Watch “Unboxing AEGIS Combining Robots For the First Time,” a how-to-play guide for AEGIS: Combining Robot Strategy Game from Zephyr Workshop on BoardGameVideo.
Description provided by Zephyr Workshop on YouTube:
(We forgot to look at the rule book. You'll figure it out though, you're smart! Basically all the rules of the game are in the green section in the middle, sandwiched between other sections, so while the book looks thick, it isn't really. You will also find that there are a bunch of reference cards in the game that you can access quickly.)

About AEGIS: Combining Robot Strategy Game, from BoardGameGeek:
Who doesn't love combining robots? A.E.G.I.S.: Combining Robot Strategy Game is the world's best combining robot tabletop game! Using themes from all your favorite giant mecha shows, it takes elements from popular tabletop wargames and streamlines them to make a game with the same depth of strategy without the high learning curve, distance measuring and long play times. Players build teams out of five robots to duke it out against other players' teams of five. It's designed to be easy to learn, affordable to buy, and quick to play, setting it apart from other strategy games.
There are five different classes of robot: Assault, Evasive, Guard, Intel and Support, and dozens of robots in each of those Classes. Each Class has its own way of playing and interacting with other bots, and you can make a team out of any five of them for an infinite amount of possible strategies!
The main mechanism of the game is teambuilding. Each robot on your team shares energy with each other, so moving and attacking with one will limit what the rest of your team can do during your turn. Certain compatible robots can combine into greater forms, too! If your team is built correctly, you can unite all five of your robots together to form something right out of your favorite giant robot cartoon!
