From master game designer Ron Edwards: "Basically, elfs are scum. They are not ethereal and wise; they are dim-witted, opportunistic little bastards. Their demeanor is that of a 13-year old powergaming munchkin: Kill, loot, party. Repeat. When not in the throes of one of their mental handicaps, elfs run across the world, hacking and slaying for fun and profit. You play one of these losers and try to get your grubby little hands on as much loot as elfinly possible, preferably while hosing your buddies." - Ron Edwards "Suffice to say that our elfs made some extremely dubious moral choices, and came out smelling like roses. Afterwards, my players spent a while…

A modern classic from Gorilla Games. Battlestations is a simultaneous ship-to-ship combat and boarding action board game with light role-playing. You and your friends each play the role of a crew member on a starship that faces whatever grief the referee throws at you. You blast enemies, pull outrageous maneuvers, unlock the secrets of alien cultures, and crank the last bit of juice out of an overtaxed engine while trying not to get yourself, your crew, or your starship blown to bits in the process. Battlestations is available from the store here under Non-HERO Products.

You’re way past glass beads and plastic chips for your gaming counters. You’re ready for something bold and striking, a counter that screams “yes, that’s my game information being tracked right there thank you very much!” Something that sparkles in the light like the beads of perspiration forming on your opponent’s brow as you brush aside their puny efforts aimed at defeating you and prepare to crush them once again.... Okay, you probably don’t take your CCG, CMG, or other gaming that seriously. And you probably haven’t given too much thought about the counters you use for your gaming. After all, your choices have been pretty limited until now. Introducing Cryst…

This is a two-player game that uses a checkerboard-style movement grid. In addition, each player has a large "village" spot on their side of the board that is connected to all four spaces in their back row. Players have seven regular "elf" pieces and one big "stone man" piece. (All pieces are glass beads or colored rocks.) The object of the game is to move all of your elves into your opponent's village. Players move one piece forward one spot on the diagonal matrix each turn. Two elves (one or two colors) may occupy a single space. If the stone man lands on an elf, it sends it back to the owner's village. The game components include a set of glass beads and po…

Gnome Crystals uses a 6x6 grid as the main playing area. Each player receives a bunch of little plastic pieces and 2 large ones (gnome crystals) with an irregular shape. The object is to score the most points by the time the game ends, which happens immediately when someone runs out of pieces to play. A point is scored by having a straight or diagonal arrangement of three crystals of the same color, and a large crystal as part of such an arrangement scores 2 points instead of 1. A line of 4 crystals scores twice, once for each "end" of the row. The game is played by rolling two dice, one for each side of the grid (rows and columns). After rolling the dice, the p…

Halley’s Hold’em™ is a dice based game of odds and luck something along the lines of some poker games in game play with a space casino theme. Players try to be the one with the most star credits by the end of the game. Jason's Note: I enjoy playing 3Sages various "board" games (they're actually cloth mats), especially when I'm traveling, drinking at a bar, or when we don't have enough people at our local game night. One of the great things about this game is that it comes in a "Bags-O-Fun" playmat that you can wear as a pouch or tuck up in your vest pocket. Highly recommended. This product is for sale in the Hero Store here.

Dwarf Stones is an ultra-streamlined fantasy wargame cross-bred with an abstract strategy game. Players start with a fort in one corner of the board. They slowly add armies and spread out across the board (on a defined point-to-point network) to take over mines which allow them to produce gems (which must be transported back to the fort to be useful). Gems may be used to spawn extra units or gain combat bonuses. The game includes defensive terrain bonuses, very simple supply line rules, and stacking limits. Players are eliminated when their fort is taken. Last man standing wins. The game components are a set of glass beads to represent armies and gems and a roll…

I have just recently completed uploading the entire line of Crunch Waffle Enterprises miniatures into the store. There are 47 of them, and they can be accessed by typing “miniature” into the store’s Title Search. Crunch Waffle is an independently owned and operated manufacturer of quality pewter miniatures. As those of you who are fans of painting such things know, it is incredibly difficult for smaller outfits to get their products into distribution, and thus into your FLGS. You probably won’t see these fine products anywhere else. Crunch Waffle offers a fabulously eclectic range of miniatures, including legendary cyrptozoology animals like the Jersey Devil and Feej…

Ken Hite rocks. Many of you are already familiar with Ken's work on such books as Trail of Cthulhu, Suppressed Transmissions, and GURPS Horror. His is a truly unique and unequaled voice in the world of Cthulhu scholarship. Here's what it says on the back of the book: A wide-ranging and friendly journey through H.P. Lovecraft’s tales of cosmic terror and wonder, the Tour de Lovecraft is the ideal companion to the work of the twentieth century’s greatest American horrorist. Kenneth Hite has spent decades reading and re-reading Lovecraft and his heirs, slipping through their forests of verbiage to discover the solid literary ground beneath. With his game desi…

Here's What Is On The Back Cover: Agent Matt Anderson had one of the crappiest jobs in the FBI: tracking down fugitive geeks smuggling in unlicensed fiction from parallel dimensions. But when he stumbles across the body of a dead munchkin in a suspect’s apartment, a conspiracy begins to unravel that leads him on a plane-jumping adventure to the magical Land of Oz… and beyond Here's My Take: this is one of the funniest, wittiest little novels I’ve ever read. It’s as if Sheldon from Big Bang Theory and Gene Hackman’s "Popeye" Doyle character from the French Connection were forced to write a L. Frank Baum novel together… only snarkier. Much snarkier. Ian's …

This is the first of twelve different works of experimental fiction scheduled for release by Blackwyrm in 2009. The Vast White is a dark military fantasy set in a world similar to – yet distinctively different from – our own. It was also written by yours truly and is the first of my Murderer’s Edge duology. Here’s what Harriett Klausner, Amazon’s #1 ranked reviewer, has to say about the book: In Northern al-Muttaqiina Mountains bordering on the Vast White in the Year of Ascension 327, the Sultanate and the Etrisian Empire prepare for war over who annexes the Spice Cities into their monarchy. Both sides covet Salt, the unconquered Spice City that neither has been ab…

“Lux Aeternum: Expanded Setting Guide” explores the futuristic world initially presented in Green Ronin's "True20 Adventure Roleplaying" book. Lux Aeternum is a cinematic science fiction setting that strives to evoke the romanticized spirit of the 17th Century Age of Exploration – a time of sweeping changes, social upheaval, and limitless opportunity. Action, drama, and grand adventure are key elements to any grand tale to be told in this setting. The absence of faster-than-light travel limits the playing field to a handful of star systems and allows this finite area to be fleshed out with a level of detail and complexity not possible in a galaxy-spanning saga. This…
