Gary Chalk Kickstarter Campaign for Lone Wolf Board Game https://www.projectaon.org/en/blog/2014/11/gary-chalk-kickstarter-campaign-for-lone-wolf-board-game/ Mon, 10 Nov 2014 18:53:05 +0000 http://www.projectaon.org/en/blog/?p=577 lone-wolf-board-game

I just learned that Gary Chalk is doing a Kickstarter campaign to fund a Lone Wolf board game.

You are Lone Wolf, the last of the Kai Lords. Or perhaps you are Prince Pelathar, heir to the throne of Sommerlund. Or maybe you are the infamous Giak warrior Kootak, sent by the Darklords to raze the land. Now you can be all of these … in a hand-painted tabletop wargame.…

Battle for Magnamund is a fantasy wargame for two or more players. Each battle pits good against evil, and the core set sees the Human forces of Sommerlund in war against the Giaks, murderous grey-skinned humanoids bred in the infernal city of the Darklords. Players may control either an entire army or a single brigade on one side at a time. The goal is to allow you to re-create any battle or scenario from the classic Lone Wolf books, and the game comes with pre-made scenarios to start you on your way.

It reminds me of the Ragadorn Alehouse Brawl tabletop game from the Magnamund Companion but seems much more robust and complete. Gary Chalk did the lovely artwork, of course, and the campaign page has a short video interview of Gary, so check it out.

(There’s a longer interview of Gary available as well.)

Gary Chalk’s Gun Dogs https://www.projectaon.org/en/blog/2013/12/gary-chalks-gun-dogs/ Fri, 06 Dec 2013 03:52:38 +0000 http://www.projectaon.org/en/blog/?p=472 gundogs_icon_blog

Gary Chalk and Tin Man Games have released a new gamebook app named Gary Chalk’s Gun Dogs.

So what is Gun Dogs and why should you read it? Jamie first approached us in 2011 and proposed a number of titles in collaboration with Gary. Gun Dogs shone out as something rather special and they both began work designing the world, with Jamie putting down the words and Gary sharpening the pencils and mixing the paints. It takes the traditional fantasy world of magic and monsters and twists it around a little, adding in a semi-renaissance flavour and most importantly the invention of guns! The story sees you charged with treason against the Empire and placed on death row. The Emperor has offered you a choice: die a slow and humiliating death or serve as a Gun Dog, an expendable soldier assigned impossible missions and tethered by a collar. Not just any collar mind you, but a magical device around your neck that will choke you to death if you disobey your orders. The story takes you across The Empire from Lentica to your destination at Fort Wylde, on a mission in which you meet many strange inhabitants of the world and visit bustling cities and dangerous forests.

More information available on the Tin Man Games website.
