Watch “ISS Vanguard | Prototype 2.0 | What's Changed?,” a board game unboxing for ISS Vanguard from Rolling Solo on BoardGameVideo.

Description provided by Rolling Solo on YouTube:

Rolling Solo Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/RollingSolo Rollers! It's always fun to revisit a game I've covered in the past and ISS Vanguard was certainly one for the books! ISS Vanguard is designed by Michał Oracz, Paweł Samborski, Krzysztof Piskorski, Marcin Świerkot and published by Awaken Realms. In this video we're going to focus on what's changed in prototype 2.0. As mentioned in the video, if you're interested in seeing more of the game in action, let me know by liking the video and commenting. Your voice matters! Hope you enjoy my friends :D ISS Vanguard GameFound (Late Backer): https://gamefound.com/projects/awaken-realms/iss-vanguard#/ ISS Vanguard Kickstarter Preview Series: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLOF3i9E9lfiYTtoeedIJa-SWHY3Vt8E9- Disclaimer: Everything shown in the video is in prototype form (not final) and is subject to change. Intro 0:00 Overview & Community Question! 1:08 New & Expanded Dice Play 2:56 New Types of Rolls 3:27 Planet Board Upgrades 4:33 Colour Blind & General Readability Improvements 5:43 Planetary Global Conditions 6:45 New Planets, Story & Artwork 8:11 New Starting Experience 9:10 Revised Ship Book 10:25 Leads in a Bag 13:12 Further Developed Threats 14:17 Smaller Fixes, Fine Tuning, De-Cluttering and Quality of Life Upgrades 14:54 Conclusion & Community Question! 16:46 Rolling Solo Producers 18:02 FYI: Extra info from the designer about my 1/3 the campaign mention . “That's only about 1/3 of the core box campaign - maybe even less, depending on how you count 🙂 To be more precise: one playthrough of the core box will require 10-12 Planetary Explorations. The core box will contain 24 Planetary Explorations - some are required, some optional, and some represent alternative paths, so you won't see them all in one playthrough. This box contains 5 Planetary Explorations, of which 4 are mandatory to progress the campaign. This means that after finishing the content of this box, players will still need a minimum 6-8 Explorations to finish their campaign. That's where '1/3' came from. As for expansions - the expansion campaigns are completely separate, they have different starts and different stories, and each of them will bring a bunch of new planets.” "ISS Vanguard is a 1-4 player co-operative, campaign Board Game. It will bring players right into epic Sci-Fi adventure, as they will play as 4 sections (security, recon, science, engineering) onboard the first human ship with the possibility to reach outer space. Campaign will introduce the unique story written by Krzysztof Piskorski (Tainted Grail) full of hard player choices, twists and branching storylines. Gameplay is divided into 2 main stages: Ship phase and landing on planets. During the Ship phase, players will manage their ship (binder with printed sleeves), where every section will have to make gameplay decisions. Then, you will prepare your crew for landing on the next planet, in search of answers to humanity's biggest questions. Together you will pick lander and customize it with modules, then each section will choose a crew member to take on a mission ( more experienced crew members will have better ranks ), deck-build skills deck, take equipment and choose dices for his character. The game will come with over 100 different Crew members, each with unique characteristics. During all phases of the games players will be directed to Log-book, consisting story encounters, often written in the form of action-packed dialogues between the characters." *Join the solo discussion in our Facebook Group and Discord communities:* https://www.facebook.com/groups/330345337770347/ https://discord.com/invite/c5HQrcK *Media Inquiries: rollingsologamer@gmail.com* Want to support the channel?

About ISS Vanguard, from BoardGameGeek:

ISS Vanguard is a co-operative campaign Game. It brings players into epic Sci-Fi adventure, as they play as 4 sections (security, recon, science, engineering) onboard the first human ship with the potential to reach outer space. The campaign introduces a unique story full of hard player choices, twists and branching storylines. The game comes with over 100 different Crew members, each with unique characteristics. A game session takes you through a Ship Management phase - in which you choose your destination for your ship then research technologies, produce equipment, recruit crewmembers and resolve situations - and then a Planetary Exploration phase. During Planetary Exploration, players complete a daring landing procedure with your Lander, explore the planet for information or resources, fighting back a barrage of threats as well as a running timer of supplies depletion before you have to run back to the Lander to lift off back to ISS Vanguard. What follows is the remainder of the Ship Management phase, when players unload discoveries and resources from the Lander, heal or memorialize crewmembers, take apart the game board and record changes to the planet you've just explored, preserving its status for future games. The Ship Management phase allows players to make strategic decisions as to their resources and a way forward in the unknown galaxy chasing the mystery encoded in human's DNA. The Planetary Exploration draws the focus to the tactical, as players decide on cards, dice, crewmembers and equipment to bring to fulfill dice checks on the planet's Places of Interest. The players also decide which of the variety of specialized Landers they want to use and how to outfit their Lander for the perilous descent into the chosen planet's atmosphere (or lack thereof). Throughout the game, the narrative system relies on a web of structured and linked Mission Logs, often snippets of journal entries or dialogue, to provide gameplay choices and storyline information as well as keep track of progress throughout the universe. The goal is to survive your missions and complete the campaign.
