New Games for December 1 – December 7, 2009

BOARD & CARD GAMES

Rush n’ Crush
When you weld guns and armor onto a race car, you need some real psychos to drive them. But we did it. Why? Because chaos is fun! Break-neck speed and road-rage are not only encouraged, they’re required, in this fast and furious armed racing game! Rush N’ Crush comes complete with “Arcade” mode for the fast and merciless, “Overdrive” mode for the refined driver looking for some finesse, and a modular racetrack with 10 tiles to combine into numerous racetracks.

Poo
Ready to take it like a monkey?! In this fast and furious card game, players take the roles of monkeys having all too much fun doing what monkeys do. Last player standing with at least a little fur still showing wins!

World Of Warcraft TCG: Scourgewar Boosters
The ever-expanding reach of the Lich King has drawn the forces of both the Horde and the Alliance to the frigid lands of Northrend, but they do not know the horrors that await them. The unrelenting forces of the Scourge have risen and they will stop at nothing until the last breath of life has been siphoned from Azeroth! This expansion set for the World of Warcraft TCG introduces all-new content, including mounts, several new keywords, and a new master hero – Kel’Thuzad – as well as full integration of the Death Knight class and an alternate rules set to use with existing World of Warcraft TCG cards.

Tomb: Cryptmaster
Tomb: Cryptmaster is a stand-alone expansion to the dungeon adventure game where each player recruits a unique party and races to clear the most dungeon territory – and live to brag about it! Tomb: Cryptmaster introduces two new boards, 80 new characters, 400 new cards, more spells, items, prayers, and tactics, a revised and expanded rulebook, and the new Cryptmaster deck.

Power Grid: Factory Manager
In Power Grid: Factory Manager, each player owns a factory and tries to earn the most money during the game. To be successful, they must use their workers to buy the best machines and robots at the market and to run the machines most effectively in their factory.

Chrononauts
In Chrononauts, players become Time Travelers who seek to return to their original alternate realities by changing history (done by preventing assassinations, averting disasters, and so on), while simultaneously seeking to gather up the right combination of amazing artifacts, plucked from the future or rescued from the past. The huge deck of 135 cards features a unique 32 card TimeLine deck that’s used to track Ripples and Paradoxes as they are formed, by the actions (and reversed actions) of the Chrononauts.

Chrononauts: The Gore Years
A lot has happened since Chrononauts was published, and the Timeline has slipped out of date. So, how would the past eight years be different if Time Travellers changed the outcome of the 2000 election? Well, for starters, they’d be called the Gore Years! This 11-card expansion brings Chrononauts into the 21st Century with five new TimeLine cards, three Alternate Reality Patches, and three new Chrononaut Character ID cards.

ROLE-PLAYING GAMES

Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay Core Set
Grim and perilous adventures await in the Old World in Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay!

Deadlands: Reloaded Gm Screen
Dead men tell no tales, whether they’ve quit walking or not, and the Weird West is filled with secrets. This three-panel, landscaped screen helps a wily Deadlands Marshal keep his plans close to his chest as well as providing easy reference to eleven of the handiest charts west o’ the Mississippi, including an expansive list of combat options and maneuvers, as well as a new, introductory adventure, “Murder on the Hellstromme Express.”
