Lords
of War: Orcs vs. Dwarves
$19.99
SRP
Lords
of War: Orcs versus Dwarves is the original award-winning Lords of War pack. As
with all Lords of War core decks, the game is playable out of the box and
contains two complete armies - the Orcs and the Dwarves.
These
factions are differentiated by their exclusive cards and strategies; the Dwarf
faction plays more defensively, using some Ranged cards and powerful Berserker
units to pick-off assailants, while the Orc army encourages players to attack
more vigorously, often committing kamikaze moves to their tactical advantage.
Lords
of War: Orcs versus Dwarves is cross-compatible with Elves versus Lizardmen and
Templars versus Undead, meaning that all the Lords of War armies can be used to
battle one another.
The
armies can also be blended together, using a strict Ranking System, to create
Mercenary decks for tournament play.

Lords
of War: Elves vs. Lizardmen
$19.99
SRP
Like
its predecessor Lords of War: Orcs versus Dwarves, Lords of War: Elves versus
Lizardmen is a dual-deck strategic card game for two-plus players. It won the
UK Games Expo Award for Best Strategic Card Game in 2013, the year of its
release.
The
game is cross-compatible with Orcs versus Dwarves and Templars versus Undead,
meaning that all the Lords of War armies can be used to battle one another. The
armies can also be blended together, using a strict Ranking System, to create
Mercenary decks for tournament play.
The
factions in this deck are the Elves, which feature strong cavalry units and
archers but a relatively weak infantry, and the Lizardmen, who are the most
flexible Lords of War army and are best used to disrupt and counter enemy
attack strategies.
These
armies also features new and deadly type of Berserker Units, the Elven Puresoul
and Cruor Sacrifice, both of which are capable of achieving Chain Eliminations
in diagonal formations across the board.

Lords
of War: Templars vs. Undead
$19.99
SRP
The
third in the Lords of War: Fantasy Battles series. It is currently a nominee
for the UK Games Expo Award for Best Expansion Pack.
Like
its award-winning predecessors, Templars versus Undead is a dual-deck strategic
card game for two-plus players which sees fantasy races engaging in dynamic
tactical card battles.
The
Templar faction is based around a heavily armored infantry and mobile
palisades. The Undead meanwhile contain a stark range of defensive and
offensive units, including zombies which roam across the battlefield.
Templars versus Undead is compatible with both
Elves versus Lizardmen and Orcs versus Dwarves, meaning that all the Lords of
War armies can be used to battle one another. The armies can also be blended
together, using a strict ranking system, to create Mercenary Decks for
tournament play.

Lords
of War: Terrain and Weather Pack
$11.99
SRP
The Weather and Terrain Expansion Pack is
compatible with all Lords of War armies and enhances Lords of War play with two
new modes: Weather, which sees players putting their tactics to the test
against the elements, and Terrain, which enables players to build their own
battlefields.

Domains
at War: The Complete Set
$65.00
SRP
SDI
SOO
Domains
at War brings the full sweep of fantasy warfare to tabletop gaming and
role-playing campaigns. The Domains at War Complete Set offers three
interlocking systems to cover the full sweep of military struggles in a
fantasy, ancient, or medieval world:
•
A quick mass combat rule system for use in any role-playing game that uses
concepts like hit points and armor class.
•
A comprehensive campaign toolkit for use in ongoing games, fully compatible
with the Adventurer Conqueror King System’s rules for mercenaries, strongholds,
magic, and rulership.
•
A fast-playing tactical wargame derived from these systems, so that playing a
battle generates outcomes like what you'd get if you fought it out on the
one-on-one roleplaying scale.
The
Domains at War Complete Set comes with two softcover rulebooks, Campaigns and
Battles, as well as 12 pages of full-color counters for units, leaders, spells,
and terrain and a 4’ x 3’ fold-out battlemap for tabletop warfare.
Domains
at War is designed for Autarch’s best-selling Adventurer Conqueror King System,
but is compatible with any fantasy RPG system that uses twenty-sided dice and
shares concepts like hit points and armor class. If your tabletop gaming would
benefit from the vivid drama and agonizing choices of warfare, Domains at War
is designed for you.

Domains
at War: Battles
$30.00
SRP
SDI
Tomorrow
you will bring the battle to the foe. Tonight you walk among the troops you’ll
lead. The mercenaries are veterans and sleep while they can, but the peasants
levied from your lands seek courage in tales of your previous victories. In the
cover of darkness, you can listen rather than lead. Remember when you were like
them? Back when you first entered the dungeon, you wielded a sword to fight for
gold, glory, and the favor of the gods. Winning these earned you a throne. Now
you wield an army, and fight for the right to rule the domains at war.
Using
the rules herein, you can run massive battles between opposing armies using
playing pieces on the tabletop. Designed specifically for battles where RPG
characters are in command, Domains at War: Battles makes the deeds and
decisions of those characters the focus of its gameplay, and works hard to
integrate their actions into the flow of battle. Built from the same
mathematics that power ACKS, it generates outcomes like what you’d get if you
fought it out on the one-on-one roleplaying scale.

Antike
II
$59.95
SRP
Antike
II is a challenging strategy game about evolution and competition among ancient
civilizations. Ancient nations create cities, build temples, sail the seas, and
discover new principles of science and technology. Their legions and galleys
open new settlements and defend their people against attacks from their
enemies. Two scenarios can be chosen as the game board is two-sided.
Every
nation tries to win ancient kings, scholars, generals, citizens, and navigators
for themselves. The nation that acquires a specified number (depending on the
number of players) of ancient personalities first wins the game!
Lead
one of these nations to victory but watch out for your enemies as they will
want to conquer your cities to destroy your temples. The game depends not on
the luck of dice or cards, but on thoughtful plans and skillful diplomacy.
Antike
II differs from the 2005 Antike in several ways. To start, players now own city tokens, which allows them some degree of
choice as to which resource a newly founded city shall produce. Military units
have become more expensive, and the rules for the conquest of cities are
considerably easier. The scientific progresses were altered as well. Neutral
temples now exist, which may be destroyed, gaining VPs of a general, without
harming other players. The game features two new maps in a new graphical
design, and a new card named “BELLONA” (the ancient Roman goddess of war) has
been introduced to counter the starting player’s advantage.

Ladies offers female versions of the beans used

lady beans have different Beanometers within the same bean type; and baby beans
have no Beanometer at all. When harvesting a field, the Beanometer showing on
the top-most card (last card played) in the field is the one used for earning
gold coins from the harvest.
Gangsters is for one or two players where they
compete against a third entity, the Bean Mafia. The players need to have more
profit than each other and the Bean Mafia in order to win. Also includes a few
new beans with irregular beanometers.

they lie in wait in their pirate ships to capture the cargoes of merchant ships

Once
again, the hunter prowls the forest. All the animals flee in terror! Well, not
really. Only a dumb animal would call attention to itself. In our forest, the
animals are smart, otherwise their heads would be decorating the hunter’s
mantelpiece. Our animals just casually saunter away, while convincing the
hunter that he must be looking for something else. “Are you hungry for rabbit,
Mr. Hunter? Well, you see, I’m a moose. Oh, no, not a moose with antlers like
that…”
In
this merry game, players take on the roles of rabbits and moose. While the
hunter strolls through the forest, players are trying to look like an animal
the hunter won’t shoot. And because they do so by making rabbit ears or moose
antlers of various shapes on their heads, the spectators enjoy the game as well
as the players.

Tash-Kalar
is the ancient art of magical combat performed in arenas and combat pits

famous arena, the place where the game began. You can play the game with 2, 3,
or 4 players, in teams or individually.
Whether
you are playing the High Form or a deathmatch, all games of Tash-Kalar have the
same basic rules: Players take turns creating magical stones and placing them
in patterns that allow them to summon fantastical beings. Here you will find
the mystical intrigues of the Sylvan, the brutal fury of the Highlanders, and
the incisive tactics of the Imperials.
Your
beings can move around the arena, disrupt opponents’ patterns, and form new
patterns that allow you to summon more beings. Each form of Tash-Kalar has its
own means of scoring and deciding on a victor. Lay your plans, strengthen your
position, then unleash your full power as you summon a tremendous creature of
legend to dominate the arena of Tash- Kalar.

SRP
NPI
In
Dungeon Lords, you are an evil dungeon lord who is trying to build the best
dungeon out there. You hire monsters, build rooms, buy traps and defeat the
do-gooders who wish to bring you down. Each turn, players use a hand of cards
to choose where to place their worker imps. Actions vary from mining gold,
hiring monsters, buying traps etc. Each action has three spots available - with
each spot having different effects (e.g., mining gold lets you mine more gold
in each spot). When using the cards, two cards will become locked and will not
be able to be used next turn.
The
entire game lasts two “game years”, and each year consists of four seasons
(a.k.a. turns). At the start of each season, players see the heroes and events
to come in the following season, allowing them to prepare. At the end of each
season after the first, heroes are allocated to each player according to the
players’ level of evilness. Heroes range from mighty heroes to sneaky thieves.
Each hero has its own power for which the player needs to prepare for. At the
end of each year, the heroes travel into the dungeons to fight.

The
game is still played over two years, but now each year has five rounds instead
of four: winter, spring, summer, autumn and festival season. More time to build
your dungeon, but also more time for adventurers to gather a larger party.
There are new monsters, rooms, and traps to prepare your dungeon for the battle,
but also new nasty spells for the adventurers and sneaky bards who encourage
them to perform so-called “heroic” deeds – not to mention two paladins for each
year, now ready to punish up to two evil players.
Would
you like to push other players toward evil instead of moving yourself toward
good when visiting the city? What about making an investment instead of
traditional gold digging? Or what about repairing conquered tunnels or rooms
instead of digging new ones? Only eight actions are still available to you, but
each season one of those actions is replaced by an alternate set of spaces that
offer new and intriguing options.
And
did we mention that it has recently become fashionable for Dungeon Lords to
have their own personal pets?

uncle’s last will. Spending money faster than all your relatives will not be
enough. To inherit your uncle’s fortune, you must also lose your job! After
all, your uncle’s heritage can’t go to someone who’s employed!
With
this expansion added to Last Will, each player begins the game with a job card
that provides him with a regular income each turn and details a number of
things the player must do in order to get fired. Unlike in real life, it can be
difficult to persuade your employer to give you the old heave-ho. When you miss
work, he’s inclined to be charitable because he liked your uncle and he’s sorry
for your loss. To make him angry, you need to get caught living it up when you
should be working. He won’t sack you straight away, but he will at least dock
your salary. Even your kindly old boss has his limits, though; when you earn
enough demotions to cancel out every line of income, you can discard your
employment card. Congratulations: You have been sacked and are one step closer
to winning the game!
You
will also have a chance to find yourself a good, demanding wife. A wedding is
such a romantic way to spend piles of money in a hurry, right? The expansion
has six nuptial cards, so get down on one knee and ask the question!

Become

are for Dungeon Lords. This means magical, playful, sometimes angry monsters
that constantly desire attention and at the very moment you want them to
demonstrate their qualities to buyers they are sick or they poop. Sometimes you
are even glad that you got rid of them but the profit is unbelievable.
Dungeon
Petz is a standalone game set in the Dungeon Lords universe. The game consists
of several rounds in which players use unusual worker placement mechanisms
(players simultaneously prepare different sized groups of imps in order to play
sooner than others) to prepare themselves for the uneasy task of raising
creature cubs and pleasing their different needs (represented by cards) in
order to sell them as grown and scary creatures to Dungeon Lords. In the
meantime, they also attend various contests in which they show off their pets,
scoring additional points.
