It is the year 011 of a uchronic 19th Century. In the mystic city of Turin, the discovery of a lost book reveals a terrifying prophecy that announces the end of the world: Fenrir, the son of Loki destined to kill Odin and cause the Ragnarök, is about to wake! In only 11 hours, the Wolf God will rise, and the world as we know it will cease to exist... But the lost book hints of a way to halt the prophecy: if someone can compose "The Song of Making" and find the one who can play it on the "Inscrutable Organ of Eternity" - a mysterious pipe organ hidden somewhere in Turin - the final battle of the gods can be delayed for another age! But who is this "Chosen One" who alone can play the sacred "Song of Making"? And where is this "Inscrutable Organ of Eternity"? Captain Snowy, Princess Lilja, the brilliant inventor Påhlsson, the detective Koleberg, the charming Lady Lewis, the Monodist Professor Johnsson, the unforeseeable Mr. Vidal and the phantasmagoric Doctor Vikström: eight lives to chose the world's destiny... But one of these souls has been possessed by the spirit of Fenrir, who needs a physical form to seek out the Chosen One and kill him! The battle for the final truth has begun: The ancient feud between good and evil is poised to begin. But how does one tell who is the champion of one, and who fights for the other? The game uses a new "mechanical" action selection system and intrigues players with a paradox: the eight characters are all working together to stop the Ragnarök but only one player can achieve victory! The characters in the game share names and faces with the members of the Symphonic Metal band Therion, and the game is officially supported by the band. Minimize

Ran is the 12th volume in the Great Battles of History series and the second game on the battles of the Samurai (following GMT's Samurai (Vol. V)). Ran covers several of the less famous of the Sengoku Jidai the Age of Warring States (more or less) in which powerful Daimyo -- Japanese feudal lords -- strove to both maintain and extend their power bases while seeking to attain the office of Shogun the power behind the throne of the Emperor. Ran simulates the highly personal form of warfare developed by the Japanese samurai wherein formal battles played out almost as backdrops to individual feats of courage bravery and devotion much of it outstanding some of it rather foolhardy all of it very Homeric. Although political and tactical victory was the bottom line collecting the severed heads of enemy samurai reigned a very close second in importance. In terms of tactics this was as in Europe the Dawn of Modern Warfare with the introduction of guns -- arquebuses -- by the Portuguese. Even with the revelatory effect of musketry Japanese battles were still pretty much a swirling non-linear affair. Ran the name the famous Japanese film director Kurosawa chose for his samurai version of King Lear roughly means Chaos. The Battles of Ran (All battles are one-half map except for Tennoji): MIMASETOGE (6 October 1569): The Takeda are trying to return to their castle base and the Hojo are trying to intercept and ambush them with twice their number. A startling Takeda victory. MIMIGAWA (11 November 1578) Interrupted while besieging Takajpo Castle the Otomi retreat into the woods then burst out to attack the Shimazu relief force only to be outwitted by clever Shimazu tactics. NAGAKUTE (17 May 1582): Tokugawa vs Ikeda in a nice small battle (less than 10000 men each). Set piece affair fought over very difficult terrain... mountains rice paddies etc. NUNOBEYAMA (14 February 1570): The Amako vs The Mori OKITANAWATE (24 March 1584): The Ry Minimize

It is 1821, and for 250 years the Philippine Islands have been under the thumb of the Spanish crown. But, in the end, the Spaniards do not really control everything. In the shadow of the colonial power, self-willed natives have established secret maritime trade with neighboring islands and the Asiatic mainland. Using odd-looking punts and fragile bamboo barks, these black market traders cram their boats with nutmeg, silk, jade, and ginseng, and set sail to smuggle them into MANILA. Succes in each venture is uncertain, as the seaworthiness of both boats and captains is poor. To add to their woes, pirates lie in wait to plunder boats that cannot escape them. Given all this, it is not surprising that wares that reach the black markets in MANILA command high prices, making the venture worth the risk for those who succeed. The black market dealers use accomplices to ensure they get the wares, bribe pilots to aid their cargoes and hinder others, and insure their cargoes against failure. And a few wealthy merchants hire pirates to attack the black market boats and secretly pocket the profits from these raids. Players: 3-5 Ages: 10 and up Playing Time: 60 minutes Minimize
