N.B: the main "interesting games" wholesaler has warned that, with the fall of the ukL from us$2 to ~us$1.50, the cost prices and therefore the ukL rrps of games imported from merkia are going to be rising by ~30% above their pre-November 2008 prices; this is unavoidable.
some of the new, higher ukL prices have already begun to feed through, so if there are games, sourcebooks, expansions and adventures already in stock (or available) that you know you want, please don't leave buying them too long, or the prices could easily be (roughly) one third higher than they are now...

- Innsmouth Horror - NEW GAME EXPANSION in 3rd June 2009 ukL 39.99
Return Once More, This Time to Explore the Misty, Dream-Haunted Shores of the City of Kingsport, where the Dimensional Barriers protecting Reality are at their Thinnest, and you will need all the help you can find, to succeed in your battles against the Ancient One.
introduces unique Personal Stories for Investigators (Players' Characters), as well as the "Innsmouth Look" - the whole town of Innsmouth is hostile towards nosey strangers, so the investigators may well find themselves thrown into Jail whilst searching for evidence, and fed to a Shoggoth [or Shoggoloth, Chuckulukk?]...
but leaving Innsmouth for more hospitable (and safer) parts would be equally inadvisable, as the Deep Ones will gather in the festering gloom, and bring the Ancient Ones with them.

A Co-Operative Boardgame Expansion for 1-8 Players Ages 12-96 designed by Richard Launius & Kevin Wilson for 1-8 Players Ages 12-96, 2-4 Hours Playing Time advised for the original Arkham Horror boardgame; as this expansion comes complete with new board for the town of Dunwich, playing time 2-4 Hours; the combined total Playing Time of two (or three, or four) of the full-sized games is likely to be considerable...

It is Spring 1901, and the Great Powers are on the march towards military domination of Europe: this can only be achieved through negotiating strategic agreements; through making defensive & offensive alliances - making, and breaking them; and the best time to give notice of ending an alliance - or stabbing an ally in the back - is when they can do nothing about it!
