April News & Previews #2 (Patreon)

For ten years, the universe of Grimdark Future has only been glimpsed through a couple of narrative campaigns, short army book introductions, illustrations and design cues on models. Things have already begun to change this year, however, with the rolling out of the new Secrets of Tixal narrative campaign and short stories. 

The Grimdark Future World Book is the next big step in unveiling the lore for our game!

So what is the Grimdark Future World Book?

This 64-page book has been a long time project which has grown and developed alongside the setting and its lore. A primer on the wider Grimdark Future setting, it will connect the lore shown so far through narrative campaigns, short stories and army book intros and build a foundation for future stories and campaigns. 

Featuring:

Humanity’s origins and history in the Grimdark Future

The history, ongoing conflicts, key locations and factions of the Sirius Sector

Information on societies in the setting, touching on everything from space travel to policing.

Galactic geography, introducing the wider galaxy and the planets contained within.

Beautiful artwork on almost every page, including some factions never before depicted by OPR

New short stories and flash fiction throughout the book, depicting life on and off the battlefield in Sirius.

At the top of post, you'll see some early previews of the what we are working on for April!

The Vampiric Undead let loose the dogs of war with the Werewolf Champion and Werewolves unit. Their massive Claws rend through armor like butter. But when that's not enough, they can also be equipped with great weapons to cleave through the enemy ranks.The High Elf Fleets turn up the heat with the Scorchers and Noble Scorcher. Adept in all things burning, the scorchers excel at being Anti-tank with their armor melting Fusion Rifles. When equipped with Heavy Flamers, they roast off hordes of enemies instead.Please remember that these are early WIP shots of the models and not the final versions of the models.

That's it for this week, happy wargaming!
