The Weekly LIVE 234 – Edgerunners Game, Enemy Within Bundle, D&D LEGOs, Coriolis: The Great Dark and Jim Ward Passes

Posted on March 24, 2024 by upturnedtable_sx8obi

Cyberpunk Edgerunners: Combat Zone Miniatures Game is inspired by the animated series “Cyberpunk: Edgerunners,” this miniatures game by Monster Fight Club, R. Talsorian Games, and CD Projekt Red offers fast-paced skirmishes in Night City. The game utilizes Monster Fight Club’s [RE]action game engine for responsive gameplay, allowing characters to act dynamically without rigid turn structures.

Players can choose between embodying the Edgerunners or the Arasaka Corporation’s cyber-enhanced suits, each with distinct abilities. The starter box includes figures, cards, a game board, terrain, and various components for gameplay customization. The game’s release date is yet to be announced.

Humble Bundle launches the Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay: The Enemy Within Humble Bundle. Cubicle 7’s remastered five-part campaign “The Enemy Within” is offered in a Humble Bundle, along with other Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay materials. A portion of the proceeds from the bundle supports Children’s Health Ireland. The bundle includes various books and adventures, offering an extensive library for Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay enthusiasts. The complete bundle is valued at $288, with a minimum US$1 to get the Starter Set.

LEGO reveals its first Dungeons & Dragons set, the “D&D Red Dragon’s Tale,” developed in collaboration with Wizards of the Coast. The set features a tavern, dungeon, tower, and a buildable red dragon named Cinderhowl, along with six LEGO minifigures and other brick-built monsters. Wizards of the Coast provides a bespoke adventure for the set, available for LEGO Insiders as a free digital download. The set will be priced at $359.99 and released on April 4, 2024, with pre-orders expected to open soon.

The 2nd Edition of Free League’s Sci-Fi RPG Coriolis, titled The Great Dark, was launched on Kickstarter and achieved rapid success, reaching its funding goal within seven minutes. The game promises a fresh take on space exploration, featuring enigmatic ruins, ancient gods, and dangers lurking in the depths of outer space. Players take on the role of explorers venturing into the Great Dark, facing challenges like the cataclysmic Blight while seeking artifacts and knowledge to save their home, Ship City. The game draws inspiration from 19th-century polar expeditions, deep-sea diving, and pulp archaeology, emphasizing mystery, wonder, and stunning visuals. The rule system is based on the acclaimed Year Zero Engine, offering mechanics for character generation, combat, exploration, and expeditions. The Kickstarter campaign also offers a boxed campaign setting, The Flowers of Algorab, and various exclusive backer rewards.

The passing of RPG legend James M. Ward, known for his contributions to Dungeons & Dragons, Metamorphosis Alpha, and other seminal games, was announced, marking a significant loss for the RPG community.

The Weekly LIVE 165 – Star Wars: Shatterpoint Skirmish Game, Regency Cthulhu Expansion by Chaosium, Heroscape Return in Doubt and Edgerunners in Cyberpunk RED

Posted on November 13, 2022November 13, 2022 by upturnedtable_sx8obi

Star Wars Skirmish is a new Star Wars miniatures skirmish game coming next year. Atomic Mass Games, the Asmodee Studio that currently produces the Star Wars: Legion and Star Wars: X-Wing Miniatures tabletop games, have announced this new skirmish game featuring iconic characters from the Star Wars universe. The game will be released in June 2023 and will be released alongside existing Star Wars products. Players will build a strike team of characters, such as Ahsoka Tano and Bo-Katan Kryze or Lord Maul, and have them compete in battles with evolving mission objectives.

Regency Cthulhu by Chaosium is a new sourcebook for the popular Call of Cthulhu RPG. And it does exactly what it says on the tin. The world of Regency England—and specifically here, Jane Austen’s England, which was society through a bitingly satirical lens—is about to be full of monsters from the mythos.Call it Shoggoths and Sensibility. Or Persuasion (by elder powers to hasten the destruction of all you know and hold dear). But maybe buckle a brace of pistols over your waistcoat, because Regency England is beset by horrors.

Heroscape’s return is in doubt. Its Hasbro Pulse campaign captured a burst of backers thanks to the dedicated community that has sustained itself over Heroscape’s nearly twelve-year hiatus, but the momentum died almost immediately. Only 3,400 backers have pledged Age of Annihilation’s $250 box.The project needs to surpass 8,000 purchases, or $2 million in promised funding, by November 15th to convince Hasbro it deserves to exist. Their current focus on their big cash cows of Magic: the Gathering and Dungeons and Dragons means Heroscape will not be coming back any time soon.

A new starter set allows you to play Edgerunners from the popular Netflix series in Cyberpunk RED. The Cyberpunk Edgerunners Mission Kit runs on the Cyberpunk RED rpg ruleset. Cyberpunk RED is the latest iteration of the original Cyberpunk RPG, going all the way back to the days of 1988. Now, the new starter box has an updated look for even the days of the RED. This feels like the “bridge” between the Night City of 2045 (the time of the Red) and the “now” of Night City in 2077. The set will include lore and rules to bring the setting and game up to the timeline from the anime by Trigger Studios and the console/PC game by CD Project Red.
