Great video, I learned a lot. Can't wait to still ask "what do we do?" later on today.
Thank you! I hope it goes well. With betrayal there is usually that moment of “what do we do” :)
This is a great explanation! thans pete
Thank you so much. Enjoy Cities & Knights :)
Hi Lavinia, always very clear explanations. I'd like to see a video about that attractive Star Wars Rebellion box I always see in the background. Many thanks!
Hello! Star Wars Rebellion is in my list, but I’ve been sidetracked with other games :) thank you for the suggestion, I appreciate it.
@@GamesMadeEasyI'm looking forward to it 😀
Your explanation is the best I've seen.... The fact that you have a cat supervising.... EPIC!!!
Thank you so much, it’s very kind. It’s a lovely game. Peter is always keeping an eye on the game 😂
Michiiiiiiiiii que yindo !!!😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Gracias!
Excellent guide. The best I've found (and I look for a quite a few!). Thanks.
Thank you very much, I really appreciate the comment. I like this game, a lot of love went into the video :)
My cat's name is Peter
Haha :) I always knew I would meet someone who also has a cat named Peter. How does your Peter look like?
I just have something to say. I want to play with you and Peter on the table. ❤ thank you.
Aw thank you, that’s very kind :) I’m glad you enjoyed the video.
Hop
Yy
Thank you so much. I am at Origins in Columbus, Ohio and that was a fantastic video to tell me how to play and be excited about it.
You’re very welcome; I’m really glad it was useful. It’s a great game :) I’ve played it a lot. Enjoy ☺️
THANK YOU
Very welcome 🤗
Oh my goodness - this feels 100x more complicated than regular Catan. It’s a bit overwhelming!!
Yes, there’s a lot more rules than the base game. It’s fun though :)
How do you make your chits? What material?
Hi! The chits come with the expansion.
You can’t put a cat on screen and expect me to pay attention 😂
Haha, I know! But he loves it so much, Peter is there as soon as I start setting up and ready to be filmed 😂
Are these the deluxe pieces I'm seeing on the gameboard? They're super cool.
Hi! Yes, it’s the deluxe but we painted them :)
Great video, and I have a question for you: is it pronounced Settlers of C-ai-t-n or C-ah-t-ah-n?
Thank you! I think it’s the latter but I am nit 100% sure :)
I ❤ your shirt. It felt like it matched the game! 😂 This game sounds wonderful! Will have to check out!
Thank you! You are the first person to notice I sometimes match the shirts to the game I’m covering :) I enjoy this game a lot.
@@GamesMadeEasy ❤️
I’m thinking of getting another Catan expansion. I have E&P and Seafarers, so I’m wondering- C&K or T&B?
Oh that’s a hard choice - I think both are very good games. T&B offers a lot of different variants, so you get a lot for what you pay and some of the variants are very good. C&K is a solid game - I love the aspect of building a metropolis and having that pressure from the Barbarian attack.
I'm curious about this game but it seems very complicated.
There’s a lot of pieces to set up the game, it’s not necessarily complicated to play. I love it, and I’ve been enjoying the expansion recently.
It is so hard to understand...
I know, it was a hard video to explain and I wish now I had done it when I had more experience explaining games. It’s not an easy game to explain. I do hope it doesn’t put you off, it’s a lovely game :)
Hello and thank you very much, you've helped our house a lot with your videos and we have an argument we're trying to figure out. In the nasty variant of C&K, if a player chooses not to contribute with one of his active knights to the defence of the island, does said knight still lose his active status? Half of us argue the knight's status should remain intact since he didnt contribute in the defence, half of us argue all the active knights lose their active status, regardless of contribution or not. Is the nasty variant strictly political?
Wow! So so neat!!
Thank you! ☺️
Thank you, very good video! And nice paint job, too! 😊
Thank you so much, it’s very kind. Enjoy Dune :) it’s a great game!
Discovered andplayed this for the first time yesterday and im totally addicted
I was the same when I first played it :) it’s a great game. Enjoy ☺️
Great Catan videos! Thank you for the clarification. Much better than reading instructions haha
I’m glad it was useful, thank you! Enjoy Catan :)
You have a new subscriber! I absolutely LOVE your videos (ESPECIALLY Catan videos!!)
Thank you so much, it’s very kind. I love playing Catan :)
I absolutely adore your voice! It’s very soothing! Which Catan expansion do you recommend? I absolutely adore playing this game with my family!
Thank you so much! It’s so hard because I love a lot of them. But if I have to choose, I think it would be Seafarers.
Hi Lavinia, I really like this game, have it for a few years and come back regularly to it. So frenetic, really a heart pumping game. My minis are painted but not so good as yours , good job ! Kinge doesn't get played those many times, we never choose her... :) I use the APP for the timing, the sound helps for the "madness" eheheheheh
It’s so intense! I haven’t used the app, I must try it! Thank you! I’ve noticed it’s one of those sweet games that can get people who are not really into gaming, happy to play this game.
Great vid as always 😊
Thank you! Enjoy the expansion, it’s great!
Gurlfriend, I’m loving your necklace!
Haha! Thank you! I haven’t seen this video in a while but I knew exactly what necklace you were referring to :) I love it as well. It was a gift, made and bought in South Africa.
I was waiting for another video of you, great you did this game !!!
Aw thank you so much! It took longer than expected but I’m so glad we did it.
I'm impressed that the cat sat there politely for the whole video.
He always does 😂
He loves it when we record, as soon as we start setting up, he’s in the box 😊
Can I play all scenarios with 4 players?
Yes, all the scenarios can be played with 4 players. If you want to play 5-6 players you will need the base game and the seafarers extensions - 2 separate extensions.
You are a superb teacher (says a teacher).
Thank you so much, it’s very kind :)
Love your videos!
Thank you so much 😊
cute kitty 🥺
well presented really! , we've been playing it frequently but we came to a bit of a disagreement about a part of the ruling which I hope we can get some clarification on; If a player reveals the haunt during his turn - whether they become a traitor or not- does that player's turn get immediately skipped upon the haunt reveal? meaning that they can't use items or actions normally before passing the turn? because upon reading the "Play the haunt section" it said that the haunt starts from the player next to the traitor, but it doesn't clearly mention whether the current turn has to be immediately fort fitted as the haunt got revealed or not.
Hello! Thank you! Sorry for the delay in replying. The way I have played it is when the haunt is triggered, the haunt revealer looks at the haunt chart. That person does not complete their turn. But it’s an interesting point because the rule book does not specify - at least I couldn’t find it. I hope this helps :)
@@GamesMadeEasy No worries and thanks for your reply! we kinda used to treat the case as such until we once decided that since the rulebook doesn't specify that scenario we allow the explorer to finish their turn normally regardless of whether they were the traitor or not, it allowed for some interesting interactions honestly, would definitely give extra advantage to the more experienced players, and I would recommend you give it a try at some point and let me know what you think :)
That’s interesting, will definitely try it, thank you.
This game is amazing!!
Yes, I agree, it’s an awesome game. I also enjoy 7 wonders duel for a 2 player game.
👍👍👍
cataan
Hermoso gato 😻
Aw muchas gracias!
Yo tambien tenía uno, pero ya hace pasados 2 meses y medio que se me murió, lo extraño demasiado 😔😭
Hay que lo siento! Es tan doloroso. Mi perra de 15 años murió hace un mes y me ha dolido en el alma. Espero estés bien.
The simple structure of this video that shows card anatomy before play is genius. Your natural performance and effortless delivery certainly mask your enormous production effort. Thanks for the instruction that brought happiness and knowledge to my gaming group before our first play.
Thank you so much for your kind words and appreciating the work that goes into it. I hope the game went well :) I played yesterday with the expansion and I enjoyed it very much!
Thank you for this!!
You're so welcome! I’m glad it was useful :)
Wondering if you've done a video for the Barbarians Attack scenario. Watched your other video for T&B and at the end you mention the last 2 scenarios are more complex and that you'll make additional videos for them. Obviously I've found this one but couldn't find another by looking in the channels list. Did I miss it or did it not get made?
Hello! Sorry for the delay in replying. I thought I had done it but I think I did not. Thank you for highlighting it, I will look into making it.
Hay algo que nadie explica, y te pregunto... ¿Cuántos territorios puedo elegir para combatir en mi fase de combate? porque solo veo que usan un territorio para atacar varios, y veo otros que usan un territorio con otro y se saltaba otro territorio suyo para atacar otro adyacente, y en ningún manual menciona eso hasta donde yo se... es decir ¿si solo puedo elegir un territorio para atacar, o puedo elegir más durante mi fase? la verdad me aclararías muchas dudas
Can you pick up a ticket from the long destination deck?
Only at the start of the game when you distribute the destination tickets. After that, no -only the other tickets.
Muy buen video... eres muy detallista y explicas con mucha claridad... aquí tienes una nueva suscriptora!
Muchas gracias!!!
Oh my, you either are tiny or you have a giant Cat! Great information, thanks.
😛 he is super big and heavy! My pleasure, enjoy Dune :)
Please make this in spanish . Great Channrl love this ❤
