Coup:
Reformation Expansion
$11.99
SRP
Coup:
Reformation, an expansion for the original version of Coup: City State from La
Mame Games, adds new cards to the game and rules for factions and team play
that increases tension in the early stages for four or more players and (thanks
to 15 additional character cards) allows Coup to be better played with up to
ten players.
With
Coup: Reformation, each player must declare himself either Protestant or
Catholic and can target only members of the other faith. Conversion is
possible, however, for yourself or for another player by paying a charitable
donation to the Almshouse. Like all factions, once you have eliminated the
other sect, you just descend into in-fighting, so there's still only one winner
and no second place.
Coup:
Reformation adds a new fluid team dynamic to Coup as players jostle with their
allegiance to take advantage or seek protection in the early stages of the
game.
Requires
base card game to play (IBCCOU1).

Dragon
Slayer
$12.99
SRP
You
are the world's most fearless dragon slayers, competing to be crowned the
master slayer. Your brave warrior must search far and wide for these ferocious
beasts, defend yourself against its attacks and be ever ready to strike them
down. Even in victory your companions may challenge your courage, demanding
that you prove your valor with foolhardy audacity or cower in their mocking
taunts.
Game designer David Mortimer really made this
game shine, creating a new PYL game is a deceptively difficult challenge, and
he did this one right. Like all great PYL games, the rules are simple, format
of repeating the Dragon Hunt until you decide to stop. The very interesting
twist is the player challenges. The ability to challenge, and rewards for
passing or failing when challenged, add a dimension to everything that you do
on your turn. What order do you go after dragons? When do you stop? When do you
challenge? Who do you challenge? How do you get others not to challenge you?
