Thank you for doing another Mage Knight video. As always I love the attention that are put into the details making it easier to follow along. Here are the things I saw which can hopefully improve the video.
1. It was not clarified in the video, but the differences between Graveyard/Necropolis and Glade/Hidden Valley is that: A.) It is night time during combat just like dungeons/tombs. B.) You do not remove a wound at the end of your turn or get gold mana during the day after you clear out the enemies. You only get a black mana if it is night. C.) Conquering a graveyard gives you a spell instead of an artifact.
2. At 34:21, we used the -1 armor/-1 attack effect of Howl of the Pack. For Co-op skills in solo the second effect can only be used on the turn after the first effect is used.
3. We get 1 influence for the 1 shield token at the neutral city.
4. At 1:26:38, we paid 2 influence to activate the Heroes even though we do not have to. An assault is only when we need to pay movement to move into a location to attack.
5. At 1:33:48, we do get fire attack 4 against arcane immunity. Arcane immunity works on non-attack/block effects such as 'Destroy target', 'Target does not attack', 'Reduce target armor', and 'Target loses resistance/fortification'.
This is another excellent video. I can't express how much I appreciate Mage Knight content as it is my favorite game.
Thank you SO MUCH for all of this!!
1. Take a look at page 21 of the Ultimate Edition rulebook, it states "The Hidden Valley Location acts like a Magical Glade. The Move cost of the Hidden Valley is 2." So unless there is something else telling me it is not a normal Glade that is why I assumed it was one?
2. Holy Moly I did not know that at all! Thanks for that!
3. Did I do that wrong?
4. Oh doi!!
5. Thanks for confirming this one!! I will make notes!
@@OneStopCoopShop
Thanks for responding!
1. You are correct in how Hidden Valley and the glade works. #1 is to let the viewers know the differences between graveyards/necropolis vs glades/hidden valley. The video didn't have any graveyards and the necropolis was conquered on the last turn so the differences were never showcased.
3. I don't think the 1 influence from the city was applied. I could be wrong though because the amount of influence on that turn was a complete overkill anyways.
Got it! Thanks so much again for your incredible detailed review it helped make the video better so I appreciate it!!
"If you're still watching". My dude, we're not leaving. Seriously the most entertaining playthroughs on CZcams, and two mage knight ones back to back? Thank you for doing this, from the bottom of my heart. For playthroughs on these solo games you and Ricky are the gold standard, and I can't thank you two enough for keeping at it.
Well thank you so much!! Planning on one more Mage Knight coming soon a fan made variant where you include both Volkare and the avatars and the cities!! Have a great day!
This was amazing! Your play through reminded me why Mage Knight is still #1; it’s the gamers’ game.
I know right??!! It's amazing!!
At 1:39:31 I actually screamed 'You crazy bastard' at my computer screen. Absolutely loving these Mage Knight videos!
Buhahaha!!!
Wooooot ! In my humble opinion, this is the toughest scenario in the game to beat !! Your score on this one is legendary... Mage Knight Prince Colin rocks ! Hahaha !!! Seriously, thank you for this playthrough. If there was a book of records for Mage Knight, you'd be in it for sure, right beside King Ricky :)
Haha well I'm honored! I agree I feel like this scenario is brutal but completely enjoyable! Thanks so much for watching and commenting!!
Love it. More Mage Knight! Great video, and I really appreciate the editing you do on these as well.
Well thank you so much for watching! I love this game so much its kind of crazy haha!
Colin your play throughs are the best on the internet. You are pretty much my only content creator that I watch just for enjoyment, (I will watch others to learn game). Because of you I’ve gotten obsessed with LOTR LCG, Mage Knight, and Spirit Island.
Just wanted to let you know that you have at least 1 big fan.
Well you can't ask for a nicer comment than that! Thank you so much you made my day and I fully approve of all of your obsessions!! :) Have a wonderful rest of your week and thanks for watching and commenting!!
That was so much fun to watch! And the more I watch you play the more I learn. Can't wait to play myself
Yes!! Just what I like to hear!! I hope you get it out soon!
Holy Moly this was great! This was the first MK video I've watched and without reading any material or rules I was able to follow along and absolutely enjoy the video. Your clear and enjoyable VO work let your personality and the game shine thru while keeping the video engaging and the material presentation a blast. I think I might have to find this edition and snag it.
Well thanks so much!! Great to hear you enjoyed the playthrough and you've got it, this scenario is amazing I can't recommend it enough!!
Hey! Just chiming in to say how much I enjoy these Colin! Totally glued to the screen the whole time. You come across as such a nice fellow too. Thanks for making these!
Luke thanks so much for the kind words and for watching!
Wow....awesome playthrough of Mage Knight and a scenario that I hadn't seen played before. This was great to watch and I like the way you made the video with close up shots and talking through your strategy and narrated the whole playthrough. Definitely looking forward to watching your other MK videos and seeing if you can possibly continue your streak of rolling gold mana dice during the day.
Thanks so much for watching! This scenario is pretty awesome!!
Colin, your playthroughs are so enjoyable to watch. Thanks for the thoughtful commentary as well.
Thank you so much for watching and the wonderful comment! Made my day!
Great video again! Your last Mage Knight video inspired me to get the game and I was able to jump right into the first scenario with minimal rules checking since your video explain everything so clearly. I still suck at the game, but once I get a bit better I definitely want to try out this scenario. I noticed you're not afraid of getting wounds whereas I avoided fights if I couldn't block everything 100% which made me underpowered by the end of the game.
That's awesome!! Don't be afraid of wounds you can get rid of them in so many ways! And if you aren't leveling enough the cities will be too hard! Good luck my friend!
Colin, your Mage Knight (and LOTR) playthroughs are the best. Whenever I *want* to play a game, but lack the energy or brainpower, these playthroughs are the perfect alternative! I would love to see even more Mage Knight, as I understand that there are lots of different scenario types in some of the expansions (I only have Lost Legion).
Mark thanks so much for watching!! You are right there are different scenarios! I hope to play them all and I appreciate you watching the videos!!
Great job Colin. Wonderful to see more Mage Knight content. Keep it coming.
Thanks for watching!!
Colin, you make this game look effortless! Wow, 2 games of MK I watched in one day; a first for me. Thank you so much!! Your the man!
My pleasure Steve! Absolutely love playing it so appreciate you watching!!
You're becoming the Mage Knight King Colin, #1 source for learning the game on CZcams, dare I say overtaking Ricky Royal?! And the wide shot at the end with the terrain minis is amazing, I need to get me some of those!
Hahahahaaha no way Ricky is the king!! But I'll be the prince how about that haha!! Thanks for watching and yes I love love love that terrain it makes the game come alive on the table!
I hit the like button even before I started to watch the video. Your gameplay never let me down so far then I assume blindly that your YT content will be good.
Hahaha well thank you very much! I hope you enjoy it!!
You know your hero is awesome when she starts duel wielding siege weapons! lol
Well played Colin and thanks for another excellent Mage Knight playthrough!
The 3D tokens look fab, btw!
Thanks Paul! And yes I LOVE LOVE LOVE the 3d terrain! Appreciate you watching!
Yes! More Mage Knight with Colin is always great! I need more!
Thanks so much for watching!
These videos are great. You have convinced me that Mage Knight should be my next solo game to invest in.
Glad to help thanks for watching!!
So awesome that you always switch the Focus, i can not even imagine how much time editing you spent for your Videos
It might take a bit but the final production is worth it! Thanks for watching!!
I had trouble understanding how the Tezlak expansion worked and how difficult it looked, but, as always, your playthroughs show how simple the actual gameplay is. It’s also reassuring to see you kicking ass as a reminder that I can also be badass in MK.
Btw, I won a full cooperative game last night with my partner. I played, Norowas, had like five units, and I ended up killing ten city enemies myself. It’s the most powerful I’ve felt in this game so far :)
Hahahahaha! Love it!! Love all those units and how powerful they can be! Thanks for watching!
New scenario with upgrade components. Best play through channel IMO. So much fun as always. :)
Well thanks so much! Have a great day!
@@OneStopCoopShop Just don’t mind minor mistake Colin. The one who never make a mistake is the one who never played MK. This is the game the make your head hurt just to figure out how to move 2 tiles away hahaha
@@thapananawa8675 BUHAHAHAHAHA!! So true! Never has it felt so hard just to MOVE in a game as it is in Mage Knight :) Thanks so much for watching!!
Awesome video as always, you are my favorite board game content creator. Love your 3D minis as well. You painted them so well!
At 15:08 you were talking about getting knocked out, and you mistakenly said you get knocked out when your wounds equal your handsize. That's only true for wounds that you gain from combat. Previous wounds in your hand do not count towards this knockout value.
This video inspired me to try out this scenario last night and I barely won (score 120). I used Altem Mages to make all my attacks sieged and killed first avatar. Then I used Soul Harvester + sword of justice for 18 damage to help in the final battle. Artifacts are strong.
Niiicceeeeee yeah the 3d terrain is awesome and yes this scenario is hard but fun!!! I love artifacts!!
@@OneStopCoopShop Yea as I watched the video and I kept seeing you go for artifacts and I kept saying to myself "no way" but you did it. It was amazing, my favorite MK video playthough you did yet.
Is too good not too!! Thanks so much for watching!!
Amazing playthrough!!
Hope this puts the crtiticisms of Shades of Tesla to rest.
Shane!! Great to hear from you!!
Love this channel. Colin has the best laugh
Haha! Thanks Josh and appreciate you watching and commenting!!
I love these play throughs!!
Thanks for watching!!
Wow, another good playthrough, thank you Colin. All the swiftness thinking time you take make me wondering, how many Mage Knight have you played. All you move are perfectly executed. Nice one man.
I think I've played 25 times? Something like that? Also I edit out at least 3 hours of thinking haha!! Thanks for watching!
@@OneStopCoopShop 3 hours of thinking for 1.5 playing videos, that should be just the right ratios I think. Hahaha. Keep the video coming and I'll try to watch it all.
Love the Mage Knight content!
Thanks so much for watching!!
Honestly, if you made a side channel called "One Stop Mage Knight Shop", I would never get tired of it.
Hahahahaha!! That sounds like a great idea!!
Awesome video of MK as always
Thanks so much for watching and commenting!
Awesome, love it!
Glad you like it!
This is great. Waiting for the restock, of which I've preordered, so that I can get stuck in
It's worth it!!!
You know what's funny, is that I pretty much play Solo Conquest with a few Volkare returns thrown in, but that's it. That's all I need.
I get that but this one is fun Kevin you gotta try it!!
Omg you are so good at explaining this. The close up camera work is the best part, it helps so much. I appreciate the little notes as well, edit time for you is big i guess. Do you do the voice over after in post?
Thanks so much for watching!! All voices are done while recording, notes are while editing haha! Have a great day!
@@OneStopCoopShop you did a smooth transition with setting up the new hex, the voice over rolled sweet over the fade from no hex to full populated hex with minis and everything. No down time for the viewer. Great touch. 👌🏻
Thanks! That was the goal! I just try and remember the last thing I said haha!
Great video!!
Thanks for watching!!
Very cool.. love the MK plays…
Would love another ST:Frontiers one even more.. *hint hint* :D
It's coming on Sunday!!
Time to bust this out again!
Get that thing to the table!!! I know I will soon likely in February after my rush for work is done!
I see an MK playthrough, I hit like. Thanks!
Thanks so much for watching and hitting that like button!!
Great job, love the game when i can find the time. lol
That is the hard part!
Another great one!
I have 2 questions:
1) At 1:06:20 we combine an attack of 5 and an attack of 3 to deal 8 damage and bring down the avatar 2 levels. Are we allowed to do that or should we use 2 separate attacks of 4? I know you can pool enemies together to attack them, merging them into a single enemy that has all the attributes of both.
2) At 1:27:15 we gain 2 Artifacts. I've always seen that as 2 separate gains so I would draw 2 keep 1, then draw 2 keep 1 again. I've never done draw n+1 keep n
Thanks so much for these playthroughs, they are wonderful!
You can pool the attack together and confirmed whenever you gain more than 1 artifact your draw all of them at one time plus 1 and choose!
So funny, I can cruise thru a complex GMT wargame no problem but this game still goes just over my head.
That's crazy I'm just the other way around haha!! To each their own right?
@@OneStopCoopShop grew up playing games like NATO and Star Fleet Battles. Cloudspire and Too Many Bones are my breakout-from-wargames games!
Great choice!!!
As a long time MK fan, I never did pick up Tezla but this scenario looked like so much fun. Great to have a scenario that can be focused around gaining artifacts as I tend to only see anywhere from 0-2 in most games. Thanks for another incredible play through, Colin!
Random unrelated question. Assuming you purchased it of course, would you consider another Anachrony play through with Fractures of Time/Chronossus? There doesn’t seem to be any post release solo play throughs on CZcams as far as I can find and your last one was so fun to watch!
Thanks Jason and yes!!! The artifacts are so much fun its crazy! I think this is my all time favorite scenario right now, the avatars feel like really good challenges.
As for anachrony I did not pick it up actually but now you are tempting me! I might see if there are any on the second hand market!
@@OneStopCoopShop you wouldn’t regret it! Makes an all ready awesome game quite a bit more interesting. I just played my first solo game of it the other night and had a great time.
Well I'm intrigued!! Thanks for spending my money!
@@OneStopCoopShop it’s on sale on Gamenerdz for 24 bucks right now. Bet it’ll be gone fast! It’s not available anywhere else I know of right now!
Oh awesome thanks for letting us know!!
Really enjoyed watching these, any plans for more Mage vids?
It's when not if :) I actually am planning one very soon! Probably within the next month! Thanks so much for watching Sam!!
Oh Colin! What have you done!? I already own Star Trek: Frontiers with the Khan expansion... but after this SECOND amazing video I just...broke...down... and made a trade for Mage Knight and the Lost Legion expansion so that I could try out the "original" as well. Since MK has more expansions than its Star Trek cousin which would you say are the best expansions or the order in which you should get them if this is the game for you?
Hi Erik!! I'm so glad you have both!! I actually have a Khan playthrough next week! As for expansions I think what you have is perfect. Mage knight and Lost Legion is all you need for now. When you get tired of that Tesla will give you this scenario and a few other goodies! But I think you'll be set with regular mage knight and lost legion!
Hi Colin, thanks for the great concise, well explained and perfect rate of speech video.
I have a question, in your solo playthrough:Solo Conquest | With Colin, you mention at the end not wanting to get the expansion but in this video you have it. What happened:)? Which do you recommend buying? Thanks
Oh good question! I ended up selling my version and got the ultimate which had everything. So it's all about how often you'll play. Lost legion is a must all others you don't need unless you play often! Hope that helps!!
@@OneStopCoopShop thanks! keep up the good work!
Thank you for watching!!
Walks into healing glade
Enemy: we see you!
Player: not till next turn to dont!
Hahaha! I know kind of weird. Like the shrines and dungeons and temples!
@@OneStopCoopShop it's like John Cena: You no see me!
Hahahah!!!!
@@freakyzed8467 lol
Woohoo 🥳!!!!
Whoot!!
I finally gave in and ordered UE!
Yessssssss!! Solid choice!
This is my weekend viewing sorted, thank you Colin! I need to break this out again... My collection is changing to big board games (Mageknight, Gloomhaven, Gaia Project etc) and smaller games only (7 Wonders Duel, After the Virus, The Bloody Inn etc), no room for the middle of the road games! Hoping to add Cloudspire and Hoplo Victorum next year when they deliver. Have you tried Cloudspire or is that a Mike only game >_<
All the best
Yes you do! This is one that every time I pull it out, I wonder why I need other games hahaha! It is so much fun and hits me in the adventure and puzzle spot, not to mention you feel so clever when you make moves in this game! As for Cloudspire I have yet to play it, that is a Mike game. Enjoy my friend and as always thanks for watching!!
Cloudspire is one of the shining jewels in my collection. Spendy but I have easily gotten my money's worth. You won't be disappointed, especially if you like the higher quality production games that hold a special spot for me.
Nice!!
@@freakyzed8467 thanks, I was having an internal debate between Cloudspire and TMB, I think CP is ahead!
@@jackrutter9797 different playstyles but both are SUPER shiny. Too Many Bones tells the better internal story and is more character driven but Cloudspire is the better casual beer and pretzels game imo. Both are wonderful!
Where are these tiles from? The ground tiles i mean the mountain the real Tower and so on? Did you 3d printing? Or is it some sort of Upgrade Kit?
Please Tell me thanks :*
Check the description the info is there!
I'm pretty sure you can only use explosive bolt during combat. It doesn't have the ''special card'' symbol
Thanks!
More please.
I just posted one a week or so ago!
Dude I want those mountains and keeps… where can I buy those or print them?
Just search on Etsy you will find them!!
When combat against enemy with assassination you can't assign damage to your unit.. but can you add block value with your unit block ability? thanks
For sure! Just can't assign damage to your unit!
Where did you get the building minis? (Keep, mage tower, mines etc…)
It's in the description! From etsy!
Wow! The terrain cost more than the game.
You don't have to buy everything! But yes it's not cheap sadly!
@@OneStopCoopShop I would rather spend the money on another game or 2
At 54:13 you could have just played Diplomacy on its own t gain block 2, right?
Yup if I had read the card HAHA!
35:07 Was that correct? the scull means double damage, so seems like that was not successful block.. do I miss anything ?
Double damage IF NOT blocked. Swiftness is what you are thinking of!
@@OneStopCoopShop ah, missing bits all the time, thanks
It's so easy to do that!!
Where did you get that terrain? Looks nice.
Nevermind, see that you put it in the description. Thanks.
No problem I love it!!
When it says in the solo section: non city core tiles: 2(DC and Elementalist leader tiles) does that mean that there are 2 map core non city tiles AND the faction dials or only the 2 faction dials
It is poorly worded! You get 2 non city core tiles plus the faction leader tokens!
@@OneStopCoopShop I tried a fanmade scenario called war of four, combines volkare with life and death
Ok I gotta look that up! Do you have a link?
@@OneStopCoopShop I’m pretty sure CZcams deleted my comment because it has a link (I can’t see it). Just search up mage knight war of four and it’s the first thing that comes up.
@@amansparekh Perfect will do! Yeah sometimes CZcams deletes comments with links sorry about that!
At 1:26:09 the Guardian Golems are physical resistent, didn't you have to reduce 3 damage first and then only spend 7 block?
You can use them to take a hit then activate them. You have to choose one or the other. If I let him take the hit he would get wounded. Activating him for his block two was better!
@@OneStopCoopShop Yeah you're right! Awesome video! I order UE for the extension even if I have the basic game. I will start this campaign today. My no 1 game by far!
That is awesome!! Enjoy it!!
Wait, istn't this the Mage Knight hating podcast? Why I never! :P Joking Aside when will we have a family feud 2v2 Podcast episode on MK? :)
Wait what?? Who hates mage knight on one stop?? Cause we know they are wrong ha!! You just tell me and I'll talk with them!!
@@OneStopCoopShop Well Steve had it as only 39 and Petere as only 54 on their coop game's list. Other's must really hate it . :P (Yes, I know it's because you all believe falsely that it's better solo than coop, I'm just joking :D ;) :P )
Hahaha!! That's right! I think it might be amazing coop if I had that time to play with people!
@@OneStopCoopShop I personally lack people, not time. :( But seriously, it's weird that the podcast doesn't have an episode on a game that was number one game for solo for many years and is now number 2. I understand the reason, but still...
I think I did a comparison pod between this and frontiers.....
Please somebody tell me. Do the enemies in a magical Glade have opportunity attack?
I'm not sure what that even is. So I'd say no!
@@OneStopCoopShop I mean Provoke, hehehehee
Ahhhh! Yup confirm did not provoke!
@@OneStopCoopShop sorry I am new to this expansion. If you use a ice/fire shard to add ice/fire element to attack/block to an existing elemental attack... Does It becones cold fire?
That is a good question and I don't actually know that one!!
How come the dragons are not fighting you even though you are adjacent to them?
They only fight you if you move from an adjacent space to another adjacent space. That's how rampaging enemies work!
@@OneStopCoopShop Omg thank you for your swift reply. I have started playing this game and I wanted to learn how to play so I have been binging your videos. No wonder I find the game very hard dealing with dragons at the same time with city enemies. Thank you.
Im wrong or You ignore ice/fire/phisics armor of fraction leaders?
I'm not sure what you are asking?
@@OneStopCoopShop For example at 1:06:31 You attack with Catapults - 5 siege ice atack, and enemy have Ice defense what means your ice atack should be half-hearted.
oh. or im wrong, he have always the same armor at each level? i mean the whole fight he have armor 4 and fire resist? (Level 6).
I played different way :D Each time i consider next level armor.
@@Owczymon Ahh yeah in one attack you use the SAME stats. If I had not defeated him in one attack the next time I faced him his stats would have been different. Thanks for watching!
1:30:18 not playing the banner?
Apparently not!
@@OneStopCoopShop You destroyed it to great effect later! My bad. Great play through!
Thanks so much for watching!
You still play this game?
All the time!!
My friend that is awesome. I have so many games and this is the only one I keep going back too.
It's so good isn't it??!!
Thanks for the Video. At czcams.com/video/QlvenoERKCM/video.html, I don't think the heroes needed to be activated by influence. This is just needed when entering fortified sites or to attack other players.
You've got it thanks for that! I have placed a subtitle so future viewers will know thanks!
