"not written too well"?
I'm pretty sure the rulebook was written by Tzeentch himself in an effort to drive the reader insane!
Played 4 times with my brother (his game) and won once. overwhelmed, he had 1 dude left, I had none; level 4 was the activate and roll a die to either insta-win or insta-die. So damn tense. Most tense I've ever felt playing card game. When he rolled and we won it was such a relief. This game is really fun. As others have said it seemed really complex at first but after a few turns everything falls into place. Well worth buying.
Watching this video in 2016 and for some reason I can't quite put my finger on, Tom looks hella good-looking in this video!
Played this three times yesterday. Won twice. Brothers Lorenzo and Claudio are heroes! In fact, we played with two players on the 3-player setup, with each of us controlling 3 squads. It's much better than the 2-player varient because you get to use all of the soldiers.
I think I played this game once in a club, it was a little complicated and I don't think we understood it until halfway through. But it was still pretty fun and worth a look if you like Warhammer.
Great game, I bought it and its one of our favourites now. Even my 6 year old daughter can play it. (after I explained the special powers/event card's text)
The original board game is a classic, easily the best board game GW ever wrote. But it's horribly expensive, and it's good to see an affordable version on with a solitaire variant.
I'll be getting Death Angel. I always considered buying Ghost Stories, but figured it would never get played. But with this game - ! Compactness, great theme and solitaire option. How perfect is that?!? Thanks for the review, Tom.
when you leavo a location, you kill one genestealer for each support token that has been put on the door( each time you activate the door it gets one support token), so it can be used to prevent genestealer follow you into the next locaion of the game
Thanks for the review Tom. I ordered Death Angel but it's not released yet in CSI website, still waiting for it to be shipped. Still waiting for more of the new releases like Castle Ravenloft, Heroes of Graxia, Lord of the Rings LCG (Co-op) and others!
Looks like fun. I'm gonna have to check it out. Thanks for the review, Tom.
As another person has already said, you really owe it to yourself to try the full game. It is a very tactical game that requires a lot of planing but also a lot of tactical flexibility. As far as 2 player games goes, Space hulk (3rd edition) is my favorite (1st edition out of the box is good, some of the addons removes a bit of the elegance from the game (they are still fun though), and 2nd edition feels a bit stripped).
I am considering buying this,
Thanks for the review and The Dice Tower Tom.
Love this game! Was one of the best I played at Gencon this year.
can anyone tell me what is the door card i dont understand what is its use?
@devaloki
Don't think I haven't considered buying Ghost Stories!
I just have to watch how many games I buy - so many games in my collection are not played.
Blood for the Blood god!!
Death Angel is still great.
With Conquest coming out, does it makes sense to buy this one?
Yes
The game is so great. Also the rules have some misunderstandings in it..
What about the expansions? Worth it?
@AFnord the "full" game? this is not a stripped down version of SH...
I love this game I'm a really big 40k geek!!!! I'd like to see some other army to go up against like the Orks!!!!!!
It's quite nice game. Great advantage is the compactnes. But a word of warning - it's really random.
I played it quite a lot, and I like it very much. But, oh, the rulebook...
Buying ! This rewiew make me buy this awesme game! Thanks Tom.
Death Angel in Tom's Collection 2010 - 2015 RIP. lol
+VideoGameTakeOut Was this in another review video? What'd he put in it's place?
+Chris Paladino It was on a segment on Board Game Breakfast. I can't remember the game that replaced it.
+VideoGameTakeOut Curious about which game he replaced it with. Do you recall which episode?
sorry I don't. I watched a bunch of them in a row to catch up so I can't remember which one it was in.
I'd be getting this if it was in stock anywhere....
I have this card game and the board game and I enjoy them both them same so the card game is defiantly with it
Thats his call sign so to speak.
He does it with all the games he reviews.
Its called "The Drop'
Try Ciaphas Cain novel series. Im sure it will make you smile, its Blackadder in wh40k universe :)
Thank you.
i love single player games !! : )
I agree that the rules were very badly written. But its' a fun game. It's an uphill battle trying to win, but IMHO the harder co-op games are the best ones.
@jonanjello
EDIT: yeah, I know Ghost Stories can be played solitaire, but I probably still wont' ever buy it.
Great game. Too bad it and the expansions are out of print. It's become a collector's item now.
Hector Godinez I just got it on Amazon yesterday. Played three games, lost three games. It’s great.
eisenhorn wants to smile but he cant :(
You are so right. The rulebook is terrible.
It wasn't released so much as escaped.
epic board game...but the rule book is horrible
FIRST
@800mls fail
ooof! that mustache , it only makes the video look even more dated lol
This game was a dissappointment, especially after all the hype. Usually I love co-operative games, but this one was so... lifeless. Also, this game is 90% of luck and sometimes way too easy to beat.
amazingly overrated game.
