What else has Michael Anderson sculpted for Mierce?

Pretty sure he's a former GW sculptor (went by Mike Anderson then):

If you scroll down to anything tagged "MA", it's his work. There's a fair bit.

Notable for our purposes:
*Chaos - Bestigors (MA)
*Chaos - Gors (MA)
*Chaos - Malagor (MA)
*Chaos - Ghorros Warhoof (MA)

Darklands is a tabletop skirmish wargame in which you command the hosts of man and beast that your ancestors once did for glory, power or simple survival!

To play Darklands with our fantastic range of miniatures, you need the rules - and whilst the full Darklands: First Edition rulebook will not be printed until later on in 2015, you can play the game right now with the rules presented here as a download or from our Rules and Musters Downloads page - which is constantly being updated.

http://www.mierce-miniatures.com/index.php?act=drm

As well as the Darklands: First Edition rules, you'll also need the Savage Hordes download which combines the Muster Rules (which show you how to build a host) and the various Kindred Musters (which give you all the warrior profiles for every single miniature we have produced or will produce).



Last updated - 2nd October 2015

The Darklands: First Edition rules are (just about) here!

We have been working very hard to put the Darklands: First Edition of the rules together for you as a PDF download, and whilst this has taken a bit longer than we'd hoped they're now (almost) ready for public consumption. Note that these downloadable rules do not yet have any lovely illustrations or many example graphics, which will be of great use to a newcomer to Darklands; they will appear in the full rules.

The rules are in their final stage - correcting errors and proof-reading, mainly - and we just haven't had time to get the last few actions (Dive, Swoop, Drop, Bind and Unbind) and reactions (Engagement and Counter-Engage) sorted yet - but we hope to have those ready for you by the end of next week, at which point we'll do a proper update before Rob goes on holiday and maybe a sneak peek at a couple of pages of the full rulebook.

Artworked for Print

The rules are also at the stage where we have passed them to our artworker to get them ready for print. This will necessarily take a few weeks, but we are hopeful that by the end of October or early November (when Rob gets back from his holiday) they will be ready to send to the printers.

Darklands: First Edition download

You can download the rules that are available now in one document:

mierce-miniatures.com/darklands_first_edition/darklands_first_edition_00.00_rules_v0.1.pdf

We've been a little lazy and simply merged the individual .pdf files you'll find elsewhere on this update, so the page numbers don't work - but at least you don't have to mess around...

Note, too, that these downloadable sections of the rules do not yet have any lovely illustrations or example graphics, which will be of great use to a newcomer to Darklands. We aim to have at least one set of example graphics for each action or reaction!

Hunt down grammatical errors!

In the meantime, feel free to hunt down typos, incorrectly numbered headers, passages that don't make sense or any other grammatical errors and e-mail us at kickstarter@mierce-miniatures.com. The more people that scour the rulebook for these errors, the more we'll find!

Printing the rules

Once all of the rules are sorted, we will begin converting it all into print format with some nice graphics and images, and it will look similar in style to the Darklands: QuickStarter rules.

We do hope to have completed this task by the end of September and have it at the printers sometime in October, with a print date of "before Christmas", we hope!



Now, as mentioned above, we have something new for you all - and that is the Darklands: Savage Hordes download, which combines the Muster Rules and various Kindred Musters into one document.

We can neither confirm nor deny that Savage Hordes will be produced in book form in 2016...

Darklands: Savage Hordes download

You can download Savage Hordes in one document:

Darklands: Savage Hordes - v1.1 - updated 2nd October

mierce-miniatures.com/darklands_first_edition/darklands_savage_hordes_v1.01.pdf

We've been a little lazy and simply merged the individual .pdf files for the muster rules and kindred musters you'll find elsewhere individually on this update, but the eventual "proper" document will look rather better!

£32,500 - Freemen of Scīrbrōc, Ceorl Unit

With the Anglecynn Ceorl Bowmen on the horizon let's give you more bang for your buck with the addition of the Freemen of Scīrbrōc ! Set at £32,500, these lads are alternates of the Ceorl Bowmen and give the Anglecynn general some much-needed cheap infantry!



Ceorl - pronounced "Churl" - are versatile infantry able to use sword, axe or spear (along with a shield!) in battle or swap those to become bowmen... or even scouts. That means these are jack-of-all trades infantry, and you shouldn't take your Anglecynn host without some!

You can purchase the Ceorl in units of 10x warriors with command, 20x warriors with command or just 10x warriors, at the metal or resin prices indicated. You'll be able to purchase them as swordsmen, axemen or spearmen. Their prices are set at 10% off the eventual RRP, simply because they're being squeezed between hosts!

What are you waiting for? Get purchasing those Ceorl!

We mailed you back the other day - Sep 30th - have you not received it? It doesn't look like it's bounced from our end. Check your spam folder...
