Andromeda's Edge Board Game "Overview Demo" (not a how to play or review video)

Watch “Andromeda's Edge Board Game "Overview Demo" (not a how to play or review video),” a how-to-play guide for Andromeda's Edge on BoardGameVideo.

Description provided by Board Game Revolution on YouTube:

Join Peter Vaughn (Cardboard Alchemy) and myself as we present a convention-style demo using a virtual space. We go through a planned sample turn to demonstrate how the game works in action. The goal of this video is to provide a brief, unbiased and unedited look at how the game plays to help decide if it’s a good fit for you and your group. Check it out live now on Gamefound: https://bit.ly/3sZ2h3r #BGRcommunity #Boardgames #Tabletop #boardgame #gameplay #andromedasEdge https://www.facebook.com/groups/boardgamerevolution Andromeda's Edge is a worker placement game in which your workers are upgradable starships, each with different special abilities. The gameboard features a modular hexagonal map, displaying regions of space with worker placement actions and sites for development. Your player board is a customizable starbase that allows you to build massive tableau engines by attaching various types of modules. Each player controls a unique faction with a subtly different way to play the game. On your turn, you will either launch a starship or regroup all of your starships. When you launch, you send one of your starships to a region of Andromeda, with your choices limited by your prior placements and the positions of other ships. After you resolve your action, a battle may occur depending on the locations of your opponents and dangerous extragalactic raiders. Battles use a quick and exciting dice mechanic, with rewards for winners, but with a variety of ways to mitigate or take advantage of battle losses. When you regroup, you’ll be able to make use of your tableau engine. This engine allows you to carry out a wide variety of actions, including generating energy, which allows you to carry out even more actions. As the game progresses, you will build a new civilization by constructing developments on planets: observatories, factories, finance centers, cities, and obelisks. You’ll advance on several tracks, portrayed as characters moving through exotic science fiction environments. You’ll trigger events that will score different tracks. The game ends when any player has reached the endgame scoring threshold, and then players total up a variety of scoring attributes. The player with the highest score wins the game!

About Andromeda's Edge, from BoardGameGeek:

Behold Andromeda's Edge: A dazzling, uncharted region of space on the edge of the Andromeda Galaxy. Littered with the modular debris of the precursor civilization, patrolled by malicious extragalactic raiders, and bordered by dense nebulae, The Edge is a last resort for the brave and foolhardy who seek a new life beyond the oppressive reach of the Lords of Unity. In this game, you lead a desperate faction seeking to build a new civilization on Andromeda's Edge. You begin with only a space station, a few ships, and a handful of resources. By carefully placing your ships, you will gather resources, claim moons, acquire modules to add to your station, populate planets, and build developments on them. You will battle opponents and compete with others to ascend the progress tracks: Science, Industry, Commerce, Civilization, and Supremacy. On your turn, you either launch a starship or return your ships to your station. Launching sends one of your starships to a region of Andromeda, either collecting resources from planetary systems or taking actions at Alliance Bases. If the region is occupied by your opponents or fearsome raiders, face off in a dice battle, with Supremacy on the line but where strategic manipulation can turn a loss into a reward. Returning to your station allows you to activate your engine, using the modules you've acquired to generate energy, gain resources, and carry out actions. Throughout the game you will build up your unique faction, building developments (Observatories, Factories, Spaceports, Cities, and Obelisks) and gaining station modules which move you up the progress tracks. Advancement on the tracks is rewarded both during mid-game events and at the conclusion, and is the key to victory.
