Essen will be here sooner than you think and here at the office, we are gearing up for a week of awesomeness! Like every major convention we visit, we have opened pre-orders for all our Essen releases and you can pick them up at the show! If you aren’t going to Essen, that’s okay. We’ll still gladly take your order and ship you the games later, but you’ll have to pay shipping.

What’s more, you can order ANYTHING from our webstore for Essen pickup and you don’t pay shipping! Just add your items to your cart and select the Essen Pickup option at checkout and you’re good to go! Obviously, you have to show up to Essen to get your stuff…

Our new releases for Essen:

Cry Havoc is an asymmetric, card-driven area control game for 2-4 players. Each player controls one of the four unique races and fights viciously to gather the most Crystals on the planet, which will more than offset the costs of the conflict. To do this, players must customize their decks of cards, Build powerful Structures, and leverage their unique Skills to gain victory.



Death Breath is an all new army for Neuroshima Hex 3.0 designed by Michał Oracz. The Death Breath is a terrifying virus which began spreading forth from the eastern enclaves of the Moloch. It infects every living thing, changing them into brainless, bloodthirsty beasts. Victims of these attacks become infected with the virus, and so it spreads. So far, the most effective way of dealing with the infected are strong ammunition, grenades, and a sharp ax.



Robinson Crusoe marks its return to Portal Games in an all new English edition featuring: custom wooden pieces, thick cardboard character cards, over 450 edits on the cards to improve clarity, a standard sized square box, a 7th scenario, and an all-new English rulebook based on the excellent German edition. Portal Games has also update the cover illustration with all new artwork from industry veteran Vincent Durait. This change should help customers identify the new version of the game from previous editions.



Imperial Settlers: Aztecs, an expansion that requires the base game to play. The expansion includes a new faction board, the Aztecs faction deck, blessing tokens, and expansion cards for the original factions that complement the Aztecs abilities.


 

Summer 2016 US Releases:

Tides of Madness is a sequel to Tides of Time and features gameplay similar to that design with an added new twist: Madness. Some cards, while powerful, harm your psyche, so you must keep an eye on your madness level or else risk losing the game early as your mind is lost to the power of the ancients.



Angry Ocean is the first official expansion to Rattle Battle Grab the Loot. In this expansion you will find two new scenarios for the game. In the first players will have adventures during a storm and will fight with vicious sea monsters. The Second scenario tells a story of old pirates preparing for their last quest before retirement. The Expansion also conains 2 special non player pirates and a die for each.



Mephisto is a symbiotic alien creature brought to Earth about 65 million years ago by a meteorite. It has grown since then from a small spawn to a net of interconnected, specialized grubs, reaching from Australia to the North Pole through both Americas. Now in the year 2050, the war on the surface above is blazing and furious like it was never before. Mephisto, slow as it is, has noticed that something on the surface wants to harm it and decides to participate in the war to defend itself.



Dancer The Moloch attack on Omega had unforeseen consequences: Damage to the facility set three strange creatures free. They are the product of a secret genetic research project, code named “Dancer”. Now, half-mad and with no control over their instincts, creatures begin fighting for survival in the post-apocaliptic wasteland. The Dancer is a completely new challenge for Neuroshima Hex players.
