FORTHCOMING GAME FOUND CAMPAIGN UPDATE: Duskhollow - Archon Studio

Hail Mighty Readers and Followers of the Luck Gods Math Rocks, 

Archon Studio's have put out a brand new update on their forthcoming Gamefound Campaign Duskhollow that is coming to the fore in the second quarter of 2026.  

In this update we are not only given a brand new video to delve into but we get to meet the folk of the realm and what living there has done to them.  Whilst some remain unchanged, there are those who have mutated and one of those is the Mutant Artificer.  But who is he?  According to Archon Studio's, "a peculiar soul who spends his days surrounded by strange contraptions, broken machinery, and things that probably shouldn’t be making that kind of noise.

Is he a genius inventor? A failed experiment? Someone who simply spent far too much time in the wrong corner of Duskhollow?"

Alongside him we also have the Mysterious Human Wanderer, who could be a fab NPC there to help guide and rescue your party when things are at their bleakest or perhaps someone who disagree's with a decision your party made and is determined to find out more about them to exact a form of punishment.

Obviously there are more cast and characters to meet such as the Elf Priestess who perhaps might know more than they're letting on about this dark realm but the one we're really excited for, is the deliciously dark Vampire Lady whose teeth may be baying for your blood or perhaps being a hidden benefactor in some nefarious scheme for her to take over.  We will have to wait and see.

All round these updates keep us guessing and as you are sure, we can't wait to embark upon the adventures that this will not only spawn within Archon's own creation with the scenery and characters easily being able to carry across to other stories you will love to tell with your players.  Stay tuned for more news, Same Vampire Bat Place, Same Vampire Bat Channel.

All the best,

FORTHCOMING GAMEFOUND CAMPAIGN UPDATE: Duskhollow - Archon Studio

Hail Mighty Readers and Followers of the Luck Gods Math Rocks, 

Archon Studio's have given us a new update on the forthcoming Gamefound Campaign for those who love the dark and mysterious horror worlds of Vampires entitled Duskhollow.  Coming in the second Quarter of 2026, you can sign up now be one of the first to get in there.  

In this update we get to hear about a fair few of the other items coming in the campaign bundle, which includes the fabulous gates for the Monastary core set alongside another of the core pieces the walking hut which every backer will receive once that goal is unlocked which also has an alternate bottom part so you can choose to have it as either a house in a tree or as a walking chicken legged house.  As you'd expect from Archon, the house is also fully playable with an interior that is full of delightful details, unlike its inhabitant Baba Yaga (the witch not John Wick.  lol.)  

Obviously we'll add more details as we get them, but as far as we're concerned curerntly, this set is looking to build itself up into something pretty epic, espceially when you add the carefully crafted roofs that are being shown that will just have you falling in love with this darkened environment to really help bring the horror to the table.  

So keep your eyes ready, your fingers one the pulse and if you enjoy it, start crafting your own delightful adventures to throw at your players when it lands so that you have plenty of opportunity to create something unique as well as hauntingly memorable.  So far we haven't heard anything about the accompanying book in regard to this set, but looking at whats been announced you're really going to have not only a fabulous adventure but creations that will firmly have your players glued to each gaming session.  Epic

Hail Mighty Readers and Followers of the Luck Gods Rocks,

Tuesday, saw the launch of the brand new Imperatus, Ashen Phoenix (from wherever you purchase your Warmachine Miniatures from or from their own shop here for $79.99) which joined Dusk House Kallyss for the wargame:

One life isn’t enough, Imperatus brings its rebuilt Phoenix Protocol engine to the battlefield, refusing to stay down, and igniting foes ablaze who stand awed by its spectacular rekindling.
