More Info to come…

We are currently playtesting the first expansion to Gnome Hold Sagas, Gnomes: The Skirmish Game.

Gnomes was released earlier on in the year and we have a few little expansions on the way. We are currently testing them out and once we are happy with them we’ll update this with more information.

We have had to push the date for Expansion EX001 back, from August 31st 2024 to February 1st 2025, as we are aware that there is a lot of testing that needs to be done. Hopefully this will be the last push back, but we’ll confirm this closer to the time of release.

Breaching the Rift has come out of development… sort of! What do we mean? Well, we have released the rules for free on our webstore but are still adding sections as we go. We have released the rules for two out of the current four factions slated for release in this version of the game. We are busy checking that everything works rules wise and that the points system for the game is fair. As we release updates we will be adding more and more to the ruleset and with every update you can download it again…. free of charge (unless you decide to choose the donation option which all goes towards improving the game).

A game of small stature, but great scope!

Gnomes started as a fun little idea that I had one Christmas while sat around talking about movies with my wife. The borrowers came up and I mentioned that I had always wanted to do a 1 to 1 scale skirmish game that could be played on any surface, with enough imagination. I had already penned out an idea years before, but by the time I came to make it someone had already beaten me to the mark, and I got disheartened and shelved the idea. However, when talking to my wife I became enthusiastic about the idea again and started to think about how I would go about it. Creatures at the end of the garden had been done, as had Lilliputians and other small humanoids. Being Christmas my inspiration quickly turned to elves… but they didn’t get my imagination going quite as much (and I had done Elves many years before in a stop motion animation called “Junk”). Then it hit me, well… Gnomes are a bit grittier, aren’t they!?. That was it, I was hooked.
