make you could deal a damage or you could get me to draw a card yes that's right okay yeah um okay i might as well just go straight in with this yeah it's not actually not actually helping me this is it so you probably want to buy some more gems yeah because i'll i'll focus your breach for you yeah it's this one here yeah the recurring jasper's quite nice i think if the top real kind of dispatch is a spell you may play some gym i think okay right so that's the end of the first round round two it's the nemesis first fly throng oh six to discard if it goes off put three maggots into play and any player suffers three damage ouch right it's me we've got three damages you can get five um yeah so what am i going to do with this one damage um well i'm going to do that to get me charged i mean we've got the we got the maggots and the flies under control we're doing really well with that um but i think i'll i think i'll do that there i think while we've got the cheap spells we may as well just try and keep those down yeah right now i've got this so i can focus any allies breach or i can cast any player's prepped spell and then destroy that spell we don't want to do that at the moment but if we were really desperate at this stage to deal one damage to something we could do it but no i'm gonna or we want to get rid of the rubbish spells later yeah there you go that's looking quite nice i'll pop that in there so i've got three hmm i think i'm going to take some yeah exo granite get some cash i'm going to put that in first it's the nemesis okay are you happy taking the damage this time yeah yeah uh right now we're having to discard cards aren't we i've got four i've got four which would get me into getting this so i'm i'm happy to discard if i need to but the card i would be discarding would be a spell that would gain me a charge which is effectively no you you get charges yeah you need to get charges yeah so i can't really discard anything because the relic that i'm going to keep is going to focus your fore breach if okay and a hive surge okay that is one we can get rid of discard three cards in hand yeah it's interesting that the power cards are coming out and not any minions yes right it's my goal no it's your go that's me that's me right now this is focused so um it's not opened yet is it it's not open but it was focused last you focused it for me so because i wonder if that worked no i'm going to open it for you on my next turn okay let's give us some of these i thought we'd got those maggots under control maybe take an exo granite right it's me right okay so i am going to deal a damage to a maggot i am then going to focus your 4 breach so that is now opened i'm going to put that in there now i'm tempted to discard my three cards to get rid of the hive surge yep thank goodness yeah it's gonna be yourself guys nice and then it's you okay so your defender breach is opened which is great but grateful doesn't take in any damage yet exactly right i can do one damage or you can draw a card so let me just drop that in there you get you get the choice do you need to draw a card would it be good for you i don't need to draw a card i've actually got six ether in hand which means i could get rid of that with a power card nice okay and then let's play all gems oh no you've got six e3 in hand okay place yeah pop it on top of your deck yeah sorry you've got six in hand so you could get rid of the power so i can i can do this can't i yeah i'd get rid of it yeah come on awesome right round three good one now missus ah we got our first minion come out here we go that's not too bad not too bad at all that means i can use my breach right so now it's me okay uh so i'm going to do a tidal surge i'm going to charge now i'm going to focus a breach now is it worth focusing your three breach can't i can't can you oh can you i should have looked sorry about that i don't know what i've done with that yeah okay i'm gonna do it i just wanna just you can tell what my breaches do is there anything that works so the the third one will do one extra damage on cast that's what i was looking for i'll go for that one thank you um right i'm going to put i'm going to put that in there i'm going to put that in there um so one what i'm gonna do is oh this might be wrong this might be wrong i'm gonna play that and destroy it for three and gain an extra one and i'm gonna gain two charges and then i'm going to use that to put a surge token nice there we go there's my search token um yeah right you'll go right um well we can get this in this is one damage off of the guy put it in the fourth one [Music] yes it doesn't say i'm just wondering if that would go away because you focused if it doesn't no no you could only put a spell in earth and a thing that was focused on that particular term yeah yeah got it yep okay gems okay um our game two which gives me six which allows me to get into this or if you destroyed it you got seven uh yeah it's just four it's nice this does fall doesn't it what's the difference here so this does four and return to your hand up to two cards okay yeah okay i might take that back actually that's a bit hasty bit hasty okay when it gets played if it's then played this one gives me the option yeah this then i can play it all then i can hold this there you go oh let us know by the way for those people that are watching live is paul's volume okay because i can easily turn him up a bit if needed let me know can you hear my dog barking in the background i could it was quite faint okay we have the uh we have the flies under control absolutely got the flies under control let's get some of this oops all right it's a little i'll sort that out i'm just going to go to the discord and i'm just going to boost your volume up a bit okay if you can hear the dog barking i'll need to move the dog that's all right it's not too bad it just sounds like a sound effect there's more minions more minions right it's me isn't it yes okay so i can do that to gain a charge now if i do this i'm going to get an extra damage because it's got the surge token on it so that should be two dimensional there we go right what do i want to do with this i think i'm going to take one of those yeah yeah that etherconduit is quite nice yeah and then we're up here so that would have healed grave hold by one if grave holder had taken it yeah never done it yet okay okay uh so this is this does look good um yeah yeah i think that's good oh you got the big one uh what's happening oh right uh the nemesis is going and the minions activating which is somebody takes the damage and grave hold takes the damage i'll take the damage if you want to put it on me i am geiger okay so any place offers one damage and discard the card in hand if that card is a gem grave hold stuff is too dark now we don't want you to discard your spell no so let's have a look at what i've got i'm happy to discard that yeah so i'll take the damage and i'll discard okay i was going to say we could probably split i could have taken the double gingers no i think it's i think it's one player takes both is it is it well i might not be it might not be okay okay right it's me it is we need to get rid of this guy yep one damage and that's gonna heal grave hold right nice that's good isn't it get that big spell out get in man okay let's get these boys out i don't think they'll have fun yeah nice you got five oh bye let me go in here i think another spell it's got a nice pace to this game as you get better and you start to improve you then end up in the the tier two cards and suddenly it gets harder right okay so i'm gonna cast this which is two damage that's that minion golf nice the search tokens are nice that's great uh i'm gonna put this in [Music] i i'm gonna focus oh so i can cast anybody's prepped spell so if we were desperate so i'm just going to focus your three breach i'll play these gems and i'll gain another charge and then i'll put that in first that's made up and it's me again so i will gain a charge oh is the damage i can deal the damage here yeah let's keep those maggots under control [Music] oh i've got my um etherconduit so i'm going to put that on my first breach there you go look at that nice there we go all right okay so it's unleashing twice which is two maggots and then two maggots i think any place offers a damage in places their most expensive card what was that [Applause] most expensive card in hand on top of their deck um i'm happy to do that yeah okay yeah i've got four yeah i'll take it so i'll take the damage and that card is going on top of my deck okay right you'll go right let's go let's get rid of some of these guys now does it allow me to split it i think it probably does uh is this the four damage no it would just be four damage to one oh no there was something that said you could split it wasn't there well just just move your mouse over the um something how do we get the details on the enemy there you go um when i play a deals damage to a maggot or fly that player must deal damage to a maggot or fly in the top most row you can distribute the damage over any number of maggots or flies on the same road there you go okay good okay so i can go here and you get to take back two cards from your discard pile to your hand that cost zero um yeah yeah that's really good another one because yeah another one yep nice that's pretty good um i don't see a button to press i'll just click anywhere just click anywhere that's it yep that's fine look at all them cards wow yeah stick that relic down definitely the etherconduit probably want to put it in the fourth one don't you because that's the one you're going to be using most of the time all right this is one all our live draws a card this is just one i think it's not something there's gonna have that in there that one there right there i think i'm going for these again mind you let's just have a look here i mean do you need some do you need some of this no no i think i think we're okay i think if you go for the spells and we'll we'll get your third breach open yeah and just keep casting spells yep right nemesis unleash twice any player or grave hold suffers i think gravehold should take the three damage at this point okay because you can heal it and we're quite badly wounded [Applause] right okay now what's happened is it's filled a row so grave holders suffered two damage and one fly has been hatched but yeah right i think if you do grave hold suffers three damage there you go just a quick hello to migrant p who's in the chat and thank you very much for the for the steam key migrant p is one of the developers of the app and also mark from the center rulers popped in who didn't realize there was a digital version of this and also i believe it's matt's birthday so um yeah i shall have an extra piece of cake later on for you matt happy birthday okay let's uh let's deal with this so i can't describe seven to get rid of it yeah i can't do that let's start piling into some of this stuff it's only one or three but we've got to go from the top row down oh yeah thank you the problem is you're going to get this down because yeah the problem is if you kill one of the maggots then when one more maggot gets added that effect triggers again so i'm thinking we might we want we want we might want to leave it there for now because at some point we've got to start trying to we've got to start killing the bad guys at some point yeah yeah reasonable i'm just worried yeah if we kill a maggot and then it just adds one more maggot there's one more to it than we're getting nowhere are we yeah nice that's a good one yeah six yeah it's gonna be this one i think it is quite nice that one isn't it yeah right it's now me okay so i'm gonna um cast this to gain a charge okay and then yep right i'm now going to put another surge token on there so that's going to start ramping up i will focus your three breach that's almost open all right yeah nice and then i've got two gems again which is what is that yeah that's all right i'm going to look to see what my uh my it's you next okay let's see what this is bridge siphon uh focus only plays breach and i think you decided you're okay with that focus any players breach but also any player then gains one life each open breach you have hey joe joking breach you're happy yeah so that's a potential he'll fall in it's only four to get it yeah okay uh which one of these still four you may discard if you do deal two damage your nemesis i can discard a card in hand like a discard single one of these guys which does pretty good that's a bit of control i think that's better than this one return people up to two discards zero yeah let's do that let's get rid of this first four um yeah what are we gonna do are we gonna start going for the nemesis i think we're probably i've got quite a bunch of spells here um yeah i'm gonna crack on okay okay let's get this one hang on you know careful you're now clicking on a card to discard to do another two damage thank you just before you discard yes thank you super powerful spell thank you there you go yeah i missed that nice okay so this can go in here now yeah um this is a shame i can't oh i could actually you can you can you can oh you can you can open it yeah let's play the all righty nemesis here we go minion vile breeder place am i getting to play anybody oh we want to get rid of that oh it's nine health ouch that's good we've got this um we've got this power card that's that's that's gonna go if there are seven or less total flies and maggots place three flies and one maggot in play otherwise any place that's full damage that's the whole road it's gonna it's gonna trigger two damage a fly it's gonna trigger two damage two flies are we gonna be able to get rid of it unlikely well i don't i don't think so i've just discarded okay well i i've got a card i i've got this relic the galvanized bauble which i can use now to cast any player's prepped spell now we could use that i've damaged there yeah and i'm thinking we could we're probably not going to be able to get rid of the power card but we could do quite a lot of damage to that minion i think that's probably favorite because that's just going to keep piling those straight in it sorry okay like that's your screen doesn't it yeah that's all right so i'm gonna do this this should be three damage yeah three damage for a spark nice that's good i'm gonna do five okay so i'm now gonna play this and i'm gonna use it to cast your prepped spell nice beautiful because i can go for the minion yeah for the nemesis next turn because that's basically that's only going to be five that's only gonna be four does it cast it and it's still there for me no um yes i think it is i think it is or is it we'll find out yeah let's try it um i think i'm gonna do this one we'll see what happens is it still there no it's not okay well now we know [Applause] and i'm not going to destroy it the growth holds gainer i think i think it did yeah yeah yeah yeah uh so that's going to go in there i'm going to play these gems i'm going to get two more charges very good interesting all right there was this time oh ouch are you happy taking it yeah i'll take it yet okay oh oh god [Music] we've not been keeping an eye on those right it's me again so let's have a look this will be two damage and i gain a charge that's that guy that's got to go though yep that's good right now to get rid of the first one is seven ether i can't do that i can get rid of the second one i could discard four cards in hand so i think i'm gonna do that i'm gonna play that to there and then i'm gonna get rid of that yeah very good okay right you go have you got seven ether no no i haven't unfortunately uh right this can go so i think we need to start doing it how much is going to do it's going to be five or do we go for the nemesis well nemesis 34 is yeah i mean getting there let's go okay this one we're getting there going there the grave holds doing all right in terms of life yeah we're doing okay with that as long as i can keep firing a spell into there we can use one return okay um got three you've got three i'm inclined to go here um yeah if this was on open to two or three yeah yeah yeah it's nice right nemesis again so the power goes off and place six maggots into plate or any plate right well we've got to have the maggots we don't want to get exhausted oh dear yeah that's a lot do you [Laughter] quite mad it's getting out of control right yeah let's have six magazines he's gonna click it yeah yeah i'll click it ouch yes right change of plan we need to sort the nest out so i've got this which is going to be two damage so yeah we'll go yeah we do okay right if you've noticed that we've got more flies on the screen we have that's quite nice actually i've just noticed that there's lots of flies because they're attached now i could cast that spark or the gift of spirit it's either that or focus a breach yeah i don't need to focus any more of mine i've got i've got the three up i need okay so i'll cast a prep spell then yeah may as well which one we're gonna cast that's end up being two isn't it and the other one heals grave hold so let's do that one and let's do that okay yeah and do you want to destroy that card um not that powerful was it yeah i think yeah let's get rid of it yeah it's in the deck yeah exactly right i've got five i'm tempted at this point to take my image imbue smash we need damage because i'm not outputting much damage but once i've got an imbued smash in slot one and breach one then that's quite good yeah yeah okay uh this is just one too yeah so this can this can take out a couple of the maggots actually yep um well we can't really afford this to be going because we can end up with a lot of damage here yeah [Music] yeah three i'm just gonna keep going spells now okay next round nemesis first that's going to kill that that will kill me yes how are we going to get seven ether we've not been going for it with the ether generation no because i've been buying spells um okay this is going to be four damage yeah okay there you go got it down to 25. uh there's something in the market that did healing for an hour no that was your your ability did healing i don't think there's anything in the market that does healing okay um i'm going to cast one of your spells i think am i i don't know i'm gonna put that in there i'm gonna put that in there it's either focus one of your breeches or cast one of your spells i don't need focusing i i don't think i need focusing because it's too late for me to focus all the way back um i probably need to gain charges to heal you yeah i can't i can't do either of those it's either focus a breach or cast a spell okay i'm not urgent on casting a spell okay focus the breach yeah and i'm at three so i'm going to take one of those yeah you never know we might get to the seven yeah that's four says i could cast my own spells okay yeah that's useful play a spell and then cast it right okay good damage it's got a card in hand which i can yeah blast the nemesis i think that's our best chance now discard the card or two damage [Applause] and then we are going to do that one in there so if we can survive one more turn each i think we've got this whale gems and i'll buy one of these all right get ready for it i think that's a win i think we've done it i think we have yeah it's a zero doesn't really matter which one it is does it um okay let's pick someone else can i do this one yep would have done it six no hang on yeah do it and then discard a card it's four plus the two for discarding the card yeah yeah awesome there we go nice oh yes we kept the nest under control when when we needed to and we focused on the nemesis so yeah we did well we did well good right now then let's see what happens congratulations you have destroyed magus the expedition carries on so um yeah now what time is it because you've got to disappear at night haven't you i do i probably need to not start another game paul okay yeah so if you disappear we do have willem who's said he's going to join us tonight so william's going to pop into the discord and he's going to take over from you but yeah thank you very much for for joining me fantastic thank you very much again i will i will speak to you later on now i'm probably going to have to invite um willem into the game on steam let me do that now uh i'm in the discord he's in the discord excellent um there you are so i'll invite you in you've been invited i will give you the keyboard and we'll give you the mouse and we will kick paul out there you go paul has been kicked out yeah mine's gone thanks okay i'll see you later paul right and i'm just going to turn your volume up a bit well yes there we go right if you're happy playing the character that uh paul has just played yeah i sure know how those work a bit right so let's continue and let's move on to the second game and see what happens as the fight ends you finally relax the man and his allies have vanished but during the battle you saw them watching and taking notes from a distance you recognize the symbol on their cloaks these are followers of zaxos the same ones who were exiled to these woods years ago could they and this strange pet nameless had have had something to do with the disappearance of saskal's team you tense up seeing a burst of fire in the corner of your eye you turn to see a woman with strange crystalline hair torching the corpse of one of maggots minions until the ground around it is charred and blackened nameless scum ria she spits on the ground nice if you let him sit they fester and poison the soil they're no good even when they're dead you recognize her as ria a fellow breech mage and master in the study of relics and a member of the missing expedition ria finishes disposing of the corpses new mage added to the barracks right so that's an extra character that that you can play next and there we go right he's here but we'll stick with our the two characters we've got for now thanks for the save our team didn't even see these things coming what happened where are the others the way they moved it was just wrong i fought plenty of nameless but none of them coordinated their minions like this way too smart for these buggers bunch of monsters shouldn't have been able to get the jump on us we tried to retreat but commander's oscar got captured and without a leader the orders got jumbled we retreated in different directions i don't know who else is alive or where they are we have to go after them says the character who's not with us hold on these might come in handy ria opens her bag and distributes some powerful looking magic artifacts among you these are the treasures right so yeah one thing i've learned is that between the sessions or between the games of this sort of mini campaign you get cards added so there we go some new cards quite a few new cards oh and treasures right so these get added to the barracks i don't know how we get access to the barracks you look at you running to me first i've been studying relics all my life so commander soskel entrusted our treasures to me if those monsters are still out there you're gonna need them ria leads you back towards where her expedition was ambushed to begin looking for survivors the swamp gives way to trees as you trek farther north you keep an eye out for zaxos for the zaxos followers from earlier but the woods seem empty the thick branches creak in the wind and even the midday sun struggles to pierce their repressive shade the thick crackling energy in the air makes your hair stand on end something dangerous is near you crest a hill and spots a massive swirling breach with a twisted shape kneeling before it inside the portal you barely make out the shape of a gigantic shadowy spider you winch closer unable to comprehend what you're watching the knee link creature seems humanoid except for a mass of arachnid legs bursting from its spine breach energy flows into its skin as it communes with the portal that's the nameless we thought i am no mere nameless they bow to me now ria goes rigid with shock it can speak the spider creature twists around towards you his face is warped but undeniably human why have you returned i don't want to have to kill you let me finish my experiment in peace the creature stands his segmented leg snapping into place one by one the portal behind him wavers opening briefly to reveal a man within bound and gagged by spiderwebs commander suskel he struggles against the void energy seeping from the breach into his skin let him go ria takes a step forward the creature slams his foot down blocking her path you foolish mages you scorn zxos for daring to evolve we can use the power of the nameless to become stronger i can save gravehold then the people will worship their true saviors my master zaxos and his faithful student the great arachnos okay off we go then so um yeah let's have a look we're fighting arachnos 70 health when it unleashes it moves one space forward on the ritual track okay players may spend ether equal to the number shown on the ritual track for the current position of the arachnos tokens to move it one space back okay so there's going to be this ritual track it's going to be moving forward we can spend ether to move it back when it reaches the end of the ritual track or arachnos has more than eight nemesis tokens the ritual is complete when the players would win the game and world of devourer has not yet entered play arachnus loses a nemesis token and the ritual is complete okay when the ritual is complete the nemesis deck all minions and powers are removed from the game any nemesis cards that were being resolved when the ritual was completed do not finish resolving the nemesis draw phase is skipped for the rest of the game the world devourer card with the tier number equal to the number of nemesis tokens is placed into play and while the world devourer is in play arachnos cannot be dealt damage and the players win when world devourer is discarded when a player is exhausted while world devourer is in play will devera in gains 10 life instead of unleashed twice right okay i'm sure that will make sense yeah it looks like so basically we're trying to stop a ritual and once we kill him the ritual is still completed but depending on how far you came the the big one is more powerful yeah okay now we've got this four supply cards com four more supply cards are available to choose from unselected cards will be banished and unavailable for the rest of this expedition so i guess we can i guess we we've got four cards any we don't choose are gone so i guess we click on these and see if it gives us options yeah okay so we've got another gem available to us which is the resonant pearl gain two uh an ally may discard a resonant pearl in hand and draw a card if they do gain an additional one so we it's do we want to replace one of our existing gems with that one and i i never know at this stage because we could replace that one we could replace the big one because we never bought the big one at all yeah and a big one given that i gave um did give three thousand yeah charges and charges if um if anyone discards a card on hand which is of course pretty good for both of us the only drawback being that it's so expensive yeah and the second one the the one that goes for there we could i'm happy to lose that one yeah fair enough okay so we're gonna get rid of that one and we're gonna put this one in its place okay right relics now we use this galvanized bauble a lot and it was really good and the other one wasn't used at all i think right oh no no you used to that one was quite nice as well but we have two options ones we can put in caged fire destroy the top card of any player's discard pile or destroy this in game two life okay i mean all cards are good or a seven cost relic grave hold gains two life or any player gains two life that's really good but you gotta get to seven yeah that's the thing that we don't know how much we're gonna need to spend to keep the actual under control no i'm leaning towards expensive it's not good here i'm thinking the same what are we what do we think about the first one this caged fire yeah the thing is that the one that calls for that we have now uh also generates more um currency yeah it pays for itself so yeah and this one is from the top card can you can you see or you can't see your drone yes you can yeah you click on your discard pile and it will tell you what the top card is oh yeah sorry it's the top card of the discord values i mean that's nice for thin in the deck [Music] migrant p says take a look at ria if we're interested in getting expensive relics all right she's she's good at getting expensive relics yeah i think she upgrades so you can discard one and vincent instead i'm i'm considering replacing [Music] um the galvanized bauble with the caged fire but i'm not sure no that's fine because then you don't really are forced to do the same technique that you did last time at least you only get to do diversity okay and finally spells we have a new spell it is costing eight wow while prepped once during your turn when you gain a charge any ally gains two charges and deal five oh no and deal five damage so when you cast it um it deals five damage uh when you cast if you deal it deals five damage when you play it if you have a sword at the same turn you also gain a charge someone gets to gain two more charges that's how i read it and then it's really can stack up the extra damage that you can do and maybe even healing that i can i can do this one wasn't used at all right which one the number four let you clicked on um we didn't use it at all get rid of it yeah replace it with the biggen okay here we go uh maybe we have to recheck the gems because um we have two very expensive uh spells now maybe we don't want to have another spell that generates a bit more either than what we have now what was the other spell with the the spell or the other gem that's right out of the gem so yeah the other thing was just that one we could put that instead of the um but i quite like the energized rubidium because it it's five and it gains three yeah we just got to get it early okay yeah well i'm going to go with the same character because i understand that one oh he's now saying level one treasure oh i've got a treasure right okay so deal one damage game oh these are nice right so it's basically improvements of spells gain one or any player gains a life okay i think [Music] i'm gonna take that one yeah okay nice so which character do you want do you want the same character or do you want a different one let's see um because where can we see what she actually does that's a good question actually i don't know right click right click here there we go well i record the card and handle this cut file to the supply pile gain the car that cost up to two more so if i have the five i could upgrade to a seven yeah if the seven could operate two and eight sounds like fun right no is always better i'm going to pick this one don't forget to click the level 1 treasure because you start the card yes of course so um we're not that pushing open or focusing bridges now let's get flexibility oh i'll do this one go for the extra damage [Music] this is just going between us yes i think we are ready okay let's go that'll be interesting okay so let's have a look at the board and see what we've got first of all this ritual track okay so the nemesis has gone twice brilliant let's deal with the nemesis first any player suffers one damage if the nemesis is tier two i'll just take a damage okay right well at least it's done it's two turns it's out of the way right so this ritual track here where is it is it on the space with the with the mouth is that where it is i don't know there's the world devourer at the start of each nemesis turn grateful to us isn't right that's not happened yet the world of error has not come into play yeah exactly yeah so i'm not sure where it is on the track i don't know if it's at the start or if it's where the teeth is um well if i just start playing some gems i can always rewind it i could not possibly try to move this back right okay uh gazim is in the chat it says the marker is in the top left okay so that that top left that's where the marker is at the moment okay thank you so yeah so yeah basically we can't do anything yet because it hasn't looked forward yet it hasn't moved forward oh what's your special card right game one but gain an additional two that can only be used to buy a relic nice that is nice but i don't have any there's no breaches no braces she's supposed to be the most powerful mates yet and she doesn't even have creatures but you could buy that um ether conduit they're quite nice to get out um this one right no sorry the column with this that one yeah that makes sense uh i have four and i would have two left to use on this one or you could open it yeah that's probably better and stick a spell in it so focus and always put the card in first that you want higher in your yeah yeah okay yes here we go so the teeth with the green background i think that's nemesis tokens let me have a look yes that's nemesis tokens so we've got a minion in play with seven health that every time it activates any player suffers a damage no so we want to get rid of that and then we've got this which we have to discard five spend five ether to discard it if we don't it unleashes and arachnos gains one nemesis token now remind me what it does when it unleashes again it moves one space forward on the ritual track right okay so um well i've got a fairly simple start but we've got three now three was all sorts of fitting things deck or being rewarded for having lots of these to uh to get new cards yeah i think i'm gonna take a resonant pearl okay and it's me again did you start with nine lives last time as well or did you um no i've taken a damage oh yeah sure sorry yeah for when the this thing attacked yeah makes sense so again search a deal of damage well we'll start we'll get there eventually um so now is that classed as a gem it is isn't it so i'm going to put that in there and i'm going to put that in there i'm going to gain two i'm going to try and i'm going to play that together live stop this one you'll go gazimi says if it reaches the teeth it gains an extra nemesis token right okay that's it over uh here will open this one i said and i have two left uh two okay round two it's the nemesis um i'm happy taking the damage yep yeah i'll just look at this one i know that there's lots of healing going on anyway oh this one is not so good what the nemesis tokens do again the more they have the more powerful the the world devourer will be once we locate oracles okay um so it's me i can do this one and discard one for a total of three damage um well yeah you you do the spell and it deals one damage and then an ally oh yes it's a lady card which i will all right so i'll start with just doing it on here because this one is the most yeah so i now click a card in hand to discard there you go nice thank you um i can do this one to you right so that you immediately gained that next turn when you catch it yep nice so i'll play all gems and i basically have have another aretha conduit uh i'm gonna have two left i can also take this one out of three left to maybe start doing some more spells here yeah or another gem yeah the gem is probably better so i'll take this one this one okay okay good so um that's just game charge but i also gained an ether uh that's one damage to get rid of that nice pop that in there so an ally may discard a resonant pearl in hand and draw a card if they do it again right i don't think that's gonna happen so it's five well we did say we were gonna keep the big gem so i'm gonna take it okay you're up so to get rid of this one we need to spend five which means it's probably going to go off um so i can either go for this one again yeah just for now i'll take this one do you want to take it spread the damage out there um sure [Applause] right what do we want to do nemesis toke can we get rid of it we can't get rid of the nemesis tokens can we no i don't think so [Music] so i'm tempted to say unleash because unleashes will be also a step on the ritual track it will but that's less permanent than the nemesis yeah exactly we can at least undo that yeah fair enough we missed it uh jonathan is saying we missed the discard apparently i didn't think we could have done it uh yeah you bought a gem for five and you could have used that for uh for discarding it ah that's a good point yes i just got greedy i saw the five and went oh bye gem exactly right it's my go so i'm gonna get into charge then i'm gonna do that to heal then i'm gonna pop that in there and play these gems and i got four hmm i might move it back or do i wanna yeah especially with the minion on there we might want to [Music] okay next round tissue yes yes so this is just one damage so this is my discord file of any player's discount file uh this is my draw deck or is this discard piles on the right hand side sorry i don't have it says one there you go it's your spark not sure if i want to get rid of that one yet and on your top cards would be this one yep i'm happy to lose that fair enough so drag it here and do this and do this nice all right so i'm gonna play all of these so now you can discard it and draw a new one right sure i'm sorry no no no because then that gets more stuff yeah yeah so i have two for one of these and then i still have three or four left or just buy the big one here and don't mind these number four and three is probably better still for these pearls um yeah this is the last time i'm gonna buy stuff like this from now on i will focus on damage and doing stuff like you uh so this one this so he on leases i'll just stick to that you have to take that sure so spend six if we don't we'll unleash grave holds over four damage not too bad don't have six i have five oh no i'm gonna get six because i'm going to be casting a spell from there so that's going to be two that gives me the one so i do have the six nice now remind me what this is this is game three an ally may discard a card if they do they gain a charge there you go so if you want to yep you can discard a card and you'll gain a charge if you do so that's basically just one of these okay i'm gonna put that in there i'm gonna put that in there and play these so i've got six which is nice it's only one unleash and it's all also has three before we have to there's still plenty of time but what would i do with the six i'd buy some more gems yeah i'm gonna buy a couple more gems okay let's meet again so um can do it on a minion except that we would be wasting one but still he's going to go next anyway or soon yep probably just take it you know let's have a look see if i want to discard a card i think i don't okay so i started dead all right um let's see i can use your first bridge or i can put it on yours um [Music] sure yeah because i don't have anything yet now and at least for now we know for sure that you can get that means i'm going to get two additional ether at the start of my turn exactly yeah um and i'll i said i was going to focus on damage i'll just make one more gym this is the last one really oh what is that that is an upgraded card that must be something to do with this campaign so it unleashes twice he played folks ouch ouch ouch right definitely need to get that sent back and it is my go so uh this is two damage which i can only do on arachnois um and then i've got gain a charge which gets me another effort right so i'm going to put that into play that's three which means i can move that back uh i'm going to gain two if you wanted to yeah discard a resonant pearl in hand you can yeah let's do it because then you can do it once more and still get the healing from the other one yeah [Music] okay so i've got another three so i'll move that back again um and i'll gain a life so that we're on eight each and i'll put that into there done it's a beautiful game this there's so many different variables that go into it it makes every game different yes this one will be here nice um let's see what's in my discard file i don't want to destroy that what's on your desktop file um this one is the top one right here's the top one yep that can go um this one in here i only have two so migrant p says with this nemesis unleashed basically it costs you three ether to reverse it the question is is four damage to grave hold worth three ether yeah but it it's what happens when it gets to the end of the track because when it gets to the end of the track i'm just going to read again what happens when the arachnos token reaches the end of the ritual track or arachnox has more than eight nemesis tokens the ritual is complete so as soon as it gets to the end of the track the ritual is complete the nemesis deck all minions and all powers are removed from the game and the world devourer card with the tier number equal to the number of nemesis tokens is placed into play and while the world devourer is in play arachnos cannot be dealt damage and the players win when world devour is discarded so at that point we need to kill the world devourer instead of arachnos and at the moment it is it is that one because there's only one nemesis token and what did they say or how much life did it start with it's like um the world devourer itself not sure oh um um i mean on the yeah i'm not sure it says oh he's saying yeah yeah so once it comes into play it has the life of a reckless plus ten right okay got it so i really want to burn down the redness to keep this uh manageable as well okay so yeah you can spend three to reverse and unleash most of the time versus six for blocking the unleash ahead of time all right right i see what you mean yeah so if we let this trigger it's going to unleash which is going to cost us three to reverse and grave hold suffers four damage or we spend six and basically that extra three is stopping grave hold suffering the four damage right okay so my go i'm going to gain a charge and i'm going to deal one damage and we'll be able to rack this because that's all we can do right i have so much stuff here um lots of gems this is good so there you go you can discard a card if you want to to gain a charge yes i will you are now fully charged um you can discard a resonant pearl if you want to see do you need it because she will get at least three more then you're at nine so it will be either nine or ten so the question is what do you want to buy ten ten ten's good i can buy the big thing for eight and a chance okay so bye bye pearl got another one uh now it's the same thing [Music] no because then otherwise i'd have 11 which is a waste uh or it's it's eight plus three then you wouldn't take the charge but you could take something else i could take something else i could take another gem no i'm happy to take a charge it's up to you i'm if you want to keep the resin crystal that's fine if i keep it then i will have four um no i'll just discard it okay something better wow so i've got 11. i'll tell you what i could take the big one and send the uh send the what's it back there you go nice and let's pop that in okay done um let's pop those in right a flame acolyte for ragnar says three or less nemesis tokens he gains a nemesiter damage here putting this one there playing all these gems um let's see and you've got your charges as well yeah that's the thing um i might want to not put the uh this one in play oh no sorry this was a lot this was a treasure it's quite good though isn't it yeah but i don't have anything to return yet i think because these are all starting cards right yeah and um we can of course try but it's oh it's also of course it's also from the discord file is it from discard oh right okay nice um but then i still really need to buy something can you upgrade a three to a five uh let's see what happens can i like a resonant crystal yeah that's true um i have to undo because i clicked the wrong one um so if i do did it now do it let's see rewind it again let's have a look at the charge see what it says return a card in your handle discover part of its supply gain a card from any supply card that costs two more than the return card and place it into your hand oh it probably went into your hand oh yeah okay so there we go that's quite nice there let's do this so that's really nice yeah because this card this one i could get a five pack as well yeah i could put a six back but of course that's more interesting for these ones if you get rid of one of the resonant pearls and take one of the bigger gems or potentially take one of the spells because then you get it straight away mm-hmm which means you can play it and gain game three yeah because taking i'm going to focus a bit on opening these yeah uh i can discard a card if i want to give you any charge which i think i will there you go nice thank you so now i have also quite a lot um migrant p has spotted an animation glitch that he's looking into i'm not sure where you've obviously spotted something that we haven't oh is it that flash no yeah i don't know i don't know where it is but uh i can use six here and get one more of these i think that six might be a good time to get rid of it yep yep take one of these so nice unleash twice grave health suffers two damage to play with the most expensive prep spell discards the spell okay don't like these upgraded cards [Applause] oh ouch ouch click a prep spell above or on the right to discard it yeah the rule of thumb basically you do two damage and the one that i have does one or three if you discard a card um well i'm happy to discard a card uh yeah but it's your turn first uh it might take a while until it's my go again oh i see what i mean it's my go next isn't it yeah okay yeah if you're happy losing your card okay so am i go right uh you don't have a resonant crystal to discard it's a fairly simple turn got four four's not great yeah before he's not great at all you can take two charges and uh uh actually yes you're right now there's this option which is quite nice actually cast a spelling game two charges but now i'll place another search token and then i'll take another two charges okay next round nemesis first a portal guardian there's three nemesis tokens now um um so yeah i really should time time is better your top one is another crystal get rid of one of those again yep yes please i can either move this back um take two of these what do your charges do again they allow you to upgrade cars don't they i'm great stuff you know i think take two charges awesome exactly there you go it's a nice hand right my go so this is three damage now now gonna be a big spell so while prepped whenever i gain a charge an ally gains two charges so that's really good um so i'm gonna do this you can discard a resident crystal if you want to yes okay i am then gonna gain a charge which means you gain two charges nice i'm going to put that into play now there's no point you discarding a card to gain a charge is there because you're at full charges yeah um so i'll put so we skip that i'm gonna put that in there and then i'm gonna play that now then yeah if you go to seven you could buy yeah that's what i'm thinking or i could move the thing back twice yeah it might be better problem is with having too many spells i don't have enough breaches open so yeah i'm gonna move this back too or maybe just one just one gain another two charges place the third surge token wow yeah love the power creep on this one right so this is uh this is eight damage boom nice have some of that right and even this spark is going to be four damage so resonant crystal if you wanted to discard one yes and another resonant crystal and then tomorrow right nine i don't know what to do now with nine too much money um you can do four and five so four four five original track and five for the spell maybe that's what i was thinking i was thinking the imbued smash [Music] yeah so i'll take that uh no it's actually only three for the ritual track um hmm i'm going to go for another big spell yeah let's see what happens and this is why i prefer rayon's end at two and three player rather than four is because you get more time to upgrade your character so let's see jonathan is saying eight is our trigger for him to come out yes you're right yeah so ah let's see i can get rid of this one and you get like this big spell yeah i think i'll do that this is interesting because we're not focusing any breaches in this game as opposed to the last one where we did a lot of that um do you want to discard a card for a charge i probably will let's have a look at what we've got yeah we got rid of all your your small ones yeah i'll get rid of that that's fine all right um so let's see um the top of my discord file that one all right that's the one that you just yeah but i'm happy to lose that it's up to you i'm also happy if you wanted to discard it to get to just to get to life but i i'm more than happy to lose that card that's on the top of my deck [Music] so i'm tempted to do the focus to get closer to some more spells and get another okay nemesis is turning right okay it's got four nemesis tokens i'm a full life anyways [Applause] oh dear well that didn't last long [Music] this is a borrow one yeah okay right here we go so my go this is just damage um let's see not gonna get to eight anyway i can overpay for this one doing this probably a bit much isn't it it does do 3 damage um yeah the chances are i'll get to have a go before you but then again i'm doing four damage with mine yeah so one of my mine's going to be overkill as well yeah and yours is um all right one it's gonna be full you know then i'm gonna do it yes discard one for two damage on him okay i also have this one this one oh this one right here and you have four i have four [Music] i'll take two of these um yeah you have the one that's you know you don't have to one and this one go another one [Applause] i'll take the damage this time mm-hmm okay well at least there's no nemesis cards in oh no there is there's another one okay there's a lot of those cards we are at five nemesis tokens and it is my go so i've got four damage there's nowhere else that this can go um right i am going to play that to gain a life i'm going to play that if you wanted to discard a resonant crystal we will i will play that you can discard a card to gain a charge if you wanted to and then i'm going to play that into there and then i think yeah then again oh look at where oh yeah yeah we do wow i missed that we we both do get a turn until the round is ending uh nemesis all already gone i'm gonna send it back so two and four and another three yeah gotta be done that's me again um [Music] do you want to discard anything discard a card to do what two more damage oh sorry i'm gonna oh no i have to do this just thought i was gonna undo it um yeah two more damage yeah let's do that let's see this is one two three all right i have a resonant pearl that i can discard to give you an extra one if you need it i'm gonna first do this one to do this to upgrade something uh [Music] because i can now upgrade this into a seven [Music] which would go into your hand which you could then put straight out yep and this one yeah that's good okay um i have to attach it right yeah it's fine [Music] um so this if you would discard one little beef or there you go it kind of makes sense to drop two more in here i don't want this one i'm kind of good on gems right so this is four damage i've now got two super spells that one's going in there i'm gonna gain a charge which means you can gain two charges yes please um i'm going to put that in there i'm going to put that in there it's it's overkill but i'm going to get in charge so i'm doing uh a whole bundle of damage on my turn and it's my turn next nice nice so this is eight damage [Music] [Applause] now you don't have to cast spells do you oh yeah you can keep them right yes if it's a if it's an open breach you do not have to cast a spell if it was a a closed breach that you'd focus you do have to cast it um but i think i am going to cast them both yeah sure i think at this stage the problem is i've not drawn any spells that's going to go there to heal um it's going to gain one it's going to be another charge it's going to be another surge [Music] um resonant crystal i don't have any so pop right there pop that in there okay oh i think grave holder can take the damage yeah it's fine it's not it's not taking much damage in this game so oh here we go again um yeah my hand isn't that good anyway and i can get one upgrade from my discord files okay if you're fine doing it new that's fine you have a lot of uh of mana i don't really sorry it's not my maths either right and i still have all those small cards right that's another five damage getting there slowly do need some spells there would you like to discard a card to gain a chance no i guess right now got nine so i think i'm going to discard that for seven mm-hmm uh which leaves movie two which is a charge okay got my double spells again yes the big ones so um yeah of course i will do this a couple of gems back in hand um i can't do this one and this one two and eight which would go into your hand which you could then play so yeah it's quite nice it's good um [Music] you can discard one two create a charge yep do that i don't know i have six i could focus to do this one um yeah yeah you can even open it now because opening is five yeah and you'll go again me again so [Music] [Music] we're whacking out the damage now yeah should be good oh it's it's going to be close this one because it's on five nemesis tokens destroys the most expensive card in hand don't like that so i don't really want to destroy one of my eights no exactly my gem is fine because i'll i'll heal you whenever i can it's my turn so you can discard i will discard a card down to 21 [Music] no spells no but uh only six machine let's see sorry i'm gonna undo this and we want to move this back yeah so that stopped the ritual we can slow down the number of nemesis tokens it's getting yeah okay well this is quite nice five damage recharge that'll be a life on you and then we pop that in there and that in there and then i will gain a charge and you can gain two charges and you can get two charges again the car of course nice oh wow that's really nice and then i'm gonna put that on there that's pretty awesome and it's my go again there you go have some of that oh look at this it's so close and i don't have anything prepared is there any iron is there anything special i can do like cast a spell or something um because i can put a one in i have no way of casting a spell over uh now only if you had the full um charges for so close but i think we might have this it's just an insane amount of damage uh there's no point you're discarding a card to gain a charge so yeah got nine well my charge ability can cast a spell but i can't charge it all the way i'm one short of charging it all the way otherwise yeah i could have used it to cast a spell [Music] very close very close what should i do for nine can move back to ritual trigger i'll move the ritual chart just just for just for a laugh there you go didn't think we were gonna do this one no no it's not over yet but very slow look at the look at the amount of damage we've got here we've not been facing that many uh minions actually it's been a lot of power cards um yeah that's a training can't do anything else can i do more actions yeah okay i could use this one but it doesn't i don't have anything to upgrade so yeah the nemesis is going to take a turn and let's see what happens that's fine there's the big one that's the biggen it's a tier three one as well but that's fine i mean of course if it goes first twice next round nope there we go last one have some damage [Applause] oh so it's not over oh no no so this one's starting oh no the world devourer comes out oh forgot about this right okay so what's happening now then we're still good we hope we're still good but what do we have to do we have to kill that kill this one yeah and it's got 20 life okay i was getting all excited then thinking that we were done uh okay well i can discard something i just got a card yeah sure i want to get to the dispels it we don't really care about see either anymore yeah i don't really know what i want to do for seven getting some charges one two three and then i could use that to cast out spell um i would wait probably yeah i'm just putting the search token on there you go six search tokens has anybody got to 10 search tokens so let's see this isn't it [Music] so let's see what happens if i try to upgrade this one i can probably just get this one back right yes right and just put it in again nice kind of feels like cheating but it kind of does so now when i do this then you would also get two charges yeah or four no two yeah yeah i only have one you've already got the one um i have three more left let's put them in here there you go here we go [Music] oh is it one short no but like oh yeah oh no just got a card for an extra one i'll discard that done oh nice awesome yeah that's really clever the as i say the the design of this game is extremely clever and they have really interesting rules for each of the nemesis which means they play in a very different way and then your choice of character and your choice of cards in the market that's what gives this game absolutely massive amount of variability um so many different ways to play it oh we're on a roll it's been good so i think we'll wrap things up for there i don't know how many games there are in the campaign um i know tom heath from slicker drips has been doing uh physical playthroughs of this and he's done three chapters so far um but yeah i don't know how
