• Speaking of Osprey Games, Peer Sylvester's The King Is Dead was the first board game released by that company, and a second edition of the game with new art, new graphic design, and a new asymmetric game mode for advanced play will be released in July 2020.
• That Osprey Games title will be followed in August 2020 by the release of Wildlands: The Ancients, which is described as a big box expansion for Martin Wallace's Wildlands.
• And that title will be preceded in May 2020 by Judge Dredd: Helter Skelter – The Dark Judges, also from designer Martin Wallace, with that expansion introducing new characters to the Judge Dredd: Helter Skelter base game, characters perfectly depicted by Brian Bolland in a story that I re-read oh-so-many times in my youth:
Judge Dredd: Helter Skelter – The Dark Judges is an expansion for the base game that introduces The Dark Judges, a new team that can be played against others in Judge Dredd: Helter Skelter or competed against on your own in a solitaire game.
• To continue the chain of this post, let's end with a quick look at Martin Wallace's The Rocketmen, a 1-4 player game that Polish publisher PHALANX plans to release in 2020:
Immerse yourself in a fast-paced race to the final frontier: space. A deck-building confrontation of swift decision-making and tactical estimates, The Rocketmen gives you the feel of taking a front seat in a technologically wonderful spectacle of space exploration. It's up to your predicting abilities and cash flow maintenance know-how what kind of endeavor would be most suitable for paving the way to Earth's celestial neighbors. It doesn't matter whether it would be a low Earth orbit satellite or a manned base destined for Red Planet; plan your mission carefully, equip your shuttles and rockets craftily, yet do not hesitate when your gut instinct tells you to go for a lift-off! The universe might wait for you eternally, but your opponents won't!
