Description:

You wake up in a dark room. You're tied up. It's pitch black. Your mouth is dry. You're wearing nothing but rags. All you hear are the faint sounds of other prisoners struggling... until you smell it. Blood and ammonia. And the sounds of some THING dragging its way into the room, only to start devouring one of the prisoners alive. You search desperately for a means of escape... and one of your fellow prisoners cuts your bonds. You might have hope after all...

The Lair of the Lamb is an adventure made for one of many hacks of the Goblin Laws of Gaming (GLOG), where levels are low, death is likely, and weirdness abounds. Here, you're all level 0 human sacrifices for a creature known only as the Lamb. One hit wounds or kills. You have no items. Your only saving grace is that there's 3-4 prisoners per player, so you have "extra lives." Can any of you escape... the Lair of the Lamb?

Description:

Blood Feud, a Mega Board Game is a highly thematic, team-based, strategic game that plays 4-32 players and is run by 1-2 storytellers who also interact and play in the Mega Board Game. The game is "Round-based" and each round is timed in real-time (such as the First Round being about 10 Minutes). As the game progresses, the rounds decrease in time making the game go faster and become even more thrilling!

As a player, you will play as one of the warring vampire clans such as Ventrue, Tremere, Gangrel, Toreador (and others) or perhaps you’ll choose to become one of the human factions fighting for their own desires, such as City Hall, the Mafia, or the Arcanum, with many more to choose from. Each has their own special powers, and unique background stories to help you get into character and play uniquely. Each faction also has unique goals in how they want to play the game asymmetrically which creates awesome replayability throughout sessions.
