Depths of Cadwallon: Meet Thorvald

MEET THORVALD THE FALLEN !
Once a proud guardian of Tir-Nâ-Bor, Thorvald's life was shattered by a single mistake. While guarding an abandoned tunnel beneath the Ægis, he sought refuge in ale and fell asleep. In those precious moments, a Chthonian Larva slipped into the city, unleashing a massacre that would haunt him forever.
Cast out by his own people, Thorvald now wanders the depths beneath Cadwallon, hunting the creatures he once failed to stop. Grim, relentless and driven by redemption, he seeks only one thing: an honorable death beneath the Free City.
And that's not all: thanks to his Incarnation Hero card, Thorvald can also join your skirmish warband on the battlefields of Aarklash.

Work in progress - desert theme tabletop

And here we go again! But now it's bigger than a lot of things I have already done (Working on some Saint Seiya Myth cloth diorama for example). I still don't know if I over do it. But I love that table ! And be prepared for the next one... It will be very creepy...

But now it's time for some paint jobs. Everything is already primed but I need some other paint that will come this week. Then the airbrush will be used. Too, I need to sculpt and built some stairs for the arche and of course working my ass off to make it resemble something.

Incarnation - Newest insights on rules and release plans from English interview (Temple of the East)

Temple of the East interview with game designer (Boris).

https://youtu.be/j9YRD415uP0?si=FPeQfE5bFzN5nG0X

Key points - only NEW information not already in the previous French videos / interviews:

- Number of models per side will be minimum 6, maximum 12-15

- All factions that were kept in the game will have a box release before launch factions see new releases.

- Scenarios will be a combination of killing (eg. killing enemy Incarnates), zone control, token retrieval, positioning (eg. climb higher than opponent) and other classic shared mechanics. At this stage no secret / player-specific objectives.

- An app is being developed "we know it is an important commodity for players", unspecified if strictly for listbuilding or other / in game features, and currently "not top of the to-do-list".

- Some terrain is being developed with terrain designers to maximise use of terrian rules ("wink wink" in the video to one specific designer THM Miniatures), not specified if included with the starters or in the campaign at all.

- On using the results of the ongoing favourite faction survey: "We will take all the feedback possible, we are curious about everyone's personal preferences".

Incarnation Update 3

SIX FACTIONS AT LAUNCH & ONE BIG VOTE !

In short: Incarnation will now launch with six playable factions instead of four. Discover every legendary people of Aarklash and cast your vote in our community poll. Meet Onyx, Kylliar and the first heroes already preparing for the battles to come.

SIX FACTIONS. ONE WORLD TO EXPLORE.

When we first announced Incarnation, our plan was simple: launch the game with four playable factions and expand Aarklash over time. The response to the teaser, the first Wolfen and Alahan miniatures and the discussions that followed has encouraged us to think bigger.

We're now developing two additional factions, bringing the total to six playable peoples available at launch.

That decision naturally led to another question.

If Aarklash is returning, which of its peoples still captures the imagination of those who have walked this world for years? And just as importantly, which ones speak to those discovering it for the very first time?

And rather than answer this ourselves, we'd rather ask everyone of you.

WHO WOULD YOU STAND WITH?

For nearly thirty years, Aarklash has been shaped by kingdoms, tribes, baronies and forgotten civilizations. Each has its own history, beliefs and vision of the world. Some defend the Ways of Light. Others follow the Paths of Destiny. Others willingly embrace the Meanders of Darkness.

We've gathered every legendary people of Aarklash into a single community vote.

Take a moment to discover them. Read about their stories, their ideals and the forces they represent, then choose the one that speaks to you most.

Whether your choice is driven by old memories, curiosity or simply because one people immediately caught your eye, we'd genuinely like to know.

You have one vote, for one faction only. Choose wisely.

CHOOSE YOUR PEOPLE HERE


IN CASE YOU MISSED THEM: THE FIRST WOLFEN INCARNATE!

A few days ago, we introduced Onyx, the Wolfen Incarnate leading the reborn Throne of Stars. Alongside him comes Kylliar, a young predator haunted by his father Killyox's legacy, offered free as a Follower Gift to everyone following the campaign before launch.


THE WOLFEN OF YLLIA 
The world's greatest predators

Born of the Moon Goddess, the Wolfen roamed Aarklash as its first guardians long before kingdoms were raised,. Every pack carries its own history, yet all share the same duty: protect their people, preserve the balance of the world, and never abandon those who still run beside them. 

They will be joined by another iconic people of this world:

THE LIONS OF ALAHAN
The last kingdom of chivalry

The greatest human kingdom of Aarklash, Alahan was founded upon chivalry, virtue and the pursuit of justice. Its knights, mages and wandering champions travel far beyond its borders, convinced that true nobility is measured by the deeds one leaves behind.

They are only the first of many heroes who will soon step onto the battlefields of Aarklash. More peoples, more Incarnates and more stories are on the way.

Thank you for walking this road with us.
See you soon,
The Monolith Team

Work in progress - desert theme table top

​

And another project for today! Playing Bron O Kor is a good thing to do. Just go straight and see if something is still alive to clutch backwards and go back home with a certain idea to have been able to get a good table... Hum... a good time ! Avangorok validation has been made but he told me that he need some place to hide.

Of course a desert deserve some decors. I might get some inspiration from Elden ring and the Caelid area with some stones from the Arches national Park in the USA. Got some work left to do but it will be awesome in the end. Plus it's compatible with the other table ! But my wife don't like the idea that I will occupy the entire diner table to play ! Please raise your hand to help me. I wish to make her understand that is a life or death question 🤣

And yes... One of my wolfen has some M&Ms problems... He's seeing a therapist be sure he's doing well

New Confrontation YouTube Channel

Hey everyone, I'm new to Reddit and this channel but I thought I would create a post introducing my new Confrontation related YouTube channel. To be honest, I didn't even know this community existed till someone stopped on by my channel and said they came from Reddit. Thanks for keeping the game alive!

My goal with this YouTube channel is to help raise the water level of all things Confrontation and keep people informed. If there's anything you think would be helpful to have a video covering please let me know and I'll do my best.

In this latest video, I share the various resources for Confrontation. If this Reddit channel is still active, I can also encourage people to start checking if out.

Thank you!

Clones in the wild

While I enjoyed doing some decor some Dirz thought that it would be good to go outside and take some fresh air

Work in progress - table top

Some pictures of what I'm doing right now. I used some extruded polystyrene and a sheet of green carpet. But it's I thought about the modularity first and that's why I kept the lips to help myself to create other kind of environment. Now I'm working on ruins and other stuff to help the things to be more alive and playable both for Incarnation and Rag Narok because I like that game even though all the events seems never happened 😋
