DVG Pre-Orders for Global Domination, Kill Shot
Dan Verssen Games (DVG) is taking pre-orders for two new titles: Global Domination and Kill Shot.
Global Domination is a “near-future global warfare game” set in the year 2021. In this hypothetical future, environmental upheavals, resource depletion, escalating warfare, and world politics have taken the world past the point of no return. Technological advancement has stopped and the world’s armed forces use whatever weapons they can find from bygone eras to wage their battles. Each player represents one of six factions struggling for survival. The game features deck-building strategies and board-game-like decision making.
Kill Shot is a counter-terrorism party game. You can hunt a terrorist in 1 or 2 minutes and complete an entire game in less than 20 minutes. It is a speed card game designed for excitement. It will be going to the printer in the next few weeks regardless of pre-orders.
U-Boat Leader is on schedule to go to the printer in 3 weeks.
Printer proofs of Field Commander Napoleon have been received and production has started.
Modern Naval Battles and Expansion are also in production.

Dan Verssen Games Experiments with Releasing Rulebook Drafts
Dan Verssen Games is engaging in an interesting experiment for their upcoming Frontline game. As they develop the rulebook for the game, they’re posting information about it on their web site. Right now, you can see a partial outline of the rulebook in PDF form on their web site.
Your experience may vary relative to mine, but on my Windows PC I was unable to display the PDF file in either Firefox or Internet Explorer. On my Mac Mini with Safari, it displayed fine. It’s possible the problem had to do with the fact that I’m running Windows 7 Release Candidate rather than a production release of Vista or XP.
