Enough about the fun. Beep Beep Attack has a perfect blend of game mechanics and critical thinking that make it a fun challenge all the time.

D&D 5th: Princes of the Apocalypse
$49.95
Called by the Elder Elemental Eye to serve, four corrupt prophets have risen from the depths of anonymity to claim mighty weapons with direct links to the power of the elemental princes. Each of these prophets has assembled a cadre of cultists and creatures to serve them in the construction of four elemental temples of lethal design. It is up to adventurers from heroic factions such as the Emerald Enclave and the Order of the Gauntlet to discover where the true power of each prophet lay, and dismantle it before it comes boiling up to obliterate the Realms.
Castle Dice: More Castles!
$34.99
More Castles takes everything players and reviewers have loved about Castle Dice and adds four unique “castle” decks. Now, each player will be drawing from their own deck, instead of sharing one with the other players!
In this Figure Forge Matt Tackles the Ferrum Drone Carrier. Way back at Origins he was challenged to make this model in under thirty minutes.
I look forward to fielding this in the upcoming months. Well, I should say I look forward to blowing it up since I believe this is my son’s army choice.
I recently had the chance to teach Ryan Hale how to play Rezolution: a dark tomorrow. Before watching the game here are his afterthoughts.
It was an interesting game where he played the APAC starter crew and I played the CSO. We opted just to play a straight up firefight for his second game. It’s basically a demo game.
I however, am a veteran of this game and well here are some of my thoughts.
I will be bringing you more on Rezolution and Warlands later this year.

MAGIC: THE GATHERING ANNOUNCES MAGIC ORIGINS
New Set to Release on July 17
Marks Pivotal Moment in Magic’s History and Lore
February 9, 2015 – RENTON, WA – Wizards of the Coast announced today Magic Origins, a new Magic: The Gathering set releasing this July. This pivotal new set reveals the origin stories of five of Magic‘s most beloved Planeswalker characters.
In the Magic: The Gathering Multiverse, some mages are born with a rare gift, simply known as “the spark.” When such mages face a great ordeal, their spark’s potential is unleashed, elevating them to become Planeswalkers and travel between the planes of the Multiverse. Magic Origins will reveal for the first time these pivotal moments for five Planeswalkers: Gideon Jura, Jace Beleren, Liliana Vess, Chandra Nalaar, and Nissa Revane.
“Magic Origins is a different kind of core set than we’ve ever done before, one with ambitious story goals and deep creative impact,” says Doug Beyer, Magic‘s senior creative designer. “All core sets in recent years have had Planeswalker cards, but Magic Origins doesn’t just contain five Planeswalkers-it’s also about those Planeswalker characters. It’s about certain points in time in those Planeswalkers’ lives-the events that led them to become Planeswalkers-and is meant to set up a lot of our plans for Magic‘s future story. We’ll see these characters’ home worlds, learn about the joys and crises of their early lives, and discover how they became the Multiverse-traveling Planeswalkers we know today.”
This Planeswalker spark also exists in Magic‘s 20 million players and fans worldwide. For many fans, playing Magic has become a pivotal point in their own lives, as they forge life-long friendships in a welcoming and supportive community united by the fun of playing the world’s best strategy game.
