Hex Games has just released J.I.N.G.O. – America’s Greatest Combat Squad!, a game inspired by the toy-based cartoons of the 80s.

It's 1985. After a landslide election, Ronald Reagan has just started his second term, and America feels awfully good about itself. Unfortunately, there’s a new threat out there, more dangerous than the USSR, Libya, and Iran combined—M.U.S.K.R.A.T, the Militant Union of Saboteurs, Killers, Renegades, And Terrorists. To combat this threat, Mr. Reagan has created an elite anti-terrorist force, the Justified Intelligence Network of Gifted Operatives. That’s right, J.I.N.G.O.! When extraordinary circumstances call for extraordinary operatives, J.I.N.G.O. is there to protect the U. S. of A. from terrorists, communists, or whatever else threatens this great land of ours.

J.I.N.G.O.! The world’s greatest heroes, for the world’s greatest nation!

According to creator Josh Burnett, J.I.N.G.O. is “a pastiche of the Reagan 80s filtered through the half-romantic, half-cynical memories of a child of that era. It's a spirit of optimism mixed with apathy. It's my country right or wrong. It's black-and-white morality, sometimes twisted to very ugly extremes. The goal of this game is to make fun of all that and have some fun blowing up lots of bad-guys at the same time.”

J.I.N.G.O. is designed for use with the QAGS system. It includes background on J.I.N.G.O. and M.U.S.K.R.A.T.; new rules for Specializations, Firepower, and Q Rating; vehicle rules; sample characters, vehicles, Gimmicks, and Weaknesses; 20 adventure ideas; and more!

J.I.N.G.O. – America’s Greatest Combat Squad!—as well as the QAGS rulebook, Leopard Women of Venus, Roller Girls Vs., and more—can be purchased in PDF form at www.hexgames.com and at the finer PDF sales sites for just $3.99.

For those who would like to sample QAGS before they buy it, the QAGS Qik Start Rules, which include everything you need to play J.I.N.G.O., are available for download at www.hexgames.com, absolutely free.

J.I.N.G.O. - America’s Greatest Combat Squad! is written by Joshua “General Victory” Burnett and illustrated by Leighton “Marshal Muskrat” Connor, with cover art by Joshua LH Burnett.

Hex Games has just released Leopard Women of Venus, a role-playing game of mind-melting pulp science-fiction adventure.

Venus is a hellish nightmare world of hideous monsters and savage barbarians, a world that can only be tamed by the Leopard Women. Armed with comet gun helmets, radium swords, and Flying Saurian mounts, the Leopard Women stand between the human settlers of Venus and total annihilation.

Leopard Women of Venus is inspired by the works of Fletcher Hanks. Hanks wrote and drew bizarre and memorable work in the earliest days of American comic books. His work is boldly drawn, frequently ugly, and strangely fascinating. Leopard Women of Venus gives you the tools you need to recreate the magic and lunacy of a Fletcher Hanks comic with your gaming group.

Leopard Women of Venus is designed for use with the QAGS Second Edition rules. It includes the history of Venus, including the story of how humans settled there and how it all went horribly wrong; an overview of the planet’s climate, terrain, and exotic locales; full descriptions of the human civilizations of Venus, from the caverns to the jungle; colorful monsters, like the Hypno-Shark, the Man-Eating Tree, and the Quivering Blood Gnats; and character creation guidelines, including rules for psychic powers. For the Game Master, there are sample PCs, a detailed guide to running the game, random tables, and a complete adventure, “Menace from Space!” It’s a combination that does everything but run the game for you.

Leopard Women of Venus–as well as the QAGS rulebook, American Artifacts 2, Fratboys Vs., and more--can be purchased in PDF form at www.hexgames.com and at the finer PDF sales sites for just $7.99.

For those who would like to sample QAGS before they buy it, the QAGS Qik Start Rules, which include everything you need to play Leopard Women of Venus, are available for download at www.hexgames.com, absolutely free.

Leopard Women of Venus is written by Leighton (Laser Ponies) Connor and Joshua (Funkadelic Frankenstein on the Mean Streets of Monstertown) Burnett and illustrated by Joshua LH Burnett, Leighton Connor, and Lindsay (A Friendly Game) Hornsby.

Brave the horrors of Venus. Have more fun!

Hex Games is proud to support Gamers for Humanity in their fundraising efforts for New Orleans. The first 100 people to donate $10 or more to Gamers for Humanity’s New Orleans trip at www.gamersforhumanity.org will receive a copy of the new gaming supplement American Artifacts 2. Your donations will make this year’s New Orleans trip possible, and Hex Games wants to thank you for helping out.

Gamers for Humanity will be taking their 4^th annual New Orleans Work Trip from Sunday March 13^th through Saturday March 19^th, 2011. Help them lift up a city that has been laid low many times. New Orleans is more than just Mardi Gras; New Orleans is music and hospitality and relaxation and neighborhoods and caring and welcoming and warm weather, and it’s also hurricanes and flooding and oil spills. New Orleans and its people need your help. Gamers for Humanity needs your help.

If you join the trip to New Orleans you'll be helping a city full of wonderful people, and having fun along the way. If the trip isn't for you, you can donate to assist the volunteers with travel and housing funds. Most of the volunteers are like you--they want to help, but aren't swimming in vast piles of cash. And remember, once you donate $10 or more, you will receive your PDF copy of American Artifacts 2.

American Artifacts 2 gives you 20 magical items uniquely suited to the New World. Some are objects from American history, like Crispus Attucks's musket ball, or from pop culture, like Zuzu's petals. Some were created by wizards who act like scientists, and some by scientists who act like wizards; Nikola Tesla's ray gun, William Faulkner's pocket watch, and Benjamin Franklin's automaton all blur the line between magic and science.

All 20 artifacts are suitable for use in a wide variety of games. Each entry includes a description of the artifact, background information, and game mechanics. The artifacts range from the charming, like Mark Twain's cigar box, to the cosmically powerful, like the Shard of the True Plane. A detailed timeline is also included, that offers a clear overview of the occult history of America. And don’t worry, you don't need to have read the original American Artifacts to use this book.
