Board Games with Scott 003 - Friedrich

Board Games with Scott is a weekly vlog where I explain a review a different board game each week. This week is Friedrich, which is a card driven hybrid Euro/wargame.

Also, all BGWS episodes after 014 are over at http://boardgameswithscott.com and are not on YouTube.

Note - I'm aware that the close-ups of the cards aren't too legible. I've learned that's a limitation of IMovie, so I'm learning Final Cut instead and looking into other compression/hosting options. Just bookmark boardgameswithscott.com and you'll be fine.

really pathetic how they only had black-white television in the 17th century

Dude! You did a great job here! Even tempted to buy the game. Will take a look at you're website!

Needs more sepia.

There is an important mistake Scott makes: when retreating in 10:07 he lets the blue player retreat, however he does not mention that it would be the yellow player that actually retreats him (the blue)

Thanks Scott! I just purchased this game. Your explanation of the basics was a real help.

[Contercontra]

Quite well done! I played Friedrich myself and really enjoyed it. But I have to notice that there is a newer version of Friedrich with no more gluing and Cards of Fate in English, so that should not avoid you from buying. Greets, Contercontra

Great idea Scott. Keep on the good work. It's just great to see the games reviewed in motion!

Cheers
