Board Game: Dungeons & Dragons: Attack Wing
Carrying on with the last of the game demonstrations recorded in the BGG booth at Gen Con 2014 we have the Dungeons & Dragons: Attack Wing – Starter Set from designers Andrew Parks and Manny O'Donnell and publisher WizKids Games, with this item due on store shelves — well, hey whaddayaknow? — October 1, 2014. This video still counts as a preview, yes!





Board Game: Marvel Dice Masters: Uncanny X-Men
• WizKids Games' Scott D'Agostino also talked about upcoming releases for its Marvel Dice Masters line, including the October 2014 release of MDM: Uncanny X-Men and many accessories that will help you bling that thing.





Board Game: Machi Koro: Harbor
• With the IDW/Pandasaurus version of Masao Suganuma's Machi Koro hitting the U.S. market, this preview of their Machi Koro: Harbor Expansion — which is designed to find in the base game box — now feels far more appropriate than it did one month ago. Good timing!

• And speaking of previews, here's an advance look at another title coming from IDW and Pandasaurus, Suganuma's Diamonsters, which like Machi Koro before it was first released by Japanese publisher Grounding before making its way into the arms of others.





Board Game: Draco Magi
• Here's yet another pair of preview videos for games that are not yet available. Man, I made good choices in leaving these for the tail end of our Gen Con 2014 coverage — or I just got lucky. The game in question is Draco Magi, from co-designers Robert Burke and Richard Launius, with Burke's own Robert Burke Games serving as publisher.





Board Game: Operation F.A.U.S.T.
• And the second title from Burke is a solo design from him: Operation F.A.U.S.T., which puts players in the role of art patrons who are trying to acquire black market art during WWII. Now that's not something you hear every day in terms of a them. Kudos!
