November 7, 2026 Crisis, near Antwerp – a well-known event at a new venue.
Thank you for the wonderful SPIEL 2026. It was a blast. Meeting you all, laughing with you, talking shop, and having so many fantastic conversations – it was a great pleasure for us.
We’re looking forward to both conventions – and to seeing you all again!
With full steam ahead, we’re heading toward SPIEL 2026 with a host of new products.
You’ll find us in Hall 1, Booth 1C215. From the Messe Süd entrance, take the second left. Just like last year, we’re right next to Golden Demon—only on the other side.
Yes, we have another pre-order promotion for you. See below for details!

With our trade show season just around the corner, we’ve pulled out all the stops once again and are excited to present a few great new products:
Two characters are coming to *Ascending Fate*: Léon Kurasawa for the Complex and Marcán for the An Dan.
We have so many characters now that we really need some new protective sleeves. Here they are—the perfect sleeves.
Some of you may already know him from “Talk Like a Pirate Day,” but we’re featuring him again—the one and only: Cal C. Calman
Then the captain reached into his bag of tricks and brought out the Flying Borsti out of thin air! It will be available exclusively in our shop through the end of December and also at trade shows.
Finally, we have one more event card decksfor Ironball for you. Ironball is a kind of dodgeball and a fun, entertaining scenario for Freebooter’s Fate. Be sure to give it a try. You can find the rules and event card updates in our download section.
Here are our upcoming trade show appearances:
09.-11.10.2026 POLARIS, Hamburg—this is our first “official” time participating. Of course, we’ll be there together with Tabletop Nord !
22.10.-25.10.2026 SPIEL 2026, Essen—absolutely amazing: 4 days of nonstop gaming! Hall 1, Booth 1C 215—right next to the Golden Demon. This time on the other side ;-).
We are really looking forward to your visit and to some exciting trade shows!
Who better to embody this year’s ‘Talk Like a Pirate Day’ than Cal C. Calman? That’s right, no one else!
Cal may be a right pain with his constant chattering and all that hand-waving… but it really gets on his opponents’ nerves, doesn’t it? After all, we’re used to it, aren’t we?
Available from 19 September in our shop!
A little preview of October:
