Welcome to Barovia Treasure Packs

 the Welcome to Barovia blind bags from Sirius Dice contain thousands of different possible combinations.  There are 55 different dice sets, 31 possible ability coins  and 7 different dice bags making, according to my calculations, at least 11,965 possible sets in each blind bag. Each of the dice pouches bears a symbol derived from some aspect of Ravenloft.

Hummingbirds

 Hummingbirds is a new boardgame from The OP. Designed by Jason Tremblay, the designer of Tacta, Hummingbirds is a resource and time management game. Players move their birds to perch on hidden sand timers, attempting to collect the most nectar.  If you check the timer on which your bird is perched and it has run out, you gain a token.  If the time is still running, you lose a token. You may think you know how long 30 seconds is but are you sure?

The mythical Bikeboss, Wazzdakka Gutsmek, explodes from the ancient pages of obscurity unto the fabled world of Armageddon. Wazdakka has existed in the background of Warhammer 40,000 for years, and has even had rules in the past – meaning that any intrepid Mek had an opportunity to kitbash their own Bikeboss. This is the first time that he’s had a miniature though, and he’s racing onto tabletops in glorious plastic.  It’s widely known among Gutsmek’s fellow Speed Freeks that his grand ambition is to race Big Revva from one end of the galaxy to the other, and the new Warzone Battalion: Orks Speed Freeks join him in the fastest WAAAGH! the Warhammer 40,000 universe has ever seen!
