Old School Orcs Up On Kickstarter

The classic ‘Western’ Orc in loose fitting rudimentary clothing and a hood (it could be disguising hidden chainmail) is a staple of fantasy.

So, I am pleased to offer you a new range of 20 figures which with the separate shields and in many cases weapons, should give you plenty of that Satanic Panic hallmark, variety. If you look at my other ranges, you can use so many other weapons and shields that a totally unique army is a realistic possibility.

So, here are the 20 models. I’ve left weapons and standards off the command figures to allow you to really go to town and not be stuck with a single banner design.

Advantage/Disadvantage Dice Up On Kickstarter

I want to introduce a new method of rolling for advantage or disadvantage. Rolling two different dice is fun. However, rolling this new type of dice brings an exciting new element to the mix. Seeing that second internal dice break through the swirling glitter is magical.

Wasteland and Post-Apocalyptic Minis Up On Kickstarter

My name is Aniello Rivieccio , but no one call me Aniello, everybody call me just “Nello”. I am a digital artist with a past in the old school made of putty, wire and wooden tools to carve and modelling.  I have been a professional modeller for a lifetime,  achieving awards all over the world in the most notorius and important competitions , expecially in the historical military miniatures. The two important awards that still make me proud even today are the MFCA ( miniature figure collectors of north America )  Grand Master and the World Master Award from the international miniatures world committee . Despite I am considered almost only an historical’s miniatures artist , I always loved the fantasy world. This love, brought to life this COMMAND MINIATURES project, that I really hope with all my heart will fulfill the commitment. My efforts were made keeping in mind only to enjoy all of you.

Whatever will be the result of this campaign …I will always THANK YOU SO MUCH

Shadowdark RPG allows players of all ages and backgrounds to create a back-to-the-future moment for tabletop roleplay. Old-school gamers will enjoy a gritty dark adventure akin to the gaming of their youth, while newer gamers will love the retro feel and modern features that streamline the gaming process.

“This has been a lifelong dream of mine, and now it’s coming true,” said Kelsey Dionne. “I wanted to capture that moment that is the magic of when you fall in love with gaming. You are young and falling into a world where you can do anything, and being the hero of your own story is just everything. Here it is. Shadowdark is that game.”

The game features familiar elements of classic fantasy gaming but is not a retro-clone. A lot of new game design ideas have emerged in the last 50 years, and Shadowdark RPG brings together the best concepts into a nostalgic-but-new adventuring system. Torchlight only lasts for one hour of real-time gameplay, which forces characters to make decisions quickly. Darkness is dangerous, and total darkness means no dark vision, making it harder to navigate the game.

Other features of the game include the four core classes, a d20-based, roll-high system, treasure grants XP, and tracking it is simple. The game also features roll-to-cast spells, always-on initiative, and low hit points for fast and deadly combat. Shadowdark RPG features a black, digest-sized hardcover with 330 pages of full rules for characters, gameplay, and GMing, 239 classic monsters, 85 iconic spells, and 97 mighty magic items. There are also dozens of robust roll tables for just about everything, handy reference charts on the inside covers, and spectacular black-and-white art.

The game’s Kickstarter campaign also includes a premium version of the game, bound in basilisk skin (it’s actually dark-green leatherette — no basilisks were harmed), with a silver-foil imprint of Mordanticus the Flayed, the greatest enemy of The Ten-Eyed Oracle.

Shadowdark RPG has received praise from industry experts, including New York Times-bestselling author and award-winning game designer Matt Forbeck, who said, “Feels just like the ideal version of a game I was playing forty years ago, but forty years better.” Designer of QELONG & consultant on DUNGEONS & DRAGONS 5e, Kenneth Hite, also praised the game, saying, “With beautifully creepy old-school art and plenty of wonderful random tables, SHADOWDARK is one hell of a tasty cookie.”

For those who want to try the game out before pledging, a free quickstart kit is available for download. Shadowdark RPG is a fantasy adventure game that is both classic and modern, allowing players to delve into buried ruins, lost cities, spider-infested forests, and fearsome dragon lairs in search of gold and glory. The Shadowdark is any place where danger and darkness hold sway, daring fortune seekers to tempt their fates. Whether you’re a seasoned veteran or a newcomer to tabletop gaming, Shadowdark RPG promises to deliver a thrilling and immersive experience.

The first five books in the series are now available in paperback, with books six and seven to be published in May. The series will continue to be published throughout 2023 and 2024, with definitive editions that include additional background material and expansions contributed by the Lone Wolf fan community.

Gamebooks are interactive novels where readers take on the role of the hero and are given choices that affect the outcome of the adventure. Each book can be played many times, and new paths can be discovered. The Lone Wolf gamebooks take place in the same fantasy world, Magnamund, and each book provides a piece to an overall epic saga. With the recent revival in popularity of fantasy roleplaying games such as Dungeons & Dragons, a new generation is discovering the series, including the children of the original readers.

Ben Dever, who is co-authoring the final book, The Light of the Kai, with Vincent Lazzari, has been working hard to continue his father’s legacy. Although he initially had no personal interest in the Lone Wolf books or fantasy gaming, he left his work as a music event director to immerse himself in the world of Lone Wolf and its community of fans. The series is published by Holmgard Press, and the first five books are available now in paperback at all good bookshops and online booksellers.

The campaign got off to an incredible start, with Forsaken Isles funding on day one in just 30 minutes. Since then, the project has continued to exceed expectations, with 19 stretch goals already unlocked, including the addition of a brand new character, The Merchant. The team behind Set a Watch is now hard at work on another new character, The Halfling Cavalry, which backers can help unlock by following the campaign on Instagram.

Set a Watch: Forsaken Isles is a standalone expansion to the popular cooperative adventure puzzle game Set a Watch. With a new Doom mechanic and a new “short game” mode, Forsaken Isles offers players 60-90 minutes of challenging gameplay. The expansion is fully compatible with the original game, allowing players to mix and match creatures, locations, and characters from any game in the Set a Watch series.

Set a Watch: Doomed Run, on the other hand, is the ultimate Set a Watch experience. Combining content from the entire series with plenty of new material, Doomed Run takes players on a thrilling campaign through seven different realms, as they attempt to stop a mysterious cult from resurrecting the Unhallowed. Along the way, players will complete side quests to unlock new adventurers and their mythic items, but be warned: other adventurers will permanently perish until you attempt a new doomed run.

The Set a Watch: Forsaken Isles & Doomed Run Kickstarter campaign has been a huge success, thanks in part to the dedication of the game’s passionate fanbase.

“March of the Machine” is the culmination of more than a decade of Phyrexian machinations, which will fundamentally change the Multiverse. The Phyrexians have everything they need to complete their great work, including an army the likes of which no plane has ever seen. However, unexpected allies have now joined the heroes’ fight against the Phyrexian onslaught.

Players can stand with the greatest heroes of Magic from virtually every plane we’ve visited in the Multiverse, including Chandra, Hope’s Beacon, Yargle, Multani, Ghalta and Mavren, Thalia and the Gitrog Monster. The Phyrexians have opened portals in every corner of the Multiverse, and even seemingly innocuous places such as Bloodfell Caves and Dismal Backwater are not safe.

“March of the Machine” will have five Commander decks, and there will be ten different Planechase cards in each of them. The set will be available in various booster packs, including Set Boosters, Draft Boosters, Collector Boosters, Bundle, Prerelease Packs, and Jumpstart Boosters.

In addition, a small set called “March of the Machine: The Aftermath” will focus on the story, showing what happens after the events of “March of the Machine.” This is a set for those invested in the story, the characters, and what comes next. “March of the Machine: The Aftermath” is a set of 50 new Standard-legal cards sold in five-card boosters.

The Phyrexian invasion is coming, and no corner of the Multiverse is safe. “March of the Machine” will hit stores worldwide on April 21, 2023. Players can preorder the set online at Amazon and at their local game stores.

The new cards offer more tools to support the playstyle of ceremonial magic, including a new alteration spell, ready spell, and addition to the “Chant” arsenal. The Corpse of Viros is set to be a monumental new set, with more previews of the expansion to come.

More undead horrors are coming to tabletops in Warcry. Get a look at some of the new vampire miniatures that will be in the new box set, coming to pre-order this weekend.

From the article:

Soulblight vampires spend every night of their immortal lives with a persistent hunger for blood gnawing away at them. Some, like the Askurgan Trueblades, do their best to restrain this rapacious hunger, going so far as to entomb themselves with terrified mortals to prove they can go a whole night without so much as a nibble.*

These ascetic fellows are a touch unusual compared to the many other types of vampire in the Mortal Realms, who run the gamut from nightmare stalkers to debauched aristocrats who rule whole kingdoms. With this new gang of pointy-toothed pariahs on the way, we’re taking the opportunity to compare them to other famous vamps.

From the article:

Things are about to get much bloodier in the Gnarlwood. The next Warcry expansion hits pre-order this Saturday, and it brings an ascetic sect of beast-slaying vampire monks into conflict with a baying horde of Khornate murder-cultists. 

But that’s not it for Warcry goodies this week – two other warbands are getting their first standalone release. Make way for the silent-but-deadly Hunters of Huanchi and the idolatrous Jade Obelisk.

From the article:

Bloodhunt is the next boxed expansion for Warcry. It’s a decidedly gory affair as the Askurgan Trueblades face off against the Claws of Karanak to see who can spill the most blood.

Most Soulblight Vampires put on an air of nobility, ruling as the aristocracy of the night and indulging their ravenous appetite for mortal blood. The Askurgan Trueblades reject this. They are ascetics, an austere order of warrior monks who practise self-denial and live in seclusion in the mountains of Ghur.
