Gen Con 2015 IX: Blood Rage, Rum & Bones, Snow Tails, FUSE, Co-Mix & Car Wars: The Card Game
Board Game: Blood Rage
• If you were looking for giant boxes with lots of stuff inside of them at Gen Con 2015, Cool Mini Or Not might have been one of your destinations, mostly because you could have checked out Eric Lang's Blood Rage, which carries an October 1, 2015 U.S. street date for those who weren't at the show or didn't back the game on Kickstarter.





Board Game: Rum & Bones
• CMON also showed of its giant pirate game Rum & Bones from Michael Shinall, with this being a giant game with pirates, not a game with giant pirates. Perhaps that one will come in the future...





Board Game: Snow Tails
Snow Tails was first published by designers Gordon and Fraser Lamont, and now it's returning in a new edition from Renegade Game Studios that keeps pretty much everything the same as in the original design.





Board Game: FUSE
• Renegade Game Studios also highlighted one of its forthcoming games at Gen Con 2015, Kane Klenko's FUSE — a real-time cooperative dice-rolling-and-splitting game that plays in ten minutes.





Board Game: Car Wars: The Card Game
• Everything old is new again, as the saying goes, and Steve Jackson Games has revamped Creede and Sharleen Lambard's Car Wars: The Card Game for a new edition, its third since 1991.





Board Game: Co-Mix
• Didn't we record a game demostration of Lorenzo Silva's Co-Mix from Horrible Games at Spiel 2014? Yes, yes we did. In any case, Ares Games is now co-publishing the game and making it available in North America, so we included the game in our broadcast special. In case you're not familiar with the game already, here is your final chance to become acquainted.
