  • Todays we look at the craziest game of Root ever! This match had so many twists and turns and I think you will really enjoy this Root Digital Playthrough. Today we are playing the Eyrie and are trying to pull off the Double Build Despot strategy. Will it work?

    As a cat main, feel so related, cats always act like a boss at the start of the game, and then with more and more build spots taken by others, just lose the momentum and be helpless to watch other factions to catch up and win.

      I think in the newest board game version, Cats can now rescue all lost cats of a battle with one card via field hospital? (print ver. 4) That likely helps with reconquering and -building. EDIT: Checked with my board game, indeed they do.

    When I play as Eyrie I always choose comander and get a bird build card. This seems to be a slower, but a more reliable way to play, as you expand slower, but if you play your cards right and balance battles with recruites and have your roosts sometimes destroyed you can win without going into turmoil at all. However if you get a turmoil you are in a solid position to regroup and get these last few point for a victory.

      ​@@LordoftheBoard Yeah, it feel tense because at 27:18 the vagabond cleared the wrong clearing and at 31:45 the cult goes for a risky agressive suicide crusade (4 vs 6 cats) leaving his garden undefended (only ambush).

      You are correct. Only the problem is that it is written “Marquise” De Cat with an e at the end. Which is pronounced (Maar Keez). Marquis is for a male and Marquise as it is written is a female. Making the Marquise de cat a she! Which is awesome

    @mistercookboom1899 Před 2 lety +1

    Playing the game more and more, Im starting to realize the vital flaw with the game. The gameplay is fantastic, everyone has a great time, all until one play gains the lead.
    Points in this game is a momentum system. If one player is flying in the lead its near impossible for the others to catch up. You can try to stop them, all working together, but in that situation the person in the lead loses that momentum, making it extremely difficult to regain footing.
    If you, Lord of the Root, (or anyone else here) has a solution to this flaw, please let me know.
    Or if you think im crazy and are simply having really bad games, feedback would be nice.
    Im not disappointed with the game at all still, if the point factor is removed from the game its a fun game,

    • @LordoftheBoard
      @LordoftheBoard  Před 2 lety +1

      I would disagree. This game is a perfect example of that. Cats were leading the majority of the game. They gained the point lead - but didn’t win.
      In root there are constantly 2 games being played. The game on the board. And the political game at the table. If you shoot up in points too fast players will all knock you down. Often players will attempt to stay second to seize the player in firsts position when they are taken down.
      Also as everyone is the same skill in the game it lends to much closer games. I would suggest watching games that are played by everyone at an equal skill level. You can find some on Guerric Samples Games. I’ve been on there a few times :)
