Z-Man Games is releasing two games in August:  Kings & Things and The King Commands.

 

Originally published in the 1980s, Kings & Things is a mix of area-control wargame and Tom Wham’s unique humor.  In the game, players recruit armies of bizarre creatures and pit them against their opponents to control a magically mixed-up landscape.  Bluff and strategy are both important elements of play.  Designed by Tom Wham and Rob Kuntz.

 

This is the English language version of the updated edition recently published by Pegasus Spiele in Germany.  It was originally announced for a late 2009 release and has been delayed.

 

The King Commands is a card game for two to six players, set in the turbulent period following the death of King Arthur.  The knights now compete for control of the treasures of Camelot, attacking one another through card play.  The player who can collect the most treasures wins the game.  Designed by Magnus Esko.  Suggested retail price will be $15.00.
