Getting Through It
From the Publisher
Emeritus:
I
would
say this will be the first
month I am almost at a
loss for words. (Take special note to the word “almost”). Part of me feels a little disconnected even
though I still hear the same stories, read the same
news and follow the industry as normal. Maybe
I am self-centered, but I really believe the biggest
news in the industry is the sale of GameBuyer to
GTS Distribution...OK, fine, it is the Upper Deck/
Konami/Yu-Gi-Oh news that is bigger...
It seems that everyone wants to keep talking
about the economy’s effect on the industry.
Though I have found it is mostly industry folks
saying things are bad, but they are ‘getting
through it’. In a lot of ways, that is great to hear.
If your business is getting through it then there
is hope. Ironically though, most stories I read
about the economy say we will not see 2007
values until 2017 or farther. I truly hope we all
have the ability to last that long.
leap of faith on a product, chances are by the
time you need some, it could be sold out, thus,
missing the boat.
Your store has a tough time ahead, but if you
continue to use resources like GameBuyer to
help give you real answers about the marketplace and insight about the industry, we will all
be laughing about these days in the future...OK...
maybe not laughing, but we will all be proud of
how we got through all of it. Remember, tough
times do not last, tough people do.
- Aldo Ghiozzi, [email protected]
So, what can your store do to get through it?
Well, that is pretty easy to answer...Stick with
what sells. I know as times were declining your
store was already reducing stock levels with
items that were slow or not even ordering products you heard nothing about. By now, your
store is all set with a new way of doing things,
and if you are surviving now, chances are you
will weather the storm. When I reitterated this
to one retailer they believed this brought about
another problem...if your store does not take a

There are two basic types of cards used in this game: Evidence
cards and Gavel cards. The play of the game is based on the Rummy
card game, with players trying to make melds (3 or more of a kind)
of Evidence cards of the same color to score points. The Gavel cards
add a strategic element to the game not found in traditional Rummy.
The game ends when at least one player has scored 100 points or
more (or 200 points depending on the length of game desired). The
player with the highest score wins. In the event of a tie, you must
play another hand. You will need a pencil and paper to keep score
of each hand.

The Conquered East is an Urban Dungeon that details the fallen
western sections of the Karboskian City of Dro Mandras and its various sundered environs. As with other adventure supplements in the
DB series, The Conquered East does not cater to the standard display of “Adventure by character level”. Instead it offers descriptions
of what is present within the shattered walls of East Dro Mandras,
and leaves it for the adventurers to explore for good or ill, and for
the CK to determine which encounters best suit the needs of their
campaign group.

Stretching over almost 6 kilometers, the Sebring track in Florida
alternates between straight stretches,
quick curves and slow, technical turns.
Plotted over a former military training
camp turned into an airfield, this track
has been a staple in North America
since the 1930’s. Each year, the 12 hours of Sebring take place
there: an endurance race whose slightly uneven course gives
drivers the chance to test the resilience of their vehicle in the hot
and dry (when is it not humid?) Florida weather.
The second track of this expansion offers street racing fans the
chance to drive wildly in the streets of Chicago - in the East Park
area, to be precise. This track offers an urban terrain which alternates between curves and straight lines. This mad race in the
heart of city traffic will give drivers a chance to drive along the
impressive Aon Center, one of the tallest skyscrapers of the city,
to cross the Lake Shore East Park and its three tightly woven lanes
(be careful about collisions!), and then rush along the inner port
before finally crossing two vertigo-inducing bridges.

The monumental statues of the Easter Island,
known as moais, are one of the most fascinating exploits attributed to mankind.
How did a handful of sculptors, tucked away on a
miniscule island, ever manage such a feat?
Isolated from the rest of the world, they built more
than 800 statues, each weighing several tons with
certain measuring nearly 10 meters tall.
Cooperation between the tribes, innovative use of
wood and their earnest hard work are certainly part
of the explanation for their incredible feat.
These stone giants are one of the rare vestiges of
a highly refined civilization, the Rapanui, who prospered for more than a millennium in peace and tranquility.
Now it’s your turn to relive their inspiring adventure
as builders of the moais!

“This is my balance sheet. It tells me what
kind of art I like.”
Glen Willibin, sole proprietor, Glen’s Gallery
It’s not easy working for Glen Willibin, the most
notorious art dealer in town. Sure, his gallery is
the most respected and diverse, and you and
his staff are competing to become [as we are
still learning!!!]the most knowledgeable about
the trends and traps of the risky world of art
speculation. Still, Glen’s all about one thing: his
bottom line. Fail, and you find yourself stripped
of your responsibilities. Succeed, and—well, you
still have a job in the morning. That’s just the
way Glen is...
You are all employees of Glen’s Gallery, a prestigious art gallery where you are learning the ins
and outs of the business of selling fine art. Your
job is to look at trends in the art world, and recommend to Glen the types of art that are going
to attract the most customers. Customers are
represented by cards, and at the beginning of
each turn, you have a certain amount of information about the customers that will show up
this month. However, you also have to watch
out for art students, who drive away paying customers! At the end of each month, Glen looks at
the number of customers that have expressed
interest in each type of art and rewards (or penalizes) each player based on their choices.
Contains:
• 6 boards, representing the 5 different galleries
and the scoring track
• 65 cards (13 each of the 5 types of art: 11
customer cards and 2 art students)[we could
replace art students by art critics, as we all hate
critics, but okay!]
• 25 prediction pieces (4 single and 1 double
piece, in each of the 5 player colors)

Supernova is a game of space
expansion and exploration. 5
civilizations are abandoning their solar system to escape the upcoming
supernova of their sun.
Conquer new solar systems by taking over planets, mining moons, and
building the most powerful fleet of
ships by upgrading your Weapons,
Shields, Communications or Engines.
Capture the most space by the time the star goes Supernova to be
proclaimed the winner!
The combat system is a simple card driven system that is quite possibly
the simplest yet most elegant space combat system to date.
This game features some set collection, area enclosure and tile placement on a completely modular board. Play a short or a long version
of the game without changing the board. Possibly the first space exploration game where 3D space not only matters, but could be the
key to your victory!
Complete artwork by Mike Doyle. This is a 3 - 5 player game with a
playing time of approximately 90 minutes.
Based on the award-winning RPG book
Toolbox, the Ultimate Toolbox starts
offwhere the original stopped. Focusing
on inspiration, the Ultimate Toolbox is 400
pages of the best charts, tables, and seeds of
gaming adventure.
From character backgrounds and world building to pirate lore and magical portals, every
page is the key to adventure.
Covering seven distinct and ever-important topics, the Ultimate Toolbox is a must for any GM.
Whether your games take place in the city, dungeon, wilds, or even at sea, there’s a chapter
dedicated to it.
Even PCs, NPCs, and magical creations get their

WE ARE NOT THE FOOTNOTES OF HISTORY. WE FOLLOW IN THE FOOTSTEPS
OF HEROES. — TOTURI KYOJI
While the Great Clans are the Empire’s most obvious movers of great events, they are not the
only ones. Almost since the Dawn of the Empire, the Emperor has retained the right to create Minor Clans as reward to those who have
served him with great distinction, and they have
carved out the right to be recognized as history.
The Imperial Families — the Seppun, the Otomo
and the Miya — have devoted their lives to serving the Emperor directly, and although they are
small compared to the Great Clan Families, the
pride that they take in their role as the Emperor’s own retained servants makes up for their
lack of numbers. And ronin, though despised as
“wave-men,” are always useful to their betters
as freelance soldiers and on occasion important
parts of the social order.
Fealty and Freedom examines all of these Rokugani factions and gives them their due. Fealty
and Freedom features:
• Detailed histories of the Minor Clans, the Imperial Families and the role of Ronin in the Rokugan
including profiles of notable characters
• Advice and insight for playing characters from all
of these factions and how their unique perspectives
fit into the Emerald Empire
• New and updated character creation and development mechanics for all existing Minor Clans, the
Imperial Families and Ronin characters
• Historical summery describing some of the factions that have disappeared from the Empire including the Hantei and Toturi Families and Minor Clans
that have been absorbed into the Great Clans
Fealty & Freedom is the definitive source for
the inner workings and character of Rokugan’s
minor factions. Players and game masters alike
will find exciting new insight into life outside the
Great Clans. With all new schools, paths and
powerful items this book is an essential addition
to any Legend of the Five Rings library.
Fealty & Freedom is a rules supplement and its
use requires the Legend of the Five Rings Roleplaying Game Third Edition core rulebook.

3.5 WILL NEVER DIE!
Third edition RPG icon Monte Cook comes to
Paizo with a new print edition of his popular
Books of Experimental Might! Previously available only in electronic form, The Collected Book
of Experimental Might contains hundreds of options and new rules meant to inject life into 3.5
fantasy RPG campaigns.
This collection of Monte’s own house rules includes...
• A spell progression system redefining spell
levels from 1 to 20
• New rules for fighting domains such as:TwoWeapon Fighting, Mounted Combat, and Fighting Dirty, as well as techniques based on agility, speed, strength, and intellect—the domains
provide new abilities to fighter types willing to
devote themselves to a focused path.
Inherent within these two books is the idea that characters
should be able to keep on adventuring longer than the
rules currently allow and that every class can use some
extra options for greater playability. Start your own experiment now! This book combines The Book of Experimental
Might and The Book of Experimental Might II: Bloody, Bold,
and Resolute.
Sales Points
• Support for the previous edition of the world’s
most popular roleplaying game remains strong in
face of fourth edition, and a high-profile release from
an icon of 3.5 is one way to keep these customers
engaged and returning to your store.
• Previous hardcover 3.5 releases from Monte Cook
have been strong sellers, often selling through their
print run in record time.
• Extensive promotion on Paizo.com and in more
than 10,000 monthly volumes of the Pathfinder Adventure Path.

Scroll of the Fallen Races
REVIEWED BY Brett Brooks
Dr. NO’s Comics and Games
Marietta, GA
PUBLISHER White Wolf
STOCK CODE WW80208
MSRP $24.99
FORMAT 8.5” x 11”, 160 pages,
Exalted rules expansion
Presentation [7]: Like most White Wolf products,
Scroll of the Fallen Races is a very well-produced,
slick production. The art and layout are top-notch,
and the writing is well done. The only issue with
the book is the odd choice for the flip-book format.
This is the second book for Exalted that uses that
format (along with the Book of White/Black Treatise), and unlike that book, this one suffers slightly.
The other clearly shows that it was about spells and
magic, while this one only allows you to display
one of the races that the book covers--if someone is
looking for the book on the Dragon Kings and the
Mountain Folk side is face out, they might overlook
it; spine out, the format will make no difference.
Salability [7]: Aside from Dungeons and Dragons,
Exalted is the best selling fantasy game on the market.
It has a strong following, and the information on this
book is useful to most games. While not a necessity
for every player, it is very useful for Storytelllers, and
should appeal to all of them.
Gameplay [8]: At first glance, this book appears
to be little more than an update of the first edition
Exalted material that was presented in the Player’s Guide, but upon closer reading it is far more.
The Dragon King races have been updated nicely,
and the Mountain Folk material covers much never
seen before. Very useful.
Overall: White Wolf fans know their product.
They normally come in looking for a specific release
on or near the day it is supposed to be out, so instant sales are given, but on a longer term basis,
this book should hold solid appeal for Storytellers
and the occasional player looking for some new
race or character to play.
Fluxx 4.0
REVIEWED BY Jared Miller
Dr. NO’s Comics and Games
Marietta, GA
PUBLISHER Looney Labs
STOCK CODE LOO-001
MSRP $16.00
FORMAT 3-3/4”x5”x1”, 100 cards, rules
Presentation [9]: Like Monty Python Fluxx, Looney
Labs has left behind the tuck box for their new twopiece box for the Fluxx 4.0. The new box is much more
durable and keeps the cards organized and protected.
The box also has new art on the back and front that
makes it much more appealing then the original design. There is a new, larger rulesheet with a section
collecting all of the frequently asked question from
previous versions.
Salability [9]: Fluxx 4.0 is one of those games that
almost sells itself, but that does not stop Looney Labs
from promoting their product through their website,
which offers a great retailer section, conventions, and
demo copies. This new edition offers 100 cards instead of 84. The additional cards are composed of previously released promotional cards, retired cards, and
completely new cards, including a new type of card,
the Meta Rule! If that is not enough for new comers
or owners of the previous versions, all of the card art
in this set has been revitalized through new coloring,
except for three which are completely redrawn.
Gameplay [9]: This is still Fluxx, the ever changing
card game, which is a good thing. However, there
are a few surprises that are sure to excite old and new
players alike. 4.0 has taken from previous releases to
add new rules and cards, such as Creeper cards, retired cards, 10th Anniversary Party Pack cards, and
the Meta Rule. Meta Rule is going to be the biggest
game changer for people who have played Fluxx before. This is a rule card that is played at the beginning
of the game, like the Basic Rules card, and will stay in
play for the entire game. There is only one Meta Rule
now, but there are plans for more. This is a great, easy
to learn game for anyone that wants to have fun!
Alhambra Exp 5 –
Power of the Sultan:
REVIEWED BY Steve Ellis
Rainy Day Games
Aloha, OR
PUBLISHER Rio Grande
STOCK CODE RIO A15
MSRP $29.95
FORMAT 2 – 6 players, ages 8+, 5.75” x 8” x 3”
PRESENTATION [9]: This expansion is packaged
such that it will fit in perfectly with the existing base
game (Alhambra) and the other expansions for
easy consumer identification. The box is sturdy and
stands solidly on the shelf. My only complaint is the
multi-lingual packaging that clutters up the back of
the box but it’s certainly understandable from a cost
perspective. All of the components are top notch.
SALABILITY [8]: Alhambra won the 2003 Spiel des
Jahres and that virtually guarantees an existing audience is ready and willing to purchase this product.
This award winning game and its expansions have
been strong sellers for 5 years and I see no reason
for this to change. I’m also a fan of the fact that these
expansions are numbered to help feed that collector
that exists in most gamers.
GAMEPLAY [9]: The best thing about this Alhambra
expansion is that it comes with four mini expansions that
may be mixed and matched in with the base game. This
allows excellent customizability for the players and adds
countless hours of replay value to the product. Some
highlights include: New variably valued scoring tiles/
cards, Caravanserai cards utilized as money cards that
build in value over time, Culture counters offer additional scoring options, and Sultan cards add opportunities
to plan and scheme toward future building tile draws.
All of these expansions are unique and interesting and
should easily satisfy the existing fans of Alhambra.
OVERALL: As much as I am skeptical of expansions milking a franchise this is not the case with Alhambra – Power
of the Sultan. This expansion continues to enhance the
Alhambra brand and consumers should be quite satisfied
with a decision to purchase this fifth expansion.
Overall: Fluxx is a consistently solid product that
Looney Labs is always improving upon, which is only
fitting. Hardcore and casual gamers alike will enjoy
Fluxx 4.0. It is also a great entry game for people
who are new to the hobby. Retailers and customers
alike can not go wrong with Fluxx 4.0.

REVIEWED BY Steve Ellis
Rainy Day Games
Aloha, OR
PUBLISHER Rio Grande
STOCK CODE RIO A13
MSRP $59.95
FORMAT 2 - 10 players, ages 14+,
14.75” x 11.5” x 2”
PRESENTATION [8]: The cover art for this box is
perfect for cycling fans. In addition, the back of the
box does a wonderful job of showing off the game
components and summarizing the style of gameplay. Inside the box there are some of the most
solid hex tiles that I have ever seen - these are utilized to build the racecourse. The plastic cyclists are
cute and functional but I didn’t appreciate the annoying die that requires the placement of stickers.
The box itself isn’t standard and has an attached
folding lid but it works quite well.
SALABILITY [5]: Alas, despite my personal love of
cycling games, I do not feel that a $60 cycling game
has a huge potential market in the US. However, if
your store has any fans of racing games this could be
a sleeper success story if it is given an opportunity.
GAMEPLAY [8]: This game does an excellent job of
capturing the feel of professional cycling. Riders get
an amount of energy based on the course layout and
then may choose to expend that energy whenever
they choose throughout the race. The cleverest aspect
of the game is that all the riders move as one with
the peloton unless a rider has broken away or fallen
out the back of the peloton. Choosing when to break
away is where the action is in this game. Movement of
the peloton is handled with a die roll but is also subject
to some +/- conditions imposed by the starting player
each round. Individual movement consists of a die roll
and the expenditure of energy by the rider. Many aspects of cycling are accounted for with great success
such as drafting, rider specialties (climbers/sprinters),
and scoring/timing for stage racing.

Rainy Day Games
Aloha, OR
REVIEWED BY Scott Thorne, PhD
Castle Perilous Games
Carbondale, IL
PUBLISHER Z-Man Games
PUBLISHER Catalyst Game Lab
STOCK CODE ZMG 4049
MSRP $10.00
FORMAT 3 1/2” x 4 1/2” x 3/8” Box
with 110 cards
PRESENTATION [7]: This game is graphically
very simple. I enjoyed the nice clean layout on the
cards and box. The back of the box could have been
a little better, giving an idea of what a game looks
like being played, or a better explanation of how
the game is played. The back of the box makes the
game seem fairly stiff, when it’s a fun filler game.
SALABILITY [5]: Z-Man Games has a few light
card games in their line, and this is a decent addition
to their line. Z-Man does promote their games at conventions and has a retail locator on their site. They are
also fairly active on Board Game Geek and manage to
get their customers excited about some of their new
games. This game doesn’t have much buzz right now,
and most likely won’t as it was a 2007 Essen release
that didn’t get rave reviews. This edition is much nicer
with better written rules, so that helps a bit.
GAMEPLAY [6]: This is an odd trick taking games.
Each trick consists of 2 rounds of each player playing
either a number or a rule, but you must play one of
each in total. You then check to see who managed to
succeed at their rule, and they keep that rule as a victory point. You get bonus victory points for getting 3
of a kind, and 1 of each of the 5 rules. Fairly simple,
it seems fairly random, but has a decent amount of
strategy. The only issue is the game is fairly random
with 3 or 4 players as there are dummy players that
play random cards that can hurt everyone.
STOCK CODE 26302
MSRP $24.99
FORMAT Softcover 8 12x11”. 160 pages with
B&W interiors
GAMEPLAY [4]: Since Ghost Cartels is a campaign sourcebook for Shadowrun, gameplay use is
really limited to Shadowrun gamemasters. Players
will find very little to use.
SALABILITY [3]: Normally, Shadowrun products
do very well in our store. However, all of our initial
order of Ghost Cartels is still sitting on the New Release shelf. Shadowrun customers are not as interested, apparently, in campaign settings as they are
in more general sourcebooks.
PRESENTATION [5]: Ghost Cartels follows the
standard format Catalyst has adpoted for its products. The front cover features the Shadowrun logo
and title on the top with the illustration taking up
the bottom two-thirds while the back cover features a reproduction of the front cover illustration
and a brief synoposis of the contents. The title is
clearly visible on the spine so racking it spine out
won’t be a problem. No index, but there’s a very
complete 2 page TOC as well as lots of material for
the Shadowrun gamemaster.
OVERALL: Going to be a very slow seller, much
like the Shadowrun: Emergence campaign book.
OVERALL: It will sell if you bring it in, but it’s not
going to fly off the shelves. This isn’t something
to stock deep, but there isn’t much investment sitting on your shelves.
OVERALL: This is a solid racing game and most
gamers will enjoy it if given the opportunity. However, stores will likely need to work to sell it unless they
exist in a community that is crazy about cycling.
