Stardew Valley and an Empire Alone

Hey PI-Fans, Strange how shipping works in this day and age. You plan out arrival schedules and this absolutely wonky combination of things just drops out of the ether together despite being staggered orders. After being lost in the warp and having basically gone around the world, our shipment of Empire Alone sourcebooks for BattleTech has finally been delivered after delays. Also somehow arriving together is another batch of ConcernedApe's Stardew Valley board game, a cooperative board game set in the same setting of the bestselling indie farming life-sim. The first time we had it in, it basically just entirely disappeared, so we recommend grabbing your copy ASAP. Otherwise, there's plenty of restocks of classic titles like Sushi Go Party that people have been clamoring about. Here's to a great weekend, folks. - Kenneth From the new ilKhan on Terra comes word to the Wolf Empire of their Clan’s victory. [...]

Random Roleplaying Restocks

Hey PI-Fans, Just a minor heads up that a small carton has drifted into the store, containing a smattering of esoterica. The anime themed Tabletop Roleplaying Games for both Konosuba: God's Blessing on this Wonderful World and Goblin Slayer are back on our shelves, though we have no idea how long that will last for. In addition, we've acquired a small supply of Hero Kids, a family friendly Role Playing Game system designed for parents to share the joys of roleplaying with their young ones. The Hero Kids system, of course, is also the preferred system of choice for the upcoming Young Minds, Steel Hearts: Designing and Running an RPG Session for Kids workshop to be conducted by Swords & Stationery at Games @ PI on Sun, 13 November 2022. Together with it's companion lecture Roll Persuasion: How to Be an Effective Communicator With Your Child, S&S hopes to pass [...]

An Unsupervised Manager Makes Warhammer Age of Sigmar Bundles

WARHAMMER AOS SPECIAL ARMY DEALS Hey PI-Fans, So I'm running the store today and I went digging. And to my consternation, here are a bunch of X'Mas Battleforces that weren't collected. It's time for me to be random. The Mortal Realms of Age of Sigmar have seen a lot of upheaval over the years. Then again, given the setting's central theme appears to be "This is Valhalha on mind altering substances" (sometimes literally in the case of the Gloomspite Gitz grots.)  Here's a bunch of army boxes specially priced to get you started designed with the Age of Sigmar Wargame.   Ossiarch Bonereapers Mortisan Tithe Echelon ($230) 20 Mortek Guard Mortek Crawler Gothizzar Harvester 3 Necropolis Stalkers/Immortis Guard Mortisan Boneshaper Mortisan Soulreaper Age of Sigmar Core Rulebook   Lumineth Realm Lords Vanari Shining Host ($230) 10 Auralan Wardens 5 Dawnriders 5 Bladelords Lord Regent Bannerblade Starshard Ballista Age of Sigmar [...]

An Unsupervised Manager Makes Warhammer 40,000 Bundles

WARHAMMER 40,000 SPECIAL ARMY DEALS Hey PI-Fans, One of the entertaining thing that happens at Games @ PI is that the manager walks through the shelves and unilaterally declares: "Bundle Offer". This is one of those times. Hopefully this happens more often! Throughout Warhammer 40,000's long history, pretty much every faction has fought every other army, but there have been a bunch of armies that just do not get along. The Adepta Sororitas and the Necron Dynasties have made war upon each other since the razing of Sanctuary 101 in 897 M41. The blood feud between the Space Wolves and the Thousand Sons has been raging since the Horus Heresy and is the stuff of legends. In recent times, the Death Guard have made bitter enemies of the Adeptus Mechanicus with the attack on Metalica during the Charadon Campaign. On the Xenos front, the War of Dakka between the Space [...]

BattleTech: Marauder – Something Wicked This Way Comes

Hey PI-Fans, The manager oddly excited ever since he managed to secure a tiny quantity of Marauder: A BattleTech Anthology. Lost since the unceremonious end to the BattleCorps subscription service in 2016, the titular Black Marauder finally rides again in what is arguably one of the weirdest books to ever grace BattleTech publication since Far Country.  "Why?", you might ask. "It's a book about a giant robot is it not?" Why yes, hypothetical reader. It is... It is a book about a giant robot. A very special giant robot. Marauder is a series of unsettling novellas told by unreliable narrators set in the BattleTech universe. One could almost describe them as horror. Except, again we don't do that here. You see, dear reader... In another science fiction universe, perhaps we'd see the arrival of silver armored warriors and an individual of inquisitive persuasion hunting a possible immaterial incursion... things like this [...]

Bureau of Investigation – You got Cthulhu in my Sherlock

Hey PI-Fans, It's always entertaining when a series becomes a brand, especially when the series is one as deserving as the Sherlock Holmes: Consulting Detective series. If you've not taken the games out for a spin, you absolutely should. The Baker Street Irregulars, Jack the Ripper & West End Adventures, Carlton House & Queen's Park and The Thames Murders & Other Cases take you into the case files of the inimitable Master Detective.

Building on the investigative mechanics of the Sherlock Holmes series, the Bureau of Investigation continues to provide you with a set of case files, maps, notes, newspaper clippings that players have come to expect from the Sherlock Holmes series, Except you're not in Baker Street anymore. Welcome to the streets of Boston, where your investigative agency is tasked with conducting research [...]

From the Shadows, New things come..

Today is the release of the latest sets for Pokemon TCG and Magic the Gathering. From the dark realms come Giratina and Sheoldred, ready to bring havoc and chaos to the gaming table. The Lost Zone returns to the Pokémon TCG in the Sword & Shield—Lost Origin expansion. Giratina ripped apart the very fabric of space to create a rift into the Lost Zone. Many cards, including Giratina V and Giratina VSTAR, will take advantage of this exciting mechanic. While cards placed in the Lost Zone are out of play for the rest of the games, strategic players can make the most of this new opportunity. The time for Dominaria United is here. A twisted evil lurks within Dominaria: an unexpected sleeper agent. Unite together with powerful planeswalkers and heroes from across the multiverse to expose the ancient threat!  So what are you waiting for? Head down to Games@PI and [...]
