    GMT has 5 games in their catalogue that I just adore:
    1. Labyrinth: The War on Terror (with expansions)
    2. Twilight Struggle
    3. 1960: The Making of the President
    4. Dominant Species
    5. 1846: The Race for the Midwest
    Those are 5 masterpieces, I could play them all the time, anytime :D. 1960 is brilliant. And this was a PERFECT explanation for the game.

    @kroomiester Před 3 lety

    Do you find it easier, harder or the same to make videos on games with GMT style rulebooks? I find them more difficult to learn and teach from because the order rules appear in the rulebook is not often where those rules begin to make sense.

    • @WatchItPlayed
      @WatchItPlayed  Před 3 lety +2

      It depends on the title - this one, for example, is written more in the board game format we are used to seeing outside of war game rule books.

  • @DrPleishner
    @DrPleishner Před 2 lety

    I noticed a few deviations from the original first edition rules. The biggest one is that the ‘Issue Shift’ precedes the ‘Momentum awards’. I feel it gives too much value to the media support. If anyone played it both ways how does it change the balance?

    • @WatchItPlayed
      @WatchItPlayed  Před 2 lety

      I never played the original, but if I had to guess, they used the game play and years of outcomes from the first edition to influence any changes for this edition.

    • @michelecarbone2896
      @michelecarbone2896 Před 2 lety

      I think it makes media support more important and for good reasons. In the original is a bit of a waste to invest in media unless you are trying to defend a majority in crucial states. Another change is that cubes in media boxes give you double the amount of political capital during the election.
