BOARD & CARD GAMES

Bang! Gold Rush Card Game
A cascade of gold nuggets will be the reward for the quickest gunslinger in Gold Rush, the latest expansion for Bang! Earn shiny gold nuggets and buy new equipment, while the new shadow-gunslingers keep you playing until the last BANG!

Nexus Ops
In Nexus Ops, a board game of fierce sci-fi battles and fantastic alien creatures, players control factions of corporate troops and strange life forms on an alien moon, deploying troops from their home base to explore the landscape, mine resources, purchase troops, win battles, and fulfill missions, all in an attempt to gather enough power to claim the moon for themselves! This new edition of Nexus Ops features detailed plastic figures, fantastic new art, a clarified rulebook, and a host of optional rules and variant play.

ROLE-PLAYING GAMES

MM 3E Gamemaster's Guide
The Mutants & Masterminds 3rd Edition Gamemaster's Guide features everything a Gamemaster needs to set up and run a superhero-themed game - from guidelines on creating challenges and adventures to advice on designing your own setting and series.

L5R RPG Imperial Histories
The Imperial Histories pulls back the curtain on many tumultuous eras of the Emerald Empire, including The Dawn of the Empire, The Gozoku Era, The Clan Wars, and The Race for the Throne, revealing not only the glories of the Rokugani, but also their failings and tribulations.

Black Crusade Hand of Corruption HC
Hand of Corruption is an adventure in three acts for Black Crusade. Presented in one comprehensive volume, this epic story takes a small band of Heretics from the swirling depths of the Screaming Vortex to the far reaches of the Calixis Sector, and then to a parched and windswept Imperial penal world called Saint Annard's Penance.

GM Plot Twist Cards Flashbacks
The past is what you make it with GameMastery Plot Twist Cards: Flashbacks! Each of the deck's 51 cards presents a different event or life lesson that the GM and players, working together, can weave into the game's narrative, as well as related rules effects. With Plot Twist Cards: Flashbacks, everyone can help tell the story and bring their characters' pasts into the present.

PF Adv Path Tide of Honor
The heroes arrive in Minkai only to discover the empire on its knees! The Jade Regent has twisted the ruling government to cater to his despotic whims. Before the heroes can attempt to stand against the Jade Regent and liberate Minkai, they must first earn the trust and respect of the ancient empire's people. A Pathfinder RPG adventure for 12th-level characters, Tide of Honor continues the Jade Regent Adventure Path.

PF Camp Set Jade Regent Pstr Map Folio
This map folio features three, huge, 8-panel poster maps for use with the Jade Regent Adventure Path - Kassai, the capital city of the empire of Minkai; the frozen reaches of the Crown of the World; and the entire continent of Tian Xia from the chill steppes of Hongal to the north to the trackless monster-infested Valashmai Jungle far to the south.

PF Player Companion Dragon Emp Prime
Enter the mystical land of Tian Xia - the Dragon Empires - a new realm for Pathfinder players to explore! Player-friendly descriptions of more than two-dozen nations, details on five new character races, notes on local religions, new Asia-inspired archetypes, feats and martial arts styles, magic items, spells, and a system to track honor and dishonor provide numerous exciting character options.

PF Mod Ruby Pheonix Tournament
Once every ten years, the cosmopolitan city of Goka on the eastern coastline of Tian Xia hosts the Ruby Phoenix Tournament on an island in the city's harbor. Infamous for its strange spectacles and exciting mix of fighting styles, the contest draws combatants from all over the world. Its winner gets his choice of a single item from the legendary treasury of an ancient spellcaster. But this year, not all who have come to compete do so out of respect for the traditions of battle or even out of greed for the reward. They seek, instead, nothing so much as red revenge! The Ruby Phoenix Tournament is a tournament-style Pathfinder Module designed for 11th-level characters.

GM Flip Mat Pirate Ship
Prepare to keelhaul scurvy scallywags with GameMastery Flip-Mat: Pirate Ship! One side presents side-to-side vessels pulled close for ship-to-ship combat, while the other reveals the decks of one ship, making this durable accessory perfect for both high-seas combat or your home on the waves in any tabletop fantasy campaign.

Magic: The Gathering Dark Ascension Launch Party

Rogues Gallery will hold a Launch Party for the next Magic: The Gathering set, Dark Ascension, on Friday, February 3rd!

We recommend pre-registering, as we have a hard limit of 20 people who can fit in our game space on Friday night, and we currently have a dozen people signed up. There may be walk-in room, but we won't know for sure until Friday.

Sign-in for the event will begin at 6:30 PM on February 3rd, and you can pay your money for your cards and get signed in to play in the tournament. We'll begin the event at 7:00 with 30 minutes to construct your decks, and the event will run 3 rounds from 7:30 PM - 10:00 PM (at the latest). Please note that if you are pre-registered, you must arrive by 6:45 to claim your spot or it will be opened up for walk-ins.

We will be playing a Sealed Deck format, each player will pay $25 to receive three Innistrad and three Dark Ascension booster packs to use for building a deck. All participants will receive a limited edition card, and prize support will be in the form of Dark Ascension boosters.

In addition to the main Launch Party event, if space allows, we will offer Standard Constructed Friday Night Magic, but at this time we expect the Launch Party to take up all available room. If that is the case, regular Friday Night Magic will resume on February 10th.
