The SSD can't be in-scale otherwise it'd nearly be 12 times the length of a regular SSD.

That thought has crossed my mind.
The SSD is my fav SW ship, and this is a wonderful 2-foot long representation of it.

Yes. The final announcement was for Munchkin.

Thanks Overread for the link and pick. I thought Dropzone/Dropfleet was dead. Went on their web site and everything was sold out. Wasn't sure if they were going to replace it or not.
Nice to see more is coming. Sadly I couldn't get v2 or Reconquest2. (I think that is the name). Hoping they will reprint them.

My Gencon highlight was playing Godtear with one of the developers, Alex. I got stomped by another demoer, but it was great to get my hands on the game and discuss the design decisions.
Invisible Sun, the new RPG by Monte Cook, was also a blast. I highly recommend it for those who prefer heavy RP and exploration-based gaming.

From what I gather Hawk Wargames hit troubles fullfilling a KS as well as some other things and got merged into TC Combat who now run the management side which has left the HWG developer/creator free on the creative side. I think the process knocked their marketing down a notch for a long while and its yet to fully recover - I really hope they do though as they make some outstandingly detailed models.
(it was kind of surprising that at the same time Spartan Games was having trouble so too was Hawk since both were related in that the Hawk guy was an old SG employee at one time). Automatically Appended Next Post: Also this got overlooked

Love Girl Genius, but Munchkin!... eh. It’s still a pass for me. I don’t think the illustrations by the Foglios are enough to get me to buy; there’re just so many much better games out there.

Black Bases and Grey Plastic Forever:My quaint little hobby blog.
40k- The Kumunga Swarm  (more)
Count Mortimer’s Private Security Force/Excavation Team  (building)
Kabal of the Grieving Widow  (less)
Plus other games- miniature and cardboard both. |
