BEYOND THE WALL - EXT. TOUJOURS PLUS LOIN PIXIE GAMES

This supplement of just over 100 pages (color, hardcover) introduces a campaign principle, the "shared sandbox", which allows players to venture outside the village. As with the design of the village, the principle is based on collaborative creation of the campaign setting, from map layout to the development of major locations that will become exciting places of adventure.

It also offers a new type of booklet, the threat booklet. These booklets allow the game master to introduce one (or more) threats that loom over the campaign and develop over the course of the game sessions. Threats that players will have to confront directly at one point or another. There are four threat booklets available in this supplement. You'll also find additional game options, game material (spells, monsters, magic objects...) and even character customization traits. A must-have!
The illustration is by Jon Hodgson, who also designed the book covers and some of the interior illustrations.
Although Beyond the Wall's basic rules are similar to those of many other games based on the world's most popular role-playing game, they offer something they don't: tools for playing almost immediately and with virtually no preparation. Using the character and scenario booklets, a group of players with a game master should be able to embark on an adventure with absolutely no preparation, for a session of around three to five hours, from character creation to the celebration of a glorious success or the disillusionment of a bitter defeat.

In 152 pages (full color, hardcover), you'll find all the rules you need to play Beyond the Wall and other adventures. It also includes a list of spells divided into three categories - magic tricks, spells and rituals - as well as a complete bestiary. What's more, the six character booklets and two scenario booklets included allow you to jump straight into the adventure!
In Barcelona, you will take on the role of builders in 19th-century Barcelona who are working on the new expansion to the city. Your main goal is to construct buildings to accommodate the citizens who want to leave the old city, and in the process, you will also build streets, create tram lines, and build public services. You may even decide to explore "Modernisme", a new architectural and arts style that has been gaining popularity among the rich.

Barcelona is played over a variable number of rounds interrupted by three scoring phases before a final scoring phase. Every round, each player takes a single turn consisting of two or more actions, a building phase, and then preparation for their next turn. At the end of the game, the player with the most points wins.
