Hey all — I've been working on a new game over the winter, and it finally drops today! This may be the biggest miniatures game I've done yet! wargamevault.com/product/352324/RACING-GLACIERS-The-Realtime-Game-of-Snow--Ice Here's the press release! Introducing RACING GLACIERS, the fast-pace, immersive game that allows players to build and race ice age glaciers in real-time! facebook.com/photo?fbid=10158692375794022&set=pcb.10158692376089022 In RACING GLACIERS, participants carefully construct their ice flows by accumulating snow and ice counters until they have amassed enough to begin moving their glacier across the continent under its own weight. The first player to reach the sea and calf off an iceberg wins! During the game, each "glacier wrangler" will have to deal with terrain, elevation, cornering, crevasses, seasonal melt and, of course, the dreaded Climate Change. RACING GLACIERS comes with 50 different types of snow counters, and special ice dice, with clear numbers on clear polymer. facebook.com/photo?fbid=10158692375869022&set=pcb.10158692376089022 RACING GLACIERS is designed for 2-4 players, and can be completed in 10 to 50,000 years. There is also a solo mode for those cold, lonely nights. Published by Squirrel Level Design, RACING GLACIERS was created by the same award-winning team that brought you "Bowling: The Miniatures Game" and "Iron Chef Cthuhlu." RACING GLACIERS drops April 1st.

""New Ice Age game drops today"" With commentary from the woolly mammoth Manfred (Manny), as voiced by Ray Romano… ;-)

Are you planning a supplement for the Little Ice Age (1300-1850)? Grelber

Does it come with special over priced dice?
Inch High Guy	01 Apr 2021 5:54 p.m. PST
Yes, they are clear and they call them dice cubes.

Looks a bit fast paced for me. Any chance of a limited edition storage box so I can pack it away without disturbing the pieces we have played? Maybe calling it "The ice-tray" could help sales…

For those that are asking, yes — the expansion will be the Climate Change add-on, where the last glacier standing is the winner. This one plays faster than you would expect. Also, we WILL be putting out an "ice tray" accessory to help organize the snow and ice miniatures.
