Another Month of Games (Apr '21)

It's a bright day for Gaming with the Gnomies.  After months of barely anything catching my eye in Alliance Game Distributor's monthly Game Trade Magazine, there are a number of items in this month's issue that call out to me.... to buy a lottery ticket and hit it big.  

Issue #254 of Game Trade Magazine can be found at your FLGS or online here

ViscountEric's Want List
Nothing

ViscountEric's Money-Is-No-Object Want Last
23rd Century Games
Battlelords: Charlie Foxtrot .........................................................$40.00
There's a special place in my heart for Battlelords of the 23rd Century, ever since my introduction to the game by Larry Sims himself at Lehicon IV.

Chaosium
Call of Cthulhu: Horror on the Orient Express .......................... $89.99
A reformatted version of the behemoth of a project that nearly tanked Chaosium.  Still huge at over 700 pages.

Gale Force Nine
Aliens: Alien Queen ................................. $15.00
Aliens: Alien Warriors .............................. $25.00
Aliens: Heroes of Hadley's Hope .............. $25.00
Aliens: Sulaco Survivors ........................... $15.00
I have a nostalgia for homebrewed Aliens games using Legions of Steel tiles and the Leading Edge miniatures boxed set.  Those are long gone, but these prices are comparable to and sculpts superior t figures from 25 years ago.  

Palladium Games
After the Bomb RPG HC ............................ $36.99
I'll post the deluge of Palladium books going hardcover in the Imaginary Store section, but this one speaks out to me.  A little TMNT or Radioactive Blackbelt Hamster action with the clunky Palladium system is something that pulls at my heartstrings and wallet, which is what I expect Palladium planned all along.

The Imaginary Store List (The Pegleg Gnome)
Arc Dream Publishing
Delta Green: Black Sites ......................................................... $44.99
Delta Green:  Static Protocol ................................................... $19.99
Delta Green: Impossible Landscapes ...................................... $64.99

Combination rulebook and journal for Pathfinder characters classes.  Cleric, Druid, Fighter, Rogue, and Wizard.

Bellweather Games
Lions of Lydia ............................................................................ $39.99

Black Armada
Last Fleet RPG ........................................................................... $35.00
Last Fleet RPG Deluxe Edition .................................................. $50.00
Last Fleet is a tabletop roleplaying game where you play courageous pilots, officers, engineers, politicians and journalists struggling to hold the human race and themselves together under unbelievable pressure.

Cephalofair Games
Gloomhaven: Jaws of the Lion Removable Sticker Set and Map .......... $8.50
Gloomhaven: The Black Barrow Puzzle (1000 piece) ........................... $19.99

Chaosium
Runequest:  The Red Book of Magic ......................................... $34.95

Cubicle 7
Warhammer - Age of Sigmar - Soulbound RPG: Champions of Order .............. $39.99
Warhammer 40K - Wrath and Glory RPG: Foresaken System Player's Guide ...... $39.99

Global Games

Goodman Games
DCC: Chaotic Wizard Glow Dice ........................................... $34.99
DCC: Lawful Wizard Glow Dice ............................................. $34.99
DCC:  Neutral Wizard Glow Dice ........................................... $34.99]
DCC: Demon Skull Re-Issue Kickstarter Edition ................... $69.99
DCC: Original Adventures Reincarnated #6 - The Temple of Elemental Evil ........ $99.99
I know I have a category called "ViscountEric's Money-Is-No-Object Want List" and I know the original T1-4 took up our entire summer back in high school, and it is a two hardcover slipcase, but a hundred bucks for something that's pretty low on my to-play-again list is pretty steep.  Plus, if I did run it, I would destroy those books just from general use.

Kobold Press
Deep Magic (Pocket Edition) 5E ............................................ $24.99
Kobold Guide to Monsters ...................................................... $19.99

Legendary Games
The Dragon's Hoard (5E) #1 .................................................... $12.99

Power Armor (5e) ....................................................................  $13.99
Treasury of the Crusade (Pathfinder2) ...................................... $10.99
Treasury of Winter (Pathfinder2) ...............................................$11.99
When it's a third-party publisher, releasing books for Pathfinder, Starfinder, and 5e, I love the prices, but I predict shelf confusion and lost sales at brick and mortars, due to the sheer volume of books

Luxury Faux Leather Dice Box/Rolling Dice .................. $23.99
I promised myself that I wouldn't go on another dice rant this month, so I'll avoid mentioning most of the solicitations.    I don't have the same compunctions with dice accessories,
