Hello follower, Adventurers and Merchants!
It has been a tough month, but we can really say we are happy with the final result.
This is our first real effort to make some Undeads for our universe and miniature line.
Undead are pretty common in every game who involve minis, so we really hope you can find a cool use for them!
As you can see, we started with a Skeletal faction, the Fallen Ones from Oldburg: the first district of the City-State of Torm.
We included some lore aswell, not perfect English of course, but you can figure out the story behind these cursed skeletons ^^
Oldburg Fallen Ones - Lore
6 Oldburg Fallen Ones (modular)
Ancient soldiers who betrayed their lost kingdom and were condemned to undeath, turned into walking skeletons for eternity. They are now bound to follow their undead general and the evil Lich Skulkator, forever.
During the siege of the City-State of Torm, these soldiers were guarding the district of Oldburg. Deceived by the evil warlock Skulkator, they betrayed the Fighter's Guild and Dragonguard defense plan by opening one of the three great gates to the forces of the Tyrant-God Tialevor, letting the Ashen Inquisitors and their divine leader in.
3 Nightmare Riders (modular)
Even Oldburg's trusty steeds took part in the curse. These mighty horses serve as mounts for the army of the dead.
Skulkator the Lich (modular)
During its life, Skulkator was the powerful warlock of the City-State of Torm. By betraying his people he signed an oath with Tialevor, the Tyrant-God. Now he haunts the ruins of the city as Lich commanding with Harguul an immortal army of Fallen Ones.
Harguul Blade of the Roses (modular)
General of the soldiers of Oldburg, in the great city-state of Torm. His prowess and skill became even greater following his transformation into a Fallen One. (coming with skeletal head or closed helmet).
Harguul on Azekiel (Standalone beast or Saddled version, rider is modular)
Azekiel the demonic, is General Harguul's skeletal warhorse. His hair, generated by cursed evanescent flames, illuminates the gloomy battlefield like the light of the moon.
Eliza (Fantasy Pinup)
The beautiful bride of Harguul the general, even if not taking part in the betrayal of the warlock Skulkator, was partially pierced by the curse of Oldburg, turning her into a walking corpse, half lady and half skeleton.
Oldburg Mausoleum (comes in part with separated door option)
The miasma carried by Skulkator to all of Oldburg even hit the cemetery, condemning even those who rested in the cryptic mausoleums. Approaching these small structures often causes a hungry skeleton to awaken
7600 Goal TOTALLY CRUSHED!
Our powerlevel is almost at 8000! Prince Vegeta would be (almost) proud.
We can't thank you enough to be supporting us friends! As promised, we are now testprinting the all modular Shortsword Tale new 3 Gnome Heroes. They will be ready for the first days of the next month!
February will be a sort of double release which includes the Oldburg Fallen Ones, and the full Shortsword Tale (3 Greatgoblins and 3 Gnome Heroes).
SHORTSWORD TALE LORE
The brave leader Mina the Barbarian, the witty sharp-tongued Tinto the Bard, and grumpy Warlock Janto, are three close-knit brothers of the Gnomic race who roam the wilderness in search of treasure and fame. During their first adventure together they will find themselves exploring the Greatgoblin Mountains. This infamous species of big, smelly furry goblins can't wait to cook their favorite dish: mountain herb gnome skewer.
Will this group of little might heroes be able to defeat the smelly Goblins and reach the hanuted city of Torm? Great adventures awaits the Beetroot brothers!
GUILDS GAME
We are also reviewing and testing Guilds whenever is possible, wich is still in open Alpha, and that's the reason we have not included new faction. Things are evolving quickly and it's really possible that we change core features, making the effort of adding factions totally worthless. Still, you can use any model you want as "skins" for the available factions.
Thanks a lot guys! We really hope you are looking forward to the Oldburg Fallen Ones. On our side, we can't wait to see your prints and colorschemes for them :)
The next contest will allow you to partecipate with both Shortsword Tale and Oldburg models.
Cheers!
Andrea & Francesca
