Founders of Gloomhaven! New from Cephalofair Games!

Order by Date: April 15, 2018
Release Date: May 2018


CPH0301
Founders of Gloomhaven
$70.00 SRP

Founders of Gloomhaven is a competitive tile-placement, action-selection, city-building game in which each player controls a fantastical race working to build the city of Gloomhaven and gain influence over its residents. This is a standalone game set in the same universe as Gloomhaven. The events, however, take place hundreds of years before Gloomhaven and depict the original construction of the city.

In Founders of Gloomhaven, players use action cards to place resource buildings on the map of the city, use these resources to create more advanced resources, then deliver them to proposed building sites to earn prestige. An individual player, however, cannot do everything on their own because they can import only a small number of resource types, depending on their race. To create more advanced resources, they have to work with other players. 

The game also features an auction mechanism in which players vote periodically to determine which new building proposals come out and where they are placed on the board. Players can also add the influence they've gathered to increase the strength of their vote.

Gloomhaven! New from Cephalofair Games!

Release Date: December 2016
CPH0204
Gloomhaven


$120.00 SRP

Gloomhaven is a game of Euro-inspired tactical combat in a persistent world of shifting motives. Players will take on the role of a wandering adventurer with their own special set of skills and their own reasons for travelling to this dark corner of the world. Players must work together out of necessity to clear out menacing dungeons and forgotten ruins. In the process they will enhance their abilities with experience and loot, discover new locations to explore and plunder, and expand an ever-branching story fueled by the decisions they make.  This is a legacy game with a persistent and changing world that is ideally played over many game sessions. After a scenario, players will make decisions on what to do, which will determine how the story continues, kind of like a “Choose Your Own Adventure” book. Playing through a scenario is a cooperative affair where players will fight against automated monsters using an innovative card system to determine the order of play and what a player does on their turn.

Forge War is a competitive game of economic management and spatial reasoning in a high fantasy theme. Players must undertake quests set forth by the king to slay fierce foes like goblins, assassins and a mighty red dragon. But weapons and adventurers don’t come easily! Players must successfully navigate the kingdom’s mine to gather metals and precious gems, then head to the market to get their hands on weapon designs so they can forge their own implements of victory!
