Watch “ISS Vanguard | GameFound Preview | Mission Launch & Planetary Exploration Phase | Part #1,” a how-to-play guide for ISS Vanguard on BoardGameVideo.
Description provided by Rolling Solo on YouTube:
Rollers! It's time to head into the unknown! Join me for solo playthrough of the prototype for ISS Vanguard designed by Michał Oracz, Paweł Samborski, Krzysztof Piskorski, Marcin Świerkot and published by Awaken Realms. In this video I'll focus on the tail end of the Ship Book, covering the Mission Launch procedure. Then strap in as we prepare for Planetary Exploration, including a landing and exploration of Everstorm. I hope this helps you make an informed decision on the GameFound crowdfunding campaign. In the next video I will cover the Ship Book (Log) in full and the impacts after our journey together. Join me as this is humanity’s only shot at the stars!
ISS Vanguard Story Intro: https://cdn.static.gamefound.com/downloads/Layout_Version_KickstarterGift.pdf
FYI:
#1. The zipline has the lander symbol, so it would stay in the lander until used by any section.
#2. At 46:58 I didn't roll the injury die while attempting to remove the injury itself. I should have!
#3. Around 48:05 I resolved a success when it didn't match the icon.
#4. 35:40 This roll was actually a success for landing the 'Gathering' icon as the 'Target' icon for this Crewmember can be converted to a 'Gathering' icon.

"In 2028, we discovered data encoded in a small part of genetic code shared by all life on Earth and inherited from our Last Universal Common Ancestor. Every cell on our planet contained a starmap, pointing to a location within our arm of the galaxy.
It took another generation and the largest construction project in human history to create ISS Vanguard – our first ship capable of interstellar travel, based on the core of alien wreckage, found deep in Siberia.
Carrying the best crew and the most advanced technology Earth could muster, Vanguard reached the destination marked on the starmap. There, it discovered a dying red giant, encased in a millennia-old Dyson sphere our crew called the Eye of the Void.
Soon after our arrival, the Eye began to talk. It emitted a patchwork of old Earth’s transmissions, glued together into a peculiar message that urged us to go fast and claim our legacy, though it wasn’t clear what this legacy is or where to look for. It also provided us with a long list of coordinates to nearby star systems that included Earth.
We could not return home with nothing but questions. The message seemed too urgent, too tantalizing. Right now, we approach the first of the systems on the list we received in the Eye.
Now, looking at our first Landing crew preparing for Vanguard’s first landing mission, I’d
like to think we’re prepared for everything. Instead, I can’t shake the ominous feeling that afraid we only touched on the secrets our galaxy has in store."
