Title: SG: New Board Games at Spirit Games Post by: RSSFeeder on 05 December 2012, 01:00:10 Spirit Games Website Whats New for Games
Overview : Spirit Games, supplying gamers with board games, card games, roleplaying games, d20, wargames and miniatures, for 20 years. Website : http://www.spiritgames.co.uk/disp.php?menu=2&sub=n Courtier Direct link : http://www.spiritgames.co.uk/single.php?menu=2&sub=n&game=7240 The royal court of the City-State of Tempest is the centre of fashion and culture. Inside the palace, the wealthy, wise, and powerful mingle, and their conversations shape the future. For a skilled negotiator, there is no better place to be. An idea seeded here, a name dropped there, a favour turned, and a courtier can quickly rise to prominence, wealth, Knighthood and more. Courtier is a game of the royal court of the City-State of Tempest. Play cards to influence key personalities or adjust the board to your advantage. Gain control of coteries to use their special abilities. Influence the right courtiers, and complete petitions to score points. Whoever has the most points at the end of the game wins! Contents: 48 influence cards 44 power cards 26 petition cards 17 fashion cards 8 coterie ability cards wooden cubes game board rules Mercante Direct link : http://www.spiritgames.co.uk/single.php?menu=2&sub=n&game=7248 A large, safe harbour astride a dangerous stretch of seagoing trade routes, the docks of the City-State of Tempest are said to be the busiest in the world. Ships from every known nation - and a few that are little more than rumours - conduct their business here in this polyglot city. Among this chaos of cargo and shouting and gold, the great merchant houses conduct their affairs with the ruthlessness of crocodiles. Their goal: Be the only merchant house in Tempest. Achieving that goal takes courage, calculation, and a gambler's calm. Mercante is a game of economic warfare between merchant houses. The war is fought with gold, contracts, market manipulation, and outright theft. You play one of nine merchant houses, each with a unique ability. Buy and sell commodities, fulfill contracts, turn a tidy profit, or drive down the value of your opponents' goods. With a realistic market model and every player involved in each auction, Mercante will test your mercantile mettle! Contents: 1 market board 5 merchant ledgers 3 reference tracks 9 house power cards 32 shipment cards 38 event cards 20 contract cards 72 goods tokens 1 reference track marker 2 upkeep markers 20 agent markers 15 warehouse markers victory point tokens coin tokens rules Dominare Direct link : http://www.spiritgames.co.uk/single.php?menu=2&sub=n&game=7249 From the busy, rugged quays of the Merchant Quarter to the ornate magnificence of the Great Basilica, from the imperious chambers of the Senate to the stinking, crowded alleys of the Swamp, secret cabals move unseen in the City-State of Tempest. These clandestine societies, bound by blood oaths and driven by power, conspire to seize control of Tempest. They wage a secret war with words, gold, and a knife in a darkened alley. When it is won few will be wiser as to who really pulls the strings in this great city. Dominare is a game of the hidden war for total control of Tempest. The weapons of this war are people, and Dominare provides dozens of "weapons" for you to wield. Use your agents to build a conspiracy, and watch it grow in power as you add to it. Agents spread influence through eight city districts each with unique advantages, and use your agents abilities to wrest control of key parts of the city from the opposition... for in the end, control is all that matters. Contents: 1 double-sided game board 95 agent cards 30 event cards 8 district ability cards 6 reference cards 50+ influence tokens each in 6 colours 8 victory point markers (unpainted) coins in various denominations rules Love Letter Direct link : http://www.spiritgames.co.uk/single.php?menu=2&sub=n&game=7250 Win the Heart of the Princess! All the eligible young men (and many not so young) seek to woo the princess of Tempest. Unfortunately, she has locked herself in the palace, and you must rely on others to bring their romantic letters to her. Will yours reach her first? Love Letter is a game of risk, deduction and luck. Get your love letter into the Princess Annette's hands while keeping other player's letters away. Powerful cards lead to early gains, but make you a target. Rely on weaker cards for too long and your letter may be tossed in the fire! Contents: game rules 16 game rules 4 reference cards 13 tokens Northwest Passage Adventure Direct link : http://www.spiritgames.co.uk/single.php?menu=2&sub=n&game=7251 The Northwest Passage is a sea route between Canada and the North Pole, connecting the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans.

Players alternate activating their individual officers, who must maintain their troops' morale under fire while 3effectively coordinating tanks, infantry and artillery to win the game. In July 1943, history's greatest tank battle erupted when the German Army hurled 50 divisions at the Red Army around the city of Kursk, including 17 panzer and panzer grenadier divisions with over 3,000 tanks. Long aware of German plans, the Soviets were ready and waiting, with heavily fortified lines backed by 3,600 tanks of their own. On the battle's south flank, Soviet Guards met the Waffen SS panzers. Modern War #3: Somali Pirates Direct link : http://www.spiritgames.co.uk/single.php?menu=2&sub=n&game=7271 Somali Pirates is a wargame set in a hypothetical Coalition campaign to destroy the power of pirates based in Somalia, as well as to otherwise gain control of that country. The assumption of the game is that the pirates, in league with local warlords and Al Qaeda, have become strong enough to be an even bigger threat to the region than they are now. In response, various powers launch military action against them. There are two players in Somali Pirates: the Coalition, who wants to destroy the Pirates, and the Pirates, who want to survive, as well as to maximize their own power and wealth.
