Aristeia

With the Double Trouble expansion coming soon for Aristeia, there's not just two new combatants that are going to be entering the arena, but a whole new set of Tactics Cards that players will have to get to know (and possibly watch out for). In this preview, Corvus Belli has posted up said Tactics Cards so you can study up before the set hits shelves.

Note: the English cards are after the Spanish ones in the gallery.

Thursday. Gateway to Friday, Gateway to the Weekend. We're getting there, everyone. We can make it. Having had an incredibly busy week, it's certainly gone by quickly for me. And today we're keeping on with it. We're also keeping with our custom of making your gaming tables look better.

Today in the Terrain Corner we have: Dungeon Craft Modular Terrain Pieces Up On Kickstarter and New Aristeia Mats Available From Deep-Cut Studios

Dungeon Craft Modular Terrain Pieces Up On Kickstarter

Dungeon Craft is the culmination of a lot of work by a few friends that truly believe it is a great tool for players and DMs alike. We wanted to make a book that was affordable to everyone while still being of great quality. Dungeon Craft is perfect for any D&D essential kit or collection. This book is beneficial for seasoned veterans, new players, young children, and everyone else who enjoys role-playing games. We have been play testing this book for some time and have sent it out into the world for DMs and players to "put it through its paces". After all the work and testing, we are ready to present it here to all of you. Thank you for your time and interest. I hope you enjoy our book.

There's a new expansion for Aristeia coming soon. It's the Chemical Brothers expansion (I just love the tracks they put down...). You can get your name on the list to be one of the first gamers to get it when it's available. Corvus Belli is taking pre-orders starting today.

2019 is here. It's a brand new year with a lot of things to look forward to. In order to help you get your calendar all set, Corvus Belli has posted up a 2019 preview of shows they're going to, along with some teasers about what can be expected from them as the months roll along.

From the post:

As 2018 comes to a close, so does a year full of great news and excitement for Infinity. In my opinion, it was one of the most influential years in the game’s history, as among many other things, we launched five new sectorials - The Japanese Sectorial Army (JSA), Tunguska, Varuna, the Tartary Army Corps, and the Operations Subsection of the S.S.S. The background has advanced with the secession of the Japanese and the Third Offensive, and during all of this, we released a plethora of new miniatures —although we didn’t end up releasing a new version of Musashi. I'm not complaining though: after all - we did release a new Jeanne!

Our minds are already set in 2019, as you could see on the calendar at Gen Con with all those questions marks and the huge black N. There are so many theories floating around, and I can even say that SOME of them are getting REALLY close! The black N is next year’s biggest surprise - and if everything goes as expected, we will be able to release some details at AdeptiCon.

Corvus Belli is prepping for next year, and all of us should be happy to see what they've been working on. They have a new crop of Infinity releases to bring in the New Year, as well as a new release for Aristeia. Have a look-see for yourself.

Good lord, Gen Con's damn-near here. And along with the seemingly billion of other things to get done, don't forget to pencil in time to get your pre-orders in over on Corvus Belli's website for your Infinity and Aristeia. Then, you'll just have to go to the booth and pick 'em up. Saves a bit of time so you can run off to the next booth and get the awesome things there.

Spectator sports are half physical contest and half entertainment, after all, so having a few mirrors and some smoke makes sense, especially in a contest like Aristeia. As such, a quartet of new players will be making their way to the pitch. And they're coming in the appropriately titled Smoke & Mirrors set. We get a look at them here.




From the announcement:

Smoke & Mirrors: Entertainment at its best arrives in Aristeia!

Corvus Belli announces the second Aristeia! expansion!

Four new fighters (Kozmo, Padre-Inquisidor Mendoza, Táowù, and Murtair) arrive in the HexaDome to change the perception of the game.
A new State and new token are incorporated: A Burning and Smoke.

The Smoke & Mirrors (SnM) expansion pack is going to change the perception of the game, making it more entertaining than ever before! A Padre-Inquisidor willing to burn heretics, an Asian sorcerer who tortures his enemies with their worst nightmares, a bloodthirsty half-breed Wulver, and a robot that throws smoke grenades comprise the incredible characters who will mesmerize the audience. Nothing is what it seems in Aristeia!

Corvus Belli has hit the ground running with Aristeia, their sci-fi sports miniatures game. But, as much as people might be loving the base game, gamers are almost always wanting more. Corvus has listened. The first expansion for the game is almost upon us (release date of March 23rd). It's called Soldiers of Fortune, and if you wanna check out what you can expect, look at this new preview.




From the post:

Soldiers of Fortune is coming!

First Aristeia! Expansion: Soldiers of Fortune (SoF) is here.

Four new characters (Señor Massacre, Valkyrie, Laxmee and Hannibal) come to HexaDome.
Four new tactics cards will be available for each new Aristeia! character.
Two new States are incorporated: Focused and Stunned.

Soldiers of Fortune (SoF) is an expansion designed around a mercenary group from minor Leagues of Aristeia!

Three days hence, we will have our most-darkest of days. That which is called, "Black Friday." I don't know why I'm talking like Thor from Texts from Superheroes, considering we're here to talk about Corvus Belli, but there we are, then. They have posted up a graphic showing what special deals you'll be able to get on this one-day-only sale.

If you're looking to get into a new sci-fi sports game, your time has come. Today's the release day for Corvus Belli's Aristeia. Grab your team and head on down to the pitch. There's both the main core box, as well as a collector's edition available to order over in Corvus' webshop.


About the game:

One hundred and seventy five years into the future, the human race has reached the stars. The ancient nations have gathered into immense, international, federated blocks and have divided the star systems proved suitable for human life. The most advanced medicine makes it possible to extend life, and together with the most advanced (and most expensive) technology, almost reach corporeal immortality. It also allows treats such as the most popular extreme-contact sport: Aristeia!, a series of high-level, armed combats where death is a real possibility.

Aristeia! is the new sports game by Corvus Belli, a MOBA-style tabletop game that allows two players to take the role of competition team managers in the greatest visual show of the Human Sphere.

You don’t need anything other than the *Aristeia! Core Box *to enjoy one of the best games on the market, as it contains everything you need to play.

Some of you have your pre-order already in for Aristeia, the new fantasy sports game coming from Corvus Belli. But we still don't know everything about the game. In their continuing preview series, this time we get a look at Skills and Special Effects in the game. And I don't mean CGI.


From the post:

Special Effects

In Aristeia! the most important effects are the Switches that can be used by any of the players, they are different depending on the Aristo. These abilities provide versatility and dynamism to the games and, on occasions, will flip your rival upside down.
Switches

Switches allow activation of certain effects from rolls that each character makes. To activate a Switch, the character must spend some of the symbols from the roll. These symbols will not be usable for anything else.

It is very important to keep in mind that the players must play the Switches after Rolling the dice from a Roll, and before resolving said Roll.

Corvus Belli's Aristeia, their new sci-fi sports action miniatures game, is still on its way to people's tabletops, but with just about any game, as soon as it comes out, people are wondering, "so... expansions?" CB's not wasting any time and has announced the first one, Soldiers of Fortune.




From the announcement:

The line-up of available Characters for Aristeia!, the new Corvus Belli tabletop, players grows with the release of its first expansion, Soldiers of Fortune.

This expansion, that will be released next February, presents four new aristos and add two new States to the game.

Aristeia is not golf. It's not curling. It's not competitive underwater basketweaving. No. It's full-contact. You're going to be making attacks. But... how do those work? Well, in this preview, we get to find out.


From the post:

We have spent several weeks talking about the Aristeia! (how rolls work, how to move and how the actions are executed) and, unveiling bit by bit all that the new Corvus Belli’s board game has to offer. This week we want to talk you about attacking in the HexaDome.

It is time for combat!

You know, you can't really have an action-packed game without actions. And Aristeia, the new game coming from Corvus Belli, is said to be action-packed. So, let's take a look at what type of actions you'll be packing in there.


From the preview:

After talking about how rolls work in Aristeia!, the new table top game from Corvus Belli, today we will go deeper into everything to do with Actions. These are essential in the game, they define and give flavor to each of the Characters.

In Aristeia! there are two types of Actions. The common Actions that every Character can perform and the specific Actions that are different depending on each Character. We are going to look at these Actions:

Source

I think it's safe to say that most miniatures games out there use dice of some kind. Sure, there are those that go for some other method, but the fairly tried-and-true method of randomization comes from little plastic polyhedrons bouncing across the table. Aristeia is no different. But Corvus Belli has decided not to use the D20s that fans of Infinity know. Instead, they've got special dice with unique symbols on them. In this preview, we get a look at the different types of dice and what those symbols mean.




From the post:

The twenty fifth season of Aristeia! is about to start. All the aristos, prospects, and previous season champions have a common goal: seize victory, reach glory, and achieve fame. But for that they need to forge an alliance with the dice and be in Fortune’s good graces in the arena.

To determinate the success of the different Actions Characters can execute, we need to roll dice. Dice in Aristeia! are special and characterized by the symbols appearing on each one of their sides.

Corvus Belli is hitting the fantasy sports scene with Aristeia! But how do you actually win the game? What are you supposed to do out there on the pitch? Well, there's actually a couple different ways to go about it, depending on what scenario you're playing. All of them involve getting victory points, but how you score them is different in each. And, in one, it's different every turn.


From the preview:

What do you have to do in order to win Aristeia!?

The goal of the game is to get more Victory points than the opponent. Achieving these points will depend upon the Objectives set by set by the scenario. So each of the Aristeia! scenarios gives the player a different challenge.

Assault: This scenario is based on controlling the Scoring Zones, which change location every round.
Conquest: Here the objective is to have more Scoring Zones than the opponent.
King of the Hill: This one consists of controlling the central Scoring Zone, but sending enemies to the infirmary can also bring you victory.
Scorched Earth: in this Scenario, the Scoring Zone also changes from round to round but can never repeat.

In each of these Scenarios the game will end either at the end of the fifth Round, or when one of the players gets eight or more Victory Points. In case of a tie, the winner will be the player with the most Frag tokens. A player will get a Frag token by sending an opponent’s character to the infirmary.

So, we've gotten a look at what the rules for the various characters from the Aristeia starter set will look like, and the artwork has been around for a while. But what about the miniatures, themselves? Corvus Belli is known for its miniatures, so what will these new ones look like? The wait is over. They've given us a look.

Take a look at the miniatures of Aristeia! You will find them in the core box. Eight plastic assembled figures with awesome abilities.

Aristeia! is Corvus Belli's venture into the world of fantasy sports. We'll be first introduced to this through their starter box. In this preview, take a look at the characters that'll be coming in said box and check out their various stats and special abilities.


From the preview:

As weeks go by, Aristeia! gets closer (if you have not heard yet, Aristeia! will be on pre-order October the 26th 2017). We’ve already told you what’s waiting for you in the new game from Corvus Belli (Inside Aristeia!), and today we are going to talk about the true protagonists: the characters.

You’ve seen the pin-ups of what Kenny Ruiz has done, and we have to say, they are amazing, but the best is inside the box.

The Core Box will come with 8 plastic miniatures, preassembled and ready to storm the HexaDome. Each character, apart from looking amazing, has different sets of skills and unique game mechanics that we are sure will adapt to your playstyle.

Well, Corvus Belli has announced a new game set in their Infinity universe. It's called Aristeia! and... that's about it that they've told us.
It uses a hex board, though (possibly, probably). Check out the teaser video.




And there we have it.
