- we are proud and thrilled to announce a new line of expansion for you for detective written and designed by the best storytellers in the industry robbed of you pandemic legacy and Mike's a linker Pathfinder this will be a standalone case is a one case you can save your friends not campaign not something you have to devote the whole crew for that some of the weeks
- I love the name of this I love it Imperial settlers rolling right it leaves nothing to the imagination you know exactly what the theme is you know exactly the time for game of it it is it's like so blunt that it's perfect
- the fact that you can sit down and this this is true the example that they use with monolith arena is a fantastic idea because I can totally see sitting there and and asking a question hey how does this unit work and I'll explain to you how that unit works so I think that's a fantastic idea
- I personally I like it when publishers put out less games cuz you could put more focus on those games
- I was honestly surprised honestly surprised that he didn't have a video montage I may be looking at a portal through the years some games they released early on pictures of them early in the year so I'm really surprised that he didn't put that that together maybe on his youtube channel maybe the eventually he'll do that in the future

Quotes (from this video)
- what is it about miniatures and more games they get people excited
- for me it helps when I can see a 3d representation of the world that I'm playing in some ice the art on the car door in the rules and actual physical form a helps me get more engaged with them
- also I love toys and ever since I was a kid I enjoy playing with toy figures
- well now I can play with my toy figures in the board games which just helps spark imagination
- classic board game components such as meeples and cubes just can't create that same experience
- don't be thinking miniatures make a game good while more and more games are incorporating miniatures that doesn't make the gameplay better
- adding nice miniatures to a game just makes it look more exciting on the table they add a tactile and visual element to the game that you don't get with meeples or cubes and helps open up your imagination to the world that you're playing in
