Pizza Box Football (American Football) Picture For Pizza Box Football (American Football) from On The Line Game Company Price: £17.99
RRP: £20.99

Pizza Box Football is shaped like a pizza box... and it opens up into a head-to-head football strategy game designed to offer all the intensity of real football in every play. Players unfold the game board (the field) and lay it inside the unfolded pizza box. The cards guide the players as they play and show the players which dice to roll.

Players must apply football strategy in order to win (when to run, when to short pass, when to long pass and when to try to fool the other team). The Advanced Game (sold separately) extends the strategy by offering 3 additional plays for the offense (draw, screen pass and play-action) and 3 additional plays for the defense (run blitz, route jump and QB blitz).

    Rugby World Board Game Picture For Rugby World Board Game from Ghenos Games Price: £27.99
    RRP: £34.99

    Rugby World is the latest Ghenos Games' board game, conceived to introduce you to this, the most fascinating of sports games. The game consists of 15 players grounding the ball over the goal line at the opponent's end of the field. The trick, however, is that in advancing the players can only pass the ball backwards! The 15 defending players can either make a tackle, to prevent their opponents from advancing, or try to capture the ball.

    In true Ghenos Games style, the level of simulation is extremely high, allowing you to experience the scrum, ruck and lineout, and to run, kick, pass and tackle in an attempt to score tries and drop kicks.

    Choose to play for one of the 16 leading national teams, in your very own Rugby World Cup. Every team comes with special cards featuring names and characteristics from its Rugby tradition.

    Rugby enthusiasts will enjoy the thrill of the leading international matches that this game reproduces, while beginners will discover a whole new world, learning to share in the famous motto that states that rugby "is a game for gentlemen in all classes, but for no bad sportsman in any class".

    Winners Circle Board Game Picture For Winners Circle Board Game from Face 2 Face Games Price: £19.99
    RRP: £22.99

    THEY'RE AT THE POST ... As the crowd tenses with anticipation one can only wonder what's going on in the minds of these seven men and their mounts, these 'equines for the ages' who will soon settle that long asked question 'Who's the greatest of all time'?"…And ... THEY'RE OFF!

    In Winner’s Circle you are right in the middle of a classic day of racing. Which horse is the favorite? Does the long-shot have a real chance? How high are the betting ratios? Which bet promises the highest profit? Once the field is announced you must place your bets. You then take turns rolling the special die and moving the horse of your choice. Will you advance the horse you are backing or impede those horses backed by the other players? While having multiple players back the same horse improves its odds of winning it also lowers the payouts, and there are still no guarantees of victory. At the end of the running the best bets payoff, and after 3 races the player with the most winnings is triumphant.

    World Cup Football Board Game Picture For World Cup Football Board Game from Games For The World Price: £29.99
    RRP: £29.99

    THE WORLD CUP GAME recreates the fascination and excitement of the Football World Cup tournament. Can you guide one of the European teams to victory after crossing thousands of miles of ocean to Uruguay in 1930? Or, can you repeat the triumph of Brazil in the Far East in 2002?

    This is the boldest concept for a World Cup board game ever devised. You can play the very first World Cup tournament which took place back in 1930, or you can play the more recent World Cup tournament in 2002.

    Players will control the destinies of the national teams, taking them through the group stages into the knock-out stages and hopefully to the greatest prize itself—The World Cup!

    THE WORLD CUP GAME has a subtle mix of luck and skill. Through the play of cards each player will score goals, press attacks and shore up defences; but fouls, offsides and penalties can thwart your strategy. All matches in each round are resolved simultaneously, so a complete World Cup tournament can be played from 1 to 3 hours.

    World Cup Football Board Game Expansion 3: 1950, 1986, 1990 and Euro 2008 Price: £9.99
    RRP: £9.99

    Expansion set 3: Covers the 1950, 1986 & 1990 World Cup tournaments and the bonus Euro 2008 game.

    The components are:-

  • 3 boards: Each board is double-sided A3 and matt laminated. They have one fold so that they fit neatly into your World Cup Game box.
    • The first board has the complete 1950 World Cup held in Brazil; a unique World Cup in which 13 teams in unequal groups battle for a top place in their group so that they can compete in the 'Final Pool'. No Final, no 3rd place, it's decided on a group system!! The reverse side of Board 1 is the Knock-out stages of the 1986 and 1990.
    • Board 2 has the first 4 groups of 1986 on one side and 1990 on the other.
    • Board 3 has groups E and F from both the 1986 and 1990 World Cup. This side of the board is used in conjunction with the relevant side of Board 2. The reverse side of Board 3 is the Euro2008 group stage. Despite each team being ranked in advance of the tournament, the players have the option to re-rank the teams themselves.
  • A single A4 sheet of rules to cover these particular World Cup tournaments where they differ from the main rules
  • 3 double-sided score sheets, one for 1950 and Euro2008; one for 1986 and one for 1990.

    In 1950 it was fortunate, perhaps that the final match to be played was between the two contenders, the highly fancied home nation, Brazil and their local rivals Uruguay. Uruguay upset the home fans by beating Brazil 2-1 to take their 2nd title.

    1986 held in Mexico and 1990 in Italy were two of three tournaments whereby 4 of the third place teams progressed to the 2nd round. It was a complex mechanism to decide which teams played against each other in the Round of 16 in order to keep teams apart for the rest of the tournament who had played in the same group. Both Finals were contested by West Germany and Argentina - one win each!

    The Euro 2008 bonus game will allow players to choose their own rankings. There will be guidelines with a ranking system in place. It will be interesting to see how accurate the guideline rankings are by the time we get to the final on 29 June 2008!
