 The enemy of the Colonies stands revealed. The mad dragon P’an Ku, a fundamental force of madness and destruction, has manipulated the Great Clans for its own unfathomable purposes. Madness, war, and disgrace have been the results. With P’an Ku’s machinations exposed, the samurai of the Colonies must now try to overcome their own animosities and find a means to defeat the influence of a divine enemy, or else all may be lost forever.

 

Gates of Chaos is the latest expansion for the fan favorite Legend of the Five Rings Collectible Card Game from AEG. Like the previous expansion, Coils of Madness, it is part of both the Emperor and Ivory Arc. P’an Ku’s grip on the Colonies is almost complete as brave samurai assemble to enter the mouth of madness and confront him. Will he be defeated before he can finish molding the entire land to his image?

 

This set introduces the new Ivory Edition packaging for booster boxes: a tin box with embossed artwork on the lid and with 150 new cards legal for both the Emperor Edition and the Ivory Edition Arc, with a chance every booster to get a foil version of a rare card.

 

History is written by the victors. Who will prevail between the samurai and the mad divinity? You decide!

The Supreme Commander is a game designed for 2-5 players covering the entirety of World War II in the European Theater of Operations (ETO), from September 1939 to the end of the war. While there are plenty of other ETO games out there, The Supreme Commander effectively models all of the primary aspects of the war in a simple, straight-forward manner.

 

All of these elements and more are included in a surprisingly easy-to-learn game: Murmansk convoy, Lend-Lease, diplomacy, the strategic U-Boat campaign, technological advancement, strategic bombing campaigns, naval invasions, the economy and military production, partisans.

 

That is not to say that The Supreme Commander is some sort of compromise, surrendering historical accuracy for simplicity. The game delivers a detailed order of battle and meticulously researched economic and diplomatic system which allows players to play out the historical military campaigns of the war as well as the “what ifs” that may have happened. It is entirely up to the players, the system is open-ended and does not restrict players to the exact decisions of the past.

 

Contains:

Rules Booklet, Play Booklet

Two Counter Sheets

Two Player Aid Cards

Diplomatic Track

Six Force Pool Cards

22 x 34 inch Map

Two ten-sided dice

In December 1956, paroled rebel Fidel Castro returned to Cuba to launch his revolution with virtually no political base and, after a disastrous initial encounter with government forces, a total of just 12 men. Two years later, through masterful propaganda and factional maneuver, Castro, his brother Raúl, and iconic revolutionary Che Guevara had united disparate guerrillas and exploited Cubans’ deep opposition to their dictator Fulgencio Batista y Zaldívar. Castro’s takeover of the country became a model for Leftist insurgency.

 

Cuba Libre will be easy to learn for Andean Abyss players, both volumes share the same innovative COIN system. Like Volume I, Cuba Libre is equally playable solitaire or by multiple players up to 4 and with a shorter time to completion than Andean Abyss. But Cuba Libre’s situation and strategic challenges will be new. A deck of 48 fresh events brings 1950s Cuba to life.

Hamster PressHungry Dragon: Amazon Edition

$14.99 SRP

 

Fight a dragon. Steal treasure. Don’t get eaten. The dragon hunter’s creed.  Heroes have tracked a dragon back to its lair. Now they battle the beast while snatching up treasures. They can steal the good stuff from one another while the fight goes on. All the while the dragon fights back swallowing heroes and treasures that slowly move towards the beast’s fiery stomach. Prepare to make some noise, this is a boisterous game.  The Amazon and Pirate versions of the game add together to form a single bigger game.  

 

Hungry Dragon is a 54 card deck fighting/stealing game that includes character, weapon, treasure, and dragon part cards. Players control the dragon or a team of four heroes. The heroes move in close to fight, hang back a little to snatch treasure, or stay safe out of range of the dragon’s claws. Each turn players get a free move and may make one action. Their chance of success is based on how much noise they make. Make a roar and the roll is okay. Brag about how well you do and the chance of succeeding is great. Once the dragon is dead (or escapes) the player with the most valuable treasure wins!

Crossfire: Why I like to play the Street Samurai: Simplicity with Versatility

 Card Games, Catalyst Game Labs, Shadowrun, Shadowrun Crossfire  Comments Off on Crossfire: Why I like to play the Street Samurai: Simplicity with Versatility
Jul 212013
 

Excerpt from Catalyst Game Labs

Shadowrun-5-Crossfire-Logo1

Sure the Street Samurai can deal a ton of damage—it’s one of the top damage dealing roles in the game. But the role also has many other tools it puts at your disposal.

So how do you deal damage as the Sammy? By playing Katanas with other weapon cards. A simple combo that’s fun to play. Katanas also stack with each other, so buy lots of them if they show up.

The problem is that your damage is all black and colorless and there are very few obstacles you can defeat with just that type of damage. This color-focus is the Street Samurai’s weakness, but you can do something about it and still stay in your color.
