Godzilla fans will soon be able to cause their own miniature destruction when veteran game designer Richard Berg unveils his brand-new kaiju board game. The game,which is presently in the early stages of development, will feature some Toho's famous giant monsters including Godzilla, Rodan, King Ghidorah, and Gigan. The plan for this new game is for it to be "non-collectible", which means all the required figures and game pieces will come in one box. That, however, doesn't rule out the possibility of expansion sets and new monsters in the future.

At this time Berg is conducting "play-test sessions" and adjusting the rules for better game play.

Here is a description of how the game will work from i09.com:

The mechanics are intended to be relatively simple and fast moving. Players split a set number of action points per turn between their monsters and military units. Monsters collect victory points by trashing buildings, stomping tanks and beating each other up with fists, nuclear breath, claws and other attacks. Monster-on-monster combat involves playing a series of attack cards that define how many dice you roll. Everyone rolls a pile of dice and figures out how many hits they've scored.

Look for this one to be released in 2009...........awsome!
