fenirob | The Golden Ages Board Game | Playthrough (2 Players) @fenirob | Uploaded June 2024 | Updated October 2024, 58 minutes ago.
Watch our playthrough of the Civ building board game, The Golden Ages, published by Stronghold Games.
RULES MISTAKES: The following were graciously pointed out by @Lupigi:
@34:30 - With Austria's power, at any time the player develops Metallurgy while this leader is in play then they would get Construction immediately. So here Jeff got screwed because we didn't read the * attached to the rule book's description of Austria. (Also note: Prussia, Turkey and England all have similar type powers).
@50:30 - India’s power does not let you take the immediate reward of the tech tile you develop. So I should not have gotten those 6 points.
In The Golden Ages, you lead your civilizations through history. The game lasts four different eras, during which you develop technologies, create fine arts, erect buildings, and build wonders. You'll send explorers to discover the continents, found cities in distant lands, and send your soldiers into battles.
The first player starting a Golden Age during an era chooses a "History Judgement" card that states the way all the players will score in that round. Each player who started a Golden Age continues taking money at his turns until all other players have passed.
There are many ways to score points — artists, the judgement of history, wonders, technologies, attacks, money, secret future technologies, etc. — as well as many different ways to achieve a victory. Will you succeed in evolving your civilization through history, overwhelming your opponents on the way to glory?
