The King's Dilemma - Episode 1 - EARLY ACCESS
🕑 Added 2023-09-30 17:00:04 +0000 UTCHail To The NeRBs!
It’s time for a brand new series to kick off with early access to episode one of our first LEGACY game: The King’s Dilemma.
We’ve assembled a small council made up of big personalities, who are going to discuss and debate dilemmas affecting the Kingdom of Ankist. Their choices will decide the fate of the country! Will they do what is best for the masses or what benefits their own noble house the most? (No prizes for guessing which one most people go for)
As a legacy game, each session of the King’s Dilemma builds into the overall history of the nation, with the choices the player’s make shaping the present and probably coming back to bite them in future playthroughs. The winner at the end of the campaign will be house who has positioned themselves perfectly when the kingdom either prospers or falls to ruin. (No prizes for guessing which of these outcomes is most likely either)
We hope you enjoy it! Stick around because next month the series continues exclusively on Patreon!

N.B. As a Legacy game The King’s Dilemma has a long-form narrative running throughout so SPOILER ALERT! The game is also made to pose moral and ethical quandaries in a role-play environment, neither the game nor players endorse the topics discussed.

House ego loves being depressed so much that they caused a great depression.

I've played this game, beat it with my fellows in the aftermath of the pandemic. We played Wylio, Tork, and Olywn. I guarantee you folks, you will love this game. Happy sailing.

Dom, role playing as a tory version of little finger is all I need out of life. House Rules weeps o their halls.
Dennis Kruijt
Once a month for an estimated 14-15 sessions.
Marc Doohan
Great video! I wish it was more often than monthly though - weekly/fortnightly please!
Sean Furlong
Just in case I missed them saying saying, how often are episodes coming out?

This is a great game choice!

Loved watching this and I'm really looking forward to the rest of the series! I'd love to play it myself one day but I live in France and all my boardgames friends are French, but I'd need to play it with an English speaking group to really get the most out of it as I can't speak as spontaneously in French or follow fast flowing group discussions (that's a bit of a an accidental tongue twister there!). There's so many games that I don't get to play because of this :-(
Lindsay M.H.
Loved this and looking forward to seeing the different games in the campaign.
Luigi Scazzari
Back in the day, this game was pitched as Reins x Game of Thrones x Legacy, and it delivered! So glad you are playing it, at last. Spoiler alert, the dilemmas in the next sessions are going to be NOT for the faint of heart; slavery in comparison to what is coming next is pretty tame.

I've played the game, but never read the rulebook, and as I was watching I sat there thinking: "Were we doing it wrong, or are they?" And now I know the answer :-) But these legacy games can get very rules-heavy, and there is a learning-curve. I loved the video, and am looking forward to more.

Posting @timeman6789's (not my) comment from the youtube video here in hope that it's more likely for it to be seen: "Just a few thing mistakes that I noticed for the future since it is a Legacy game and may have effects for the future: If you pass, you choose to gather power or become the moderator. So if you become the moderator you don't gain the power as well. If the Leader token is held by a player on the losing side, the Leader token is immediately given to the player on the winning side who invested the most Power on their AYE/NAY card. If players of the winning side are tied, the ownership of the Leader token must be determined by the Moderator. So for example Ken wouldn’t have signed that card or got the coins, it would have passed to the other side. But still loved the video and looking forward to the rest as someone has played the game before!"

Sully has his Aye and Nay cards the other way round to everyone else and its making my eye twitch
K Dubz
I can't remember specifically where, but I'm pretty sure that I heard at least one of the guys say that they don't really like Betrayal, so I doubt it.
Jesse Ellis
Happy birthday.
Michael Wakeley
And on the next dilemma, the power should have stayed on the board as no one passed for power (Ken passed for moderator). Point being, taking moderator should be an actual choice rather than automatic for the first person to pass.

Find it hilarious, they keep screaming about the cactus... but it was a unanimous vote, with no naysayers.
Dradkyn
I mean all you have to do is scroll down on this page. They talked about it on a post.
Lewis Adams
Love legacy games! I really appreciate the Dom/Sully voting bloc. Great content!
Peter Rowen
So where are the 2 BotC games that we were promised for September?
Matteo Zappone
Love this!!
Niamh Murphy
Yaaaaaay
Mikael
This was amazing! I seriously love this and can't wait for the next episode.
Todd Bristow
My gaming group is currently playing this, so I'll have to wait till our game is over, but afterwards, I'm diving right into this!
Todd Bristow
Amazing! I always hope you'd dive into this one.
Leo Strongmane
I love Legacy games! They are always such a fun concept for me. The first time I played Risk Legacy I was hooked on the idea of permanency in board games.
Joshua Selig
Brilliant, does this mean that we will one day see NRB do Betrayal Legacy??? :)
Tyler Lane
Man, I absolutely love the idea of you guys doing legacy game series. I've got several sitting on the shelf untouched, so it'll be nice to experience some without having to set up game nights myself!
Amanda Neff
Best birthday present ever. This was my first legacy game and I cannot wait to watch y’all grapple with the drama like we did.
Will
When it says "Early Access", does that mean the fully edited version will be coming to the main youtube channel, at least for the first session? If so, I'll hold off and watch the edited version
Will
They likely had to scrap some BOTC videos with adam in them. Then re-record them, but have to scrap them again because they have Ben in them, and The Pandemonium Institute are no longer working with NRB due to community pressure. Understandable that they didn't have anything to show us, but I'm going to pause my membership until one comes out as that's the only thing I'm on this patreon for ^^'
Michael Wakeley
Just a note for future, if you pass for moderator, you don't get to share in the power that other passers get. At 22 minutes in this video, Sully should have got all three power because Holly got moderator
Colin Madden
Still no BOTC? Are we finished with it? Why is NRB ignoring all questions about it?
Tommy D
3 videos in just over a day. Color me spoiled
Kori
So excited for this! :)
Brendan Hurst
Very excited for this, one of my favorite Legacy games.
Harvey Holmes
Just wanted to say you’re absolutely smashing it with the content on here and the main channel. Obviously August was tricky but nice to see you come out swinging!
Thominatorx7
Thank You Team . Just made my day.
Tobias Wallbaum
I found that game always interesting but I doubt I have the patience and friends to play, so thanks to my favorite brits (and Terry) I just can watch you play
M Llanelly
So much content so quickly !! I can't keep up but I'll be damn sure to try! Thanks all for this, what a time for the channel !
Andrew Murphy
Well you're certainly spoiling us this week. Love it
Emil Harty
I've wanted to see a gameplay of King's Dilemma for a bit. Should be fun
