Sometimes games don’t make it to the Carnage staff in time to be included in the printed book that’s sent out to everyone on our mailing list. When that happens, those games come here to the addendum page. These are the latecomers and the last minute switch-ups, but don’t let that bias your opinion. They’re still gosh darn good gaming.

Buffalo: A card game of quick wits and zany combinations, buffalo™ asks you to name-drop faster than your friends, collect the most cards, and win! How fast can you name a vain artist? How about a glasses-wearing heartthrob? Don’t be surprised if you find yourself surrounded by curious players eager to name an annoying conqueror or perky religious figure! Buffalo is a 20 minute party game for adults and families (2-8 players ages 14 and up), and players are encouraged to join in the middle of a game!
Awkward Moment: Awkward Moment™ puts 3-8 players in terrifically awkward social situations! Players gather a hand of Reactions and together face hysterical, embarrassing, or stressful events. How Awkward! Taking turns as “the Decider,” players use Decider Card to determine the basis for a winning Reaction. Players try impress the Decider by submitting the best response from their hand of cards.
ZOMBIEPOX! : ZOMBIEPOX™ has reached your town and turned two people into full-blown zombies! ZOMBIEPOX spreads as the zombies wander through town biting people! Help the humans escape the wrath of the flesh-eating zombies by vaccinating them against ZOMBIEPOX. Cure those in the most dire situations and protect the vulnerable who cannot be immunized. We don’t want zombie babies! Win the game if the deadly ZOMBIEPOX can no longer spread. Lose the game if too many people become full-blown zombies.

C4 Cards Against Humanity (GM: Rick Salamin) Unlike most of the party games you’ve played before, Cards Against Humanity is at times despicable and awkward.

Players take turns choosing the best answer from the cards they have for the presented question. This game is for adults 18 years and older only. (4-8 Players) (Saturday 11p-? Overnite)
C5 Mini-Masters: M13 (GM: Rick Salamin) The event is 4 rounds long. Each player gets 1 booster and 15 land (3 of each type) to shuffle together for Round 1. Win your round and you get another pack to add to your card pool to build a 40-card minimum deck (with any additional land they may need). Prizes are the packs you win each round. (4-24Players) (Sunday 10a-4p)

R120 Fate of the Norns: Ragnarok (GM: Andrew Valkauskas)
Everything has a beginning, and the Norns dictate that what has a beginning will have an end. Welcome to the beginning of the end! The age of patience, reason, and restraint has been overshadowed by an age of rage, vengeance, and destruction. Old grievances have resurfaced and reparations come in blood, rivers of blood! Welcome to the rune based rune-based Viking RPG called Fate of the Norns: Ragnarok. The stories are based on the ancient Viking sagas, and the mythology is legendary! Players take on the roles of heroic personas that have a key role to play during the final ages of Ragnarok. They may choose from 7 archetypes and will use the Runic Game System (RGS) to determine their ultimate success or failure. Using a set of rune stones, the players will cast intricate spells and deal devastating blows in a visceral and tactical combat system. They will partake in telling the tale of mighty heroes fighting in the dark age for a cause greater than their own mortality. And should they die a valorous death in battle, Valkyries will take them to the heavens to be reborn as mighty Einherjar or Sons of Muspelâ—and they will now fight alongside the Gods and the Jotuns at Ragnarok!
