What is Konflikt '47?


It is 1947. Humanity has breached the barrier between realities, using Rifts to create previously impossible technologies. Driven by this esoteric knowledge and Rift energy, a new era of both science and superstition has engulfed humankind. The fires of World War II rage as brightly as ever. Nations bloodied and scarred by years of fighting launch fresh offensives and counterattacks. Weapons of unprecedented destruction and beings of unnatural origin dominate countless battles across land, air, and sea.

Unleash impossible technologies in a war of total annihilation

Fast-paced, action-packed gameplay provides countless cinematic moments, with fluctuating Rift energies and the ever-present fog of war ensuring that no two games are ever the same, and the outcome is never guaranteed.

What will you sacrifice to survive?

Konflikt '47 is a world of heroes and villains on all sides. All have only one goal - survival at all costs. Which path will you take, and how far will you go to achieve victory? Your decisions on the tabletop battlefield drive the narrative of your games in this savage war.

This awesome starter set contains everything you need to start playing Konflikt '47 - rulebook, models, dice, scenery, and more!

Pitting an elite raiding force of US Firefly airborne troops against hulking Axis Stahltruppen heavy infantry, with both sides backed up by deadly high-tech walkers and sporting advanced weaponry, this box is the perfect introduction to the lethal battlefields of Konflikt '47 and the foundation of a pair of powerful forces. In addition, each force is led by a powerful hero figure, unique to this set!

Whether you're a veteran wargamer, or just starting on your journey, the Konflikt '47 Starter Set is the best place to dive into the game.

Magic Presents: Friendly Neighborhood Draft


Magic Presents: Friendly Neighborhood Draft is a special in-store Magic event series, running from September 26 to November 13, 2025. It spotlights the Pick-Two Draft format—a streamlined, four-player drafting experience ideal for small groups and casual play. This program features the Magic: The Gathering | Marvel’s Spider-Man set and is great for all players, experienced or new to the format while making drafting fast, friendly, and accessible.

Unlike traditional eight-player drafts, Pick-Two Drafts allow each player to select two cards per pick, reducing the number of participants needed while maintaining strategic depth and fun. 

Games are played in pods with a minimum of four players; we recommend breaking players into pods based on attendance this way:
3–7 players: 1 pod
8–11 players: 2 pods
12–15 players: 3 pods

Players then compete in two rounds of Swiss. The undefeated (2–0) player from each pod should receive the event promo card (while supplies last).

So grab a few friends and speak to us about booking a table to enjoy some Spiderman MTG

Date for your diary - Lorcana

Blood Bowl Sevens Trophies

Our Blood Bowl Sevens League is now approaching its final couple of weeks so it is time to show off the trophies. With the all the group stages now complete I have been able to work out which of our teams will be winning the Golden Gloves Trophy for scoring the most touchdowns, the Carnage Cup for causing the most injuries, the Slippery Cleats Cup for the team that failed the most dash attempts and the Secret Agent Dagger for the team that achieved the most secret missions. With all of these categories any tie breaks were decided by secret missions (with the obvious exception of the Secret Agent Dagger of course).

However before we announce any of those it is time to see the top two prizes the winner cup and the runners up cup and of course the Champion of the Gutter...

The KD GAMES BB7's Champions Cup

The KD GAMES BB7's Runner Up

The Champion of the Gutter

All of the above are still being fought for, we have had our Quarter finals already where Barry beat Nick, Vince beat Jake, Clive beat Richard and Mark beat Aaron which means there are just four players left and only one can be the winner. 

Heading for the gutter was everyone else with a brief stop in the dungeons. Group one have played and Gary managed to scrape through against Jake, Hazy and Kevin but the other group comprising of Rob, Tom, Ben and Charlie have yet to play and still have a chance.

Some players have already won a trophy though and the are...



The Secret Spy Dagger is awarded to the team that has completed the most secret missions during the group stage of the league. These were randomly assigned at the beginning of every game and offered the teams something extra to go for as well as providing the tie breakers. This year the sneakiest team was The Ragnarock Mining Company managed by Charlie. They completed 12 missions the only team to be in double figures.



The Carnage Cup is always a crowd pleaser, teams that want this award need to be aggressive in almost anything that the do and not be afraid to put the boot in even if it causes might upset the ref. This year three teams fought for this and although The Ragnarock Mining Company and Da Green Knuckles both did well our winner this year caused 17 casualties in 6 matches and that was The Norland Lions managed by Aaron



The Golden Gloves trophy is one of the hardest trophies to get and although some of the quickest teams often do well in this catagory such as the The New Rat Giants with their gutter runs and defending champions Boneyard Deadbeats with their ghouls, this year one team really went for all the opportunities to score and despite this risky style of play were the only team to have no casualties in their squad. Scoring an impressive 12 touchdowns in 6 matches the Wilderness Wanderers managed by Barry win this award.
 


Our last award is probably the one that no manage wants. It goes to the team that has really tried to "go for it" but ever so often ended up with players flat on their face. The fans love to see players push themselves to the limit and this years winner has certainly done that. The Dissident Disorder managed by Clive managed to fall over 4 times in 6 matches whilst trying to go that extra mile.

BB Sevens - Custom Inducements

Now that our league is approaching the half way point for the division stage, it is time to announce a few custom inducements that will be available for the rest of this event.

CUSTOM INDUCEMENTS

0-1 DWARVEN SMITH

100,000 GOLD PIECES, AVAILABLE TO ANY TEAM


A Blood Bowl tournament is the ideal place for the local smiths to showcase their talents and sell their wares; many coaches are quick to purchase some extra Dwarven steel to protect their more vulnerable players or provide their heavy hitters with that extra 'edge' they need in a mid-match punch-up!

Before the game begins, a team that has hired a Dwarven Smith must roll a D6.

On a 1-3, the Dwarven Smith has provided the team with some additional armour plating. Choose D3 players on your team to improve their AV by 1 (to a maximum of 11 + ) until the end of the game.

On a 4-6, the Dwarven Smith has provided the team with a selection of ornate knuckle-dusters, steel-capped boots, and other items designed to inflict pain on the opposition. Choose D3 players on your team to gain the Mighty Blow (+1) skill until the end of the game.

0-1 FESTIVE GIFTS

50,000 GOLD PIECES, AVAILABLE TO ANY TEAM


The festive period is a time for giving and many teams engage in this tradition by secretly giving gifts to a random one of their team-mates - though, some team­mates definitely end up getting better gifts than others!

Before the game begins, randomly select one player on your team. That player has been given their festive gift and ripped it open with unbridled excitement! Roll a D6 to determine the effect of the gift.

D6 GIFT
1 More Socks...: The player gains the Animosity (all team-mates) trait as they are annoyed that their team-mates got them such a totally rubbish gift!
2 Tasty Treat: Until the end of the game, the player may attempt to Rush one more time than they usually could as they are fuelled by the delicious delicacy.
3 Protection Spell: The first time in this game that the player suffers a KO'd or Casualty result on the Injury table, they do not suffer the effects and are instead placed in the Reserves box.
4 Bugman'sXXXXXX: Until the end of the game, the player may add 1 to the roll when rolling to see if they recover from being Knocked-out.
5 Spiked Gloves: The player gains the Mighty Blow (+1) skill until the end of the game.
6 Lucky Trinket: The player gains the Pro skill until the end of the game.

BOOBY TRAPPED END ZONE

100,000 GOLD PIECES, AVAILABLE TO ANY TEAM

Victory in a game of Blood Bowl is determined by the number of touchdowns a team scores, at least in the eyes of the officials! It isn't unheard of for a particularly conniving coach to purchase some form of booby traps to hide in their own End Zone in an attempt to provide an explosive surprise for any opposition player that looks like scoring!

For the duration of the game, whenever an opposition player with the ball moves into a square in your End Zone, they must roll a D6. On a 2+ nothing happens and the touchdown is scored. On a 1, a booby trap has gone off and the opposition player is Knocked Down. No touchdown is scored.

FAMOUS MOOT BUFFET

50,000 PIECES. AVAILABLE TO ANY TEAM

Whenever a Blood Bowl tournament comes to the Moot, fans can be assured of three things: an abundance of Halfling teams getting the stuffing kicked out of them in the early rounds, referees that care more about the halftime snacks than enforcing the rules and, most importantly, the legendary Mootland buffets. Many coaches have been known to pay a budding Halfling baker to provide all manner of scrumptious snacks for their players over the course of a game, keeping their morale high, their energy levels up and using the smell of freshly baked goods to rouse those who may have been hit that little bit too hard on the field!

During the pre-game sequence, before determining the kicking team, any team that has hired a Famous Moot Buffet must roll a D6 to determine what manner of tasty treats the Halfling bakers have provided for their team. The effects last for the duration of the game.

D6 GIFT

1 Garlic Eclairs: Though delicious to eat, Garlic Eclairs do tend to leave a player's breath smelling particularly pungent, and not many opponents are willing to get near them if they can help it! Players on your team gain the Foul Appearance skill.
2 Super-sticky Buns: Sticky Buns are a firm favourite in the Moot, though eating them does leave a player's mitts somewhat stickier than before; something that does aid in picking the ball up however! Players on your team gain a bonus of +1 when rolling to pick up the ball.
3 Fresh Tripleberry Scones: The smell of freshly baked Tripleberry Scones wafting through the dugout is enough to rouse almost any knocked-out player. Players on your team gain a +2 bonus when rolling to recover from being KO'd.
4 Energy Bars: These delicious snacks are the perfect treat to fuel any player, letting them unleash bursts of energy all game long. Players on your team may Rush one more time than they usually could.
5 Amazing Apple Pie: It's long been said in the Moot that Apple Pie is very much a superfood, and many players will scoff down as many helpings as they can to keep their strength up! Players on your team gain a bonus of +1 to their ST when performing a Block action as part of a Blitz action for the duration of the action. This is applied before counting assists or applying any other modifiers.
6 Delightful Doughnuts: Everyone loves doughnuts, and no tournament is complete without players wolfing down a doughnut or three to raise their spirits! Whenever a player on your team uses a team re-roll, roll a D6. On a 5+, the team re-roll is free.

BB Sevens '24 - What are the prizes?

With our Blood Bowl Sevens League into its third week, which will be the midway point for the divisions, here is a breakdown of the prizes for this years event.

At the end of the division stage, the top two teams from each group will go through to the play offs. The matches will be played as follows...

The winner of division 1 will play the runner up of division 4
The winner of division 2 will play the runner up of division 3
The winner of division 3 will play the runner up of division 2
The winner of division 4 will play the runner up of division 1

This will give us our four semi finalists, which will lead to the two finalists and an eventual winner.

There will be a small 3D printed trophy for the first and second place, plus the winners name will be added to our in store trophy.

It doesn't end there though, the bottom two players from each division will get a second chance of claiming a prize in the dungeon. 

The 3rd place teams from divisions 1 and 2 plus the 4th placed teams from divisions 3 and 4 will go head to head in a first to score Dungeon Bowl match.

Then the 3rd place teams from divisions 3 and 4 plus the 4th placed teams from divisions 1 and 2 will play in the same dungeon. Leading to the winning two teams heading to the gutters for the a chance to be named the Champion of the Gutter and will also receive a small 3D trophy.

In addition to these there will be several other awards, which will be ...

Golden Gloves - the highest scoring team in the division stages
Carnage Cup - the team that claims the most casualties in the division stages
Slippery Cleats - the team with the most 'Go For It' fails
Secret Agent - the team that completed the most secret missions in the division stages

Fast, Fun, and Ready to Play – Starter Set: Heroes of the Borderlands

With decades of storied adventures behind it, Dungeons & Dragons continues to evolve, and its latest release, the Heroes of the Borderlands starter set, may be the friendliest entry point yet. Combining the rich narrative depth of classic D&D with the quick-start appeal of modern board games, this new boxed set invites players of all backgrounds to gather around the table and say yes to adventure.


Designed for 3–5 players and accessible to all skill levels, Heroes of the Borderlands isn’t just a teaching tool—it’s a complete, cooperative fantasy game that lets players adventure in hour-long sessions or multi-hour epic nights. It leans away from complexity that might intimidate newcomers while keeping the storytelling, decision-making, and excitement that makes D&D unforgettable.

The set centers around three adventure modes—combat, exploration, and roleplaying—that let groups tailor each session to their interests. Whether you are looking for a tactical dungeon crawl or a more social, narrative-rich experience, this modular structure delivers that flexibility in a more guided, approachable format.



Inside the box, Heroes of the Borderlands delivers everything needed for a great first impression. Players get three replayable adventure booklets, eight illustrated player boards featuring classic D&D classes (Cleric, Wizard, Rogue, and Fighter), and over 200 cards for spells, monsters, items, backgrounds, and more. Full-color poster maps showcase iconic locations like the Caves of Chaos Valley and the Keep on the Borderlands, while a wealth of tokens, handouts, and standees create a vivid, tabletop-ready experience.

For Dungeon Masters—especially first-timers—the set includes a reference booklet and a combat tracker that teaches how to track initiative effectively. It’s an intuitive way to ease new DMs into running games confidently and keeps gameplay moving smoothly for all players.

Whether your a family trying D&D for the first time, board game fans looking for something more immersive, or seasoned players introducing new friends to the hobby, Heroes of the Borderlands offers an inviting way to get started with D&D, delivering a complete and replayable adventure experience from the very first session

MTG Commander Party - Edge of Eternities

What Is Commander Party?

Commander Party is a story-inspired Commander event that immerses players in the setting of the latest set release. The vibe is fun and casual, and the events are for everyone in our community, from new players, lore enthusiasts and Life long Commander fans.

The event features special rules designed specifically for Edge of Eternities and includes play aids and party cards to support play. Each pod of three to four players receives a play aid, and party cards. 


Edge of Eternities Commander Party

Position the Edge of Eternities play aid on the table within easy reach of all players.

Place all five world cards, world side face up, in the Unclaimed Worlds space on the play aid. During the match, players will be able to claim world cards from this area.

Worlds are special objects in the command zone that players can control. They aren't permanents and can't be targeted, destroyed, or exiled. If a player loses the game, any worlds they control return to the Unclaimed Worlds space on the play aid.

Players will need a supply of orbit counters during the event. These can be any countable small object (glass beads, dice, paperclips, etc.)

Gameplay

Set up and play follows the regular Commander format rules but players all have these additional abilities:

Alternate win condition: At the beginning of your upkeep, if you control all five worlds, you win the game.

At the beginning of your end step, if one or more opponents lost 3 or more life this turn, gain control of an unclaimed world or a world controlled by one of those opponents.

Whenever you cast your commander, you get an orbit counter.

Pay 3 and pay an orbit counter: choose left or right. Each player passes control of a world they control to the next player in the chosen direction. Activate only as a sorcery.

Each world card also grants a triggered ability whenever a player gains control of it and at the beginning of their upkeep while it is in their control in their command zone.

Promo for playing

Anyone that plays the commander party event will receive an additional promo card.
