"How do we get morale?!?" You don't; you just don't loose it in the first place: such as getting weapons to not die fighting zombies and getting gas so you can move without dying.
Starting with a gas shortage so you didn't use your starting gas for initial deployment was rough. Not having weapons for the first hour and a half was rough.
I've won a few games(somewhere around half) and haven't played all that many. The game is not impossible, just hard. You NEED to strategically ignore crises, you can't afford the card drain of doing them all.
1:38 guyyyyys he's not a KILLER he's just a CREEP who's keeping a bunch of the garbage he's 'cleans up"
It's extra problematic given he likes being punched about it….
also, they should have exiled Ivan RIGHT after he got the nurse killed what the hell.
😮 ohh (I paused at the time of seeing it) First player moves counter clockwise, its so that if there is a betrayer, they have a opportunity of setting them selves up. Going last previous round, and then going first next round. Big part of the game)
Well. That went well. Now replay it again 😂
4:00 Correction: "… an Ivan Brett in your midst."
I love the concept of this game, but this playthrough shows what I've found to be its biggest issue: the game itself can be way too hard for the traitor to even matter. The betrayer often doesn't have to do anything but fulfill their secondary objective and wait for the crises, crossroads events, helpless survivors, and unlucky rolls to do the job for them (especially if you're playing with inexperienced players). Of course, the alternative is to make the game way too easy if there's no betrayer, so it's an impossible tightrope for the designers.
i love this game but all my friends hate it 🙃
I love replays
I hope they replay this again and win
My group ALWAYS forgets to pick up the Crossroads cards. So we made our own rule that whoever's turn it is has to first pick up the card and hand it to the person next to them (without looking of course). Think of it like a new Step one or a Step Zero.
Norm MacDonald was Canadian, which is painful to admit as an American… Legends never die!
Moonrakers again? Id love to see it!
Comment
Do some more playthroughs of this!! Or do a round of the long night version!
Dead of winter is a great game. 😂
I love seeing NRB playing this game, I hope you all do it again!
Love the idea of revisiting some of these more involved games, this was a fun watch.
Bonus Dangerous Drinking Game:
Every time they forget to draw the crossroads, take a drink.
Daniel the Sheriff doesn't seem to last long when he's with Sully xD
I'm pro u guys doing more replays in general, but might be worth making it easy to skip the gameplay briefing for people who've already seen it so they can get straight to the silliness?
Now I want them to beat this game at hard mode
Oh! I love watching you play this game! Honestly one you guys could play more often… this and the Thing games, and Nemesis I think? I know they are really long games but they are so gosh darn fun to watch! 😂
It's so weird to see someone play this game like that, not using a lot of fuel and guns to minimize exposure rolls.
It would be nice to see you guys play Wonderland's War again, as it was something I personally enjoyed. I got to try it once at a board game cafe, and it was a lot more fun than I had expected it to be! Hoping to see it be played again. Love your guys' content!
Smashup again please
2:17:43 😂😂😂😂😂 I’m dead
They should have exiled Laurie and Sparky at the end. The colony is dying, everyone is wounded and things are looking bleak. They all come together for one last heroic task, sending Sparky away to live and find another companion to care for him. It is the only decent thing they can do in a time like this.
Isn't the first player token supposed to go counter clockwise so a traitor might have a strong double turn if they are patient enough?
15:35 he is a heavy metal pirate. Zombies ate his pirate ship
This is one of my FAVORITE board games. I played it a lot with my board game club at the C.I.A. (Culinary Institute of America). I was the traitor once and didn't do anything until the last few rounds and won. It was such a betrayal that the whole group from then on always assumed I was the traitor. Only one other time I was the traitor and I was unable to win due to if I gave even an inch of anything I knew I was out.
In the game I did everything like normal, but at the end I withheld resources and….saved my people only to spread the virus. I had REALLYYYY valuable characters and they agreed they were needed and was worth the risk. However, the final turn I knew I could win by taking all my people back to base and….letting the virus spread. I killed the entire base camp in one turn. It was great. They were so frustrated they didn't catch on. I explained to them I was above board the entire time until the last few rounds. Hence why they always suspected me, despite only one other time I was actually on their side. I also played with the expansion version which added mutated zombies and made the game…actually very hard.
I figured he was the betrayer…He was doing exactly what I did when I was it.
This game looks so hard, it might as well have been a "Monopoly But…" game.
It's great how Ivan tries to flesh out his characters! Added falvor👌👌👌
Why does it feel like nobody likes Ivan 🙁
Sully so quiet this game 🙁
Guys, don't forget to back Season 2 of Chaotic Neutral plays Dungeons & Dragons! The kickstarter seems stalled…we need another promo to get us on a roll again
Hearing Sully get the quote wrong so often of the Irish kid, then getting annoyed no one got it was so funny
It's 'oh you wouldn't long be getting frostbite'
Great to see you play this again, and with Ivan Brett.
Please play it again and with the long night expansion
You can't keep and hold or trade events, they automatically happen when you draw them…
This scenario seemed literally impossible. How can you possibly get the food, medicine, and kill zombies with such limited number of actions?
would love to see more of this game
I love this game so much I bought it and play it with my friends and familly
1:35:10 Brandon isn't a murderer, he's a weirdo who hoards waste from other people (fingernails, hair, used toilet paper, etc.)
I would love to see more replay games outside of just this replay month, like if you had a replay week every month or every few months, or had a replay month every year. There are so many brilliant games that have been played on this channel that I could watch you play the same game 100 times without getting bored of it
thanks for replaying this one. Love it! and always a fun journey.
It's crazy to think this board game was released 10 years ago. It still feels so modern. Love to see that it still gets so much love as it is my first board game to ever own, a gift from my brother.
This is as dead of winter as it gets. Loved it.
the thing you guy's forget you can get guns at the police station and gas station wich helps to get rid of zombie's
I'm pretty sure if a character dies from a bite while moving locations, it counts as a bite at the location they left from, and not the location they arrived at.
seriously, i could watch BGC play dead of winter once per week. save us, mister tesco!!!
"Why don't we eat Sparky" 😮😢😮
