Gen Con 2018 Live Blog: Day One
The Latest And Greatest From CMON
CMON had a bunch of cool new upcoming games with them at their pre-show event, ranging from the fun of the Wacky Races to the warring cartels of Narkos.


































I like the CMON work. They will bring nice stuff in 2019!
much love for CMON at the minute, still buried under a pile of Song of Ice and Fire from the kickstarter haha
those two new armies for Son of Ice and Fire look incredible… but I still love the Starks better
Love the CMON, but wish they would build and continue with their Wrath of Kings line/story. I am interested in Starcadia quest .. wondering if I could put it into my forthcoming Battlesystems terrain.
The sound seems to have gone on this???
Victorian Masterminds.
What happens when Dick Dastardly meets Prof. Pat Pending
You got to do a lets play.
So want Wacky Races!
I just got my Song of Ice and Fire kickstarter today. The new factions are on my wishlist!
I just own Wacky Races!
Show more Starcadia
Project ELITE and Starcadia both look amazing for very different reasons. Starcadia is such an chibi game in space, who wouldn’t like that while Project ELITE I love because of the gameplay mechanics of suddenly your turn has to be completed in a fixed time frame.
all the new games look tempting.
The Nights Watch looks good.
Really looking forward to Project Elite. Just discovered the game right before CMON announced they had rights to produce the new edition. Wacky Races may be right up my alley, too! Maybe they can create a “Laff-a-lympics” game, too….
I am really looking forward to my KS for ZC Invader! The core box looks great.
And where did they demo the games? Is that the RAM pub?
It was in the Granite City Grill where they had secured a nice little area to showcase and demo a number of games.
i backed the new zombicide so I cant wait for that
Yes. Knights Watch! Love that.
Ugh, dang it, I’d been behaving real well recently 🙂 looks like starcadia is on my hit list though now.
I really need to see more about Victorian Masterminds!
Surprised they didn’t have the Cthulu game at the pre-event, I’ve seen some images of the massive 2 foot ‘miniature’ that they’ve got at Gen Con but it must be on the convention floor. Definitely go check that out guys
Agreed they had a painted and unpainted one on the exhibition stand, if they had been at this event they would have taken up a lot of space.
I´m getting old an inflexible and therefore I´d go for the classic stuff like Zombicide and Ice & Fire. The models for the latter are ever so beautiful. Is there a new twist in the Zombicide game to inject some freshness into it?
oof Those Free Folk giants are probably going to tempt me into Song of Ice and Fire 😀
Wacky Racers hit the nostalgic button for me. Plus I can get double the use for the cars in Gaslands!
I’m really hit or miss on this stuff
Really like the frantic 2mins of the original project elite. Be interesting to see what if any changes CMON make to it.
Wacky Races needs to be a lot of fun, ot there may be rioting 😉
cool games
i think the last cmon kickstarters were not so great, but here are many good looking games. 🙂
It would have been nice if CMON had made sure that everybody got their Rising Sun KS before selling them in stores. There are people still waiting for their copy.
I like the look of Project Elite. Also WACKY RACES! Count me in!
Damn CMON stop taking my money 🙂 kidding keep up the good work lads
I want starcadia quest, I’d love to see more Wrath of Kings (and find it easily available in the UK)
Man the next year is going to be rough for my wallet. So many great looking games. I’m going to get Project elite for sure (been eyeing that one for a long time now). And I’ll probably hop in to starcadia quest if previews are good, since I missed out on the original KS’s of Arcadia quest. Not sure if the extra content in the grizzled is worth buying if you got the original game and expansion, which I just bought this year.
so many awesome products from cmon, can’t wait to tri song of ice and fire.
Love the Song of ice & fire minis, especialy those giants
Starcadia quest has to be the one for me.
Narkos looks very interesting.
wacky races sounds fun – time for just light hearted fun
Really digging the coverrage guys. No surprise yous caught the dice tower there
Looking at the Project Elite miniatures many seem to be Studio McVey miniatures originally intended for the Sedition Wars universe before it was cancelled. Good to see these getting a game as they are beautiful minis.
I would love them if they made Xenoshyft miniatures. Its such a fun board game with great art that I want the minis.
Cash is in danger some new goddies for cmon, fire and ice Seems great
Wacky Races – Can’t wait.
