This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW).

Precis Intermedia is pleased to announce that it has acquired the intellectual property rights to the series of 25-28mm miniatures skirmish games originally created and published by Game Werks. This includes Tombstones n' Tumbleweeds(tm), New World Disorder(tm), and Zombie Apocalypse(tm).

"I'm excited about my games being in the capable hands of Precis Intermedia," said Chris Brackett of Game Werks. "I look forward to seeing them enhanced, expanded and brought to a wider audience. I think this is a wonderful development that promises much for the future of the games and their fans."

"Game Werks produced some truly entertaining games that deserve more attention," said Brett M. Bernstein of Precis Intermedia. "New World Disorder is a flexible game that can be expanded to fit a number of genres, while Tombstones n' Tumbleweeds really captures the feel of old west shootouts. These games are perfect for those who enjoy skirmish-level games, but have limited budgets, especially when combined with our Disposable Heroes paper miniatures."

Tombstones n' Tumbleweeds is an easy-to-learn game of miniatures skirmishes in the Western genre. Create colorful and distinct "Old West" characters with roleplaying  flavor, including abilities, skills, gimmicks, and the possibility of improvement. Use six-shooters, shotguns, fists, dynamite, and even gatling guns against rival gangs and townsfolk. Strap on your guns and saddle up for a ride into the Wild West!

New World Disorder is an easy-to-learn game of miniatures skirmishes in a very near and very dystopian future. Play out character-driven scenarios in a world gone wrong. Create deadly crews of murderous characters that improve as they accumulate experience from their firefights. Equip the characters with an extensive list of modern and near-future weapons that may just save their lives. Pit gangs of urban warriors against each other, as corporate mercenaries, mob hitmen, cannibals, and who-knows-what-else fight for survival on the streets of this world gone wrong.

Zombie Apocalypse is a light, miniatures game for playing out a zombie infestation. The dead have risen, cold and hungry from the grave. Break out the shotguns and crowbars, and lay the smackdown on some walking dead chumps.

These titles will be re-released in both PDF and printed formats once they are revised. For more information, visit the Precis Intermedia web site at www.pigames.net.

Incorporating one of the first e-publishing RPG companies, Precis Intermedia is known for its diverse line-up of clear and concise roleplaying games, as well as its commitment to developing new ways of working with downloadable content.
