I want to commend you, you are a nice dad. I had a good father and if I have kids I want to be a good father as well. If everyone had such nice parents the world would probably be a nicer place.
@tkzubaran That's very kind of you to say - Parenting is a tough job, I do my best.
We're glad we helped you decide the game was not a good fit for you! Wde do try a couple of other game modes in later episodes, they may appeal to you more.
I already ordered (puzzle strike) from him to Germany and all went very well.
This game looks very nice as well. Much better than I imagined from scanning over it on sirlin's site... Never really read the rules though because I was sure I won't like it. I stand corrected :)
@countcb Hi there. I thought about ordering the game directly from Sirlin Games and didn't check the numbers yet; but I assume that the shipping costs might be crazy. That's why I so much hope that it is available (in English) soon in Germany.
Whatever it was that made me miss this episode, I am happy to have watched it now. And I like the new level of complexity in this game.
And I also figured another thing: I failed in my former statement about Luke in the first episode of this "season"! And I feel inclined to correct myself: Either dice or more complex game mechanics give him the power to challenge his opponents in the proper way and win! ;)
I just wonder if and when this game is going to be available here in Germany ...
@schnellnful Thank you very much. I try very hard not to compromize the English language too much. And yeah, I would love to have it in English. My fear though is that the shipping costs might be pretty challenging, if I order it directly from Sirlin Games. Maybe I should doublecheck the numbers in a minute ... ^^
@schnellnful THat would be fun to do. Usually though, once I get into a new game I only have time to put all of my attention on that one game. My brain is not as smart as I'd like it to be :)
im in an exchange year and try to play with my little exchange brother a game. claerly i dont have any games here. so my question is is, are the game rules wrote in multiple langueges or just in one? my lengueges that i need is englisch and spanisch. that the kards arent multilengual i do know
@rogue1874 I will likely talk about this briefly, but not in great detail, as I only have 2 more episodes in which to cover Flash Duel, but you will have a pretty good idea of how it works once I have described it. Hope that helps.
nifty little game. so simple, but with so much variety to the gameplay! it seems like it would be a good game to entice the 'non-gamers' to the table.
At the beginning of this episode, you ask purchasers to let Sirlin Games know that this series is running. He already knows, actually. He put a link to the first episode on his bog. :) I don't think I can link to it on a youtube comment, though. sirlin.net, at least.
@AlbeyAmakiir I have actually talked to David quite a bit. A super nice guy, who really cares about how games "work". It has been a pleasure discovering that a game we enjoy is also being made by someone we enjoy being able to partner with.
I mostly hoped that if people found that this game was a good fit for them, that they might let David know if WiP helped them with a decision to purchase. Sort of a way to let him know his faith in our series isn't wasted.
Not sure why the shipping is so steep from the manufacturer as someone mentioned. It can be purchased from the manufacturer through Amazon for $35 with only $4.24 in shipping.
@drgarushi You can only retreat from a dashing strike. You must block an attack, or you take a hit and lose the round. Hope that helps! I would have loved to retreat from his deadly final move :)
@HobbyMaja In order to issue an attack, you have to playa number that is the same as the distance you are away from your opponent. The only move you have to be next to each other, is if you want to push. Does that help? Let me know if I can help make it clearer. Thanks for your question!
Question: Each character has 3 cards, you mentioned that you could pull random cards, do you then shuffle every card so you could get 3 different character cards ?
@Mrbulows What I mean originally, is that you could randomly choose a character and then select it's 3 specific ability cards, BUT the other method you mention IS one of the Game Modes. I'll go over that in the next video. You Denmark folk are ahead of the game :)
You know, something was troubling me about the last two games that were played. For some reason, the videos didn't seem as "fun" as usual. The last 7 Wonders video and the first Flash Strike fell a little flat. But this one raised my spirits again and then I realized why I loved it. Rodney LOST! Watching you lose, Rodney, has become one of my new hobbies! GO LUKE!
All kidding aside, another FANTASTIC video, keep 'em coming! You made me buy 7 Wonders and now this might be next....
@jrmorgan56 I think it all comes down to the sort of games you like or the way you play games. I didn't enjoy 7 wonders that much myself either. Still the better series on youtube for boardgames imo. Now if only I could stop hearing Rodney pronounce card is curd :')
@Mistabeen6 I've been saying "card" over and over again trying to hear the UUR, but I only hear ARR when I say it. I'm going to try to stop thinking about it now, or I'll drive myself crazy :)
@WatchItPlayed haha I can understand that. I was nitpicking anyway. My English probably sounds like a stereotypical European villain from a spymovie :p
Another great video, Flash Duel seems like a really fun, quick, and (on the surface) simple game. My local stores don't carry this but I might have to drop them a hint ;)
@Mistabeen6 Shipping inside the US is only $5, so like really cheap. To Canada it's only $8. When shipped overseas, it's $20, meaning actually a fair amount of the cost is shipping is subsidized. You could also try a local game store though to avoid any shipping. There's a list of stores a gamestorelocator(dot)com.
After seeing this I have no interest in the game.
I want to commend you, you are a nice dad. I had a good father and if I have kids I want to be a good father as well. If everyone had such nice parents the world would probably be a nicer place.

It's actually a lot like fencing. The numbers being where on the opponent to attack, hence you would need to block with the same number.
