Bootleggers
DD Poker
It´s the roaring 20´s and prohibition is in full swing in America. The business of illegal alcohol is growing bigger and getting more dangerous by the day. Illegal stills dot the countryside and (not so) secret speakeasies exist in every major city.
In Bootleggers, you take the role of a boss, making a name for yourself in the trade of illegal alcohol or “hooch”. By muscling in on competition, paying off local authorities, and shipping trucks of hooch, your goal is to make more money than your competition by using any and all means available.
 
Whether you are playing poker tournaments with a small group of friends, at a nearby card room, or in Las Vegas or preparing for the grand-daddy of them all, the World Series of Poker®, DD Tournament Poker is for you!
DD Tournament Poker lets you learn to play poker without losing money, track your performance over time and play an entire tournament in 15 minutes. Thousands of computer opponents adapt to your style of play and with 3 levels of difficulty, DD Poker is great for the seasoned tournament player as well as the beginner!
Sid Meier's Pirates: The Boardgame
Conquest of the Empire
Take the role of a pirate captain in the 17th Century Caribbean. The boardgame will remain true to the theme and goals of the PC game, while offering players a uniquely competitive, tabletop experience. Players can become the most famous (or infamous) pirate captain of the day. Amass fame and fortune on the Spanish Main by assembling powerful crews, raiding shipping lanes and plundering towns. The game will feature “Euro style” mechanics, the rich pirate theme, breath-taking art by Paul Niemeyer and Jeff Menges, and stunning plastic miniatures of pirates, treasure, and ships.
 
It is the 2nd century AD and the 200 year Pax Romana of Augustus Caesar has come to an end. With the death of the Philosopher-Scholar Emperor Marcus Aurelius, the Roman Empire is without a competent leader. Disorder reigns and civil war looms. Mars will be pleased. It is a time for war. It is a time for Conquest of the Empire! Eagle Games revisits the Larry Harris classic (originally released in Milton Bradley’s Gamemaster series). This new edition features 400 beautiful sculpted, historically accurate miniatures, stunning artwork by Paul Niemayer and contains rules for the original game with updated combat rules and a whole new game system that introduces elements of diplomacy and influence. Do you have what it takes to become the next Emperor of Rome?
