I'm organising a game of Oath this weekend and needed my dose of Oath because I'm stupidly excited. This channel was a nice surprise and I appreciate the camera work and attention to the rules :) Keep it up.

Ok, first of all: this Game is amazing. Im definitly getting it as soon as it is translated in Spanish

But added yo that: you guys make the BEST GAMEPLAY STREAMS out there, is just ashtonishing how easy is to follow the text on the cards, the display of coins and secrets and warbands, the different cameras that show every detail. Thanks!!!

P.D. I watched Episode 6 fist, and now Im back ready to see the full series!!

[cesarpim]

Loved it. You guys pull off a gameplay where everything is clear, we can follow every detail, you are thematically engaged, and you don't make too much distracting off-topic conversation as some groups do. 5 stars!

[matslarsson]

Would love to watch your campaign. It would help fill the cavernous hole in my soul caused by not getting to play my copy as much as I would like (i.e. every day of the week).

You actually can check the back of ALL the cards in the discard piles, you just can't check the front. So yes, you can actually check and count where exactly the vision is located. (9.4 of the Rule of Oath)

[BoxofDelights]

Super stuff! (just learning the game, so came here first!)

[Yught]

This was exactly the type of video I was searching for, thank you!

[futureaugraphy]

Watching this was an excellent way to prep for hosting my own first game of this. I really got a feel for the game and I'm glad you all kept so thorough in explaining everything.

[danielqcallahan]

I started playing this with my gaming group a few weeks ago. I didn’t really “get it” until watching this stream. You all are amazing at explaining what’s going on and why. Thanks!

[Terudon]

Campaign vote seems already strong, but I'll add mine to the pile just in case! Love to see some lore developing for returning powerful denizens or some chronicle molding chicanery.

[JustinLillich]

I would love to watch a campaign with your table!

[maxwellcrowe]

Beautifully explained. Please continue your campaign!

[FredzGreen]

Best presentation - rules explanation and playthrough of Oath - excited to see more of you playing Oath - big thumbs up!

[synterlu]

2:29:30 You can also negotiate a binding exchange of banners (and favour, secrets, etc) for citizenship (6.6.1), it doesn't have to be just relics.

[SamiPaju]

This is so good! I’ve had the game on my shelf for a couple months now without having had a chance to get it on the table, but watching the stream is the next best thing :)

[mikepictor]

Really good rules breakdown. I’ve looked at a few videos without really getting it, but now I kind of get it.

[jasonstone]

I have seen playthroughs of this game, but was eager to see you and your crew play it. Great video as always. I'd love to see a campaign.

[Crosbie]

Thank you. Hugely looking forward to the ongoing campaign.

[jesperstrandberg]

I would also like to see more of the chronicle!

[darrensmith]

I've been waiting for your playthrough and am very glad you’re doing a campaign.
