Awesome video -- a great refresher. One quick note for anyone watching: when cubes get destroyed during combat, they actually go to the graveyard (bottom-right of your race's board), not straight to the income tracks. They'll stay there until your Cleanup phase (generating income) before finally returning back to the income track. A small detail I missed my first few playthroughs.
This is probably the best I've seen. Quick and straight to the point. I'll definitely be looking out for your videos if I need to learn a new game.
Danny V Thanks, I appreciate that.
I agree

Thanks ! That was all clear in my mind after this explanations, really efficient ! I will look for some of your other videos to discover/learn to play new games :D
I used to write computer documentation. While I generally haven't cared for video tutorials I found yours to be excellent. Well done!
Great quick-start, thank you!
Destroyed in battle population cubes go to the graveyard, not to the population track.
couldn't be explained better in 24 mins. great work. appreciated!!
This is an excellent explanation. Well done!
edifanobbonafide Thank you.
I completely agree with Danny V. Subscribing to your channel based on this video alone. Thank you and well done!
Thanks!
Excellent video!
Thank you very much. This IS the best i've seen. Great work. Greetings
The upgrade action part of the video is very misleading. You are able to put an upgrade onto any space of your ship's blueprint not only on a blank one!
Yep
@@reelwater7983 yes he should correct this.
Cheers, helped our game!
This video is amazing. Thanks.
Thanks, I'm glad it came in useful.
Looking to play this in a couple days, I'm still a bit unsure when colony ships can be used/refreshed? I understand you're saying they can be used anytime but when do they flip back up to ready status? You said it could be done during the Influence action and the Upkeep? I'm guessing you can use them, flip them back up and use them again on the same turn? Thanks for the vid!
If you select the Influence action, you can flip 2 colony ships face-up, in addition to moving influence discs if you like. Yes, you can use them again on the same turn. Thanks for watching!
Looks much better than what Dice Tower has said & better than my previous misconception of the upcoming second edition. Lol
Don't listen to Doce Tower. They just gripe about it because some silly sod said it was like TI4. Cry me a river. This game is awesome. Plus, the new version, whenever that will be, will bring down the house. Better than Ti4 imo.
Thanks :D

very good show how to play game, sub add.
Great velorganized explaining, topnotch. But for some of us , music is very distracting , just added info for brain to struggle with, although it is a calm soft piece of music. I hope you make more 😊
I like the starcraft sounding music lol
I bought the 2nd edition and I'm supposed by how ugly the first edition looks.
I found it impossible to follow your voice with the background music playing.
I have both Eclipse and Twilight Imperium, and oh my god - I really don't know who wants to play Eclipse while TI exists. It's beyond my reasoning.
You are lucky if you have a group who wants to play either game! I think each game has advantages, and Eclipse has more of a "euro" feel.
i wish i have TI but its too expensive.
Leverquin sell your clothes, your kid's toys, grandma's TV, sell your furniture and wedding porcelain, it's WORTH IT
i have no kids, grandmas and wedding porcelain :( and i am nudist :/
Leverquin in that case find a job, like everybody else :D
this game feels like whats left from the little lamb after few wolfs has been feasting on it !
i am not so demanding about games, its easy for some game to get 10 out of 10
theres no game i hate except those ones with politics, i hate politics !
i could play every game as well as this one, but eclipse feels poor and unfinished
would be nice to have some cards to play, like those in race for the galaxy which give military strength so i can conquer advanced planets by collecting cards which give military points instead of just buying upgrade and its done
also those development cards in the expansion were a must for the original game
eclipse was on the right way but it just needed more of the various gameplay, more fun
if you combine eclipse with race for the galaxy and starship troopers then you get amazing game
You should make a game like that then
