New Releases 14 April 2008

Ancient Enemies is the second monthly installment of 40 fixed cards for the A Clash of Arms expansion to the A Game of Thrones collectible card game, based on George R.R. Martin's bestselling Song of Ice and Fire saga. It contains 20 different never-before-seen cards designed to augment existing decks and add variety to the A Game of Thrones metagame.

This is not a standalone deck; a A Game of Thrones CCG starter set is required to play.

Each player is the owner of a water zoo. Each player tries to lure as many visitors as possible into his water zoo and earns points for the visitors that visit his zoo. To create a zoo that people want to visit, a player must collect animals. When a player’s water zoo is successful, he may want to expand it. When a player’s animal basins are full, he must place additional animals into his depot, which loses him points at game end. When a player makes skillful use of his coworkers, he can gain additional points. The player with most points wins.

A Guide to the Knights of the Underworld

Gifted by the Deathlords with the corrupted Essences of Solar Exalts, the Abyssal Exalted are perhaps the greatest extant threat to Creation and its Exalted defenders. Frozen at the brink of death and offered immense power in exchange for servitude to the Neverborn, these so called knights of death ride forth with one shared mission, to drag the world and all that lives into the Void at their masters’ behest. Will the Abyssals succeed at their abhorrent task, or will the faint echo of their lost lot as heroes drive them to redeem themselves and, just maybe, rejoin the ranks of the Sun’s Chosen?

Abyssals includes:

Rommel was designed by Dan Verssen and is the first game in our new "Field Commander" solitaire series of historical strategy board games. You get to take command of General Erwin Rommel's forces in 3 exciting WWII campaigns: France 1940, North Africa 1941, and D-Day 1944. An easy to use game system manages the Allied movement, combat, and reinforcements.

As your units win battles, their stats will increase.

Each campaign comes with a list of historical options. You can select any of these options to modify the campaign, and its difficulty level. This allows each campaign to be replayed many times and never be the same twice.

The game comes with "Career" rules that allow you to link the campaigns. The outcome of one campaign affects your start-up conditions for the next campaign.

Get ready for food!

A cheekily cheerful forest rally for 2 to 4 animal friends from 4 to 99.

The eager parent animals are looking for food. Who will help the hedgehog, the hare, the squirrel and the badger to take all the tidbits to their families? There are enough apples, mushrooms and berries for everyone, but the food is scattered far and wide and must be collected first. Watch out, be careful of the trees! Who keeps putting them in the way? Do not be put off; with a little bit of skill, you will manage to overcome all the obstacles. The player who is back with his or her family first and brings sufficient provisions for everyone is the winner. Let’s get going!

The hanging gardens were one of the 7 wonders of the ancient world, as all history courses teach. But, did they actually exist? Nothing remains of their reported splendor, which was built for the eyes of Amyitis.

Without an exact reference to follow, the 2-4 players will re-establish the hanging gardens according to their own tastes.

Card follows card with magnificent buildings, sparkling fountains, and exotic plants as the players work to rebuild the legendary gardens.

In the end, the queen will be pleasd and rewards the victory palm to the player whose work on the gardens most impresses her highness.

The Growing Hunger Expansion introduces new game mechanics and three exciting new Scenarios to challenge players as well as a two player mini-game. Take control of four new Heroes, each with a highly-detailed plastic miniature as well as seven new Red Zombies for use as Plague Carriers, Grave Dead, or to increase the Zombie Horde. New modular game board sections expand the town and feature unique buildings such as the Supermarket, Library, and Antique Shop. New game cards give Zombies a chance to steal weapons from the Heroes and add powerful Double-Handed weapons to the Heroes’ arsenal, such as Garden Shears and the Fence Post. Also included are two new full color, die-cut counter sheets adding Free Search Markers for the Heroes as well as many more fun ideas to the Last Night on Earth toolbox for limitless use with official web content or creating your own new Scenarios.

New Special Edition Game Soundtrack for Last Night on Earth features 16 tracks of music created specifically for the game. This includes the entire original soundtrack plus five new songs inspired by upcoming expansions. The CD features new artwork and liner notes from the composer and TWO EXCLUSIVE NEW GAME CARDS only available with the Special Edition Soundtrack. This is a must-have for fans of the game!

The times were hard indeed. Our ancestors worked with their legs and backs straining against wooden plows in the stony earth. Of course, progress did not stop with the wooden plow. People always searched for better tools and more productive plants to make their work more effective.

In Stone Age, the players live in this time, just as our ancestors did. They collect wood, break stone and wash their gold from the river. They trade freely, expand their village, and so achieve new levels of civilization.

That is exciting and interesting. With a balance of luck and planning, the players compete for food in this pre-historic time.

Risk and grow as your ancestors did. Only then the victory ring sings to you!
