Big news of the moment is the pending release of two new games from two of my favouritest game designers, Malc and Gregor!
\n
\nMalc’s Hot War<\/em> has just hit pre-order at Indie Press Revolution. It follows up his Cold City<\/em> game and twists it in new, powerful directions. It is also an incredibly beautiful book, thanks to Paul Bourne’s typically amazing designs.<\/p>\n

\nLondon. Winter. 1963.
\nIt is a year since the Cold War went hot.
\nAnd this was not just a nuclear war. Far more sinister, darker weapons were deployed from the shadows.
\nSurvival and re-building are all that matter now. But human nature and tragic circumstances mean that everyone has their own ambitions.
\n…a Government desperate to hold on to what remains of the country.
\n…military forces who wish to expand their power and influence.
\n…frightened and brutalised refugees who simply want a place to call home.
\nInto this maelstrom steps the Special Situations Group, a motley band of men and women tasked with the jobs too dirty or dangerous for anyone else.
\nThis is Hot War: a game of friends, enemies, secrets and consequences in the aftermath.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\n
\nGregor’s 3:16: Carnage Amongst The Stars<\/a> develops and extends his Ronnie-winning original version, and also boasts tremendous visual style.<\/p>\n

This high-octane Sci-Fi role-playing game for 2 or more players has your space Troopers killing bugs all across the Cosmos. You’ll advance in rank, improve your weapons, slay civilization after civilization and find out who you are through an innovative “Flashback” mechanic.
