Games for this weekend №15

Today, we are happy to present to you

1. Darkrock Ventures

Space is a hostile environment with a known alien presence. Resources are scarce and it is commonplace for companies to mine asteroids to acquire them. It is known that aliens raid these asteroids and therefore mining companies are geared accordingly in preparation of being attacked. Lives are lost in this line of work daily, but if you run a good crew you can make it out alive and rich!

2. Jugger TTG: Dogskull Heroes

Jugger TTG™ is a board game simulation of a real-life modern sport that simulates a fictional gladiatorial sport featured in a 1980's cult movie, "The Blood of Heroes" (also known as "The Salute of the Jugger" and "Salute to the Jugger").

In 2015 Jugger fanatic and games designer, Stuart Shaw, took on the challenge of creating a tabletop board game by fusing his game system, Siostam™, with modern Sport Jugger rules. The result is an exhilarating, fast paced action tabletop game, Jugger TTG™, where you get to take charge of your own Jugger team and lead them to victory and glory against the best Jugger players in the world.
