Fire and Swords: new expansion for War of the Ring - The Card Game.

Ares Games will be at Gen Con 2024 (Booth #541, August 1-4, Indianapolis) with new releases, previews of upcoming games, and a special event: the War of the Ring – The Card Game Gen Con 2024 Grand Prix. The first copies of Fire and Swords, the new expansion for War of the Ring – The Card Game, will be available at the show, along with Barbarian Kingdoms, by Jester Games, exclusively distributed in the USA by Ares Games.

At the Ares Games booth, gamers will find unique deals and promos for our latest releases: Quartermaster General East Front, Pyramidice, War of the Ring - Kings of Middle-earth, Stalingrad Roads, and Port Arthur. Northwind Tales, the newest expansion for Sword & Sorcery: Ancient Chronicles, will be available with a limited number of first printing copies. The awaited reprints of the game mats for Wings of Glory and Sails of Glory will also arrive at Gen Con.

Altay - Dawn of Civilization: new gaming coming later this year.

Gen Con will be the first opportunity to discover the upcoming games set for release later this year: Ole Steiness and Paolo Mori’s Altay - Dawn of Civilization, a game that mixes deck-building, civilization development, and area expansion, Peter Ridgeway’s Builders of Sylvan Dale, a unique three-dimensional tile placement game, and Martin Wallace’s Aeterna, a sophisticated euro game set in Ancient Rome. Previews at Gen Con will also include Viking Route, a cooperative game using an ingenious compass-and-magnets movement mechanic, to be launched soon on Kickstarter.

Over 60 events spanning the entire Ares Games’ catalog will be run at Gen Con by Double Exposure, in addition to the demos at the booth. The largest event this year is the War of the Ring: The Card Game Gen Con 2024 Grand Prix, a tournament played in three rounds, each using a unique scenario specifically designed for the event by Ian Brody. Up to 64 players can participate in the event, which will grant a $250 gift certificate at Ares’ booth as the first prize, along with a special edition of some of the most beautiful cards from the core set, art prints, gift certificates, and guaranteed fun for all participants. The tournament will begin on Friday, August 2nd. Registration is open at Gen Con website and the the first round's scenario is available for download.
