The Most Luxurious Board Game Table Ever! Rathskellers (The Phalanx) Review

This is The Phalanx by Rathskellers, the most luxurious board game table I've legit ever seen. It's a modern table with steel frames and beautiful wood. It's insanely functional, sleek, and flat-out amazing.

Here's my build for the table!
8 Players
Rustic Oak (No stain), with corrective marker
Metal Structure Color: Matte Dark Grey
Double Sided Velveteen, Teal/Black
8 Player Stations
Dice Tower Upgrade
Rathskellers Cleaning Brush
Widthwise Leaves
LED Lighting System
Rathskellers Gaming Lab Upgrade
Bluetooth Sound System
4 USB Charging Docks (8 USB Ports)
2 Wireless Charging Stations

*I was not asked to make this review video, but I was provided this table for Fire & Ice and then for my channel afterwards*

*Regardless, it's flat-out amazing (you can't deny the quality), and I wanted to give a special thank you to Rathskellers for all the work that went into this very special table.

Wow, this table is absolutely amazing. I have been lusting after a game table for a while. This is the pinnacle.

[karstenkutterer]

Someday I hope to buy one of these tables. Thanks for the rundown!

[AZUREPHOENIX]

I checked the website and the table is VERY pricey. With all the upgrades mentioned in the video, it's over €10k.

[real_mereghost]

I've got a 6 person one and it is AMAZING.

[markdandridge]

I can't believe it's been 10 months. I remember when you got it. Dwellings of Eldervale for the win!🐺🐺🐺

Welcome to the fold:) I love Rathskellers. They are have the perfect blend between craftmenship and customer satisfaction.

What is the packaging looking thing below the acrylic mat? Why is it there?

[mantchova]

Imagine having all of that and no friends to play

[ZipManGem]

Great video! I like the setup you have, as I am looking at tables for game nights for cards, board games. Would you ever start a twitch channel?
Keep it up!

[fufu]

I'm so confused why you're saying the speakers are really good. Matt Colville says in his review that they're really muffled.

[margaritoamargo]

How much was the table though? I priced one recently and it was close to $17k US. with similar options as you.

[TroubleBrewing]

Im interested in checking out that DM station in more detail, cant find a link. Is that using a spring to hold enough tension on top of the table?

[DrHeinzDoofenshmirtz]

Is it water resistant in between the table tops? Can water get in if you spill a glass of water for example?

[spiceandjoy]

Oh man, I should be asleep right now.. BUT A NEW VIDEO DROPPED 😎

[leosalcedo]

Great review! When playing scythe, are you able to play using the extended board, plus everyone's player mats?

[OCBoardGame]

This is a table I want but will never have lol 😅

[jcbamfield]

Hi Tim. As always, thank you for the great content.

Question. I have a gaming table but I’m debating a new one and obviously looked to Rathskellers. My issue with tables a lot of the time is the height. It just feels awkward to sit at and I feel I struggle to see the whole of the table because it’s so high up. I’m 5’8.

Any thoughts? I know it’s a random question 😅

[joshomgosh]

Hey Tim. I will also get the Phalanx without any stain like you. Thanks for your video, that helped a lot in the deciding process!

Maybe one question about the velveteen colors after using them for over a year: You said you would have also liked a lighter color. So if you could decide again, would you prefer to exchange one of your colors with a light grey? Do you get bored of the greenish or the black color more? I can also imagine that the different LED colors work better with neutral velveteen colors. Thanks for your opinion :)

What mic stand do you have for your tabletop mic? I really like it!
