Magic: the Gathering - Theros
From PAX East MOCS coverage today - next large set names and this lovely art. Certainly looks and feels like Greco-Roman mythology themed set to me.
Transistor: New game from the creators of Bastion.
Wow, what incredible timing. Just yesterday I was wondering if they were working on a new game. If it’s half as good as Bastion it will still be a must play.
edit: if you haven’t played Bastion yet, get it here for $1
Word on the street is that Fantasy Flight’s next LCG will be World of Darkness, using a Vampire: The Eternal Struggle-like rule set. Right now I can see this happening. Android: Netrunner has been doing well for FF, so reviving another Richard Garfield game seems like a solid decision. For White Wolf this could help generate interest in the setting for their new game lines, as well as the MMO. Crossing my fingers on this one, V:TES is a great multiplayer focused game.
Playing Descent 2nd edition.
Sentinels of the Multiverse is a cooperative card game where you play as a team of super heroes battling a nefarious villain. Players choose a hero, each with a deck filled with superpowers, equipment, and special events unique to that character.
The ever-growing collection
Reverse side of prototype cards for a game I’m working on with my girlfriend.
Monsterpocalypse! My most recent purchase, it was on sale for about half off at my FLGS. Unfortunately it was missing a piece, one of the monster pieces even. Those are totally the main draw of the game! Very disappointing, but if I can get a replacement from Privateer all will be forgiven (this picture was taken for my replacement piece request).
