The Mistress of the Hunt is capable of putting fear into the hearts of even the most stalwart Paladin of the Order of the Ram.

Norsgard posted up a preview of some Dwarf miniatures they're working on.



Source

From the post:

Do not forget about Kickstarter - 3/November/2014

To survive in the mountains, one must be resourceful and capable of defending oneself and his family from bandits. Gathering food and other chores are much more troublesome than down in the flatlands. But dwarves brought up high up in the peaks are robust and able. They can march for miles through thick snow, hauling backpacks laden with goods. At night, they hold a torch in one hand and axe in the other, always ready to fend off would-be attackers. Many dared an assault on these mountain wanderers, tempted by prospects of easy gain; now their corpses line dwarven roads, guiding towards safe havens.

Norsgard is showing off their artwork and 3D render for the Wulfkin armsmaster mini they're working on.



Source

From the post:

Wulfkin armsmasters devote their entire lives to perfecting one-on-one combat, in which many say they are undefeated. To think it their only quality would be a grave mistake, however. Following the daily dose of weapon practice, they can be found pouring over books telling of wars that raged over Isbran in the days of yore. A true Armsmaster slits a throat and conceives a war campaign with equal ease.

Norsgard is showing off one of their painted-up Dark Guard for their Ice Elves Army campaign on Indiegogo. They've got a week left and are still looking to make their funding goal.



Source

From the campaign:

Only the most knowledgeable of mages, ones that have never wavered before the enemy, fighting shoulder to shoulder with other templars from the front, may be intro¬duced to the inner circle of the Dark Guard. The sorcerer wishing to command brothers bearing the mark of the betrayer must possess immense presence and courage to lead them into battle. Not unlike anything connec¬ted with the Scarlet Watch, being placed in charge of its unit is not cause for celebration. As it often happens, order command assigns certain politically inconvenient mages to the Guard, sending them away to the border¬lands to fend off barbarians... In spite of this ostracism, they enjoy enough trust to be allowed access to necro¬mantic tomes, a fact which reflects in the spells they cast.

From the review:

Recently I came into possession of this set. I decided to make a short review of it’s contents and the minis’ quality.
This starter box contains five metal models: Warchief, Vei-Banshee and 3 Tribal Warriors. All come with round 30mm bases. The figures are about 37mm tall. The quality of the casts is good. The mould lines are visible, but easy to remove. There are many tiny parts, as you can see on the pictures:

Norsgard has their preliminary rulebook for their game now available to download from their website.



Source

From the announcement:

Be sure to download the game rulebook which is now available at our site. Since its first draft, the game went through a large number of changes, which resulted in the game being a more complete experience. Finally we were also able to add the long awaited campaign mode.

The rulebook is rich with illustrations that help you immerse yourself in the setting, in which small bands of heroes face each other in furious battles. The graphic design is the child of famous and well-known artists, who I am sure you will recognize by their unique styles! Their contribution enabled us to create breath taking models which will be a delightful pleasure to paint.

Lastly, please bear in mind that as one of the very few companies that don’t rely on crowd funding, we are able to meet your demands faster and you won’t be waiting long for your orders to arrive. Templars from the Order of the Ram will move out swiftly, forcing their way through icebound paths to deliver you your goods.
As the army of elven undead approach, the world of Norsgard needs your support more than ever in its history!

Norsgard posted up a big announcement about their January releases. Go take a peek.



From the update:

New releases are just around the corner - the first of the trio of Mork warriors, plus a restock of the previous releases in our on-line store! Valdis the Witch of the Undead faction will be available in next week. Besides these, the long-awaited Special and Combat cards are also going to be added to the store. What’s more we will add those cards for free for each order over 40 Euro!

In other news, army cards are making a return and will be included with every model. Unfortunately, cards for the Tribal Warrior and the Warchief will not be ready till February.

What is more, the game rules have undergone a slight change. From now on, you can field an army made up of units belonging to all the noble peoples of Isbran united under the banner of the Alliance of Ice, while all the evil forces of the lands rally together under the banner of the Alliance of Fire. For the anxious, we have posted on our forums in Rules section an excerpt from the new rulebook detailing army-building rules. The revised rulebook itself will be available from our site early February.

Take a close look on the Dark Guard. These solemn mages are keepers of the order’s secrets and will stop at nothing to prevent other nations from discovering them.

Stay tuned... It is only going to get better.
