Hey Everybody! Today Paulo Runs Through "Rahdo's Goofs"
If you find Goofs I didn’t notice Please leave Timestamps :)
Thank You
0:26 3 Quarry sites are randomly selected but have to be placed on the Coast spots, not in the middle of the board
6:55 Since it's only Houses that Mine Marble, Richard will get 4 Marble from that Mine, not 5
7:26 Forgot to pay the 2 Marble for building a House on the Forest
9:34 She made 11 Marble but she only received 6! :p
26:21 Richard just placed his second Purple cube... he had already placed the one for doing an action now and it was build a House and a Square, so he spent one worker more and built less

At 0:25 already goofed. At setup the three random quarries should be placed at random quarry fields at the coast. So the quarry tiles 20 and 32 are placed wrong.

[@Aspoooonful]

Hellas, Akrotiri, Santorini, Cyclades, I'm a sucker for greco-games. Could you make a top ten list of greek or mythology games? :bd

Elysium

[@stoney997]

At around the 20:00 mark, shouldn't Jen have had the option to build a palace?

[@hannibal2208]

Indeed, as Richard said at 19:36, Jen would copy his action... but unfortunately, she forgot about it... :D

[@caseymac3944]

At 25:30, Jen should have taken the first player marker.

[@reneraps6313]

There is no first player marker (token) in this game.
The rules say: "The player whose marker is located below one of the temple building spaces on the action track will be the starting player in the next round. His marker then returns to the “0” space on the scoring track."
ALL locations where you place the markers at the beginning and during the game are marked with "0".
Since Rahdo was starting player in the first round, his marker was at the left position. In the second round, Jen is starting player so at 24:45 Rahdo puts Jen's marker in the left position.
So there is no mistake.
The rulebook does not say wich location (most left or most right) is starting player's position. You have to decide.
It would have been clearer if the setup example on page 2 had mentioned either "Red is starting player" or "Blue is starting player".

9:31 "Jen just made 11 marble" - but Richard only gives 6 to her ;)

[@PauloRenato23]

noted... thanks :)

[@knehren]

15:45 Shouldn't the oldest quarry be closed, now?

[@hannibal2208]

No, the oldest only has to be closed, if a new one is created, but all 4 tiles were placed on old quarries.

[@dabearz27]

And here I thought this was a new version of the Kosmos 2p game. Oh well...

[@asmanpeter]

My thought exactly. I think Hellas is Greek for Greece, so it was probably just a matter of time until another company came up with a third game (Playful also had one about 10 years ago) that had the same name.

[@69robtaylor]

hmmm,I had some interest in this game for Essen.
glad you've done this run through.
I think I'm more interested in stefan dorra's other game meduris.

[@GreekPackDragon]

hel- LAS. Accent on the second syllable.

[@rahdo]

you're suggesting i put the wrong emPHASIS on the wrong syLABLE? :)
