Den of Wolves: The MegaGame

It is the 27th Century. After a catastrophic attack on humanity, one battleship and a few civilian vessels must fight to survive, govern themselves and maintain order, as they flee from their pursuers. Den of Wolves is a game about difficult political, military and survival choices in a long-term crisis scenario. Players will take on the roles of starship captains, officers, and engineers, as well as politicians and military personnel. The game has a focus on managing resources, as well as various units and assets – however, talking and negotiating with other players will be crucial in order to achieve success. The game also seeks to represent political and military systems, and their decisions, and so players should expect some political simulation.

MegaGames are huge games with a bit of everything - role playing, combat mechanics, tech trees, bluffing, negotiation - but unlike most games they’re mostly driven by you, the player. The umpires, called the “Control Team,” will be on hand to answer questions and come up with rulings your creativity inspires. While you have agendas and goals laid out for you, megagames allow players to invent their own win conditions and pursue those as well.

Food will be provided in the form of pizza and sodas. The cost of food and drink will be included in the price of admission. You are welcome to bring your own food if you have dietary restrictions.

This year, unisex T-Shirts may be purchased with your ticket. Sizes are available in Adult Small, Medium, Large, XL and 2XL. Check out our website here to see this event's T-Shirt design.

As always, there will be an optional afterparty where we'll meet at a local pub to talk through the day's events over a pint and a meal (not included in price). Further details will be shared via email closer to the event date.
