For this round-up, I'm highlighting titles that will contain miniatures, which typically means that the games will engulf your entire table, although that's not always the case.
• To start things off, we'll look at Ascension Tactics: Miniatures Deckbuilding Game from Justin Gary and Stone Blade Entertainment, with this being a title that was debuted at the show and that won't hit retail until 2021.
As you can probably tell from the name, this design pairs the deck-building aspect of Ascension with a tactical miniatures game and a distinct lack of dice.
• We first saw Super Fantasy Brawl from Jochen Eisenhuth and Mythic Games at the FIJ 2019 fair in Cannes (video link), and now a year later Mythic's Sam Healey led us through a much more polished version of the game.
• Healey also presented an overview of Mythic's Steamwatchers from Marc Lagroy, which was on Kickstarter (link) at the time of the broadcast. In the game, you lead a nomadic tribe across a frozen Europe in search of elusive and transient steam columns that allow you to grow food and survive.
• Evil Dead 2: The Boardgame from Jasco Games and Lynnvander Studios features an ugly face on a heartwarming story (as told here in August 2019) of how this game came to exist.
• Miniatures are a hallmark of releases from Petersen Games, so you will not be surprised to find them in Sandy Petersen's Hyperspace, an asymmetric 4X design that was Kickstarted in February 2019.
