Forge of Destiny



Welcome to the world of Forge of Destiny.

Forge of Destiny is a 32mm SciFi miniatures wargame played on modular tiles.






When bullets ricochet from stones behind which soldiers are cowering in terror…
When towering monsters drop dead, riddled with holes and plasma burns…
When lightning-fast charges topple skillfully placed gunlines, washing fortifications red with blood… When orders barked through coms are unable to break through the cacophony of battle…

In each such situation, a single action, be it a glorious last stand, a noble sacrifice or a skillful headshot… can change the course of combat.

Forge of Destiny is the game in which EVERY ACTION COUNTS.




FoD is fast, brutal and deep in tactical possibilities. It is played with 32mm metal miniatures on a randomly generated battlefield that consists of tiles called Grids. However, use of 2-D battlefield does not mean that you will be fighting on an open plain - thanks to an icon-driven system you will be able to hide your units behind various types of cover, occupy heights or ravines, etc. And if you wish to go even further, you can include into the gameplay mechanics of natural environment of the planet you are fighting over. Since the majority of units and models has only one health point (leaders included!) a tactically-aggressive approach more often than not will win you the day. Battles in FoD can easily be scaled from small skirmishes to massive battles without the need to learn a lot of extra rules.



Will you side with the tradition-focused feline Brakkans and become part of their military culture?
Will you transform into pure energy and explore the sector within a Mirr of the Shattered?
Will you join the Alliance of Colonies and Nations (FALCON), recover from ‘The Collapse’ and lead humanity into a new golden age?
Or will you become part of the symbiotic Children of the Dragon who step by step move further away from their human legacy?



FoD is a game by New Destiny Games, which was founded by Pavel Popov and Sergey Tikhonov from Russia and David Saunders from the UK. All three are very experienced when it comes to different parts of a gaming company. They wanted to create a game that captures the essence of the Golden Age of SciFi (like Star Trek, Dune, Stargate, Firefly, etc.) but still brings something new to wargaming.

But first of all they want to create a rich universe and share and grow it together with their gamers.

You might ask yourself "What kind of game is that?" or "Why should I get this Game?"

And you are right!

You just know the pictures and texts we provided you with, but about the game itself you don´t know much.

This will change now!

If you follow this link

http://newdestinygames.com/downloads/

you will get to our download area where you can get the FoD-Print&Play. This set consists of the following
items and allows you to thoroughly test the game as long as you want:

> The game rules and faction rules
> The game cards
> The game board tiles
> The miniatures provided as cut-out versions

The rules and cards are more or less identical to what you will later get in the final version (we will of course listen to your comments and improve both if necessary).
The tiles are smaller than the final version and will be graphically improved (we just wanted maximum visibility of the symbols on the tiles for the P&P), like in the pictures
in the opening post. The miniatures will of course be metal miniatures in the final version and bigger (approx 30-32mm). We wanted to provide you with a version of the
game that is easy to store and transport between games

Falcon



Brakkan



Children of the Dragon



We hope you will enjoy the test games!

Thanks a lot!

Quite some brain-power went into the background and what is revealed on the website and during the upcoming Kickstarter is just the tip of the iceberg.

Which is a good moment to announce the following

The Forge of Destiny Kickstarter will start on Kickstarter in the latter half March.

And to whet your appetite we will today post some pictures of the masters and renders.
The painted miniatures are btw. already the cast retail miniatures, i.e. what you see there is what you will get after the KS

Now for those pictures...

Especially the Brakkans are a design I like, there are not that many feline factions in tabletop
