The Apathy of New Releases (November 2011)

It's that time of year that I despise. It's not the holiday seasons that I hate, not even the canned Christmas music pumping through the stores since August. Just like last year, the solicitations for the Christmas season and the going into the dead time of a retailer's year are less than stellar.


Wish List: Nothing


The If-Money-Were-No-Object List:


TERROR NETWORK: AVERAGE JOES: When Terrorists interrupt a day of shopping
at Bellpoint Mall, a group of regular citizens rise to the occasion - and kick butt! This Terror Network scenario/supplement thrusts ordinary citizens into extraordinary situations!
S2P BED2006 ..........................$14.99

A counter-terrorism RPG? eh. A counter-terrorism RPG using civilians as heroes? Something I wanted 20 years ago.

Store List:


A huge pile of miscellaneous Flames of War, Dust Tactics,and Heavy Gear. This could be a solid area of profit for some stores, but the outlay for a decent stock of questionable product is not the way to go right before the worst time of time of year.


Villans and Vigilantes:ANCIENT EVIL


A FEW ACRES OF SNOW : Thousands of miles from their homes, settlers and soldiers were faced with impenetrable forests, unpredictable American tribes, and formidable distances.
Despite these obstacles they were able to engage in bitter warfare, with the British ultimately taking the prize - Quebec. A Few Acres of Snow is a two-player deck-building game that
recreates this contest fought during the 17th and 18th centuries. MFG .$55.00


A great concept for a game from Mayfair. A horrible price for a 2-player game.



4 Pathfinder products


LUCHADOR: WAY OF THE MASK - BRIGHT LIGHTS AND BARBED WIRE : Luchador goes wrestling goes ECW?


THE LORD OF THE RINGS HEROCLIX
