Fantasy Flight Games Announces Star Wars: The Deck Building Game

Today, on the last day of Gen Con, Fantasy Flight Games announced Star Wars: The Deckbuilding Game at the very end of their Day 4 in-flight short. The stream ended without further details, leaving only a few images, including one of what appears to be the box cover. 

The game is designed by Caleb Grace, the lead developer of Lord of the Rings: The Card Game, and one of the three designers of Marvel Champions: The Card Game.

With no additional details, we'll need to wait for FFG to reveal more information about the game and a potential release date.

She-Ra: Princess of Power Card Game

About nine months ago, I started work on a custom card game for my daughter who loves She-Ra: The Princess of Power.  After creating a template in Excel, using screen captures of She-Ra episodes from Hulu, and using my rudimentary Photoshop skills, the card images were complete last month.  Thankfully, Artscow had a sale on custom card decks a few weeks ago.  The three custom decks arrived from China earlier last week and we played for the first time a few nights ago.  The game is based loosely on the Star Wars CCG from the late 1990s.  We used just the basic rules, but each card has attributes for a more complicated game.  My daughters loved it, and we are looking forward to playing again soon.

Frostgrave - Elsa and Anna from Frozen

Last weekend I sat down to paint two miniatures I ordered from North Star Military Figures for Frostgrave.  The description is for Fire Elementalists to avoid potential legal action, (else Mickey Mouse "gonna' sue somebody").  Although they will work well for Frostgrave, I could use them for Warhammer Quest:  Silver Tower or Age of Sigmar....  I'm happy with how the snow bases turned out.
