The World of Legend is a place of countless paths and possibilities. The road ahead winds through haunted forests, mist-shrouded lands, and bustling ports where fortune and danger walk side by side.

Gravelord Spotlight: Blautaric

A Kingdom Devoured

Blautaric was once Lord Borin Vorrinius, one of the ruling nobles of Somermist during the twilight of the Third Age. When the Granum River withered and famine spread through the realm, Borin did not suffer with his people. His granaries remained full, his vaults grew heavier, and every starving household became another chance to tighten his grip.

His greed eventually found a teacher in Maelithar, a dark sorceress who offered him immortality and dominion through necromancy and flesh-weaving. Borin accepted, and the bargain was paid for in the blood of the people he had already bled dry. What came out of that ritual was no longer a lord, but Blautaric: a rotting titan of hunger, wealth, and undeath.

He did not stop with survival. Blautaric turned his own kingdom into a feast. The dead rose under his command, the noble houses of Somermist fell, and even High King Eadred Eldengard could not stop him. Eadred’s defeat became one of Blautaric’s cruelest trophies, his ruined body reshaped into part of the monstrous Necrosteed the Warlord would one day ride into battle.

Blautaric is greed given a corpse’s body. He consumes life, land, loyalty, and history itself, turning everything he takes into another piece of his dead empire.

Choose Your Faction

The endless forest of the Wyldwood is filled with untold creatures, prehistoric monsters and budding tribes. We have picked five factions to introduce for the launch of the game on September 15th, but there are many more to come in the future.

Each faction has its own champions, unique Command cards, and a completely different approach to battle. Whether you want to strike from the shadows, charge headlong into combat, control the battlefield, or simply refuse to die, there’s a faction for you.

Let us know in the comments which you will choose?

Leafsong Nomads

Speed, ranged attacks, healing and wisp control

The elves of the Leafsong live as nomads, moving with the great herds of the Wyldwood. They are unmatched in speed and ranged combat, striking from afar before disappearing back into the forest. 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mmHX2-1qlCw

Urscar Kindred

Melee strength, defence and denial 

The primitive dwarves of the Urscar measure themselves against the greatest beasts of the Wyldwood. Powerful and aggressive, they excel in close combat and are willing to sacrifice anything for glory and an eternal life through story.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S0mW5C47bhc

Emberhold Ascended

Fire, spike damage and wisp destruction 

The humans of Emberhold have done something no other people have dared: they have begun to tame the Wyldwood. Armed with fire, strange inventions, and relentless ambition, they are building the world's first city.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T6souXbTVlo

Witherwood Legions

Poison, unrelenting melee and power from death

Once living creatures of the forest, the Witherwood are twisted remnants of forest and flesh. They may be slow, but once they have you trapped, escape becomes almost impossible

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AkEM4EpXDVQ

Nightwood Covenant

Magic trickery, AoE damage and endurance

The orcs of the Nightwood live in deep harmony with the forest, carrying the memories of generations that came before them. They call upon ancient wisdom and the spirits of the Wyldwood to endure whatever their enemies throw at them

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JGmYCpj_PHM

Which Faction Are You?

Five factions. Five very different ways to play, which one are you choosing?

And if you want to go deeper, you can meet all of the champions and learn more about each faction on the live stream we did here.

Once again, we wanted to thank Ramona, the designer of the beautiful page break we've been using.  You can follow her here on Bluesky and enjoy many of her art pieces or here is her website where you can also request commissions.

NEW ARMY: Para Bellum Games Conquest: First Blood: City States - Totally Pawsome

Just to prove that we're putting our money where our mouth is, here's the evidence that we have picked up our beginner force for Para Bellum Games Conquest: First Blood Army.  In the picture you can see that we have our Warband, our Reinforcements and of course Persenia the Gorgon.  This means that our forces to date are:

Leaders:

Persenia the Gorgon (Aristarch)

1x Andromarchos

1x Aristarch

We're not sure where we are going after these but after a good read of the rules we'll make our choices.  We do however really want the Terataur Prime mini out at the end of September.

Of course we'll shortly be doing an unboxing of each of these and hopefully a video of construction for each and with luck, painting tips.  We hope you'll join us for this new journey.

All the best,

ThunderMouser

NEWS: Warmachine: New Pre-orders, a preview of Septembers Tribes STLS and a fab Mercenary strides to the fore and more - Steamforged Games

Hail Mighty Readers and Followers of the Luck Gods Rocks,

Steamforged Games released a ton of items for pre-order on Tuesday for Warmachine that will be released on the 29th September 2026.  There's so much we don't know if we have the space for everything:

The Gathering Darkness:

Few can claim the absolute mastery over life and death achieved by Harasheth. The life essence of both friend and foe are fuel for sorceries that knit the flesh of the fallen and force them to rise again in utter subservience to the whims of their master. His very presence heralds corruption and decay, the misery of his foes a delicious nectar that feeds his ravenous appetite.

Gathering Darkness is an excellent entry point to Dusk Fane of Nyrro, providing you with a resilient attrition force that excels in both Command and Skirmish level Warmachine games, as well as powerful options when constructing a larger army to take on bigger battles.

What’s in the box?

Harasheth, the Gorged Darkness (Warlock)

Vordak (Heavy Warbeast)

Riven (Solo)

Razorbat Alpha (Solo)

The Forsaken (Solo)

Styrge Hounds (Unit)

Hollowed (Unit)

The Merciless (Unit)

This box set can be pre-ordered here.

If you want any of the mini's that are featured in the list on their own you can pre-order them here.

Captain Barl "Demolisher" Dunax:

Captain Barl “Demolisher” Dunax has spent his career figuring out exactly where to put them. Once an engineer in the Searforge Commission and a student of legendary warcaster Durgen Madhammer, Dunax has fought across the Iron Kingdoms and picked up a considerable amount of demolition expertise along the way.

Now he's putting that experience up for hire, bringing his knowledge of demolitions and fortifications to Gravediggers, Winter Korps, Kithguard and Rhul Guard armies.

Need something demolished? Captain Dunax is your dwarf.

Hire the right dwarf for the job. Pre-order Captain Dunax now.
