Quick-Piloting the Robot Riverfolk (RbA #8*)

Description provided by GIVEPAUSE hobby on YouTube:

We're back to this series-within-a-series for the first time in a year! As much as I love getting into the nitty-gritty of what makes these ROOTbots tick, after finishing the "big brother" episodes with the full teaches for each faction, I was inspired to try my hand at making short(er)-form videos demonstrating my thought process when I'm thinking through taking a clockwork faction's turn. In general, the CWE2 bots have a bit more under the hood to walk through (especially in the case of the otters!), so this isn't _quite_ as short as the average CWE1 episode, but still shorter than the full-on explainer! If you want more detail about the robo-otters...https://youtu.be/1ynNu4n-QgQ If you want info about the bots in general... https://youtu.be/3dP4pSm22u8 As always, I hope you enjoy the content and the games with the incredible Clockwork factions! ----------TIMESTAMPS… 0:00 - Greetings & Intro 2:10 - Background before the turn 4:08 - Let's begin! 11:44 - Wrap-up MY PLACES...

This was the first video in my reboot of the whole clockwork series, entitled ROOTbot Academy. Enjoy! https://youtu.be/3dP4pSm22u8 \ BETTER BOT PROJECT \ If you're interested in this or any of the other free-to-print BBP factions, head on over to Board Game Geek to get the most up-to-date files as well as read any discussions that might be taking place: https://boardgamegeek.com/thread/2068034 \ MY OTHER ROOT STUFF \ I've done enough weird stuff inspired by Root (see: made flowcharts, written a poem, sung parody songs, composed trumpet etudes...) that I figured it was high time I put them all in one spot for me to talk about as well as provide for download. Interested? Then have I got the post for YOU! http://givepausehobby.com/2022/11/11/when-love-extends-beyond-the-board/ MY THANK YOUs: MUSIC!
