Description provided by Tabletop For One on YouTube:
In this video, I preview the solo mode for Forges of Ravenshire by Sam Stockton and published by B A Games. Forges of Ravenshire is a dice-placement, engine/tableau building game about being the best smith in Ravenshire. The copy I played is a prototype and will likely change in some ways before final production.
I was not paid, nor received anything in return for this video.

About Forges of Ravenshire, from BoardGameGeek:
Grab a hammer and some steel, it's time to forge! The Blacksmiths Guild of Ravenshire is in need of a new Forgemaster. You and your fellow smiths are competing to see who can make the most money and become the new Forgemaster.
Forges of Ravenshire is played over 4 seasons or rounds. Each season starts with the gathering phase where players will acquire contracts, recruit guild members, and gather resources. Players roll their dice workers and place one of them on an available location to gather resources. Then retrieve a different dice worker to gather even more resources. However, the various workers are from different guilds and when retrieved will activate the guilds you have invested in. All players will take turns placing one of their workers and retrieving another worker 3 times.
After the gathering phase is the production phase. Take those 3 dice workers you have taken and now place them on different areas of your forge to gather more resources, make charcoal or steel, and forge contracts to make money.
At the end of every season, check to see if any special titles have been earned. Titles bring prestige and hard-earned money.
Finally, roll your 3 dice workers again and prepare the county of Ravenshire for the next season.
