Today: 1st Edition D&D with Ron @ 6pm; Boardgame Learn n’ Play @ 6-10pm; Lynnwood Magic MeetUp: EDH and more! @ 6:30pm. Tuesday: Beer Tasting from 6-8pm; Worker Placement Games with Trent @ Beth @6:30pm; Catanamaniacs @ 7:30pm (gearing up for the big tournament on 9/20!). Another Gen Con has come and gone and this one was full of exciting news and announcements. We’ve read through the press releases and the blogs to find you the ones we thought were most interesting: Fantasy Flight Games went crazy and announced some huge upcoming releases: Star Wars fans got the most love from Imperial Assault, essentially Star Wars Descent, and Star Wars: Armada, another miniatures battles game, this time throwing us into the middle of massive fleet combats (both coming in early 2015). http://ift.tt/1pAJNP8 & http://ift.tt/1mdcuNN Just before Gen Con, they also let us know about X-Com: The Board Game, which will revolutionize co-operative games by having many of the board actions performed by your tablet or phone. Much better than an audio CD! http://ift.tt/1pAJNPd They also announced an expansion for Eldritch Horror, Mountains of Madness, and the 6th Wave of ships for Star Wars X-Wing Miniatures Game, focusing on rouges and bounty hunters. Here’s the link for the full run-down: http://ift.tt/1mdcs8D And not to leave out the Android: Netrunner players, they also displayed Order & Chaos, the next Deluxe expansion for the game. http://ift.tt/1pAJNPg Other people besides FFG did things too. Upper Deck is bringing back it VS. game as a ‘Living Card Game’. IDW Publishing announced that they are bringing back one of my (Tim’s) favorite boardgames of all time, Fire & Axe, a brilliant game of Viking plunder, exploration and trading. Steve Jackson Games is going to bring us, what else, but more Munchkin! This time, Munchkin Steampunk illustrated by legendary local artist Phil Foglio. We’ll be eagerly waiting for that until mid-2015. There was of course, much more going on, but these are the ones we’ve been dying to share. Needless to say, look for all of these games in the store as soon as they are available. August 18, 2014 Hello world! June 4, 2013 What’s Happening Lynnwood!
