This stand-alone game is set in the popular Imperial Settlers universe and offers beautiful illustrations, easy-to-grasp rules, and satisfying gameplay full of chain reactions and engine-building synergies.

In Imperial Miners, players create their own mines by playing cards into their personal tableau. They start from the surface and develop downward. Each time a card is added to their mine, it activates itself and all the cards above it, rewarding a player with satisfying chain reactions and combos. The cards belong to six different factions and offer various strategies. Players mix different factions in their mines to achieve the best results. While developing their mines, players also advance on progress boards. During set-up, three out of the six available progress boards are randomly chosen for the game. These boards each offer a different strategic focus. Throughout the game, players advance to gain additional bonuses that help them develop their tableaus, activate the synergies between cards, gain victory points, and achieve even more satisfying combos. The combination of progress boards influences strategies and makes the game different each time you play. Imperial Miners offers impressive replayability thanks to its wide range of different cards and modular progress boards.

Why do the people so strongly oppose the cathedral being rebuilt? And those seas constantly assaulted by storms...

It is the time of year when the big Hollywood studios are greenlighting new screenplays to become the next summer blockbusters. Screenwriters - often working in teams - are desperately trying to get in the room with powerful executives to pitch their ideas. If they are hired, the job can earn them millions.

This game takes place in a Hollywood boardroom. Through marketing research, the studio has identified a specific hero/villain combination it is set on making its next movie about. Beyond that, the big wigs are not taking any chances: the story structure will be a tried-and-true archetype. It's the same one followed by modern classics like STAR WARS, THE LION KING, TITANIC, and about every other blockbuster over the last 40 years.

Engines roar through the night sky as you see clouds of dust coming your way. Hot tires screech across the road as hundreds of riders wreck havoc to anything on their path. They are followed by heavily armoured warriors, intimidating everyone with a cacophony of metallic sounds made by their chains, net launchers, and other weapons of post apocalyptic war.

First, the riders are going to surround and entangle you with their web of steel. Melee fighters will follow soon after, bringing pain and destruction. Even if you are going to defend yourself, even if you manage defeat one of them, more replace their fallen comrade.

Death is coming your way. You can try to run. You can try to hide. But sooner or later, you are going to fall into their hands. This is not your average gang ? this is Iron Gang, a brutal group that has perfected the art of the hunt from the back of the steel steed.

Neuroshima Hex: Iron Gang introduces a new army pack to Neuroshima Hex!, and both the HQ and certain units feature a new "chain" ability. Chain connects two units with that ability if there is a straight line between them, and it allows them to target and hit any unit on that line.

The main mechanic of this new army is managing gambles. Discarding tokens earns gambles, which can later be spent on activating the traits of the units on the board, as their abilities are not free. The Headhunter, for example, has a regular ranged attack, but only spending a gamble will trigger the ability to use a sniper shot. If the trait is not paid, it simply will not be active.

Merchant Guild soldiers usually have low initiative - this is important because the cost of activating a given perk is equal to the initiative of this unit. Activating the Headhunter Sniper will cost one gamble, but another soldier with initiative 2 will cost two gambles. The maximum number of gambles that can be managed at a time is 7, so we should have quite a lot of room for maneuver.

Pirates is a next expansion to Neuroshima Hex 3.0, the iconic area control game about the world of Neuroshima. A pirate flag fluttered over the Caribbean islands where King Contamination and Queen Neo-Jungle would rule. The gangsters of the seas have a few surprises for their enemies...

The new army plays by unprecedented rules, extending the standard Battlefield with special Water Spaces, to which only Pirates have access. The large quality of battle tiles allows them to control the pace of the game, which is crucial when planning in the headquarters location throughout the game. Pirates weakness is the low Initiative and lack of Toughness, as well as the negligible Mobility of non-floating units. Remember that the Pirate Army cannot be used when playing with the Expanded Battlefield rules (5 and 6 player games, or expanded 4 player games).

A New big box edition of the best-selling strategy game from Portal Games with tons of promotional materials and new graphics is coming. Neuroshima Hex! 3.0 The Year of Moloch limited edition contains new elements: HQ markers, reference charts for all armies, a plastic insert for 19 armies, a Moloch origins campaign, a comprehensive FAQ booklet, 4 armies in new design and in pre-orders an additional Borgo bust figurine, and hardcover Artbook.

Neuroshima Hex! is a strategy board game set in the post-apocalyptic world of Neuroshima. Each player leads one of the four Armies: Borgo, Hegemony, Moloch, or Outpost. Each Army deck consists of 34 tiles including Warriors, Modules, and Actions. You begin the game with your HQ at 20 hit points and wage war against your opponent in a back and forth strategic battle as you place and manipulate your tiles. You win once you've destroyed your opponent's HQ or once a player runs out of tiles and your HQ has less damage than your opponent's.

They explore the land to gather resources, construct shelter to protect themselves from the weather elements, build tools, and fight wild animals.

The Necromancer leads an undead army toward the stronghold walls. A powerful artifact lies within the stronghold. A magical item imbued with immense energy. The Necromancer's powers are weakening, and his magical essence is fading with each passing moment. He will regain his powers if he manages to take the castle by storm and claim the artifact. Thus, if the undead army succeeds in breaching the stronghold within eight turns, it will capture the artifact and attain victory. If not...well, if not, the Necromancer's powers will fade completely and the undead army will turn to dust.

Stronghold: Undead is a re-balancing of the original Stronghold: Undead expansion for the second edition of Stronghold that is now a standalone game. It includes a new board with new paths to siege the castle, undead mechanisms, and more ways for both sides to secure their victory!

Thorgal: The Board Game is a cooperative storybook adventure game for 1-4 players aged 14+ designed by Joanna Kijanka, Jan Maurycy, and Rafal Szyma. Players take on the roles of Thorgal, his wife Aaricia, their son Jolan, and Kriss - a deadly female warrior - , and go on a series of adventures.

The game consists of 7 stand-alone scenarios, each taking roughly 90-120 minutes of play. Scenarios do not form a campaign nor have any legacy features, so they can be played by different playgroups and over an extended period of time.

Thorgal: The Board Game comes with a book of maps. Each scenario is played on a different map that players explore while fulfilling scenario goals and promises completely different adventures, hidden opportunities, and vivid characters. Players are free to choose whether they travel in one group or split to cover more areas at the same time. They also perform side quests that might help them win a scenario.

Another important feature in the game is the storybook containing narrative descriptions of the encounters that Characters make in each scenario. The adventures described in the book are specific to each scenario and Character, yet a lot of them are randomized within a scenario, offering higher replayability and allowing for repeated play. There are also Side Plots players can pursue to gain benefits and reveal additional pieces of the story.

Thorgal: The Board Game, while having a strong narrative element, offers a brand new, unique action selection mechanism. In this new mechanism, actions have varying power depending on which other actions have already been taken. Players carefully plan their strategy and sequence of actions taken, as this directly impacts the strength of the effect of each action. This creates an interesting decision space and makes each turn important for everyone at the table.

Another important mechanic involves Character development. Each character gains experience during the game and advances their abilities. This dynamic progress allows players to make meaningful decisions about how to develop their hero in the game. Characters gather resources and craft objects to help them survive in the dangerous world.

Vienna Connection is a standalone game inspired by the game mechanisms of Detective: A Modern Crime Board Game. In this game, players take on the roles of CIA agents sent to Europe in 1977 during the Cold War to investigate the mysterious death of James Werner, an American citizen murdered in Vienna.

The international plot involves various secret agencies, and players will travel around Europe visiting a dozen destinations and discovering secrets. Vienna Connection, although inspired by Detective, is a standalone game with new rules and game mechanisms that bring the spy theme to life. Players will manage resources (such as informants, bribes, and pieces of information), decode reports (including secret messages, codes, and wiretapped conversations), and will have to outsmart enemy spy agencies.
