BOARD & CARD GAMES

Agricola Gamer Deck Expansion
This 120-card expansion was developed by gamers from the Agricola online community.

Killer Bunnies Quest Chocolate Deck
It's incredible (but not edible), the Chocolate Booster Deck adds 55 new cards to your existing Killer Bunnies and the Quest for the Magic Carrot set, including the bizarre antics of the Omega Series cards, the Arrow Kite mechanic of the Psi Series cards, and the literary parodies of the Nu Series cards.

Thunderstone Doomgate Legion

Merkator
In this Euro-style game focusing on the rise of Hamburg and the merchant trade during the Thirty Years' War 1618-1648, different nations offer contracts to the players to make certain they have a steady supply of goods. Be at the right place at the right time to collect and deliver!

New Games for December 13 - 19, 2010

BOARD & CARD GAMES

Isla Dorada
Legends of unimaginable treasure surround the mysterious island of Isla Dorada. Several ancient civilizations once carved out a mighty empire on its shores, but the passage of time and the ravaging of wild beasts have driven them to ruin, leaving behind priceless artifacts and confusing maps to their hidden locations. The year is 1934, and your expedition has crash landed on this exotic island. Your chance for infinite riches is within your grasp. But you don't want to share the loot with the rest of the expedition, do you? Isla Dorada lets you guide your expedition through hazardous terrain and hostile territory, exploring the wonders of Isla Dorada while you compete to find the most treasure among your fellow explorers. But, watch your step! If the Island doesn't get you, your companions might!

DC Heroclix 75th Anniversary Boosters
DC Comics' extraordinary body of characters - from the earliest Golden Age heroes to the most modern - come to life in 3D HeroClix form! Commemorating the rich history as well as the exciting present of DC Comics, the DC HeroClix: 75th Anniversary Booster showcases more than 60 characters with exciting new sculpts and dynamic Special Powers, and showcases iconic stories and themes like Knightfall and the Death of Superman that shook comics to their core, as well as members of The White Lantern Corps - straight from the pages of DC Comics mega-hit Blackest Night!

Star Munchkin Space Ships
Star Munchkins are more over-powered than ever with Star Munchkin: Space Ships, which allows players to Captain the Horsefly, the Starfurry, or the USS Secondprize. Plus, they can buff their ships with a Quad-Mounted Laser or a Bridge, and let their new Sidekick, Otto, do the flying for them.

Hobbit Board Game
Join Bilbo Baggins as he ventures forth from the Shire on a perilous and legendary journey! Designed by Reiner Knizia, The Hobbit is a board game of bidding, chance, and treasure for 2-5 players. Taking on the roles of dwarves, players must guide Bilbo strategically on his quest to plunder the dragon Smaug's lair. But beware! Smaug is descending upon Laketown, seeking to ruin your quest. Can you lead Bilbo Baggins to the dragon's lair?

Agricola Tannenbaum Deck
When the farmers are done with their daily tasks and gather round the warmth of their hearth, stories are told of revenants and werewolves, unicorns and witches, and faeries and other creatures of the wood. And those who venture into the forest the next day to fell some trees might remember some of the tales... and shudder. A worthy follow-up to the X-Deck, this 24-card deck is another not-entirely-serious expansion to Uwe Rosenberg's Agricola.

Agricola The Goodies Expansion
Over the past years, many small expansions for Agricola were released, mostly in German language, as well as deluxe wooden pieces to complement the game. The Goodies Expansion contains: the legendary X-Deck containing 24 cards with alien encounters all over the farm; the O-Deck was created under the guidance of the Austrian Games Academy; the C-Deck based on famous people, places, and historic events from the Czech Republic; the looney L-Deck; all five double-sided theme boards (Western, Spring, Autumn, Winter, and Mars); a sheet with 70 stickers (35 adults, 33 children, one alien, and even a werewolf); plus a slew of Wooden Meeples.

Save Doctor Lucky Game
A cold night in the Atlantic. An errant iceberg, a titanic cruise ship, and one very lucky old man! Doctor Lucky is a charismatic and well-respected philanthropist with a heart of gold. Of course, you secretly hate the old coot, and you're probably going to try to kill him someday. But killing him aboard a sinking ship would be pointless. So you've decided to save his life instead - and do it while someone else is looking! That way, even if you go down with the ship, you'll at least go down in history! It's all aboard for crazy mayhem and boat-sinking fun for the whole twisted family in this new deluxe edition of Save Doctor Lucky, featuring a full-color, multi-piece game board, a deck of 96 cards, an informative rulebook, and pawns and stands for six players and Doctor Lucky himself.

Earth Reborn
Two human factions battle it out in a post-apocalyptic Earth in this modular, tile-based, miniatures board game.

Merchants & Marauders
In Merchants and Marauders, players take on the role of an influential merchant or a fearless pirate, both searching for their fame and fortune in the Caribbean during the Golden Age of Piracy. How you choose to play your luck, tactics, cunning, and negotiation skills will decide whether your captain gains eternal glory and immense wealth - or finds his wet grave under the stormy surface of the Caribbean Sea!

Defenders of the Realm
Our Liege is in desperate hour! From what grievous cause have these accursed races arisen? Orcs, Dragons, Demons, and the Dead make haste towards Monarch City. The King and Countryside of Monarch City is in need of valiant Heroes! Will you answer the King's call? Designed by Richard Launius (Arkham Horror) and legendary fantasy artist, Larry Elmore, Defenders of the Realm is a cooperative fantasy board game where players embark on a journey to defend the countryside, repair the tainted lands, and defeat the four creature factions before one of them enters the city.

ROLE-PLAYING GAMES

Bones Us & Our Dice
Featuring contributions by the likes of game designers Mike Selinker, Kenneth Hite, and Keith Baker, writer/actor Wil Wheaton, and writers Ray Fawkes and James Lowder, these are essays and anecdotes about the ways dice make us crazy, about the stakes we play for, and the thrill we get from not knowing what the next roll will bring.

Shadowrun Spells & Chrome Anthology
The urban fantasy world of Shadowrun returns with Spells & Chrome, featuring 17 new tales of life in a dark, dystopian future, where magic and the mythic races of elf, dwarf, orc, and troll have risen again, thrusting themselves into a technological world of cyberware, smartguns, and the matrix.

Vampire Requiem New Wave Requiem
Do you remember the 80s? Not that bubble-gum garbage you see on those so-called "music networks," but the real 80s? World War III was always on the horizon while sex, drugs, and money flowed like a river of blood right to us. Vampires were everywhere. The Masquerade was at its thinnest point, but we didnÕt care because the world was ours. Those were good times. This Vampire: The Requiem sourcebook offers a brief historical look at America in the 1980s - from a Kindred perspective - with a story set in 1983 Chicago, complete with a pre-generated coterie.

GURPS 4th Ed Low Tech
From the Stone Age to the Age of Sail, Low-Tech covers the basic tools used by historical adventurers and those still used by modern survivalists and post-apocalypse survivors when the high-tech toys fail. From antlers, rawhide, and stone knives, to warhammers, heavy mail, and early submarines, this GURPS 4th Edition sourcebook features information on everyday items and tools of every trade, as well as skills and traits that let adventurers make the best use of their equipment.

Gamemastering
Gamemastering provides both beginning and experienced gamemasters with instructions that are usually neglected in roleplaying game books: How to tailor the game to the group? How to prepare a game in no time? Can one learn to improvise? How to create and structure adventures? These and other questions are answered in detailed manner, complete with directions, exercises, and examples.

These scenarios require the Eastern Front expansion and Breakthrough kit of board maps to play.

Battletech A Time of War
It is the 31st century. Mankind has spread to the stars and spawned titanic stellar empires, each controlling hundreds of worlds across a thousand light years and beyond. Yet the sins of man have followed him from the cradle of humanity. Political machinations of feudal lords plunge whole sectors into war, while unscrupulous merchant starship captains smuggle weapons to their own factions enemies, and greedy military commanders demand tribute from worlds they're protecting: it is a time of war. What empire will you swear allegiance to, and how will you become a legend? The fifth core rulebook in the BattleTech line, A Time of War is designed to mesh with the core rules for the BattleTech war game as described in Total Warfare and the rest of the core game series.

Daring Tales of the Space Lanes Compendium

Interface Zero is a game without barriers; a setting where you can be artificially intelligent robots, vat-grown simulacrum, transgenic hybrids, or just plain old flesh and blood humans. You can jack into the world around you and program it to suit your needs, implant cyberware in your body, interface with machines, fly hover craft, golemmechs, jump bikes, and even hover tanks and Low Altitude Vehicles complete with the latest weapons and cutting edge VTOL or anti-gravity propulsion systems. Interface Zero is more than just a game setting, it is a toolbox you can use, adding or dropping whichever elements you wish to create the sci-fi game world of your dreams!

Savage Worlds War/Dead Chapter One
Where were you on the day the Earth died? An unexplained cataclysm is infecting the world. Millions are dying and rising as flesh-consuming ghouls. Entire cities are roaming graveyards, and even the countryside is overrun with creatures in search of living flesh. In this first chapter in the War of the Dead adventure series, you begin in the first days of the outbreak, trapped aboard the maiden voyage of a state-of-the-art cruise ship that quickly becomes a floating graveyard. The military can't stop the spread of the infection, the government has relocated to the Rocky Mountains, and those remaining are banding together for survival. Can you survive in a world looking to eat you and turn you into another walking corpse?

CthulhuTech GM Reference Screen Accessory

Black Friday Sale & Thanksgiving Hours/Comics Shipping

It's that time of year again, and Rogues Gallery is doing our third annual Black Friday sale on Friday, November 26th, the day after Thanksgiving! All purchases in the store will earn bonus gift certificates, and a chance to win graphic novels and copy of City of Heroes: Going Rogue for PC/Mac.

From the time we open (10 AM) until the time we close (10 PM) on Friday, November 26th, any purchase you make will also earn you bonus holiday gift certificates. For every $25 you spend, you’ll get $5 on a gift certificate, and you can break those up into individual $5 gift certificates, one big gift certificate with the whole amount or any other combination you choose. So for example, if you spend $100, you’ll get $20 in our special holiday gift certificates.

This year, every $25 spent will also earn customers a ticket in the raffle that will be held on Saturday, November 27th to give away five copies of City of Heroes: Going Rogue Complete Collection for PC/Mac and a handful of graphic novels that we've gathered throughout the year, including volumes of DMZ, Thor, Uncanny X-Men, Invincible and more.

So come on in and get a little extra bang for your holiday-shopping buck. Or pick up something for yourself and get some bonus money to give away as gifts. But make sure and stop in for this one-day event!

Boring Rules Stuff:
Just like our regular gift certificates, these have no expiration date, and can be used for anything in the store. We’ll be using these throughout the holiday season. They cannot be used on the day of purchase, but can be used as early as Saturday, November 27th.

The amount used to calculate bonus gift certificates is the pre-tax value of merchandise (within reason - a $24.99 or $24.95 item will get you the $5 gift certificate). $5 is given for each full $25, not a fraction thereof.

We will be closed on Thursday, November 25th for Thanksgiving. In addition, we will not be holding D&D Encounters on Thanksgiving week. Instead, we will be open longer on Thursday, December 9th to provide for a double-sized Encounters session.

In addition, due to the Thanksgiving holiday, new comics will be delayed from Wednesday, December 8th to Thursday, December 9th. There will be no delay the week of Thanksgiving, comics will ship normally on Wednesday, November 24th.

BOARD & CARD GAMES

Munchkin Go Up a Level
Munchkin: Go Up A Level is a "maintenance release" designed to replace cards from the sets that Munchkin players already have, and bringing them up to date with the changes to cards and rules that started with Munchkin 19th printing - that's 132 cards, in total, spanning the entire Munchkin line

Frag Gold Edition FTW
Frag Gold Edition: FTW introduces new weapons, two new maps (which can be used side-by-side with the gameboard from Frag Gold, for nearly ten square feet of arena), two new types of terrain, and two new targets. Add the new scenarios, including the classic Last Man Standing, and FTW is primed to live up to its name!

Munchkin Santas Revenge
"The Munchkin was sleeping all snug in his bed, when Santa came back with a BOOT TO THE HEAD!" Hot on the heels of Munchkin: Waiting for Santa comes the inevitable sequel, Munchkin: SantaÕs Revenge! Santa is back and he wants to get even, with new monstrous friends and a bag full of new holiday treasures for little munchkins everywhere! Each expansion pack contains 15-cards, offered in 10-count displays.

Zombie Survival Game
The mysterious event that has animated the dead has also given them an unhealthy appetite - for your brains! The only way to survive is to fortify your house and make your stand! How long can you survive? In Zombie Survival, you choose your provisions to survive a zombie apocalypse by first selecting items to place in your house, including weapons, lumber, gas, first aid, etc. Then, your fears are brought to light as the zombies venture forth, tearing down your barricades and creeping in. You may have a chance to make it to town for additional supplies, hopefully avoiding the zombies there, leaving your family to defend against the walking dead. But, did you prepare for power outages, contaminated water, sickness, and fatigue?

ROLE-PLAYING GAMES

D&D Warlord & Rogue Token Sets
Each set contains many tokens and tiles, as well as an invisibility stand-in for your Player Character's miniature, plus a Character Status Tile (a handy reference for variable stats), Action Point Tile (a reminder for players to make an extraordinary move), Light Source token, Bloodied token, and Dying token. The set also includes personalized Dragonscale-shaped tokens for your character.

Oz Dark & Terrible
Oz: Dark & Terrible is a vision of Oz that would give L. Frank Baum nightmares. The Emerald City is a dystopian steampunk metropolis ruled by the Wizard in eternal opposition to the magicians of Oz. The Witches rule the four main realms, but whether they are Good or Wicked is entirely dependent upon your point of view. Do you have the courage, heart, and brains to walk this dark and terrible Yellow Brick Road to oblivion?

COC Masks of Nyarlathotep
At last the stars are almost right. Soon Nyarlathotep's plans will come to fruition. Then the world will be changed irrevocably - but not quite yet. Pesky human investigators have learned much.

Horrifying deeds and dangerous sorcery dog those who dare attempt to unravel the fate of the Carlyle Expedition.

With new career options, cargoes, and ships, Merchant Prince is an invaluable companion to all Traveller players.

Doctor Who: Aliens and Creatures
In the vast expanse of space wait creatures beyond the imagination. Mutants housed in impenetrable armor, vast criminal families that disguise themselves in the skins of their victims, and thousands of cloned soldiers ready to conquer and crush. This supplement for the Doctor Who: Adventures in Time and Space roleplaying game details many of the creatures faced in the Doctor's latest adventures including the Cybermen, the Cult of Skaro, Davros, the Weeping Angels, and the Hath, as well as additional rules for creating your own creatures both as enemies or as playable characters.

Pathfinder Chronicles Misfit Monsters Redeemed
Over the course of its decades-long history, fantasy gaming has produced countless monsters both terrifying and alien, some pulled from mythology and others sprung full-formed from the twisted imaginations of their creators. Yet as with any idea, not every monster can be a winner. Or can it? With Misfit Monsters Redeemed, Paizo Publishing has taken 10 of the most notoriously bad monsters in RPG history—the lamest, most hated, and flat-out silliest creatures in the genre—and attempted to make them fun allies and adversaries for players and Game Masters alike. Each monster comes complete with updated statistics for the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, lengthy ecologies explaining how the monsters behave and why they are the way they are, tips on how Game Masters can use them in a campaign, notes on how to fit the monsters into the world of the Pathfinder campaign setting or your own home game, and more.

Champions Villains V1 Master Villain
A good hero needs fiendish villains to fight - and the Champions Universe has all the villains you could want! Champions Villains Volume I covers master villains like Dr. Destroyer, Mechanon, and Teleios, and every other major world-threatening mastermind of the Champions Universe!

Second Gamma World Game Demo Added!

Response to the new Gamma World and our Gamma World day was overwhelmingly positive, and we've had a lot of requests for more, so we're going to be running another Gamma World game on Sunday, December 5th!

The game will run from approximately noon to 5 PM, and will be a different adventure from the one that was run on Gamma World Game Day. We will have only one table running, with a capacity for six players, so send an email to roguesgallerytx@gmail.com if you'd like to sign up! We'll take alternates past the first six players, but we do ask, due to the high demand, that you only sign up to play if you're fairly sure you can make it, so that we don't wind up turning away interested folks and then having empty chairs.

No purchase is required, character generation will be done at the table, although players are welcome to bring their 1st level Gamma World character from Game Day or one of their own campaigns if they'd like.

Find out with the DC HeroClix Brightest Day Action Pack! This action pack includes seven highly-detailed, 3D miniatures, each with a character card (Aquaman, Martian Manhunter, Hawkgirl, Captain Boomerang, Osiris, Firestorm, Deadman, each in their new, Brightest Day costumes) and two Brightest Day-themed maps.

Red Dragon Inn: Gambling? I'm In!
In The Red Dragon Inn: Gambling? I'm In!, players can play out an actual round of gambling when they play the "Gambling? I'm In!" card! Even better, the card games can be played as standalone games, or as part of your RPG or LARP campaigns. The game comes complete with a 93-card Rogues and Warriors Deck, a bunch of 6-sided dice, coin tokens, debt and loan tokens, and rules for at least seven games!

Hecho Card Game
Trade! Build! Win! In this fast-paced trading and building game, contractors are pitted against one another competing for various construction projects. Use materials from the community scrapyard and trade with one another for the right combination of cards to complete available projects.

Globalization
Build your global empire... one company at a time! As the head of a multi-national corporation with one goal in mind - to make money - players in Globalization attempt to outbid their competitors to acquire businesses within six different industries and grow their conglomerate. Streamline operating costs, build additional factories, sue your competitors, or take one of your subsidiaries public for big returns! Your corporate strategy will impact which companies you buy and how to take your corporation worldwide. The first to reach a billion in net worth wins!

Illuminati: Mutual Assured Distraction

Tapping into today's headlines, Illuminati: Mutual Assured Distraction introduces 18 "New World Order" cards to the classic Illuminati game, as well as five special cards to trigger, add, or remove NWO effects.

Munchkin Quest Portal Kombat
Munchkin Quest players love exploring the dungeon almost as much as they love backstabbing their rivals and taking their stuff, and with the new Portal links in Munchkin Quest: Portal Kombat, it's easier than ever! Two rooms with the same color Portal are linked, even across the dungeon, so you can sneak up on your foes or make a break for the Entrance when people least expect it.

Kings & Things

ROLE-PLAYING GAMES

100 Horror Adventure Seeds
This roleplaying supplement contains 100 generic horror plots for use with your horror games. Each plot consists of a premise, three twists, and an epilogue.

Shadowrun Darkest Hour Dawn o/t Artifacts
Sixth World scholars have long hypothesized the cyclical nature of magic. For years corporations, collectors and other factions have spent fortunes hunting down surviving relics of this mythical age. The shadows whisper of lost lore and a secret history to the world. A privileged few have come into possession of ancient items of great power and mysterious purpose, artifacts from before recorded history. Now it’s your turn… Eighteen months ago, the Phaistos Disk was stolen from the Herakleion Museum in Athens. Now, Mr. Johnson needs you to find it and bring it back. The hunt will take the runners through the shadows of Europe, and lead to interactions with smugglers, art dealers, and archaeologists. If they survive Interpol, Aztechnology, and an eccentrically violent shadowrunner team, they may just learn who is behind the hunt and why. Darkest Hour is the third chapter of the Dawn of the Artifacts storyline. This continuing storyline explores the secret history of Shadowrun, and offers clues to the true mastermind behind the hunt for the artifacts

Battletech Jihad Hot Spots Terra
Tearing Down the Walls! For more than ten years, the Word of Blake's Jihad has engulfed the states of the Inner Sphere and the invading Clans in chaos and fire. Reeling from attacks on all fronts, realms have fought one another while the Word's masters built a powerful Protectorate around humanity's home: Terra. But with the rise of a resourceful rebel leader, Devlin Stone, the collective might of the Great Houses and rival Clans have united for an all-out assault against the Protectorate - one that can only end when humanity's home is free once again! Seen from the eyes of those who fight and die in this epic struggle, Jihad Hot Spots: Terra includes articles and intelligence excerpts from across the Inner Sphere, along with additional rules and campaign tracks for both BattleTech campaigns played using the Total Warfare and A Time of War game rules. This sourcebook also provides a rare, in-depth look at the Terran system itself, including the history and varied cultures who live on these most revered worlds.

Cthulhu Dice Bag
When Cthulhu eats your sanity, you're in trouble. But when he eats your dice, he'll give them back. The Cthulhu Dice Bag is soft plush, with far more eyes, tentacles, and wings than any ordinary dice bag. He'll hold dozens of ordinary six-siders or non-Euclidean polyhedrons in his zippered pouch. Or, of course, Sanity tokens from Cthulhu Dice. Or cursed jewels, or gravel, or bus tokens, or all of them together. Just remember that to get them out, you have to put your hand inside Cthulhu. If you are okay with that, this is the perfect dice bag for you. Using the Cthulhu Dice Bag in summoning rituals is not recommended, but mostly because summoning Cthulhu is really a bad idea. Just let him hold your dice.

Exalted 2 Glories of the Most High
The Secrets of the Incarnae Revealed! Glories of the Most High reveals many secrets of these higher powers, and a slew of new materials to use in your Exalted series including dozens of new Charms as well as additional secrets, rites, characters, and errata.

New Games for September 27 - October 10, 2010

BOARD & CARD GAMES

Magic: The Gathering Scars of Mirrodin
The Corrosion Begins! Scars of Mirrodin heralds the latest expansion block for Magic:The Gathering.

Art of A Song of Ice and Fire V1
From the sands of Dorne to the frozen north, Westeros is a realm of picturesque landscapes, immense strongholds, and captivating characters. Since its debut, George R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire series has left these images indelibly imprinted in the minds of millions of readers. Now, some of the finest fantasy artists in the world have come together to offer their take on this rich and vibrant setting. Serving as a reprint of an earlier edition, The Art of George R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice & Fire, Volume 1 features almost 200 pages of scenes, characters, and landscapes from the novels, as well as a foreword written by George R.R. Martin himself.

Dragonheart
An evil wizard has placed the Great Dragon, the protector of the realm, into a stony slumber, its fiery breath locked away in a ruby jewel called the Dragonheart. With the land's guardian imprisoned, trolls and fire dragons run amuck, barely held in check by brave knights and canny huntresses. If you can bring order to these factions before your opponent does, you'll control the fate the Great Dragon... and the realm itself!

Hotel Samoa
Samoa. A popular vacation resort, where groups of tourists arrive every week. The hotel owners' only care is to give these tourists the stay of their life - and, of course, to rid them of as much money as possible!

Betrayal at House on the Hill
The creak of footsteps on the stairs, the smell of something foul and dead, the feel of something crawling down your back this and more can be found in the exciting refresh of the Avalon Hill favorite Betrayal at House on the Hill. This fun and suspenseful game is a new experience almost every time you play, as you and your friends explore that creepy old place on the hill until enough mystic misadventures happen that one of the players turns on all of the others! Designed for 3-6 players aged 12 and up, this boardgame features multiple scenarios, a different lay-out with every game, and enough chills to freeze the heart of any horror fan. Betrayal at House on the Hill puts you face-to-face with legendary monsters, modern nightmares... and your friends!

Hansa Teutonica
In Hansa Teutonica, players attempt to increase their standing as merchants in the Hanseatic League by gaining prestige points by establishing networks and trade routes, bartering, and developing markets

LNE Invasion Outer Space - Martian Game
It is the early 1950's, the dawn of the Atomic Age, and mankind is on the brink of setting out to explore the new frontier of space. But what they don't know is that space has already come to them! In a small field near a traveling carnival just outside of a sleepy rural town in middle America, the first Martian Saucers begin to land - the vanguard to a massive alien armada. The Invasion has begun! In this fast-paced, modular game of fiendish Martians, Big Top Heroes, and SciFi Movie Action, players take on the role of either Carnival Heroes, using their special talents and working together to fight off the Martian Invasion; or as the invaders themselves, waves of Martian Soldiers and Flying Saucers, blasting Humans with Ray Guns and unleashing their vile alien technologies upon the Earth. Invasion From Outer Space is fully compatible with Last Night on Earth, and can be combined to form a massive game with up to three independent factions (Heroes, Zombies, and Martians).

Dominion Prosperity Expansion
Ah, money. There's nothing like the sound of coins clinking in your hands. Life has been good to you. Just ten years ago, you were tilling your own fields in a simple straw hat. Today, your kingdom stretches from sea to sea, and your straw hat is the largest the world has ever known. You also have the world's smallest dog, and a life-size statue of yourself made out of baklava. Sure, money can't buy happiness, but it can buy envy, anger, and also this kind of blank feeling. You still have problems - troublesome neighbors that must be conquered. But this time, you'll conquer them in style! The Prosperity expansion adds 25 new Kingdom cards to Dominion, plus two new Basic cards that let players keep building up past Gold and Province, and treasures with abilities, cards that interact with treasures, and powerful expensive cards.

The Farming Game - Card Game
In this portable, card-game adaptation of the International award-winning board game, players harvest crops while dodging droughts, uncertain markets, and insects.
