ACD Exclusives from Aporta Games! Capital Lux and Avenue!

Release Date: December 2016

Check out these ACD Exclusives!

APG003
Capital Lux

$18.00 SRP

Will you play citizens into your own hometown for future points, or contribute them to the capital  and benefit from their special abilities?

In Capital Lux you always balance on a razor's edge. So will you take risks? Bluff? Or follow a carefully laid plan? The decision is yours in this unique and exciting card game, featuring beautiful art by American painter Kwanchai Moriya.

APG004
Avenue

$18.00 SRP

Avenue is a quick and exciting family game that can be played with up to ten players with very little downtime. Players draw a network of roads on their player sheet, trying to connect their farms and castles to grapes. Each round, a card is drawn that shows which type of road the players must draw. Some cards are marked as scoring cards, and when the fourth scoring card is drawn, a new farm is scored. The order in which the farms are scored is revealed one-by-one throughout the game, so players must constantly adapt their strategies.

When a scoring takes place, you score points for every grape that your farm is connected to—but you shouldn't be too greedy because if a farm is not connected to more grapes than your previous farm, you lose points! Scoring many points early will therefore make things difficult later. This keeps the game exciting until the end.

The universe of Warriors & Traders is set in the Dark Ages of Europe and you will choose a country to grow into a great empire.
