UK Games Expo is an awesome place to learn new games. Fantasy Flight Games, for example, are delving into Journeys In Middle-earth with some new players and showing them what the game is all about.

With the amount of time that you have here at the convention to get stuck into a big adventure game like this, it’s awesome to see people already delving in.

We got to chat with the lovely people behind 7TV, Crooked Dice, and the new Pulp setting for the game which was done in conjunction with a team from Edge Hill University!

7Tv is one of those games that lets you be incredibly inventive and explore all different styles of scenario on the tabletop. It’s well worth checking them out for more details on the game!

We mentioned before how a lot of the focus of UK Games Expo surrounds delving in to try new games but there’s also a mix between that and getting into games you really, really know.

I mean, check out the awesomely big game of Ticket To Ride! A few folks, for example, are diving into their tournaments this weekend and playing through masses of different card games.

We were able to get the full lowdown on just how the new card game from CMON works, God Of War. As someone who loves the video game we’ve been very excited to learn how this one plays.

It sounds like they have got a good set of mechanics for cooperative play set up and there are even some great solitaire rules included too for those who want the real experience of playing Kratos on his journey.

Warren got a chance to sit down and play with some of the new Contrast Paints that are going to be hitting the market soon from Games Workshop.

As Warren has a play around with the paints he talks about their pros and cons and exactly how he might use them as he gets stuck into lots more painting projects.

We got talking to the awesome Jaro from Phalanx Games about their awesome line-up of games. Some of these are going to Kickstarter soon like Divided Europe and Road To Moscow but others are ready to hit tabletops now.
