China: The Middle Kingdom covers the full scope of Chinese history, from its beginnings as a collection of warring feudal states, to the current cold war between China and Taiwan. In this epic game based on the classic Avalon Hill Britannia system, four players each control several factions simultaneously, with each faction having their own objectives and situations, such as conquering certain provinces. The winner is the player who scores the most points by the end of the game. This breathtaking game unfolds on an illustrated map of China with 456 counters, covering 50 separate countries and peoples, including all of the major dynasties of Chinese history, the arrival of the European powers, both World Wars and the Japanese invasion, right up to the end of the civil war between the Communists and the Nationalists. The game occurs over 24 turns, starting from 403 BC, during the "Warring States" period as China begins to rise from its feudal age. The game has two shorter campaign scenarios covering the first half and second half of the full campaign game.

Battles between armies can be dramatically affected by the presence of mountains, emperors, heroes, new inventions, and even the Great Wall. Rebellions, barbarian invasions, and uprisings may spring up from anywhere, and signal the end of one dynasty and the birth of a new dynasty. Diplomacy is as important as military strength. Each player continually must defend against multiple enemies on multiple fronts.

On October 25, 3068, the Word of Blake flooded the Inner Sphere HPG networks with “White Noise”, a stream of gibberish and propaganda that made communications virtually impossible. Amid the noise, stunning secrets were revealed: Anastasius Focht was once Frederick Steiner; ComStar Primus Sharilar Mori was a Kurita spy.

Yet along with the secrets revealed and the spreading fires of the Jihad, the Blakists unveiled terrible new weapons and an army the size of which the intelligence agencies of the Inner Sphere had scarcely dreamed, spawning a darker, new wave of mysteries, and whispers of shadowy cabals. Hidden worlds, cults of assassins, ancient societies and even the mysteries of hyperspace—all emerged as possible sources for the Word of Blake's newfound power. Once more spanning all of human space from ancient Terra to the far-flung Clan homeworlds, the conspiracies behind the Jihad could be the key to unraveling the greatest war since the days of Amaris.

Jihad Conspiracies: Interstellar Players 2 describes several of the most powerful and influential people, organizations, and entities at work behind the scenes of the Word of Blake Jihad. Some of these conspiracies are firmly grounded in Classic BattleTech lore, but shown here in ways never before seen; others have only recently emerged from their own shadows. Gamemasters and players can decide which of these power brokers are real and which are paranoid fantasies spawned by the chaos and fear of the Blakist Holy War!

Garibaldi: La Trafila is a boardgame that makes you live the events accured in the august 1849, near Ravenna (Romagna, Italy), when Garibaldi, hunted by the Austrians for fifteen days, succeded to hide in valleys and in pine forests to reach salvation. A player is Garibaldi in hiding, the others are the Austrian patrols hunting him. Garibaldi wins if he succeeds in reaching the safe point and can run away, otherwise the Austrian patrols win if they catch Garibaldi.

In turns, using the cards, it's possible to move on the gameboard, a big-sized board that reproduces accurately a map of the territory at that time. The player who controls Garibaldi, with the help of a special screen, makes his moves secretly, while the other players have to work together to stop the moves of the escaper, trying to find him.

Garibaldi: La Trafila is a game of deduction and bluff, recommended for all families: the rules are simple, but the gameplay stimulates reasoning and cooperation, offering the possibility for expert players to adopt more refined strategies.

A perfect locale for adventure, Darkmoon Vale and its secrets are laid bare for players and game masters alike!

This is an update of the popular game that originally appeared in S&T over a third of a century ago, and was then expanded and released in boxed format early in the 1980s. This is a two-map game, in which the action begins on D-Day, 6 June 1944, and continues through the Allied breakout and subsequent drive to the Seine River. Two one-map scenarios are also included: one covering the landings and fight to secure the beaches from 6 June to 15 July, and a second covering Patton's famed breakout operation. Units of maneuver are mostly regiments and brigades with some battalions and divisions. Randy Heller has provided a variant to add more of the historical order of battle with new counters for flak units and other small German units that were important to the stubborn defense. Joe Youst has spearheaded the development and playtesting of the updated rules.

This Extension kit is just that ­ a kit to extend WITP into late 1945 and 1946 making it possible to explore the possibilities of the war continuing without atomic intervention. The kit includes a new counter sheet for planes, ships, and other units scheduled to appear after August 1945. It also includes an additional set of the aircraft counter sheets for a total of five counter sheets, plus two more tactical island maps. The rules and charts booklet covers the additional rules needed to continue the war.

While the Wings of War: Immelmann boster pack focuses on airplanes of the earliest portion of World War I, the Dogfight booster features some of the biggest fan-favorites from the later portion of the war.

The introduction of the S.E.5a in Wings of War has been asked for a long time by players all over the world, and the Canadian Billy Bishop — airplane card #1 of the set — is one of the most requested pilot since the game appeared on the market. He is not the only famous pilot in the new booster. The Australian Dallas, the South African balloon buster Beauchamp-Proctor, the English McCudden and Mannock are good company on his side of the front.

Named after the incredible WWI pilot Max Immelmann, The Wings of War: Immelmann booster set includes three new Maneuver Decks, G, P and P, and new planes such as the Fokker A.III/E.III which was flown by Immelman himself. The set also contains the Halberstadt D.III, Fokker E.IV, Morane-Saulnier N, as well as many other surprises. The Immelman booster pack is compatible with any WWI Wings of War game set.
