Fireforge Games: Forgotten World Kickstarter

Der Fantasy-Kickstarter von Fireforge Games läuft.

Forgotten World is Fireforge Games newest project.    

Our intent is to bring to life an entire new range of fantasy models, perfect for your fantasy wargames and roleplaying campaigns.

Fireforge Games is an italian company with expertise in the creation and distribution of multi-part 28mm, miniature figures. Our products are made with Hard Plastic (HIP – High Impact Polystyrene) or resin to assemble and paint. The production of our kits will take place in the EU, completely under our quality control.

Here at Fireforge, our employees are passionate and long-time wargamers and hobbyists, and this passion is the main motivation behind our work. Our goal is to give you (and ourselves of course), fun and entertainment with our figures and games.

This Kickstarter campaign seeks funds to release six units for the first two Forgotten World’s factions; the Northmen and the Living Dead. Below you will find a complete description of all the plastic kits, which will be released upon a successful Kickstarter; including our future available options and many pictures of assembled and painted figures, representing the final product.

The Northmen 

The Northern Kingdom is one of the strongest and largest nations of the New World. Once a united country, led by an ancient dynasty, now it is divided between generals, lords and rich merchants; assembling their own armies to conquer the throne. Any Northmen army can count on an excellent core of warriors, expert soldiers without fear of the enemy, with a good number of bowmen, who with their arrow fire, cover the advance of their warrior brethren. The flanks of a Northmen army are usually protected by fast units of mounted men at arms, usually bodyguards of the local vassal and act perfectly as scouts or to chase a routed enemy.

The Living Dead

When the plague first appeared in the Old World, it spread rapidly, bringing death among the weak nations of the East; now being reduced to little more than ruins. It did not take long before the disease began to spread in the New World. But the rumors about the plague had already alarmed the kingdoms of the west very few of them fall prey to the Living Dead. Many years have passed since then, the kingdoms of the west are weakened by rivalries and internal struggles for power while the living dead led by the now undead kings of the past era have begun to spread their influence. The most isolated villages easily fall prey to the contagion, while necromancers use their dark powers to raise the remains of ancient warriors, from battlefields long forgotten into the service of their dead kings. And when the full moon arrives, and the magic of death is strengthened, the knights of death are unleashed on the earth for the harvest …
