The West Kingdom series from Renegade Game Studios is getting a new addition. You can head over and put in your pre-order for Paladins of the West Kingdom.

In the end, one will be hailed as the savior of France.
AAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRGGHHHHH!!!!
I don't know. That's what I think of when I think of DBZ. Though I've since found out that all that padding was put in because the animators were under such a schedule that they just needed more time to get more animating done, and that was a great way to stretch things out. But anyway, that's all beside the point. You can power up your attacks as much as you want in the upcoming Dragon Ball Z Miniature Mayhem board game, coming from CMON and IDW.
The Normandy invasion not only changed the course of WWII, but the course of world history. But if you in charge of the various forces, would you have done things differently?

Friday! Gateway to the weekend! You know I'm happy about it, because I have gaming tomorrow. Also, I did end up getting my sauces yesterday. They're all delicious.

Today on the platter we have: New Triad Bases Available From Micro Art Studio, Crit Dice Up On Kickstarter, and New Rolling Slaughter Vehicle Attachment Available From Puppets War.

Test your Disney movie trivia in multiple rounds of questions, trying to get the high score. Just don't get answers wrong, or you'll lose points.

No, it's not a game about Geddy Lee diagnosing your stomach pains. Let's just get that out of the way.
I used to work in a hospital. And, yeah, it can be a really hectic, crazy place. When something goes wrong, there's usually only seconds to help out in these very real life-and-death scenarios. Thankfully, in Rush M.D., you're not actually holding someone's life in your hands, but you still need to be able to make split-second decisions in this real-time, cooperative game. It's up on Kickstarter now.
HeroClix is for heroes of all types. It's not just Marvel and DC that get to have figures. In its upcoming set, WizKids is creating figures based on famous WWE wrestlers. They've posted up a preview of the first two, AJ Punk and Eddie Guerrero. Have yourself a look.

Clan Ghost Bear Forever!
Dogs love bones. That's just a known thing. And Rover, the new figure previewed for Quirky Circuits from Plaid Hat Games, is no different. Though, instead of just chewing on them, he's digging up old bones for a museum exhibit. Will players be able to successfully program where he's to go? That's up to you to find out.
SPQR, the upcoming game from Warlord Games, will be the first made with their new material, Warlord Resin. But what is this new material? How will it affect the look of the models? How well does it paint up? How resilient is it? A change in material is usually a really big thing for a game, so I'm sure you're all interested to see what this new stuff is like. Thankfully, Warlord's posted up a little preview of it for you.
There's a lot of little gizmos, gadgets, tech, toys, weapons, and other gear in the Star Wars universe. From weapons to communicators to scanners to everything in-between. Fantasy Flight is putting out a book full of the stuff for the Star Wars RPG, called Gadgets and Gear, and they want you to get a sneak-preview of what will be lining Wotto's shelves when the book releases.
Good lord, we're damn-near to Gen Con. There's only about... oh... a billion more things I need to do before then (rough estimate).

That way, you can know to stop by (or order yourself a Ninja Shopper to help you out).
There's problems out in the world. Problems like witches. Problems like aliens. Problems like hyper-intelligent raccoons. And modern problems call for modern solutions. I mean, of course, magical kitties. And that's exactly what you'll be becoming in Magical Kitties Save the Day, a new RPG from Atlas Games that's up on Kickstarter now.
The barrier has been broken. A rift has opened. And different realities are clashing, literally.

The theme allows for all types of characters to interact and battle, and the first chapter includes Fantasy and Post-Apocalytpic miniatures. The game is up on Kickstarter now.
Cats are fast. They are clever. And they are sharp. Sounds like the perfect addition to a football pitch. And that's what you can do with the new Neko Team that Zenit Miniatures has up on Kickstarter now. It's a full team with plenty of extras all set to go. Grab the team that'll have your opponent screaming, "That darn cat!"

Those that pre-order now will get the exclusive-artwork No! card to go with it. Yes, you will get No! If you don't pre-order, then you can't get No! satisfaction.
