Fantasy Flight miniatures games are handing over management to Atomic Mass Games also owned by Asmodee. They had success last year with Marvel Crisis Protocol. This will include their Star Wars games, X-Wing, Armada and Legion. Fans seem to be happy with the move. Many modern boardgames are having new branded editions using Disney IPs, including Star Wars, Marvel and Disney Parks. Is this a good move to get more people into the hobby? Does this mean these modern games are considered classics? Or will this ruin the experience and players will feel they have outgrown them? Also, Disney has stopped paying royalties to Alan Dean Foster for his novelization and sequel novels for Star Wars and also the Alien franchise. What does this mean for copyright and the future of creatives writing for established IPs? #DisneyMustPay #atomicmassgames #starwars #alien




Against the wishes of the Cardinal and the Brotherhood, Imperial explores the tenth planet, Nero. Their aggressive move breaks the Seal of Repulsion and unleashes the full power of the Dark Soul and his Apostles on the Inner Worlds. Can Cardinal Durand unite the Megacorporations to defend the system against this new horrific threat?
