Hey Guys and Gulls,

We have announced potential new bundle deals for Relics to help players get into the game and build up a larger force easier. The packs are designed to be larger than the canned starter sets and encompass more of the rules by including models that use command and magic. This enables the players to get deeper into the game faster with a single purchase.

On top of that, the new potential deals will come packaged with a KR Multicase so the figures have something in which to travel in between battles

You can find details here:

http://www.torgaming.co.uk/rd/army_bag/

We're looking for feedback on these deals before we go ahead with them, so would be good to see what people think.

Cheers
Gavin

The deals seem quite interesting, giving a solid core for each force. I think the only thing that would make it clearer is the actual model count for each unit/force.

Otherwise something I would definitely be interested in purchasing (possibly for more than one of the factions too!)

The exact model count has been added to the blog post, but I've pasted it below too for you. ;-)

So, what would be in the packs and how much damn it? Well, below you will find the price for each factions pack and the models that come with the bag. Each pack brings with it a saving of around £10 on the MSRP !!
Orncar: (13 miniatures plus Aquilla case) £73
263 points
Pack content:
1 x Beorn (1 blister)
6 x Unmann (2 blisters)
2 x Docga (1 blister)
1 xEotan (1 blister)
3 x Grymann (1 blister)

Vaettir: (16 miniatures plus Aquilla case) £62
263 Points
Pack content:
1 x Huntawalu (1 blister)
6 x Varriers (2 blisters)
2 x Varbres (1 blisters)
1 x Vstonin (1 blister)
6 x Elvspon (2 blisters)

Britanan: (22 miniatures plus Aquilla case) £73
268 points
Pack content:
1 x Guard (1 blister)
12 x Trooper (4 blisters)
3 x Grenadier (1 blister)
4 x Dragoon (2 blisters)
2 x Marksmen (1 blister)

Why thank you

But yeah I am guessing the old one was listing the blisters, but (it might just be me...) it helps to know what you are getting .

I look the look of all three bundles and with hope of moving some money about towards the end of the month am most likely to pick up the Britanan one and maybe after that the Vaettir a month after.

So, I guess that means you want us to do them then?

Of course! I have been saving up to make a start on Relics :p

Ok folks, Christmas is just around the corner (I’d like an IPad if anyone is feeling generous) and no doubt you are all looking for what you get your other half to buy for you.

Well, you lucky things, we know how Relics is going to be your next addiction and we want to make the jump to Relics as easy as possible. So, is it coincidence that today is the day our new Relics Army Packs go on pre-order and will be shipping first week in December???? Ummm, no. OK, yes.

You can find them in the pre-order section of the store:

PRE-ORDER!!!

The army packs come in two varieties for each faction:

The first is the Canned Army which are army deals that come packaged in our ‘oh so very unique’ and extremely popular packaging solution of ring pull cans. The next step up from the Starter Sets, the Canned Armies are perfect for jumping into Relics feet first. Each Canned Army provides the player with 6-7 units including models that introduce the Magic and Command rules, producer a fuller more encompassing games.

Each Canned Army costs and contains:

Britanan £50 - 22 models!!
Orcnar £50 - 13 models!!
Vaettir £39 - 16models!!

The second army deal is the Army in a Bag. The army is the same as that in the Canned Army, but it comes with a KR Multicase Aquilla 4 figure case. So not only do you get an army, you get the protection needed to keep your gorgeous paint job safe.

Each pack details are:

Britanan £72 - 22 models plus KR Multicase Aquilla 4 with enough slots to 80 normal figures (30mm base)!!
Orcnar £72 - 13 models Plus KR Multicase Aquilla 4 with enough slots to 15 large figures (40mm base) and 40 normal figures (30mm base)!!
Vaettir £60 - 16 models Plus KR Multicase Aquilla 4 with enough slots to 15 large figures (40mm base) and 40 normal figures (30mm base)!!

So, plenty to choose from and fill your Christmas list with!! Go on, you know you need too!!!

PRE-ORDER!!!

Skimming over this thread i am very impressed with your hands on interaction with fans/potential customers. There's no bs and you are very good at keeping people updated.

Really wish you the best of luck with Relics, as in my opinion you deserve every success.

I actually feel guilty that i am not particularly interested in your product

It's easy to do as long as I keep in mind that I am a customer of other companies. So I do what I want them to do.

Do you have a wargaming blog? Do you do reviews? Do you have a good monthly traffic (3000+ per month)

We’re looking for a ‘few’ gaming blogs to add to our reviewers network and regularly send products to for review. places are seriously limited at this time. If you are interested, email us (contact at torgaming.co.uk) with your blogs url, figures for monthly visitor numbers and why we should add you to our new reviewers network.

We're very close to releasing the pdf of the rules in their official first edition.

In the mean time, I've been badgered into showing some previews!! Enjoy.

Linky-fu

We've gone for a clean, uncluttered almost 'Old Skool' design that I think is actually quiet refreshing (not to mention very printer friendly!!).

The Rule book PDF is quite impressive.

Thanks for the preview

"Canned Army" is kind of a funny way of putting the combined deals but it looks cool...

I'm hoping to get some time this weekend to take a look at Clash and add think about new bits/amendments.

If you have any feedback, now is a great time to let us know about it so we can take it on board for the next revision.

We call the army deals 'Canned Armies' because they are packaged in cans.

The time has come, there is no escaping it, Relics is here and the fun starts now!

The first edition (PN) of Relics is now available for download. 76 pages of rules and lists to make your gaming a hell of a lot more fun and tactical.

Get Them Now!!

You’re possibly wondering what ‘PN’ is. Well, we intended for the Nuem to be in the first edition, but they have fallen behind. We did not see a reason to delay the rest though. So ‘PN stands for ‘Pre-Nuem’. When the Nuem are released, we will remove PN from the cover and maybe give some models away as a celebration.

Lay out for everything looks amazing.

The fluff and back stories are rather brilliant too!

The Nuem beta 2nd edition list is now available for download and trying out

linky fu

As usual, we would love to hear your thoughts on the list.

It would appear Relics is continuing its steady progress of making itself available via FLGS and FOLGS as we have the wonderful announcement of two new UK based retailers.

First up we have Wayland Games (http://www.waylandgames.co.uk). You may have heard of them before. If not, what the..? Anyway, Wayland Games were quick to see the light and are now stocking the range on their on-line store.

Second in the ‘have seen the light’ category we have Square Orange Games (http://squareorangegames.co.uk/). Based in Gloucester, this online retailer offers some great ranges (especially now Relics is there!!) at some great prices! And that’s not to mention their free standard shipping on all order, no matter the destination!!! YIKES!
Check them both out if you haven’t done so before:

If you are a FLGS/FOLGS and you would like to stock Relics, you can contact us for further details, no matter what country you are in. We will either help you directly or give you details of a local distributor.

Or maybe you are a distributor who wants to carry our range and offer it to your retail network? get in touch.

http://www.torgaming.co.uk/rd/retailers/

A new blog post about some new products we have coming up. All of which are not related to Relics!! Shock Horror.

http://www.torgaming.co.uk/rd/there-is-more-to-tor-gaming-than-just-relics/

Mid November we were informed by Darklord over at the WAMP-Forums that Relics had been short-listed for their WAMP Awards 2011 in the ‘Best Range’ and as you can see, we are in a category that has some seriously strong competition:

Banelegions – Malestom Games
George RR Martin’s Masterwork’s – Darksword Miniatures
Hordes – Privateer Press
Kingdom Death – Kingdom Death
Malifaux – Wyrd Miniatures
Relics – Tor Gaming
Relic Knights – Sodapop Miniatures
Smog 1888 – Smart Max
Star Wars – Knight Models
Warlord Saga – Andrea Miniatures

So, whilst we were very grateful to all the people who nominated us that resulted in the short-listing, we also expected to not be placed once all the voting is over. After all, just look again at the list of the other ranges in the category.

So, you can imagine our surprise and amazement to discover today that we had in fact been awarded the bronze position! The voting must have been tight as it was a joint position with the Darksword Miniatures range.

We were beaten by the amazing Banelegions and Smog 1888 ranges, and a well deserved Gold and Silver for them. But to have beaten some of the other ranges in the groups is just amazing for us.

I’d like to thank each and every one of the people who voted for Relics. You have no idea just how much it means to us to have been short-listed, let alone placed!

Thank you!

Hey all,

On our blog, you can find pics of the first busts that will be making an appearance in our new range which will be introduced in 2012.

http://www.torgaming.co.uk/rd/coming-soon/

You will no doubt be pleased to hear the Relics 'Armies in a Bag' sets are back in stock. Not only do you get a Relics army but you also get a KR Multicase Aquilla 4 bag to keep them in. w00t

Vaettir: http://bit.ly/z12eHF
Britanan: http://bit.ly/zSRvAQ
Orcnar: http://bit.ly/za14Fk

What with Christmas and New Years finally out of the way, it’s all hands back to the pumps and time we had our next releases.

This month we have new released for the Britanan, Orcnar and Vaettir, so no-one is left out. And not only that, but they are all new commanders!!

Next Month, there will be alternative poses for all three releases, but enough of that, this months packs are available to pre-order for £4.80 per pack.

What you waiting for?

Bit of a treble wammy with news today for you all!!

First of all, we now have more designs available on our Zazzle store on T-Shirts, mugs etc etc. You can find the details of this, and see the pics of the new designs on this blog post:

http://www.torgaming.co.uk/rd/new-merchandise-on-our-zazzle-store/

Secondly, the Relics pdf is now officially available form Wargame Vault. We have a ‘starter’ rule set that is deisnged for using with our Starter Cans. This is fre but does not include such rules as morale, command, magic etc and only contains the profiles from the Starter cans.

In addition to that, we have the full rules with profiles for all the currently available models available for purchase as a pdf for $10!

You can check them out here

But, not only that!!

We are also submitting the book for Print on Demand (PoD) and if this is authorised, you will be able to purchase it for $22.50. There will be a bundle deal of the PoD and PDF at the same time for a $5 discount.

But what if I buy the pdf now??? Fear not, we have an ven better deal for the ‘early birds’ amongst you.

If you buy the PDF copy now, before the PoD copy is available, the early bird offer will see you receive a $10 discount on the PoD copy when it becomes available. That means you effectively get the PDF copy for free when you buy the PoD copy. Bazinga!

You can find the full details of this offer here: http://www.torgaming.co.uk/rd/special-offer-for-early-bird-pdf-purchasers/

Packed with 103 pages, this soft colour cover, b&w interior book brings you the first edition of the Relics table top wargame in print version and can be yours for the lovely price of £18

52 profiles - Across those 4 factions, you get a whopping 52 profiles!

I have to say that this is such an exciting time for me. Many times I though we would never get here and many sleepless nights I have had on the journey to this point. But we are here now and it is an amazing feeling!

The book will be on pre-order some point Monday, so get ready people because Relics is finally here!!!!!

Awesome! The main question is when is going to be sent out for delivery?
