Roll On To Victory!

As the battle for control of Esfah begins anew, you take command! Dragon Dice is the game of fast-paced fantasy combat in which the dice are also your playing pieces - your army, the terrains they seek to control, and the fearsome elemental dragons.

Choose the mystic Coral Elves, the sturdy Dwarves, the unpredictable Lava Elves, the aggressive Goblins, the deadly Amazons, the fierce Feral, the poisonous Swamp Stalkers, or the tough Undead as your forces. Each race brings its own strengths, weaknesses, and powers to the battle field. Use melee combat, missile fire, and elemental magic to seize control of the battlefield.

The Starter Set has all two players need to begin their campaign.
Each set has two races, each race has:

26 dice total
each race has 1 ten-sided monster
each race has 9 six-sided dice (1 rare, 3 uncommon and 5 common)
4 eight-sided terrain dice
2 twelve-sided dragon dice
3 army cards

Gunrunners
Direct link   :   http://www.spiritgames.co.uk/single.php?menu=2&sub=n&game=7802
 
In Gunrunners, you and your team of international agents pursue the Merchant of Death, the infamous international arms dealer, as he delivers illegal arms to rebels and drug cartels in dangerous regions around the world. Use strategic deployment of agents and special operatives to confiscate more weapons than the other police teams and you will achieve the highest honours for your work. Will you succeed in bringing the Merchant of Death to justice?

Gunrunners is a quick and clever strategy game. The outcome of the game is rarely decided early and players' use of their Special Operatives can change the balance of power in a second. With some luck, and good planning, perhaps your agents will rise to the occasion.

The ancient relics had lain dormant in the darkest reaches of the jungle since time immemorial.

But once word of their discovery broke out, all manner of would-be archaeologists rushed in. The retired university professor, the bombastic explorer, the lithe (but daring) heiress, and a shadowy Former Army captain - all wanted to be the first to lay their hands on the precious loot!

In Relic Runners you are a fearless Explorer, travelling the jungle in search of lost temples full of forgotten treasures and relics. Armed with nothing more than your trusty Pith Helmet and a nose for rare antiquities you'll explore Temple ruins and Shrines and undertake Expeditions in a race to unearth the most treasure!

Will you be the first player to overcome all the obstacles and control all the inhabitants of the castle? Whatever the outcome, the journey will be hugely entertaining!

Phantom League/(Mostly) Harmless combo

Phantom League
In Phantom League, you are the captain of a merchant spaceship. You begin as a nobody with a hunger for recognition and glory that will soon lead you onto a path of fame or notoriety

Build your career through trading, piracy, exploring new systems and eliminating your rivals in the other Leagues - phantom alliances powerful enough to challenge law and political order across the known universe.

(Mostly) Harmless
"Mostly Harmless" adds considerable depth to the Path of Fame and the Path of Infamy, while maintaining the original game's balance. Ample variants allow you to customize the play experience to your liking - you can make PvP less appealing, for example, or make the battles more deadly. New cards add vividness and detail to the 'Phantom League' setting. And additional captains and ships add to the already-high replayability.

Police Precinct
Direct link   :   http://www.spiritgames.co.uk/single.php?menu=2&sub=n&game=7745
 
The Heat is On! It's June, and summer is already heating up. Gang activity is on the rise, the Street Punk population is growing, and emergencies are happening at an unprecedented rate.

You and a handful of select officers have been appointed to task-force in charge of investigating a high profile murder case. The big challenge is to solve this mystery before the murderer escapes your precinct jurisdiction, while trying to stay on top of your normal workload. Even worse, Internal Affairs suspects that someone in the police force is corrupt maybe even someone on the investigation task-force itself!

Rumour has it, whomever this Dirty cop is, they are being bribed by forces in the underworld to prevent the crime from being solved.

Will you be able to complete the murder investigation if there is a cop-gone-bad in your ranks? If you can get this situation under control before the murderer flees, you will win the game and receive honours from the mayor himself!

High Frontier: Colonization (Ziplock)
Direct link   :   http://www.spiritgames.co.uk/single.php?menu=2&sub=n&game=7798
 
High Frontier Colonization, is the 2nd edition expansion to both the first and second editions of High Frontier.

The second edition High Frontier expansion, for 1 to 5 players, contains everything in the original expansion plus rules, cards, and game pieces for four new card modules (i.e. three new card types to research and one new starting card), one new endgame module, seven new operations, and one new movement. It plays using the legacy expanded rules, with these added features:

Multiple spacecraft (Rocket, Bernal, Freighter, and mobile factories).
Gigawatt thrusters 100X more powerful than the legacy megawatt thrusters.
Multiple Outposts (up to two).
Multiple Products from each factory (using an assumed 3D printer capacity).
Multiple Operations (one per colonist), with a variable order of play.
Freighters that carry multiple products plus a 3D printer for making replacement parts.
12-year sunspot cycle with biennial events. Triangle burns "inspire" rather than generate events.
Expansion Map extended out to the inner Oort Belt at 550 AU.
"Werner's Star" solitaire variant (2-hours playing time).
The thriving space infrastructure has hundreds of specialists working in space colonies orbiting Earth. These provide services such as antimatter manufacture, solar power beams, cycler satellites, space telescopes, the space elevator, and of course, the local tax office. But new mining and space manufacturing opportunities have arisen further afield in the High Frontier. These are reflected in new Bernal, colonist, and freighter modules allowing players to move their base of operations. The freighter and gigawatt thruster modules include new paths to victory called Futures, available if you promote the card.
