  1. You guys mentioned that you had played the base game before and that you linked the video, however I can't seem to find it in the description. Just wanted to let you know/ i may just be blind lol

  2. Two nights ago I had a dream that my house got leveled by a tornado and Ares Expedition: Crisis was the only game from my collection that survived. It’s also the only game currently on my shelf of shame. And now, coincidentally enough, here comes your playthrough. I think my brain and/or the universe is telling me to play it.

  3. In original TfM, only blue cards provide ongoing effects, but I noticed Monique's green card that gives heat production per space tag was getting triggered over and over again… is this correct?

  4. Nice play through! When doing the standard actions are you not required to do the maximum amount possible? I.e if you have 16 heat you have to take the raise temperature action twice?

  5. Congratulations on the win, you two! As I recall in your co-op runthrough of the base game, you could not get Mars oxygenated. I am glad to see it was not a problem this time 🙂

  6. Hi guys – I really like the look of your gaming surface. Is this a gaming table or just a felt (?) fabric? Is it fixed to something on the back to avoid slipping/movement while playing?

  7. While watching this, I couldn't help wondering if allowing the crisis cards to hang around for a couple of turns might be a good idea. You had so much heat, that fixing the temperature seemed easy and would give you more TR, which you were struggling with. But I guess that would force you to play more action phases. I'll have to finally get it to the table to see how it works out!
