Rise Of Moloch & Zombicide: Green Horde Launch From CMON
April 27, 2018 by dracs
CMON have a pair of new board games that they are releasing today; Rise of Moloch, the latest instalment in the World of Smog, and Zombicide: Green Horde, bringing a tide of orc zombies.
Rise Of Moloch
Rise of Moloch takes place in the steampunk World of Smog. Players take on the role of the Gentlemen of the Unicorn Club, fighting to protect the queen.
However, one player will be taking on the role of Nemesis, controlling the Cult of Moloch in an attempt to gain Moloch stones and bring destroy London.
The World of Smog is one I am always keen to explore and this focus of one versus many gameplay is one I find very appealing, as well as the way the story of the game unfolds over a series of chapters.
Zombicide: Green Horde
Zombicide: Green Horde is a stand-alone sequel to Zombicide: Black Plague, once again taking the popular board game series to a dark, fantasy setting.
The game sees the survivors of the zombie plague face the new threat of a tide of orc zombies, pouring across the border to pillage and devour.
Orc zombies hit a lot harder than their undead human counterparts, making them a much tougher challenge to face.
Which of these two board games catches your eye the most?

Zombicide is so much fun can’t wait to get my hands on green tide
Does this mean I should be expecting my Green Horde KS pledge soon?
How on earth would the Beasts of War team know when you specifically are getting your pledge? Or when anyone else waiting will? Wrong people and place to ask this question (although I do understand the frustrations with waiting on any kickstarter pledge).
Industry insider knowledge, chance mention from the manufacturer, ear of CMON?
Yes, it’s a long shot, but who knows?
Ok, Ok, I must admit I would love to know this myself 🙂
They have sent the core boxes to at least some of the backers already.
I got one a few weeks ago, but I don’t know when the rest of the pledge is planned.
Rise of Moloch is quite the gem. Gameplay seems to work out quite well. While not every scenario is perfectly balanced, solid tactics can give either side the win. Highly recommended if you like this sort of game.
Some great looking figure’s their.
Played my first game of Z:GH recently. Had a lot of fun but it’s tougher than the previous versions. The Zombie Orcs deal a lot more damage and your guys go down quickly if you’re not wary.
I got my green hordes wave 1 core game box before easter. Great game, great minis. If a tad on the small side, like all Cmon minis.
Of course, all the really good stuff is in wave 2…
