From the Nexus Club, it was Takács György (Kadmon) appeared with his set of games, which were typically board games played with miniature figures. During the event he walked from one table to the next, explaining the rules for the interested visitors.

The DreadBall Ed2 game was relatively new for most participants. After trying it out, there was a player who asked me to bring the game next time, so maybe we can try the league rules in the near future.

The Massive Darkness game was also popular. Those who previously knew the rules of Zombicide could start the game in seconds, but it didn't take long even for others to learn the basics.

The DreadBall Ed2 board game for the games has been sent by Mantic Games for demonstration games.
