Halflings and fantasy friends!

Warlords of Erehwon Rulebooks and a cart riding commander! Unlocks, resin bases, final day of the campaign tomorrow!
over 5 years ago – Fri, Dec 14, 2018 at 08:23:46 AM

Sorry for the delay in updates today guys. We've been working on something for the last week and Im delighted to share it now. A lot of people have been messaging asking if we plan to do a rules system on this kickstarter. We never did but then our mates over at Warlord Games went and put a rulebook out there designed by the legendary Rick Priestly which fit the bill perfectly!

.

We are still in talks as to where this is going to go but for now you can add the rulebook to your pledge. Rick asked for one thing from us. A sherrif riding in a cart which is an option for your leader. So here he is!

.

You can order him as part a set with the book or just the sheriff on his own. We only plan to make 500 of these which will come with a certificate and be exclusive to this kickstarter project and pledge manager. Any we have left after the campaign will come with us to the shows we attend until we run out. The only way we will make more than 500 will be if more that that number are ordered in this campaign. You will know which you have as they will all be numbered :) The book also comes with a limited edition metal necromancer from Warlord and the model is awesome. Its 250 plus pages with rules for playing with all manner of armies including Halflings. Here is what Warlord said.

.

.

'WHAT IS EREHWON? Warlords of Erehwon transports us to the multifarious fantasy realms of fiction, folklore and myth, placing us at the head of a fighting force of our choosing. Model warbands clash across fantastical tabletops as humans and monsters, the living and the dead, war over the spoils of victory in a universe of heroes, sorcerers and the supernatural. Our game has been designed with a single objective in mind – to allow us to play fast-paced and exciting miniature battles on a 6×4′ table between rival warbands. A warband represents your own band of warriors – courageous humans, blood-thirsty monsters, perhaps even minions that you have raised from beyond the grave to do your bidding.

Your force might typically comprise a few dozen models organised into loose groups of fighters, commonly five to ten strong each, or a single model in the case of chariots, giant monsters and war machines. This gives us our ‘warband’ style game, large enough to provide scope for scenario building, with plenty of opportunity to reward tactical play, but at the same time keeping things manageable in terms of the size of our forces and space required. Warlords of Erehwon uses ten-sided dice providing for a game with mechanical depth and considerable adaptability. An intuitive universal dice test system means that play proceeds at a good pace once players are familiar with the core mechanics. A host of unique and entertaining attributes ensure that different creatures fight and behave after their own fashion, bringing their own mix of strengths and weaknesses to the fight.'

.

If you are a backer of the Mega pledge the cart and book will be included :)

We've also unlocked a whole load of new things from the current stretch goal map.

.

.

The above concept will be turned into an MDF kit by Ben. As will the Watermill below

 .

 .

This halfling sorceress adventurer was unlocked and the halfling healer adventurer below is our next target.

.

We've now smashed 3 of the 4 social goals! 

.

On Twitter we just need 26 more followers to reveal the last included hero and add another as yet unseen to the box.

 .

On our previous kickstarter our great value packs of resin bases were a huge hit. So we've knocked some Dungeon bases up for this campaign!

 .

People have been requesting an RPG Monster add on so I will add that first thing tomorrow. It will be £20 and include 1 troll, 1 golem, 1 ice golem, a marbeast, 1 werewolf and 1 treeman :) As there are going to be 3 poses for each a random one will be selected.

That is probably the biggest update to date! Thank you all for your support as we enter the final day of the campaign :)

The final 48 hours.

Bit of a hectic day here at the offices as we launched our new community site and Ben (who has been handling the graphics on this campaign) was off for the first time in 10 days!

We broke a bunch more stretch goals, available as add ons and included in pledges levels where noted.

.

Worth me pointing out that the Mega Pledge includes a unit of 10 mummies and 20 halfling skeleton spearmen which are otherwise only available as add ons. The skeletons got a bit more detailing to make their weapons, armour and shields look like they had been to the grave and back. Speaking of which the Graveyard is on the brink of unlocking and I will share more sketches of that tomorrow.

I was in the comments all day and will be again tomorrow and Friday so if you have questions fire them at me :)

Lets see if we can get a few more goals unlocked before the campaign closes including those social goals which add an extra adventurer to the £15 box.

We are also working on some resin bases in both dungeon and cobblestone designs. Hope to add them to the campaign tomorrow :D

I will leave you for the night with something I spotted on my way past Fins desk today

.

Thank you all for your backing!

Halfling scale shot!
over 5 years ago – Thu, Dec 13, 2018 at 02:21:34 AM

A lot of people have asked about the sizing of our halflings. Im not sure on the legalities of posting our models next to those of other manufacturers but they sit at the same height as halflings from other popular companies. For now here is a shot next to a measure! I have measured from the bottom of the miniature rather than the bottom of the base.

 Back later tonight with another update!

72 Hour Countdown! 600% Funded! Dungeon Tiles! Mega Pledge!
over 5 years ago – Wed, Dec 12, 2018 at 11:39:40 AM

72 hours left of the campaign and we have smashed a total of 38 stretch goals! We are 600% funded! Thank you all! There are another 2 to go on the current map and if we break those I have another map of 10 ready for us to try and tackle before the campaign is over.

.

We've been asked for a Mega pledge and so it has been added! It comes with a 3D render of a miniature used in the production of the models in this campaign. I actually have a video where Jamie shows them better.

.

Tomorrow Im going to look at some RPG Booster add ons with some of the monsters as it has been another thing requested a lot of times.

.

People wanted Dungeon Tiles to go with their RPG pledge and take advantage of our fixed rate shipping. We put together this amazing set! The squares on the tiles are 25mm. Models shown on the tiles are for scale only and not included, we are including 9 different halfling miniatures from this campaign though. Miniatures may vary to those shown in the renders and art. It also comes with a handy dice tower! I will take a closer look at this 3mm thickness MDF set in another update.

.

Considering the weight of this thing it will surely put our couriers to the test!

I will be back in the morning to take a better look at the stretch goals we have broken through today :)

SOOO many unlocks!!
over 5 years ago – Tue, Dec 11, 2018 at 11:24:04 AM

Yesterday morning we added a new stretch goal map of 10 targets. 7 of which are already unlocked!

The halfling blacksmiths is being CAD by Ben as we speak.

.

We unlocked the halfling gladiator adventurer. Now available as a £4 add on and included in the £250 halfling army pledge

.

20 more halfling swordsmen were added to a couple of the larger pledge levels. Just look how big this £250 pledge level is getting!

.

The sorcerer was also unlocked. Now available as a £4 add on and included in the £250 halfling army pledge

.

We wanted to add some bridges to the campaign to make our halfling village more accessible. Now available as a £4 add on and included in the £250 halfling army pledge

.

The halfling fighter adventurer, armed to the teeth with blades. Now available as a £4 add on and included in the £250 halfling army pledge

.

With all of these extra regiments we thought it might be nice to mix up your command models a little. The following set of 10 will be produced as a £12 add on should you wish to add more variety to your forces.

.

Lets also take a look at our next target!

One of the first messages we got on this campaign was asking for halfling ninjas. While they didn't fit the army we thought it was a great idea for an adventurer class!

.

How many more goals can we break today?! Another map awaits should we finish this one. Back in a few hours with an update on the social goals and more :)
