Hey PI-Fans,

It’s the start of a new week and we’ve got a lot on our plate. Just to get you up to speed, we’ve got a bunch of new announcements. For conveniences sake, we’re going to recap them here briefly before we crow about the new stuff.

For full information, follow the links.

With Games Workshop raising prices for their ‘Start Collecting’ series, we’re offering a special promotional bundle until 04/02/19.

We’re preparing a new order with Feldherr and we’ll be taking special orders until 08/02/19. If you’re in need of a  new case or custom storage solution, do let us know by then.

Ok.

With that out of the way, we’ve  had new stuff roll in over the weekend, and we’re feeling shouty.

A fourth faction has joined the battle for Westeros as the Free Folk swarm the wall.  March to war with the ‘wildlings’ and take the fight to the Night Watch with the Free Folk Starter Box for the A Song of Ice and Fire: Miniatures Game which contains everything a player needs to start a Free Folk army.

On the board game front, there’s Sonar, a four player version of the popular Captain Sonar and Untold: Adventures Await, a customizable storytelling game powered by Rory’s Story Cubes where players become the heroes of a thrilling tale that unfolds in under 60 minutes.

Role players can keep their eye out for Modern AGE, an role playing system designed for roleplaying in a post-industrial setting. Based on the successful Adventure Game Engine used in Green Ronin’s Dragon Age RPG, the Modern AGE Basic Rulebook is all you’ll need to get step beyond the traditional fantasy RPG setting.

Hey PI-Fans,

With the issue of storage being a question of some import, many of you who deal with miniatures have asked us when the next Feldherr order is going out.

So you know what, we’re prepping another order to Feldherr in February.

Games @ PI is taking pre-orders for Feldherr Cases at a Singapore dollar price of 1.7x the Euro listed price on the Feldherr Website (https://www.feldherr.net/). This price is inclusive of the shipping cost.

Please note that for tracking purposes, you will need to be a Games @ PI Member to place an order. Please make a full deposit upfront for orders. Final date for orders is 08/02/19.

With a range of Hard Cases, Backpacks and Sponge Trays, Feldherr provides miniature carry cases you can take your miniatures anywhere in safety. These cases were designed for use with war, sci-fi and fantasy game mini figures & miniatures, but can also be used for other types of hobbies.

Hey PI-Fans,

With the price of Games Workshop Start Collecting sets increasing in the near future, Games@PI will be running a limited time promotion!

Should the Start Collecting Box Set of your choice be out-of-stock at the time, place an order with us and Games@PI will honour the promotional price if a deposit for the items is paid before the 4th of Feb.

Hey PI-Fans,

Horror themed game players, like most fans of games involving the Cthulhu mythos, are an odd lot.

I would know. I’m one of them.

Perhaps it’s time to hop on the bus for another trip to the little seaside village of Dunwich. What could go wrong? Alternatively, why not take the opportunity to chase Dracula across Europe.

Interested?

Kick your Arkham Horror Card Game into hard mode with the Return to Dunwich Legacy expansion, a fresh look at the Dunwich Legacy campaign with additional material designed to give even the most jaded of investigators a run for their money.

Then there’s an all new edition of Fury of Dracula, sending investigators scrambling across Europe in a deadly chase of the undead Count.  Will the hunters successfully track down and end the vampiric menace? Or will Dracula turn the tables on his pursuers and give them the slip? Find out in this all new edition of the classic hidden movement strategy game.

And if you want something more sedate and less threatening to life and limb… Well… on a personal scale at least, it’s time to take 7 Wonders to sea. 7 Wonders: Armada expands the game-play of 7 Wonders with an additional naval board that allows players to chart the expansion of their civilizations at sea.

Interested?

Pop on down and get some gaming in with us.

Hey PI-Fans,

I’m going to go have a lie down. Singlehandedly carting Gloomhaven up and down the stairs hasn’t been particularly good for me.

On the other hand. Hey folks! Look! GLOOMHAVEN!

If anything, it’s as good a title to kick off a week with, but we’re not done.

Gloomhaven is a game of Euro-inspired tactical combat in a persistent world of shifting motives. Players will take on the role of a wandering adventurer with their own special set of skills and their own reasons for traveling to this dark corner of the world. Players must work together out of necessity to clear out menacing dungeons and forgotten ruins. In the process, they will enhance their abilities with experience and loot, discover new locations to explore and plunder, and expand an ever-branching story fueled by the decisions they make.

Take the job of a real detective in a modern setting! In Detective: A Modern Crime Board Game, 1-5 players take on the role of investigators, solving mysterious crimes while working as an Antares National Investigation Agency team members. This board game tell rich stories – stories you will participate in. Let’s hope that you will be able to deduce the end, before there is another crime… The game will challenge you with five different cases, that have to be played in order. Seemingly unconnected at first, they will unveil an immersive meta-plot based on facts and fiction alike.

How can we Spirits drive the invaders back to their boats and off our island? We must grow, change, and find new paths – if we stay as we are, we shall die, and the Island with us. The Branch & Claw Expansion for Spirit Island, featuring two new Spirits (Sharp Fangs Behind the Leaves and Keeper of the Forbidden Wilds) and a new Adversary (France) as well as adding Events to the Invader Phase of the game!

Hey PI-Fans,

A new year brings reprints, and with publishers reopening after their end of year breaks, this means many titles are back in stock. People hunting board games can get excited over the return of Mysterium, Twilight Struggle, This War of Mine, Scythe, Tiny Epic Zombies, Spirit Island, Arkham Horror and Unicornus Knights.

RPG fans will be happy to know that titles like Fiasco, Ryuutama, Vampire: The Masquerade and Tales from the Loop are back in dead-tree format as well.

On the other hand, with the title of this announcement, it’s probably worth mentioning that Mansions of Madness: Horrific Journeys and Arkham Horror: Guardians of the Abyss have wandered in along with Pandemic: Fall of Rome and the Kingdom RPG.

Something stirs beneath the sands of Egypt… Jessie Burke, a government agent working in Egypt, has asked you to help her solve this medical quandary—people across the city are falling into a wakeless slumber, including Jessie’s husband and partner, John. As of yet, there are no known factors that connect the victims, but Jessie hopes that your experience with other… peculiar cases will lead to a crack in the case. Guardians of the Abyss, a standalone scenario for the Arkham Horror Living Card Game that features both the Gen Con 2018 and Arkham Nights 2018 scenarios is now available.

The Horrific Journeys expansion for Mansions of Madness take four new investigators far from Arkham, solving mysteries aboard a bustling transatlantic airship, a luxury ocean liner, and a scenic countryside train. With new map tiles, puzzles, monsters, and mythos events, these brave men and women must contend with hideous amphibian monstrosities and interdimensional creatures tearing holes in the fabric of reality all with the knowledge that one wrong move can destroy the very vessels they are trying to protect! In order to arrive at their destinations, the investigators of Arkham must first survive their journey!

At the height of its power, the Roman Empire held more than two million square miles of territory containing over a hundred million people.  By the beginning of the 5th Century, decades of political corruption, economic crisis, and an overburdened military had exacted a severe toll on the stability of the Empire. Combining the cooperative gameplay of Pandemic with innovative new mechanisms, Pandemic: Fall of Rome takes players back in history to the time of the world’s greatest empire: Rome. As you march through the Roman Empire, you must recruit armies, fortify cities, forge alliances, and face off against the invading hordes in battle.

Kingdoms are all around us. They are the communities that unite us. Kingdom is a two-to-five player GM-less RPG system based around a ‘Kingdom’.

Your Kingdom can be any group or organization that interests you. You could play a Wild West frontier town, a colony ship crawling to a distant star, or a sprawling Empire holding conquered peoples beneath its thumb.

As you play, you’ll confront your Kingdom and your characters with Crossroads, critical decisions that may change your community forever. What will your Kingdom do? What will it become? Strive to make your Kingdom live up to your ideals… or watch as it burns.

Hey PI-Fans,

If you’ve been been following us, then you’ll know that we’re looking for capable, responsible  and self-motivated individuals to join the Games @ PI crew.*

We’re looking for retail staffers interested in joining us in both part-time and full-time capacity.

Interested? Check out the attached staff roles and responsibilities and submit your resume to info@pi.com.sg .

* Preferably able to spot the mistake in the above paragraph.

Hey PI-Fans,

2018 just blew on by us.  Between the end of the year and the Dungeons & Dragons Charity Epic, we’ve been… busy.

If you’ve been keeping up to date with us, you’ll already know we’re looking for new staff to join the team.

On the other hand we’re not about to let something like the Christmas Rush slow us down.

We’ve seen a rush of new titles over the Christmas season, including Fireball Island, Discover, GEN 7 and Sentinels of the Multiverse Oblivaeon, but a new year wouldn’t be a new year without new stuff.

So HAVE AT IT!

Our world has widened before us. Corporations expand their operations to all corners of the solar system in pursuit of minerals and resources. Terraforming Mars: Colonies, an expansion for Terraforming Mars that can be played with only the base game or with any combination of expansions, lets you visit the outer solar system. It features colony tiles where you can build colonies and send your trade fleet. It also includes new cards and corporations.

Cross the Narrow Sea with the Mother of Dragons expansion for A Game of Thrones: The Board Game! Clawing their way into power, this expansion includes a side board of the Free Cities of Essos and an overlay of the Eyrie, as well as new characters and mechanics to bring House Targaryen and House Arryn into the fray. As you make your claim to the Iron Throne, you can call other Houses to your cause with the new vassal mechanic, or even ask for aid from the Iron Bank of Braavos. But be cautious, for the Iron Bank will have its due, and if your campaign proves to be a poor investment, the money lenders’ retribution will be swift.

Before the Age of Sigmar, there was the World-that-Was, and it’s time to go back. It’s time to wear your jaunty feathered hat, strap on your pauldrons, unleash your small but unreasonably vicious dog and take to the streets of Old World in the Fourth Edition of Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay. Returns to the original grim world of perilous adventure, get the gang together, create your (anti)heroes, and set off to make your way through the vile corruption, scheming plotters and terrifying creatures intent on destruction. And after that, THEN take on the forces of Chaos.

And because. I can… remember BattleTech?

Hey PI-Fans,

On New Year’s Eve, 31st December 2018, in conjunction with Dungeons & Dragons Adventurer’s League Singapore as part of a charity fundraising even collecting donations  for the Make-a-Wish Foundation Singapore.
