Website: givepausehobby.com Twitter: @GIVEPAUSEhobby Welcome back to the Game Garage for the Automated Alliance! (aka the angriest rabbit you'll ever come across) Once again, I'll walk you through the steps to implement one of the surprisingly true to form factions from Leder Games' Clockwork Expansion. As with all of them, you can play a solitaire game against the robots, or, if you have other humans to play with, you can play co-op against the clockwork(s), or throw one or more of them in to a competitive match to beef up the player count.

This was the first video in my reboot of the whole clockwork series, entitled ROOTbot Academy. Enjoy! https://youtu.be/3dP4pSm22u8 \ FLOWCHART \ And if you catch a glimpse of the inside of my Root box cover, my homemade Root faction flowchart (with major props to Tom Teaches for the better icons) is available to print and have with you at all times, in case you or other players are somewhat slow to choose a faction: https://boardgamegeek.com/filepage/196837/root-faction-flowchart
