Note: The following information was added after a note was received from a gamer who read the above news.
Official details are not yet available; however, one report indicates that the Genghis Khan card game is the same (in terms of mechanics and gameplay) as a game that was sold as Wortelboer during Spiel '99 in Essen, Germany (held last November). Wortelboer was based on a theme of rabbits, foxes and carrots. Players scored points with food pyramids on the table (3 carrots, 2 rabbits, 1 fox) or with carrot cards in hand. By playing cards in other players' ecosystems, a player would destroy their food pyramids. With the Genghis Khan theme, clearly the destruction will shift to other targets.
