Corrections:
When looting you ignore all rolled hits. So anything else that grants you extra hits will still occur.

You need to rule clearings in order to oppress them, so a mob token by itself won't do it.

During the Badgers' Live Off The Land step of their Evening, they only discard one warrior from every group with four or more, not down to four. This is clearly written on the board, I just goofed it.

Hey, great recap! Wish I was this concise. Just a few corrections for your Klingon subtitles.

4:34 When Looting you don't negate ALL your hits, just your rolled hits. Any type of extra hits are still counted (eg. Wrathful, Brutal Tactics, Defenseless enemy). This makes defenseless cardboard the best target for looters.

5:12 You don't just need a red piece, you need to also rule the clearing. So a mob token with nothing else doesn't oppress on its own since tokens don't count towards rule (unless you craft Soup Kitchens). It gets messy when you consider Mercenaries, I explain it in detail in a short.

Yes! Get more people into the best expansion yet!

ADSET alone elevates Root to an entire new level for a game that was already insanely good.

9:45 live off the land: You only discard ONE warrior over 4, not down to 4. So if you had 6 there, then one has to go to... Get more food? And now only 5 remain

Your videos are so clear and helpful! Thanks for posting these.

Oh and I thought the number in the bottom corner of the adset cards is the reach value? Could be totally wrong, though.

Hi. I have a question about the Keepers of Iron's 2nd action in the evening "Gather Retinue". If I were to shift one card in my retinue, am I still able to add any number of cards to the retinue as well? Or is it an exclusive choice where I can only pick one or the other?

Hello. I want to clarify something. If an enemy removes a relic, they keep it faced up when they place it in a forest of their choosing.
