SUMMARY:Megagame - Crisis: Mars
DESCRIPTION:The year is 2241 and humanity has colonised the inner solar system with space stations and mining in the asteroid belt\, and a colony and terraforming project on Mars. In recent years a growing movement on Mars is pushing for independence from the Unified Nations of Earth and they have just gained a majority in the Martian senate. You will take the role of an actor on the edge of this brewing conflict. You will have limited opportunity to change its course but conflict gives you the chance to achieve your own goals. \nCrisis: Mars is a small 2 hour megagame for 12-18 players\, played in small teams with an emphasis on negotiation and simple rules. \n  \n[18 spaces available] \nOver 18s only.

SUMMARY:Megagame - Den of Wolves: New Eden
DESCRIPTION:In this game you will play a member of a space fleet\, survivors of a massive attack from the nation of Wolf – decimating and subjugating the other settled worlds. Together you will be trying to survive in space\, flee further Wolf attacks and find a new home for your people – a New Eden. \nThe game runs for 8 to 18 players over 3 to 4 hours\, split into 8 turns. The game plays in real time\, so managing your time and delegating tasks is an important part of the game. \nEach player will be assigned a role of one of the survivor fleet space ships and must work together to succeed. Each ship represents a team of players and each come from a different nation or colony from before the attack. \nBeware\, however\, Wolf planted agents throughout the colonies before the attack and it’s highly probable that some will be hiding amongst other players in the fleet. \n  \n[21 spaces available] \nOver 18s only.
