In this video I look at 10 Rules You Might Have Missed with the excellent game Village. I hope you enjoy the video and please like and subscribe for future videos.
Number 5 - It Takes a Family, you state you cannot take a harvest cube action if you don't have any family members on your board. You can take the action, removing the cube, but you don't get any grain if you don't have a family member on your farm. I know, I'm late to the party. Surprised no one else pointed this out!
This video was greatly appreciated. I laughed when the very first rule you mentioned was one that we actually had missed in our first play.....the rule that a coin can be used as a wild-card for any cube. These videos are AWESOME!!
Great video, thank you!! One clarification: A family member does not need to be in the craft building if you opt to pay influence cubes to acquire the good. Your description on "shadow of a man" is not clear in that regard. This clarification is on the back of the instruction booklet under the FAQs.
- 3:10 - Exactly! In craft buildings you dont need family members to get goods by paying influence cubes. You can use family members to get goods by "paying with time" (and you can do it for as many turns as you want as long as you keep them there alive), but you dont need your relatives there if you just want to spend cubes instead.
Excellent video, thanks for uploading. One comment (Tip 4): Villagers who have gone to church are not visible (because they should be in the bag), but your suggestion to keep them on top of the bag seems to confuse that a bit (not much - but a bit). You do clarify this, but visibility is no longer the strict rule.

Aren't you just taking the cube but not able to take the action?

Thanks for these comments that is exactly what I thought
Are you sure rule number 6 is correct. The option is to train a worker or pay the allotted bags/cubes for that resource.
Good point - thanks for the view and comment !

Really enjoy your rules videos - but please get you mic sorted out! Shame to spoil them with this one problem...
