Wonky



In Wonky, players try to get rid of the cards in their hand by stacking blocks on top of one another, ideally setting up the blocks so that someone else takes a spill and gets stuck with more cards in hand. The trick to doing this are the special blocks in the game: nine blocks — with three each in small, medium and large sizes — with three of the block sides being flat and three being curved. Set up the blocks in the right way, and you can block an opponent's path to victory.

Commander Party: Duskmourn: House of Horror


Commander Party is a Commander event where players are immersed in the Duskmourn: House of Horror setting and story. The special rules for Commander Party are designed specifically around the theme of the set, found nowhere else.

These events are ideal for players of all experiences, where they participate in a casual in-store event and get absorbed in the world of Magic.


At Duskmourn: House of Horror Commander Party, players will explore a haunted house, spending mana to unlock new rooms that grant different effects to the players and the game. Will they make it out alive? Who will be the last one standing? Players will have to persist if they want to survive the house of ever-shifting horrors!

Inbound - Halo Flash Point

At long last the Halo Flashpoint Skirmish Game is coming to KD Games. Next week we will start to demo this great new game system and it will be launching in November...

The year is 2560.

Humanity was forced to the brink of extinction by the alien alliance known as the Covenant, and even in victory many of our worlds were glassed and left in ruins.

From the ashes of the Covenant War a new generation of super-soldiers has been trained in the War Games simulation, pitting Spartan fire teams against an almost infinite combination of potential threats - including each other.



Halo Flashpoint is the officially licensed tactical miniatures game for two players. Begin your journey in the War Games combat arena, bringing a range of classic Halo game modes, troop types, and weapons to life on your tabletop. Discover an exciting game that's easy to learn, challenging to master, and rewards cool thinking under fire!

Want to find out more? Then watch this video or pop in to our shop on the High Street in Shoreham...

AQUA: Biodiversity in the Oceans (2024)


In AQUA, your starting point is a hot spot that gradually becomes surrounded by expanding coral formations. These corals serve as habitats for small marine animals. By fostering biodiverse habitats, you can then create ideal conditions for attracting the largest marine animals.

AQUA plays over 17 rounds. On your turn, you must take a new coral tile from the market and add it to your reef, then you may also attract animals to your ecosystem if you create the correct patterns of coral.

At the end of the game, the player who grew the best coral formations and attracted the most large and small sea animals will score the most points and win.

AQUA invites you to dive into the beauty and wonder of the ocean, delivering an incredible variety of gameplay experiences for the whole family.

To see how to play then please watch this video by 'Watch it Played'
 

White Dwarf 505 – Orks for Orktober

It's October, and that means just one thing at the Warhammer Studio – it's time to think about Orks, Orruks, and Orcs. Issue 505 of White Dwarf is devoted to all things brutal and kunnin' – and full of features for fans of these fungal thugs.

The centrepiece attraction is a massive mega battle report, with a brand new mission: Squig Rustlin'. The hook is simple: two warring clans of Orks are fighting over a delicious horde of bounding Squigs. Whoever gets the most Squig meat by the end of the game wins – with bonus points if you duff up an enemy warboss. Six players from the Warhammer Studio take part in this rambunctious roundup, and mission rules are included so you can play it at home.

We get a look at Jack Masters' Da Great Waaagh!, a mighty 6,500-point collection amassed over many years, and featuring two amazing looted Imperial Knights – Da Gorkaknights. It's an amazing thing to behold and a true inspiration for fans of all things mean and green.

Elsewhere there's a bundle of new Hymns of Battle Crusade rules for your Adepta Sororitas which can be used as standalone rules, or in combination with the existing rules in their Codex, and they're accompanied by details of what the Order of the Argent Shroud are up to in the Chalnath Expanse.

In the Mortal Realms, Flashpoint Moulderhunt finishes in a typically brash assault into the depths of Moulderport, and there's a battleplan where the Stormcast Eternals attempt to destroy one of the Skaven’s infernal Warpshatter Bells. There’s an extensive article on the design of the new Skaven miniatures, which also explores their 39 year history as miniatures in Warhammer.


The Bunker has all the regular features you know and love, including new scenarios of the month, and the rules behind the team's upcoming foray – a Warhammer 40,000 Crusade campaign. New Zone Mortalis rules and missions for the Horus Heresy let you relieve the Fall of Nyrcon City, and Pete Fehevari has a gruesome short horror story to curdle your blood just in time for Halloween.
