RIVET WARS: EASTERN FRONT

Rivet Wars is a miniatures boardgame that springs forth from the warped imagination of Ted Terranova - set on a world that never quite left World War I but with crazy technology like walking tanks, diesel powered armor, unicycled vehicles and armor plated cavalry! 


 


Don't let the cute visuals fool you, it's a world full of angst, war-torn camaraderie and dark humor. 


 


Rivet Wars is at its heart a strategy game, with both players deploying units each round to counter the threats set forth by their opponent and stay one tactical step ahead. 


 


Heavily influenced by Ted's experience working on RTS games like Rise of Nations, players gather resources (bunkers and capture points) and use these to deploy streams of new units! 


 


There's an ebb and flow on the tactical landscape and you can stock up surprises for your opponent to be unleashed even as he thinks he's winning!

Brass: Birmingham is a finely brewed sequel to one of history's most industrial economic games. It offers a very different story arc and experience from its predecessor.

As in its predecessor, you must develop, build, and establish your industries and network, in an effort to exploit low or high market demands. Each round, players take turns according to the turn order track, receiving two actions to perform any of the following actions (found in the original game): 1) Build – Pay required resources and place an industry tile. 2) Network – Add a rail / canal link, expanding your network. 3) Develop – Increase the VP value of an industry. 4) Sell – Sell your cotton, manufactured goods and pottery. 5) Loan – Take a £30 loan and reduce your income.
