In Central Europe, around 1670 A.D., the Plague that has raged for centuries has finally been overcome. The civilized world is revitalized. People are upgrading and expanding their simple wooden houses. Fields must be plowed, sowed, and harvested. People are living off millet gruel, bread, and vegetables. The famine of the previous years has also encouraged them to eat more meat (a habit that we continue to this day as our wealth is growing). This is the world players experience in Agricola. In the end, the wealthiest player wins.

“The Brothers Berserk arrived in Rumbleslam one day with no warning. The fighters wore thick leather coats as they stalked their way towards the ring jeering and insulting the crowd as they went. Entering the ring their opponents sized up the two brothers with a small chuckle. That chuckle would cost them dearly as the Brothers Berserk cast off their coats to reveal their twisted and warped arms. Claw snapped at the air with his wicked limb and smirked at Squirm whose own arm was writhing about with a will of its own. The chaotic siblings began to torture their opponents with a sadistic desire to inflict as much pain as possible before tossing their broken bodies over the ropes.”

If you expect a wrestler with a giant claw to be good at damaging people, and a wrestler with a tentacle for an arm to be good at grappling people, you are very astute and in tune with what we had in mind when designing these two. Well done you!

Basically, these guys are amazing. Their stats may not look like that much, but their special abilities are off the charts good. I'm not even going to spoil the surprise.

EDIT: I've been told to spoil the surprise, because we want people to buy them. So here goes:

Claw's Chaotic Claw Rope Ability has an ATT score of 2S+1, which can be permanently upgraded to 2G+1 with his Crowd Pleaser. That's already really good. But the Damage of the move is EQUAL TO THE ATT SCORE ROLLED.

I'm not even going to let that sink in before I tell you about Squirm's Tentacle Choke Hold Grapple Ability. It does Dazed, which is good. But you add the WEIGHT of the target wrestler to your GRP score, meaning the bigger they are, the harder they fall! And I'm not even going to make a new paragraph before telling you that his Crowd Pleaser does Knockdown to THREE wrestlers within THREE squares.

OH EM GEE

Oh and they also have a Tag Ability in Squirm throws Claw to any square in the ring, and it deals 4 Damage if used as Live Ammunition.

Two resin miniatures supplied unpainted and unassembled with unique character profile cards and clear acrylic bases. Note that clear acrylic bases may have a coloured peelable protective film. Miniatures supplied with square bases.

“No doubt you’ve heard of Relentless Dosh from their sellout arena tours, but this gifted duet are also incredibley skilled fighters! Using their own music as an introduction, the dynamic duo jump into the ring to greet their roaring fans. Dripping with charisma, the two fauns enjoy a popularity that is seldom matched in or out of the ring. When it comes to fighting, however, they are like night and day. Wonderkid uses his incredible presence to turn any potential nay-sayers into diehard fans whilst Nasty Goat focuses on brutal brawling. They claim to know the greatest attack in the world, but refuse to ever perform it. Instead they perform a tribute which is still a marvel to behold as they launch their opponent flying through the air.”

At 275K each, Relentless Dosh are actually the cheapest tag team currently on offer! Don't let that fool you though, they move quickly, and can bring on the hurt when needed.

Wonderkid is a face, and Nasty Goat a HEEL, so hope for the right reactions from the crowd! Both Crowd Pleasers give every friendly wrestler a +1AP counter though, which is a massive bonus to any team. And considering Wonderkid's Pile Drive To The Face Grapple Ability (longest move name yet?) has the Crowd Please special rule, that's going to be happening a lot! Nasty Goat doesn't fall behind though, as Quitter knocks down opponents and also picks them up!

Their Tag Ability is named Tribute To The Best Attack In The World (okay, that's definitely the longest move name), does a bunch of damage and shoves the opponent 8 squares! That means you can really control the action in the ring.

Honestly I don't know who these two aren't great choices for. They can hold their own in a fight, have a great Crowd Pleaser, and so many other useful skills. As a Forest Soul team they obviously pair well with the Timber Fists, giving them a whole bunch of tools to use, and the +1AP really helps the Amazonians to do their Turnbuckle Abilities and have AP left over to finish off (or throw out) their opponents.

Two resin miniatures supplied unpainted and unassembled with unique character profile cards and clear acrylic bases. Note that clear acrylic bases may have a coloured peelable protective film. Miniatures supplied with square bases.

Small World is a fun, zany, light-hearted civilization game! In Small World, players vie for conquest and control of a world that is simply too small to accommodate them all. Designed by Philippe Keyaerts as a fantasy follow-up to his award- winning VinciTM, Small World is inhabited by a zany cast of characters such as dwarves, wizards, amazons, giants, orcs, humans, and more who all use their troops to occupy territory and conquer adjacent lands in order to push the other races off the face of the earth. Picking the right combination from the 14 different fantasy races and 20 unique special powers, players rush to expand their empires—often at the expense of weaker neighbors. Yet they must also know when to push their own over-extended civilization into decline and ride a new one to victory! Learn more on the Days of Wonder website.
