October 23, 2007: Y2K Gets A Packaging Upgrade

I've never liked Illuminati Y2K's packaging -- the blister-on-card works perfectly for miniatures, but for a card game, it left much to be desired.

This year's reprint, however, got an upgrade. Now Y2K is in a nifty tuckbox, just like its little brother Bavarian Fire Drill.

Yeah, imagining the Illuminati line as a family, with Illuminati: Crime Lords as the "cousin from Jersey," is more disturbing than it really should be. Guess I need to calibrate the Orbital Mind Control Satellite.

Warehouse 23 News: The Endginning

They dropped the bomb, the virus spread, the zombies ate everyone, aliens invaded, the moon exploded, the mimes took over. Or something equally obnoxious happened. Either way, now that The World is dead, things are much more interesting. Now you just need a book like Hero System: Post-Apocalyptic Hero to point out all the sights worth seeing.
