51st State Card Game
$31.95<p><strong>The world you know no longer exists. There is no government. No army. No civilization. The United States has collapsed. And now, 30 years after the war started, new powers finally try to take control over the ruined country. Try to establish a new order. Try to control others. Create a new country, a new State: the 51st State.</strong></p>
<p><em style="color: #666666; font-family: Tahoma;">51st State,</em> the critically acclaimed, post-apocalyptic multi-player card game which debuted at the 2010 Spiel Festival in Essen, Germany.</p>
<p>Players take control of one of four factions vying for control of the post-war remains of a devastated United States. These factions struggle to build their stockpiles of supplies through conquest, trade, and expansion of their territory, until they achieve the stability to become the 51st State – and provide the foundation of a new society.</p>
<p>51st State introduces a new idea – every card in the game can be put into play in three different ways. You can invade a location to gain many resources once, or you can sign a contract with this location to gain one resource every turn, or you can attach the location to your State so you can use its skill. One card, three possibilities. Lots of decisions and choices that matter.</p>
<p>Designed by internationally renowned designer Ignacy Trzewiczek, and set in the Neuroshima universe, <em style="color: #666666; font-family: Tahoma;">51st State</em> features breathtaking artwork and innovative gameplay. Players will have to strategically plan the growth of their faction – Will you use force to gain large, short term benefits? Will you negotiate to gain an ongoing income? Or will you incorporate new locations into your territory? Difficult decisions await the players on every turn.</p> Learn More -

Haggis: The Climbing Card Game
$16.50Out of stock
<p>Haggis is a climbing card game for 2-3 in the same family as Zheng Fen and Big Two. It borrows and recombines elements from its parent games (card combinations, bombs, scoring for cards in hand, scoring for cards collected in tricks) and mixes in equally distributed wild cards and betting that you'll be the first to empty your hand of cards. Sean Ross designed Haggis over a number of years, extensively testing over thousands of hands to create a very engaging and balanced game. Gary Simpson has done a masterful job on the original artwork, that has to be seen to be appreciated.</p>
<p>The 2nd Edition of Haggis will feature the highest quality materials you have come to expect from the top "Euro" game publishers. From the thick, linen finished cards, a practical formed insert and thick box, we have choosen the best manufacturers available to produce this (soon to be) classic game.</p>
<p>There are a number of reviews and session reports that have been posted at board game geek. I’d suggest you have a look, here are few highlights:</p>
<p>Alex Rockwell - "Its pretty brilliant, and you can experience a game in the genre of Tichu, with only 2 or 3 players!"</p>
<p>Justus Pendleton - "My girlfriend and I thoroughly enjoyed Haggis, as should be clear by the number of games we played in quick succession."</p>
<p>Jeff Mays - "Haggis is one of the best two player card games I have encountered. The rules are concise and clearly written, and it is an easy game to teach."</p>
<p>Ryan Metzler - "The wild card play, unique bombing mechanic and interesting scoring make Haggis a game that stands apart from its well-established counterpart (Tichu). People looking for a deep 2-3 player card game will definitely not be disappointed here."</p>
<p>archivists - "I love Haggis and have played hundreds of games"</p>
<p>Tom Shields - "Wonderful & beautiful"</p>
