New from Grey Fox Games! Run, Fight or Die, Zombie Horde and 5-6 Player Expansions!

Coming Soon!
GFX91483
Run, Fight, or Die
$49.99 SRP

The undead hordes are back! But this time they’re not miniatures shambling around a modular board - the zombies are coming straight for you!

As in most zombie games, you represent a unique character with your own character traits, except in Run, Fight, or Die! you will also have your own individual board with zombies you alone will encounter. Zombies move closer to you every round. You run from location to location, searching for weapons and survivors in a frantic attempt to stay alive. Survivors may bring new skills to help you in your desperate fight for survival, or in some cases, new challenges to overcome. In either case, every survivor provides you victory points. The game ends either when one player finds five survivors and declares the last round, or when a player reaches the town line (and the total Followers in play meets a minimum), or if a player gets bitten and turns.

Be careful, some followers may turn against you, while others can slow you down. When it comes right down to it, the choice is simple: Run, Fight, or Die!

Run, Fight or Die: Zombie Horde Expansion
$29.99 SRP

The undead hordes are back! And this time they come in all shapes and sizes. Crawlers will sneak up on you. Runners are first seen in the distance, but before you know it they are right in front of you. And Brutes aren’t any faster than your standard Walker, but boy, are they hard to kill.

Tired of just killing Walkers? Well, with Run, Fight, or Die! Zombie Horde Expansion now you have an assortment of zombies for Run, Fight, or Die! And to compensate for the game now being harder, each player can choose to have either a new skill or more Health Points.

Good luck, and may the best players...live to die another day.

New from Cool Mini or Not! Dogs of War!

Coming Soon!
CMNDOW0001
Dogs of War
$59.99 SRP

Conceived by renowned game designer Paolo Mori, Dogs of War is an elegant game set in a steampunk-influenced renaissance universe. Noble houses engage each other in a series of fierce battles, and it is up to the player and the Dogs of War they control to deploy their private armies in support of whatever house they wish to favor.

Clockwork knights and imposing war machines shift the tides of war as they enter the battlefields, but the interest of their Dog of War captains actually lie in the rewards offered by each noble house to its supporters.

Players will want to gain influence with the noble houses and make sure those houses are victorious in battle so that their influence is more valuable at the end of the game. This the Dogs of War flock to support a house on the rise and are all too quick to betray their previous patrons if things go awry. There are several pathways to victory, from crushing your opponents in battle to managing to gain influence with the right houses, or simply reaping the best battle rewards offered by them. With multiple paths to victory, each game is a unique and exciting experience with endless replayability.

ACD Exclusive from Portal Games! Neuroshima Hex Army Packs and Boardgames That Tell Stories!

PLG0005
Neuroshima Hex 3.0: Mississippi
$11.99 SRP
NPI

In 2050, Mississippi is a toxic sewage draining directly from the interior of Moloch. The river and its vicinity hidden in poisonous fumes are known as the Belt of Death or seedbed of mutants. Warriors of the Mississippi, clad in coats and gas masks, diffuse the worst of the diseases and poisons.

The main advantage of the army is the ability to massively posion the enemy HQ with Venom as well as to thwart the enemy plans. This faction also has a noticeable resistance to attacks and ability to bypass the enemy’s defense. However, the army’s disadvantages are a low number of Warriors, low mobility, low toughness, as well as a complete lack of armor.

Box content:
35 Mississippi army tiles
5 wound markers
2 Mississippi HQ markers
1 Toxic Bomb marker
5 Venom markers
Replacement tile and markers

Neuroshima Hex: Mephisto
$11.99 SRP
NPI

Anomalies originating from radioactive bomb craters generate such montrosities that prewar scientists would never imagine. Mephisto is a giant worm, a unique synthesis of flesh and steel, which can be a serious threat to even well-armed forces. Contaminated crater – Mephisto’s territory – is a tempting shortcut route and a source of resources, but too often it becomes a graveyard for newcomers.

Mephisto, the fourth Army Pack, offers fresh and experimental gameplay that revolutionizes the tactical challenges the players are faced with.

PLG0008
Neuroshima Hex: Sharrash
$11.99 SRP
NPI

Sharrash is a mysterious and well-organized community of mutant rats endowed with inhuman intelligence. They live underground, in tunnels and canals of the destroyed cities, along with degenerate humans and mutants who serve the Sharrash. They do not allow strangers anywhere near them, fiercely defend their nests, and their fighters will not hesitate to give their life for the pack.

The main advantages of the army are: mobility of HQ, the ability to blow up even the fastest enemy units and to paralyze the slower ones, and also bypassing enemy’s defense lines thanks to the mortars. Another advantage of the Sharrash is a difficult to eliminate Foundation Tile (Hole), which can easily thwart the enemy’s plans.

Sharrash’s disadvantage is a smaller number of fighting units than in other armies, their low mobility, low toughness and initiative, as well as a complete lack of armors.

Temporum
$49.95 SRP

In some of the best versions of reality, the Egyptians discover America, the industrial revolution happens early, and eventually robots take over. In others, the Renaissance produces a plutocracy, which leads to a utopia. Or perhaps to anarchy; it’s all in the subtle details. As a time traveler, you’ve seen it all, and it all has its place. What's important is who's in control in the long run, when time travel is invented.

With other time travelers mucking with things for their own reasons, your course is clear: you will tamper with history as much as is needed, step on however many butterflies it takes, to get a perfect world, under your own benign rule.
