Watch “How to play BOOM Patrol,” a how-to-play guide for BOOM! Patrol from JestaThaRogue on BoardGameVideo.

Description provided by JestaThaRogue on YouTube:

Learn how to play BOOM Patrol! This is a quick and comprehensive overview of the rules. I try to cover all the rules, including the latest errata at the time of recording and BGG FAQs, in as short an amount of time as possible. Of course, while still trying to remain clear. These videos are not rulebook replacements. They have 3 goals: 1 – As a refresher, if you haven’t played the game for a while and need a reminder of the rules 2 – For a brief overview of the game, if you’re going to play it for the first time 3 – As an alternative to a review-style video, to see if the game is for you Of course, before you leave, remember to like, share and subscribe. Also, comment if the video was helpful (or if you have constructive feedback) Jesta ThaRogue Website: https://www.jestatharogue.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jestatharogue Blue Sky: https://bsky.app/profile/jestatharogue.bsky.social Board Game Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/jestatharogue?sub_confirmation=1 BGG: https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/424002/boom-patrol #howtoplay #jestatharogue #boompatrol 00:00 - Intro 00:00 - Setup 02:44 - Phase 1 - Battle Plan 03:06 - Phase 2 - Combat 03:16 - Movement 03:54 - Captain's Orders! & Again! 04:18 - Firing 05:59 - Crushing & Ramming 06:54 - Glory & Medals 07:07 - Destroying a Tank & Wreckage 08:08 - Repair! & Hold Up! 08:31 - Out of Bounds 08:44 - Rattled!!

About BOOM! Patrol, from BoardGameGeek:

Hello and welcome to the BOOMburg Battle Arena where the most celebrated tank crews have assembled for an all-out battle for gold & glory. So get ready to crush buildings, grab those power-ups and make things go BOOM! Choose your celebrity tank Captain, like Jonesy Ninelives of Crew Tomcat or Rosie Rhino of the Charging Armored - then outsmart, outmaneuver, and outblast your rivals in the ultimate arena battle. BOOM Patrol is a competitive tank battle game that plays like a mash-up of Mario Kart and Battlebots. Whether you Medal - or get blown into next week comes down to your strategic and tactical decisions. All in a game that cares more about fun than precision. 'Cause if it looks close enough, it's close enough to crush with 30 tons of treads and armor! Featuring an intuitive and innovative movement system, programmed command cards, asymmetric tank captain abilities, and videogame-like logic, this is just a blast to play. And with the toy-etic cardboard tanks, you will find yourself making tank noises as they rumble across the arena and turn their turrets with a "TINK, TINK, TINK," before firing. -description from the publisher
