In this video, we're going to learn how to play A Gest Of Robin Hood! If you have any comments or questions, please do not hesitate to post them in the YouTube comments below.
NOTICE: After this tutorial was recorded, an official update to the rules was presented by the designer: "5.1.1 Regular Events. All regular Events have two options that players may choose from when executing the Event, one unshaded and one shaded. Robin Hood may only choose the unshaded option and the Sheriff may only choose the shaded option."
NOTE: If Robin Hood is in Prison, the Swashbuckle Deed allows him to be placed *in* or adjacent to Nottingham. The video only indicates he may be placed adjacent.
NOTE: If you rob the Nottingham treasury, it also gives +1 Justice.
