Chthulu Wars: Shaggai Map Expansion & Planet Apocalypse releases—New from Petersen Games!

Street Date: August 16, 2019 PSGCWM11 Chthulu Wars: Shaggai Map Expansion $49.99 SRP This new map represents the planet of Shaggai, annihilated centuries ago. It is, of course, the original home of the Insects from Shaggai (who made their appearance in Onslaught Two). In those days, the horrendous hellworld Ghroth wandered too near Shaggai, and initiated the process that resulted in Shaggai’s complete destruction. The map of course is set during the time of Shaggai’s eradication, which is represented by the Worms of Ghroth – horrendous tools of woe which spread across the surface, leaving oblivion in their wake. The map is divided into hex-shaped areas, representing the insectile nature of the world’s native inhabitants. Some are oceans, other land, and the game starts with a single Worm of Ghroth – a harbinger of ruin. As the game progresses, each Doom phase existing Worms of Ghroth tend to annihilate the areas they are on, and new Worms are spawned. Eradicated areas actually generate power, and can even benefit the players. For example, if your controlled gate gets eradicated, you earn an Elder Sign. For each unit that is eradicated, you earn 1 Power. The Power gain may not be enough to make up for losing a big monster or Great Old One, but at least it helps. And, after all, the destruction has been telegraphed by the presence of a Worm – so you had your chance to escape! The Shaggai map has other fun elements. For example, you can "jump over" Eradicated areas, and thus access the map more easily. This does cost a unit though, so be sure to include someone cheap to sacrifice to the hungry void. Also, if the map deteriorates too far, the game can end regardless of whether anyone has 30 Doom yet. In such a case, all players add up their Doom and Elder Signs and see who is victorious.

PSGPA Planet Apocalypse Core Game $99.99 SRP Planet Apocalypse is an exciting cooperative game for 1-5 players. You are post-apocalypse heroes confronting the hordes of hell! Every game is different as you battle demons from the circles of hell, and in the end, strive to take down their demon lord! The game has multiple mechanics that change the game every time you play. Every hero has a tech tree that evolves over the course of the battle. Demons change powers based on their legion. Each terrifying demon lord changes the battle field, forcing players to work together to defeat the ever encroaching beast. Eventually the heroes must fight their greatest adversary, the demon lord itself. Each entrance into the lord’s space starts a special battle "Hell-time" sequence. During this, the heroes will have to pool resources and to inflict as much damage as possible before retreating to regroup and reengage, eventually resulting in an epic climatic battle against the leader of the infernal forces. Feel the pressure of the invasion as the demons steadily approach the last bastion of humanity. Randomly generate demonic hordes as you close the distance between yourself and their lord by exploring the fog of war. Each time the lord advances more powerful demonic units spawn, countered only by increasing each hero’s tech tree. 1-5 players Ages 14+ 60-90 minute play time
