Wiraqocha

$ 60.00 SRP

 

We are in the early XXth century, but the world is not as we know it. In 1895, exploring Amazonia, Auguste Copperpot discovered a gate to a lost valley, occupied by a primitive civilization. Wiraqocha Valley was the name he gave to this remote Eden. This world enclosed a treasure that was going to revolutionize modern sciences, namely the Somnium, an orange luminescent crystal showing amazing properties. It can be used as fuel, affects matter and even time. Immediately, this virgin land became a new Eldorado for European colonists. Empress Victoria II decided to send several conglomerates to share this promised land and reap the fruits to her benefit. Zeppelin fleet, full of scientists, adventurers and looters, clouded the Atlantic sky. Wiraqocha Valley is represented by an adjustable board consisting of 22 hexagonal tiles, each of them being identified by a number from 1 to 12, or a dice combo (pairs or straights). In his turn, each player rolls some six-sided dice, combining them to take possession of territories, or to protect from the opponents the ones he already owns. Every hexagon affords resources or special capacities, which are means to influence die results to fit one’s strategy. There are three ways to win: bring back a huge cargo of Somnium to the Empress; acquire enough scientific knowledge to build the Leviathan, a terrifying weapon serving the Kingdom; or find in the temple depths the four relics that will allow you to reach Wiraqocha’s treasure.

Tales from AnCon

This was my first year at AnCon.  Keeping that in mind I scheduled events  with no expectations.  When I showed up in Hudson I was not overly surprised by the  number of people at the show.  What I was surprised at was running an event almost immediately.  As it turns out our event success rate was about as high as Origins.  Considering the difference in the size of the show I consider 5 new players  (the same number we had at Origins) huge success.

I have already emailed the players thanked them for playing, they made our experience a success.  I would also like to extend a thanks to the crew of MTSB gaming for running the con.

I had a blast at this show I even played some games.  I role played the part of Batman and made him say “yo”.  I wish I would have made him say “Semper Fi”.  Something makes me think Batman would be an awesome marine, even if he isn’t very gung-ho.   It was my first Mutants and Masterminds experience.  I am ready for more.   Batman and Green Arrow were well um almost juvenile in this adventure.  While Superman and Wonder Woman were a little more serious than we were.  Even if I had no idea I was butchering persona of Batman, I had fun.  I am even looking forward to collecting comics again sometime in the near future.

I even played a miniatures game, House Tek.  Well Table Tek really uses action figures.  That is right action figures.  It is a homebrew set of rules that uses everything in the house as terrain.  Every mini player should buy this game just to show their spouse there is a bright side to our little men.  All joking aside, it is a really good game.  I had a blast flying right down the middle on a suicide run, that didn’t even kill me right away.  I did kind of make my team mates disgruntled by my aggressive move.

I also wanted to take the time to thank Dave Cook for creating Heebie Jeebies.  It is a great new, not yet released, party game that makes people squirm.   Think about it, what gives you the heebie jeebies?  I am sure it is in the game.  If not visit the kickstarter and email Dave your idea.

We are already making plans for next year, you better be there.

Ramba Samba

$ 49.95 SRP

 

Carnival in Rio Caterpillo! Ramba Caterpillar prepares herself for the night of her life. She wants to shake a leg, her hairstyle is perfect — only one thing is missing: the right outfit! All of Ramba’s costumes are in a clothes bag. Can you help her find the matching clothes so that she arrives at the party in time? Children Ages 4 and up can feel and form while playing Ramba Samba. Here, players develop their tactile abilities while playing the game. The friendly caterpillar has lots of colorful dresses in her sack, just right for the big carnival. Sadly, Ramba can’t remember any more which clothing articles fit which parts of her long body. The player who can feel which ones fit the fastest is the winner. In Ramba Samba, the name of the game is shapes, feel and a happy little caterpillar with clothes made of lots of colorful wooden pieces. The game board shows the entire length of the caterpillar Ramba. Her carnival costume (wooden pieces) are hidden in a large cloth bag. They fit on the game board in pre-determined ways. Each turn, the player simultaneously reach into the bag to find the next matching puzzle piece. The winner is the player who places the most pieces. Ramba Samba demands tactile awareness in a fun-filled way. Because only the player who can feel the matching pieces fastest will win.
