Z-Man Games is coming out with a new edition of Condottiere. Players are in control of an Italian city-state and must use their armies to enforce their dominance over the country. In this article, Z-Man Games gives us a general overview of how the game works, so those that might be jumping in now can know what to expect when it hits the shelves.
Yo-ho! Yo-ho! A viking's life for me! Ok, I know that's not really how the song goes, but unless I wanted to just start posting Amon Amarth lyrics, I don't know many viking songs. Besides, they're from Sweden, not Norway, which is where you'll be headed in the new expansion for A Feast For Odin, The Norwegians, that Z-Man Games has announced.
Art in a game can be just as important as rules or fluff. You could have a great rules set, but if the art is just kinda "bleh," it can ruin the whole thing. Thankfully, there's a lot of talented artists out there. For example, there's Tomasz Jedruszek, who Z-Man Games tasked with doing the art for a new version of Condottiere. In this interview, we get a look at what inspired him when creating the new art pieces.
Z-Man Games will soon be coming out with their new tactical card game, Guardians. In it, each player takes on the role of a different Hero as you fight against one-another to see who's the best. In this preview, we get a look at two of these heroes: Astra and Grave. Will one of these be the last one standing?
The release of Mesozooic from Z-Man Games draws ever-closer. Soon, you'll be able to build your own dinosaur theme park and fill it with all manner of attractions. In this preview, we get a look at some of the more advanced options in the game. You've got your dinosaurs, but what about your dino-VR experience? Or advanced coasters?
If you're so goth, where were you when we ransacked Rome?
A rather silly question, to be sure (you were hanging out in the Collosseum, petting the lions), but it's one that you can live out in the new version of Pandemic that Z-Man Games has announced. Barbarian hordes are gathering outside the walls and the citizens of Rome are trapped. The garrisons are stretched thin. Will they be able to hold out or is the Fall of Rome inevitable? The new edition is available to order now.
In Mesozooic, you're looking to create the greatest dinosaur theme park of them all. By having the right combination of dinosaurs, concessions, and other attractions, you'll have the highest attendance. To add to the possibilities for your park, Z-Man Games is coming out with the Triassic expansion.
In this Year of New Editions, that includes anniversary editions of games. In this case, Stone Age is celebrating 10 years of placing workers in a prehistoric city. Z-Man Games has announced that they're taking pre-orders for a new version, with new components, a double-sided map, and rules for playing in the cold of winter. Have a look.
Woooooo! Saturdaaaaaaaaaaaay!
I started my weekend off with some D&D, and that's actually what I'm doing again now (through the miracle of future-scheduling posts). But no matter what you're doing, I know you're here to check out some reviews. So, while my Bard is hopefully not getting stabbed to death, let's see what we've got this week.
We have: Starship Samurai, Tofu Kingdom, Detective: A Modern Crime Board Game, My First Stone Age, Fae, Duhr: The Lesser Houses, HOPE, Dwarves with Swords, and Hero Master.
First comes love. Then comes marriage. At least, that's how the old saying goes (well, "saying" being an old mocking tune, but still). Love Letter has been reskinned several ways, but now things are getting serious. The wedding invitations are going out, and it's time to get hitched (shotguns optional). Z-Man Games is taking orders for Love Letter: Wedding Edition.
It's time to set sail on the high seas. There's lots of treasure out there to be found, cargo to be transported, and goods to be sold. That's what you'll be doing in Anchors Aweigh, a new game coming from Z-Man Games. Pick up the right goods for your journey, and head to port to make the most profit. They are taking pre-orders now.
