Board Game Publisher: Pegasus Spiele
German publisher Pegasus Spiele has unveiled the first half of its 2011 line-up and in keeping with recent tradition much of its product line will be familiar to those who follow the U.S. market as the games are German editions of titles previously released (or already announced) in English. Those games are:

From Z-Man Games:
• Korsaren der Karibik (Merchants & Marauders), from Christian Marcussen and Kasper Aagaard (Apr. 2011)
• Pocket Battles: Kelten vs. Römer, from Paolo Mori and Francesco Sirocchi (Jan. 2011)
• Pocket Battles: Orks vs. Elfen, from the same pair as above (Mar. 2011)
• Onirim, from Shadi Torbey, packaged in a metal box (May 2011)

From Alderac Entertainment Group:
• Thunderstone: Zorn der Elemente, from Mike Elliott (Jan. 2011)
• Thunderstone: Die Wächter von Doomgate, from Mike Elliott (Mar. 2011)

As for games originating from Pegasus, the publisher does have a few such titles:

• Mondo, from Michael Schacht – for more on this game, check out Schacht's Mondo designer diary here on BGG News. (Mar. 2011)
• Duckomenta Memo – a basic memory game featuring artwork from the "Die Duckomenta" exhibit at Roemer- und Pelizaeus-Museum in Hildesheim, Germany. If you've ever wondered what Raphael's "Sistine Madonna" would look like with ducks for angels, now's your chance. (Mar. 2011)
• Quest: Zeit der Helden – Der dunkle Kult, from Alexander Dotor. This is the first large expansion for Quest: Zeit der Helden – Angriff der Orks, a Descent-style game with the Questmaster facing off against heroes controlled by the other players, which debuted in 2010 and is forthcoming from Z-Man Games. Four new heroes are introduced in this expansion, along with (to be fair) four demonic arch-villains. (Mar. 2011)
• Strasbourg, from Stefan Feld. In this "easy to learn" strategy game, players try to place family members in the powerful craft guilds of 15th century Strasbourg, using their influence to win them positions as apprentices, journeymen or even masters. All it takes is money, money and influence – money, influence and the ability to woo the nobility and fend off the church, all in a quest to end up with a better reputation than everyone else.
