New Stuff at the Store

It's going to get insanely busy later in the week (I predict), so here's the schedule of releases for this week. Gencon begins today, so it's mostly about the early role-playing game releases.

Board Games

• Sector 41. A "nice puzzle game."
  

  The board is a grid of 81 randomly placed tiles that are revealed as the Explorers search for the Glynium. Explorers can intercept each other and the Mother Ships can Fold Space to alter the configuration of the board.

• Martian Rails. A crayon style train game.
  

Martian Rails is a railroad building game set on a fictional planet Mars. Simultaneously, the game allows a world of canals and noble savages, a cold high altitude desert globe, a nearly airless planet, terraforming, nanotech cyberpunk and everything in between from 100+ years of science fiction stories set on Mars.

Collectible Card Games

• Magic 2010 Restock. Two cases will be arriving today, which should hold us over. There will be continued shortages as Wizards of the Coast is allocating the next wave of booster boxes and already taking orders on the third wave. It's a sad state of affairs, but I think our troubles with this are over. Also, Fat Packs are gone forever but intro packs are still plentiful.
• Naruto Emerging Alliance. This set completely sold out over the weekend and is no longer available. However, we have 3 boxes coming from a couple of retailers who are helping us out. They will likely arrive early next week. You can put some of the blame on this with Bandai, who has decided to underprint their sets.

Miniatures

• Infinity restock due today
• Hasslefree Miniatures: Kat, adventuress, Kitty, female adventurer with backpack & twin pistols, Oko, female Ninjitsu adept, Harem Girl, Villagers - Minstrel.
• Games Workshop (Friday): 40K Planetary Empires, Citadel Water Pot, Citadel Palette, Battlescape.
