The Elder Scrolls: Betrayal of the Second Era - In Depth Component Overview - Not Bored Gaming
Join me on a journey through the exciting contents of the latest release from Chip Theory Games - The Elder Scrolls: Betrayal of the Second Era.
I have been fortunate to be sent an early, pre-production copy of the game by Chip Theory, as it delivers to backers at the back end of the year.
This is a pre-production copy so there are still some tweaks to be made, but the game is almost at the finished stage. I hope this satisfies your excitement prior to receiving the final product.

Where is Andromedas Edge solo play ? 😢
It’s all recorded and ready to publish. Just waiting for Cardboard Alchemy to tell me when to release it.
Mark: some old people (I’m one) have CRS. So, if you would be so kind - would you please include your full name on this page!
Hi - sorry, I’m not sure I understand your post. I’ve no idea what CRS is (and, at 53 - I too am relatively old).
Excellent video! Thank you so much! 😊🎉
Thank you and thanks for watching
Why is the watermark in the start has 2022 and not 2024?
Your company's games, my family and I really like them, especially Too many bones. I think most good games like this have a problem with language barriers, they should be translated into my Thai language very much. I hope that one day I will have the opportunity to fill and break the language barrier.
เกมค่ายของคุณ ฉันและครอบครัวชอบมาก โดยเฉพาะ Too many bones ฉันคิดว่าเกมดีๆแบบนี้ส่วนใหญ่มีปัญหาด้านกำแพง ภาษา ควรได้รับการแปลเป็นภาษาไทยของฉันอย่างมาก หวังว่าสักวันจะมีโอกาสได้เติมเต็ม และทำลายกำแพงภาษา
Just cracked it open (was rather intimidated and had a move since delivery) and it’s become my favorite solo Euro game. Once you know it, the solo upkeep just flows easily. No fiddly automa or anything.
Great stuff Mark (and CTG). Can't wait for this to arrive.
Thanks Mark! everytime i see more i just get more excited! looking forward to more content from you and Mr Grogan!
Did the courier let you know if the game was any good after they were done with it?
😂😂😂
Gameplay video when? :D
Give me a few weeks yet 😂
Demoed this at GenCon yesterday. And totally blown away by it. It lived up to my expectations. Great video too, there were several things that I now understand much better!
Thanks for watching and hope you had a great time at Gen Con.
Beautiful overview. Would love it if you could do a similar component overview video of the Hoplo Expansion content when you receive it :)
YESSSSSS so can not wait for this to arrive. Visited CTG last fall and the Prototype was set up, and even that was just beautiful.
Thanks Mark for taking the time to present such a thorough overview of the contents. This is my most anticipated game of the year, or in a long time for that matter. It looks like it has everything I love in a game.
One of my most anticipated. Love CTG and TES
This is my MOST anticipated game. Love all my CTG games and played more hours of Skyrim than I care to admit.
Great great review. Subscribed.
Thank you and thanks for watching 👍
I have played this game so much. I picked up the hunter's arsenal too and rotate my hunters. Probably played 40-50 hours.
There are a TON of tokens and a craft box helps a whole lot when it comes to setup and teardown. Rules-wise, there are a lot of terrain rules and icons you need to learn. Once you get past that, it is a very enjoyable game to play. It just requires a lot of time to learn. The villains and heroes are a lot of fun. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is really good, as well (pretty much a reskin). Fun review, like always!
Great review, thank you! Seems like more of a “beer and pretzels “ game that would have a lot of appeal for MHW lovers. The minis look fabulous
The minis are great and, yes - fans of the IP will probably love it.
@@NotBoredGamingCan confirm as a fan love it. Pre ordered the entirety of ice borne aswell
Awesome - really glad it hits the spot for you. 👍👍
Two questions I have about the solo rules. @18:30, you buy and sell some resources. Is that a rule specific to the solo game? I play-tested the solo game a few months ago, I I thought that occurred during the resolution phase of the game. Maybe I got that rule wrong then as well ;) Second question, @27:28, the automa takes the workbench action. You also pull your worker from your workbench. In the multiplayer game, these were independent of other players choosing to perform the action. Has that changed as well?
Another excellent job.
Thanks Paul. Hope you are enjoying the game
I feel you Mark with ISS Vanguard, from a game I gave strong 9 to a game with 5/10 after 30 hours. I ultimately hated planetary exploration but loved ship phase.
CUH-vin...
I just purchased this one at a very low prices (opened but unpunched). I believe there is a revised - better - rulebook on BGG. I got a French version, and so i printed the enlish one from there, and after having watched a few videos, the rulebook seemed perfectly fine. Haven't go it to the table yet though. But in any case, weather someone likes this one or not, Troyes is definitely worth playing, It shares some DNA with Black Angel, but it is a very different game.
Thanks for doing this. I do enjoy 20 Strong, but not sure the Tanglewoods theme is doing it for me. Need to play 20S TMB and 20S Hoplo more.
Hey Mark. Would you still suggest S&D as an essential purchase? I have base + undertow + age of tyranny and am considering this rather than getting the 40 days/waves packs
I think I'm gonna buy it, so I'll have something fun to do with my family.
Thanks Mark, glad you enjoyed it and appreciated the interactions we tried to bring to the fore of the solo game.
Thanks David, it all works so bloody well - a really great solo experience.
I am so excited about this game! Thank you for providing such great coverage on the solo mode!
Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed it 👍
Lol I liked the tag at the end of the video. This is an important video on the game. It gave me a pretty good idea of how the game would play solo. Though I think I might play this 2p more than solo, unlike Distilled. That one excells solo.
Thanks for this preview, Mark! Great coverage and explanations as well as insightful opinions. The timing is great as I'm currently trying to choose between backing this or Ada's Dream and the campaign for Ada's Dream will end before this one begins. I really like the look and feel of this one but wasn't sure how good the solo mode would be with blind bidding as the main mechanism. Sounds like they worked it out pretty well. Also, thanks for the heads up on Tom's playthrough. I'll look out for that one!
My pleasure and I hope it helps you make a decision. Ada’s Dream also looks great but I haven’t played it. Yeah, Tom’s videos are excellent and always a great way of getting a feel for a game .
Good to hear 2 of my projects made your shortlist, more coming soon!
You could always back at $1 for Ada's Dream because you'd still have full access to the same prices and bonuses afterwards. Also, you might want to think if others around you are more likely to have Luthier (seems like it will be huge), if you have Ada's Dream then it would be easier to borrow a copy of Luthier than Ada's.
@@CG_Hali Thank you! That is a great suggestion and what I ended up doing, actually. And since I'm the main purchaser in our group and I like collecting the games, too, I'd rather own the game I think I will enjoy more.
Sounds like you had a great time, and found some good games.
I am excited for Andromeda's Edge.
Really looking forward to seeing more Luthier! Shackleton's Base caught my attention since I love the theme. Thanks for the video!
Great video. I'm already covering Luthier, but also looking to cover Shackleton Base. You know I already love Agemonia :)
I’ve really fallen hard for Agemonia
Great photos of andromeda's edge, the hype can't be constrained! Fateforge: Chronicles of Kaan delivered in Australia this week. Already played a game with my SO on a weeknight, who usually only pays video games! It was a hit for it's simplicity to be unpacked, played, packed up in 75mins for a first play. Really excited to adventure some more in the world they've created.
Looking forward to the AE coverage!
Mutagen, Luthier, and Ada's Dream! When do I get my own preview ;)
Well, I’ve only played 1 (Luthier) - the others I’ve only seen 😉
Looking forward to Andromeda’s Edge - hopefully it fulfills in US before Christmas! Looking forward to your solo videos
I just shared a clip of Addromedea's Edge on the Facebook group. I feel like I could explode from the excitement level.😅😅😅
Look after our precious ;) Have fun!
Sorry - the person you are trying to reach is no longer available …………😜😂
I saw you 1st thing Saturday, you looked like you meant business 😂
😂😂 business first then party time
I'm looking forward to your coverage of Luthier! This just came onto my radar this past week and looks magnificent. I'm tempted to back when it goes live but it'll depend on how solid the solo mode is.
the solo mode is very well done!
age of comics was fun...despite my stink face
the winner came down to the last minute on AE...so did last place.
Ouch!! Hahaha!
if you cant tell...im live commenting this. Harmonies was fun. reminds me of life of the amazonia
agemonia was fun...shame its not painted
Are you playing Agemonia solo? How is this experience and do you have to play multiple heroes then? Thanks for the great video
Yes I am - with 2 heroes. It’s honestly great - and the asymmetry between the characters really works well.
new undaunted might be the first one i buy!!
