Redshirts

$ 20.00 SRP

Redshirts is a fast paced screw-your-buddies style card game, with simple mechanics and a humorously irreverent take on a certain classic sci-fi television series. Everyone in the Galactic Space Corps knows that the most successful starship Captains go through junior enlisted crewmen like a fat kid goes through cupcakes. In Redshirts, you will: -Assemble and lead an away team of heroic yet disposable characters at a variety of locations. -Examine every mission in detail to determine the crewman with the very best chance to succeed, and then send someone else. -Turn your starship into a slaughterhouse as wave after wave of underlings rush to their death like a pack of lemmings with teleporter technology! Be the first to eliminate every Redshirt on your ship and demonstrate that you have what it takes to lead…from the rear!

You can see all the images here.

My favorite model from this wave is the Canoptek Wraith. With the said the Necron image has changed a bit too much to really get into them. I like the old image a lot more.

Monster Chase

$ 14.99 SRP

Monster Chase is a cooperative game. This means that, instead of competing against each other, the players must unite their forces to beat the monsters. The players win or lose together. The goal of the game is to use your toys to scare all of the monsters back into the closet! Since all of the monsters are only scared of one toy, you will have to choose your toys carefully. If you don’t find the right toy, after 3 tries, you will have to add another monster around the bed. You win if you send all of the monsters to the closet. However… the Monsters win as soon as there are 4 monsters around the bed.

Monte Cook leaving Wizards of the Coast

Gaming News Comments Off

So Monte Cook Had this to say the other day

“Last week I decided that I would leave my contract position with Wizards of the Coast. I am no longer working on Dungeons & Dragons, although I may provide occasional consultation in the future. My decision is one based on differences of opinion with the company. ”

You can read the full article at Chapel Perilous and I suggest you do.

Monte Cook at the 2007 ENnies. (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

There is no drama bout the decision or anything like that. he does say he has something in the works. It should be interesting.

So what does this mean for Dungeons and Dragons?

Is something we should be concerned about as a consumer? While it is a little alarming that he is leaving, I am not sure it should be major concern of ours. He doesn’t say there is a problem with the system. In fact, he says he will miss working with the staff.

I have a lot of mixed emotions about 5 th ed. I think the idea of getting all D&D players under the same rules set should be an ideal not a goal.

I wish I knew more about 5th ed.

US Infantry

$ 38.25 SRP

The boxed set contains parts to make 25 plastic, multi-pose US infantrymen. There are several backpack and equipment options on the sprues so you can use this set to represent American footsloggers from their introduction to the Second World War in 1941 right through to the end of WWII. They wouldn’t look out of place in the Pacific and would even be good for US troops in the Korean War. For those of you after something a little bit different for an army how about painting them as Free French soldiers (they used US uniforms and equipment) or even the Brazilian Expeditionary Force!

So Wizkids is getting ready to move into another DC expansion for the Heroclix game system. Before I say anything here is a picture

I really like where WizKids is going with their sculpts. I believe they have increased the quality of their figures since their original conception. I also like the fact that they seem to be personifying the movies more than they used.

They are also giving away away a free Thor on Free Comic book day, at participating locations. If you haven’t seen him yet here he is.
