Gen Con 2023 is fast approaching!

Just like last year, Fantasy Flight Games will be appearing at this massive event in Indianapolis, Indiana. You may have already registered for some of our events, but just in case you missed any of the information floating about, here is a quick look at the events we’ll be hosting. We hope to see you there!

Arkham Horror: The Card Game

Gen Con 2023 Scenario

As is tradition at Gen Con, we will be hosting a large-scale multiplayer event for Arkham Horror: The Card Game! Join game designer Duke Harrist as he guides investigators through a revamped version of a classic standalone scenario, this time with a new, unique twist!

What horrors will await you in this special event? Stay tuned in the coming weeks to find out! Please note that you will need to bring your own deck to this event!

Promos:

It’s a mystery! You’ll just have to wait until the full reveal.

Descent: Legends of the Dark

Learn-to-Play

With its second Act, The Betrayer’s War, releasing shortly after the event, Gen Con provides the perfect opportunity to jump into the grand adventure that is Descent: Legends of the Dark! This learn-to-play event has you experiencing the base game’s first scenario, where you will take control of one of four heroes—Brynn, Galaden, Syrus, or Vaerix—and launch your journey into the world of Terrinoth.

Descent: Legends of the Dark offers an experience unlike any other. If you’ve been waiting to try the game out, then Gen Con is the perfect chance!

Promos:

Anyone who participates in this learn-to-play will get a special set of Hobby Next promo dice for Descent: Legends of the Dark!

The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game

The Hunt for the Dreadnaught Scenario

The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game is back at Gen Con, with another round of the massive multiplayer scenario, The Hunt for the Dreadnaught. Hot on the heels of the release of the Dream-chaser Campaign Expansion, this high seas adventure has multiple teams of heroes working together to overcome the threat of vicious Corsairs. Join game designer Jeremy Zwirn and experience this epic scenario for yourself!

If you think you’ve got what it takes to sail the dangerous waters of Middle-earth, then be sure to sign up for this event here. Please note that you will need to bring your own deck to this event!

Dream-Chaser Campaign Expansion **– Voyage Across Belegaer Scenario**

And speaking of sailing the high seas, if you haven’t yet started your voyage through the Dream-chaser campaign, you’ll have the opportunity to try out the campaign’s first scenario at Gen Con as well. Chart your course and set sail through the Voyage Cross Belegaer as you begin the epic tale of the Dream-chaser!

When you’re ready to board your ship and chart your course, be sure to sign up for the event here. Please note that you will need to bring your own deck to this event!

Promos:

Participating in either of The Lord of the Rings: The Card Game events will net you a slick acrylic first-player token to use in your games at home.

Marvel Champions: The Card Game

NeXt Evolution Sneak Preview

Marvel Champions: The Card Game will have a big presence at Gen Con this year, with no less than three different events! The first of these events is a chance to play the first scenario of NeXt Evolution, the sixth campaign expansion for the game and one that will be hitting store shelves just a couple short weeks after Gen Con. In this scenario, Morlock Siege, you and your fellow heroes take on the Marauders and try stop them from wreaking havoc in the Morlock tunnels beneath New York.

If you’re as excited for the next wave of Marvel Champions content as we are, then you won’t want to miss this opportunity to try out the first scenario of NeXt Evolution early! Just make sure you bring your own hero deck, as we will not be providing previews of any new heroes. You can sign up for the event here.

Marvel Champions Campaign Contest Scenario

Toward the end of last year, we hosted a special campaign contest for Marvel Champions, in which fans of the game could mix-and-match scenarios and modular sets from throughout the game’s expansions and use them to create their very own custom campaigns. At Gen Con this year, we’ll be hosting a special opportunity to play a scenario from one of the contest’s winners with other fans of the game. This scenario is the very first one from Awesome Campaign Volume 1, which pits you and your team against the powerful and dangerous Ronan the Accuser. Thankfully, you’ll have some support from the Guardians of the Galaxy and some extra setup rules, making this a scenario a uniquely fun challenge!

You can sign up for this event here. Please note that you will need to bring your own hero deck to this event, and that hero cannot have the Guardian trait. You’ll also need to bring a Basic Guardian ally to aid you in the fight against Ronan.

Marvel Champions Learn-to-Play

What if you’ve never played Marvel Champions: The Card Game, and you’re wondering what all the hype is about? Not to worry, we’ve got you covered there as well: the third Marvel Champions event we’ll be hosting is a learn-to-play event geared toward folks who’ve yet to dive into this awesome card game. Take on the villain Rhino, stop him from breaking things and taking things, and learn what kind of hero you want to be.

You can sign up for this event here. Pre-built hero decks will be provided—all you’ll need is the desire to fight crime!

Promos:

If you participate in any of the three Marvel Champions: The Card Game events, you will be awarded with two sets of special alternate-art promo versions of the Energy, Genius, and Strength resource cards. One set will be themed after Spider-Man (Peter Parker), and the other is themed after Captain Marvel!

Marvel D.A.G.G.E.R.

Learn-to-Play

Jumping from our first Marvel game to our most-recent one, anyone who has yet to try out Marvel D.A.G.G.E.R. can take the game for a spin in this learn-to-play event. Choose your hero and race across the globe with your team to complete missions, battle enemies, and face off against the nemesis in a final showdown!

Anyone who participates in this learn-to-play will walk away with alternate-art versions of the game’s hero sheets!

Twilight Inscription

24-Player Game

Twilight Inscription is a roll-and-write game designed for 1 to 8 players…but what if it was bigger? In this event, we’ll be showcasing some special massive-multiplayer rules for the game that allow up to 24 players to face off at once! With all of the game’s factions in play at the same time, the Twilight Imperium galaxy has never felt this grand.

Be sure to sign up for this 24-player game of Twilight Inscription here.

Promos:

Participants in this learn-to-play event will earn themselves a pair of alternate-frame versions of the game’s starting base cards.

***Star Wars*: Unlimited**

Game Demos

At Gen Con, you’ll have the opportunity to get a sneak peek at Star Wars: Unlimited, FFG’s new trading card game of unlimited possibilities! We’ll be hosting lots of demos for the game throughout the weekend of the event, allowing people to get their first real look at how the game is played.

Twilight Inscription is Now Available

Check out the latest product from Fantasy Flight Games, now available in the United States at your local retailer or online through our web store!

Twilight Inscription

The Lazax Empire has burned to ash, rejected by its subjects. The aftermath was tragedy and petty conflict in equal measure, a time of loss and exhaustion. In the ensuing Dark Years, the factions of the galaxy retreated and recovered their strength. Now, they look upon the stars and see an opportunity—a chance to reclaim what was lost. A chance to redefine galactic civilization. A chance to leave their mark upon the stars.

Twilight Inscription, an epic roll-and-write game for one to eight players, offers an experience unlike anything Fantasy Flight Games has done before. With a limited pool of resources at your disposal, you’ll need to carefully manage Navigation, Expansion, Industry, and Warfare as you amass victory points and earn your right to the throne on Mecatol Rex. Will your faction become the new rulers of the galaxy? Or will your fledgling empire fade into obscurity? Anything can happen in this strategic, infinitely-replayable game!

You can pick up your own copy of Twilight Inscription (TIN01) at your local retailer or online through our webstore today!*

Marking the Galaxy

Published 25 May 2022 | Twilight Inscription

Marking the Galaxy

Announcing Twilight Inscription, a New Game in the Twilight Imperium Universe

Fantasy Flight Games is proud to announce Twilight Inscription, a brand-new game in the Twilight Imperium universe!

This epic roll-and-write game for one to eight players offers an experience unlike anything FFG has done before. With a limited pool of resources at your disposal, you’ll need to carefully manage Navigation, Expansion, Industry, and Warfare as you amass victory points and earn your right to the throne on Mecatol Rex. Will your faction become the new rulers of the galaxy? Or will your fledgling empire fade into obscurity? Anything can happen in this strategic, infinitely-replayable game!

Write Your Legacy

Much like how Twilight Imperium is a massive board game, Twilight Inscription is a massive roll-and-write. Where most roll-and-writes have each player filling out a single board (referred to as a “player sheet”) as they play, Twilight Inscription has you filling out four!

During setup, each player starts off by choosing a faction, such as the Arborec , the Emirates of Hacan , the Nomad , or the Titans of Ul . All 24 of Twilight Imperium’s factions are here, and each has its own unique abilities. Once you have your faction, you take one of each of the aforementioned four player sheets: Navigation, Expansion, Industry, and Warfare. These are what you’ll be writing on as you play the game. These sheets are reusable, and you’ll write on them with dry-erase chalk markers, which are included with the box. And the coolest part? There are eight different versions of each sheet! This means you can start with a vastly different setup than your opponents. (Don’t worry—for those of you who prefer that everyone starts with the exact same setup, that option is also included.)

Here are a few of the different Expansion sheets. As you can see, each of them has a different collection of planets to explore.

Between all the factions you can play as and the different player sheets you can use, no two games of Twilight Inscription will feel quite the same. Now, let’s take a look at the things you’ll be doing during a game.

Each round kicks off with an event card. Most of these are “strategy events,” such as Fledgling Empire and Echoes of the Past . These grant you resources, which, along with the resources rolled on the dice, you then spend on one of your player sheets in a multitude of ways. You do this by using your marker to cross off the resource costs for whatever it is you’re trying to do (hence the “write” part of roll-and-write). Just keep in mind that you can only spend resources on one sheet per round!

There are a lot of things to spend resources on across all four sheets, and figuring out the best place to do so is part of the core strategy in Twilight Inscription. Maybe you want to discover new systems or race to Mecatol Rex on Navigation; perhaps you’d rather develop some planets on Expansion; you could always generate commodities to amass your wealth on Industry; or maybe you just want to build up your fleet on Warfare. You’ll gradually gain victory points no matter which sheet you invest in, but take care not to neglect any of them; otherwise, unexpected events could throw you off your game!

For example, some event cards, such as Border Conflict , will trigger a war, which involves you comparing the strength of your fleet (located on your Warfare sheet) to those of your neighbors. You earn victory points if your fleet is stronger than a neighbor’s, but you can also lose points if your fleet is weaker than theirs.

In a similar vein, if a council event occurs, such as Convene the Council , you’ll need votes, which you can build up on your Industry sheet. The effects of agendas like Technology Embargo and Corporate Tax Breaks can have serious effects on the game, but if you’ve been neglecting your Industry sheet, you won’t have enough votes to ensure the outcome is the one you want.

All in all, striking the balance between Navigation, Expansion, Industry, and Warfare is the key to achieving victory. There are endless possible strategies that you could use to pull ahead of your opponents—the question is, which approach is the best for you? The game goes until the war event A Throne for the Taking is resolved, at which point everybody’s victory points are tallied. Whoever has the most is the winner!

Alone Amongst the Stars

You may have caught it earlier when we mentioned the player count, but you can play this game solo as well!

If you play the game by yourself or with only one other player, than you will square off against an AI opponent. The AI opponent follows its own set of rules, and its objective is simple: make as much progress along its goal tracks as possible. The AI doesn’t earn any victory points for itself, but it does disrupt you (and your human opponent, if there is one) in your quest to earn points of your own. For example, the AI will actively oppose you in warfare and council events, so you will still want to make sure you build up your fleet and votes as much as you can. If you haven’t earned a certain number of victory points by the time the game ends, then the AI has beaten you, so bring your A-game!

A New Chapter

Twilight Inscription is an all-new way to experience the Twilight Imperium universe. This roll-and-write is FFG’s first foray into the genre, and the game is as epic and massive as anything in the TI universe should be. Make your mark on the galaxy and claim the throne when Twilight Inscription launches this fall!

You can pre-order your own copy of Twilight Inscription (TIN01) at your local retailer or online through our webstore today!
