7 Wonders Duel: Pantheon
A pantheon from several civilizations - including Greek, Egyptian, and Middle-Eastern - gets added to
7 Wonders Duel in
7 Wonders Duel: Pantheon, with each god having its own power to help you or hinder your opponent.
During Age I you collect mythology tokens - which allow you to choose which deities have a place in the Pantheon - and offering tokens, which help you court those deities. Then, during Ages II and III, you can activate a god or goddess in the Pantheon instead of taking a card from the pyramid. To do so, you pay whatever that god or goddess demands from you in offerings, then place it next to your city.
With Isis on your side, you can use a card from the discard pile to construct one of your Wonders for free. Zeus, whose nod determines what happens and what does not, enables you to discard any single card from the pyramid that you want as well as any mythology or offering tokens on it. The Phoenician goddess Tanit, whose people were renowned for trade, fills your coffers with twelve pieces of gold. Enki, the Sumerian god of crafts, technology, and creation, lets you choose one of two progress tokens. Minerva's ability to keep the conflict pawn from entering your territory may not instantly bring you victory, but it can save you from military defeat.
What's more, instead of adding three guild cards to the deck for Age III, you add three of five Grand Temples. Each Grand Temple belongs to a different Mediterranean culture, and if you have the favor of a god or goddess from that culture, you can build the temple for free. For example, having Isis by your side enables you to build the Egyptian temple; with Enki, you can build the Mesopotamian one. These temples are worth 5, 12, or 21 points depending on how many you build.
7 Wonders Duel: Pantheon also includes two new Wonders: the
Sanctuary (which for the cost of 2 coins lets you reverse turn order) and the
Divine Theater (which grants points and easier access to the gods).

Jim Henson's Labyrinth: The Board Game
(1-5 players)
"Give me the child. Through dangers untold and hardships unnumbered, I have fought my way here to the castle beyond the Goblin City to take back the child that you have stolen, for my will is as strong as yours, and my kingdom as great."
Jim Henson's Labyrinth: The Board Game is a beautiful exploration of the movie for 1-5 players in which Sarah, Ludo, Sir Didymus and Hoggle must adventure through the labyrinth and make their way to the goblin city to save Toby from Jareth, the goblin king!
The board is very simplistic, beautifully illustrated and dominated by the titular Labyrinth. This is the maze that players must navigate every time they wish to save Sarah's baby brother. Each game is different with the blank card spaces being filled with the magical encounters and monsters that are depicted on the deck of cards that comes with the game, this ensures a great deal of replayability and unpredictability in the game, giving the Labyrinth its signature feel.
The game consists of two distinct stages, one in which the group must adventure through the labyrinth trying to find the goblin city whilst keeping their willpower as high as possible (nobody wants to fall into the oubliette!), and a second stage in which the players must fight their way into Jareth's castle where Sarah must say the magical words that will release her brother.

Dungeons & Dragons: Volo's Guide to Monsters (We have both the colored Cover, shown on right, and the alternate cover edition, which features Cthulhu, shown on left.)
Colored cover editions will be 25% off until Saturday, Nov. 19th.
Explore the breadth of D&D's monsters in this immersive 224-page volume filled with beautiful illustrations and in-depth lore.
Volo's Guide to Monsters provides something exciting for players and Dungeon Masters everywhere!
The esteemed loremaster Volothamp Geddarm is back and he's written a fantastical dissertation, covering some of the most iconic monsters in the Forgotten Realms. Unfortunately, the Sage of Shadowdale himself, Elminster, doesn't believe Volo gets some of the important details quite right. Don't miss out as Volo and Elminster square off (academically speaking of course) to illuminate the uninitiated on creatures both common and obscure. Uncover the machinations of the mysterious Kraken Society, what is the origin of the bizarre froghemoth, or how to avoid participating in the ghastly reproductive cycle of the grotesque vargouille.
Dungeon Masters and players will get some much-needed guidance as you plan your next venture, traipsing about some dusty old ruin in search of treasure, lore, and let's not forget ... dangerous creatures whose horns, claws, fangs, heads, or even hides might comfortably adorn the walls of your trophy room. If you survive.
-
Chapter 1: Monster Lore takes several iconic D&D monsters and provides additional information about their origins, their dispositions and behaviors, and their lairs-above and beyond what is written in the
Monster Manual. Dive deep into the story behind D&D's most popular and iconic monsters, including beholders, mind flayers, and the yuan-ti, as well as classics like orcs, gnolls, and kobolds.
-
Chapter 2: Character Races presents character races that are some of the more distinctive race options in the D&D multiverse, including the goblin, the orc, and the firbolg.

(2-4 players/30-60 mins.)
The forces of evil are threatening to overrun Hogwarts castle in
Harry Potter: Hogwarts Battle, a cooperative deck-building game, and it's up to four students to ensure the safety of the school by defeating villains and consolidating their defenses. In the game, players take on the role of a Hogwarts student: Harry, Ron, Hermione or Neville, each with their own personal deck of cards that's used to acquire resources.
By gaining influence, players add more cards to their deck in the form of iconic characters, spells, and magical items. Other cards allow them to regain health or fight against villains, keeping them from gaining power. The villains set back players with their attacks and Dark Arts. Only by working together will players be able to defeat all of the villains, securing the castle from the forces of evil.

Harley Quinn Bishoujo New 52 Version - $74.99
A KOTOBUKIYA Japanese import! Kotobukiya proudly presents the next entry in the lineup of Bishoujo statues based on the super heroines and villains of DC Comics with the ultimate fan-favorite character in a colorful look: HARLEY QUINN NEW 52 VER.! First appearing in Batman: the Animated Series and then the pages of DC Comics, Harleen Quinzel was originally a brilliant doctor working with patients at Arkham Asylum before she was seduced by the "clown prince of crime" and became the Joker's girlfriend and assistant. Her villainous ways have brought her into conflict with Batman many times over the years, and her craziness has led her to fight criminals and heroes alike. Harley Quinn makes her triumphant return to the Bishoujo series with traditional Japanese "pretty girl" styling complementing her unique appearance in the New 52 based on a new character interpretation by Shunya Yamashita! Harley Quinn stands in a fun, relaxed pose as she leans forward with one hand on her hip and her comically oversized hammer resting over her shoulder. This all-new sculpt features the unique New 52 outfit for the crazy character with her signature harlequin style and blue and red contrasting colors featuring a lace-up top, short shorts, thigh-high stockings, and short cape in addition to twin pigtails. The amazing details on this figure include her exaggerated makeup, bright red lipstick, and color-coordinated painted nails. In addition to her hammer, Harley has twin holstered pistols attached to her gun belt along with spare ammunition clips circling her waist. Sculpted by M.I.C., Harley Quinn New 52 Ver. stands nearly 9 inches tall (1/7 scale) on her specially designed display base. Display her alone or alongside other DC character Bishoujo statues from Kotobukiya like Batgirl, the Huntress, and Poison Ivy!

Fury of Dracula Third Edition - $59.99
The most notorious vampire of all rises again in this third edition of Fury of Dracula, a board game of deduction and gothic horror based on Bram Stoker's classic novel. One player takes control of the legendary Count Dracula as he stealthily crosses Victorian-era Europe, spreading his diabolical vampirism everywhere he goes. Up to four other players govern Mina Harker and her determined companions as they try to locate and destroy the fiendish Count before he plunges Europe into horrific darkness. But in this heated game of cat and mouse, the hunted prey may also be preying on his hunters. Any day's travel might bring the hunters to Dracula's location. On any night the Count may attack. This edition features all-new art and graphic design crafted to complement the game's intuitive, thematic mechanics. Rounds are now broken into day and night: hunters take actions during both, but Dracula can only act at night. Combat is now more streamlined and decisive, and new rumor tokens allow Dracula to mislead hunters and extend the terrible reach of his influence. Count Dracula triumphs if he advances his influence track to thirteen; if the hunters can defeat him before then, they save the continent of Europe and win the game.
