Handful Of Stars

Handful Of Stars

It was the aftermath of the time known as the 'Great Cosmic Ripple'. For reasons not fully understood by the scientists of the time, the empires of the Arm had been ripped apart and spread randomly among the stars, as if shaken around in a large box!

It is now time for the space faring races of the Voltare Arm to reunite with their own and put back together what had been so terribly disrupted. Great space fleets are now embarking on missions to re-establish their empires while conquering those star systems that happen to be in the way.

Your challenge is to lead one of the seven races of the Arm in consolidating your empire and invading new worlds. You will need to build fleets of ships, research new technologies, plan long-term strategies and ride the waves left from the 'Great Cosmic Ripple' A Handful of Stars builds upon and expands the Deck Building and Area Control mechanics of Mythtopia and reimplements them in an exciting new way as you step forward to into the stars!

Mythos Tales 1st Edition

Mythos Tales 1st Edition

Welcome to H.P. Lovecraft's Arkham in the 1920s. There will be many mysteries to uncover in this storytelling game of Lovecraftian terror. Using the provided newspaper, a list of allies, the directory of Arkham residents, and a map of Arkham, your job is to follow the clues from location to location, suspect to suspect, to unravel the mystery and answer the questions posed at the end of each scenario.

Your score in Mythos Tales depends upon the number of clues points you needed to visit, the risks you took to your sanity in your investigations, and your ability to find the correct answers to the questions. Match wits with Armitage, the man who has been exposed to the sanity-blasting truth about the existence of the age old evil! Can you beat his score?

With that in mind, it is time to collaborate with Armitage's investigations to complete your training. This is not a typical board game: No dice, no luck, but a challenge to your mental ability.

Omega Centauri

Omega Centauri

Two millennia ago, a loose federation of planets combined to form the Galactic Empire. From that small beginning, the Empire ruthlessly expanded, enslaving or exiling all races that were a threat to their dominion. Recently, the Empire has suffered revolts from conquered races, and on the barren galactic rim, the exiled races gather their forces to strike at the weakened Empire. As the Empire's might and influence wane, a new era is dawning. Which new race will ascend to power?

Will you focus on obtaining technological or cultural superiority, or will you build an invincible armada to crush those who stand in your way? The winner of the game will be the player who has accumulated the most victory points at the end of the final round of play. Omega Centauri offers players many routes to victory, and you can accumulate victory points (VPs) by wresting control of sectors of space from the Empire (or from other players), by improving your infrastructure and planetary defences, or by expanding your cultural influence. The player with the most VPs at the end of the final round is deemed to have ascended and established the new dominant Empire in the galaxy.

Braggart 2nd Edition

Braggart 2nd Edition

Braggart is card game of heroes, lies and unfortunate fish!

You sit in The Heroes Return, a tavern famed for its heroic clientèle. You're not a hero, but you talk a good game. You and your friends are holding court, regaling the crowds with your tales of derring-do. Can you fight your way through a drunken haze to concoct the best boast? The most believable? Or at least ones that are funny? Or will you be called out as the liar you are?

In Braggart, a game of heroes, lies and unfortunate fish, each round players play cards from their hand which each contain a part of their story to combine them into a compelling tale. Stories are by turns hilarious or awe-inspiring and other players can accept them or accuse them of lying, downgrading their boast into something much less impressive (though usually much funnier!).

Praetor

Praetor

It's the year AD 122, and the Roman Empire is at the peak of its glory. Caesar Hadrian is no longer waging war against the barbarians, but building cities and fortifications to ensure a lengthy domination of the Roman culture and wealth.

In Praetor, you will take the role of a Roman engineer, and you will work together with the other players to build a magnificent city. You will manage your limited resources wisely and look for new ones, you will recruit new Workers while your old experienced ones will retire, you will build settlements to keep the population happy, and you will praise the Gods to earn their favor. Caesar will reward you if you give away precious resources to build Hadrian's Wall, thus increasing your chances of becoming Praetor.
