The Bladelands: a vast and unexplored wilderness shrouded within a mantle of
ferocious magical gales called Bladestorms. Into these wilds comes a host of
adventurers, warriors, pirates, explorers, prospectors, freebooters, traders,
and settlers. Here, a battle can decide the fate of a budding tribe or nation.
A small group can conquer and forge an empire. It's an ideal setting for a miniatures
game.
Bladestorm is a "skirmish-style" miniatures game. Each figure represents one person
or creature. Simple and fast-paced, it's a raw, hard-edged game with an emphasis
on action and color. Bladestorm is designed to stand alone; you never need a
referee. Use the Bladestorm rules to fight minatures battles set in virtually
any fantasy world.
Fun and easy to play, Bladestorm capturess a dangerous, chaotic, unexplored quality
- the same sensation Cortez felt when he stepped off the boat in Mexico and banged
back his first Margarita. It's a lot of bang for your buck.
Bladestorm is fully supported by a complete line of miniatures from Grenadier Models. Based on ICE's designs, these unique fantasy miniatures are among the best ever made. Tough, hard-edged, and dramatic, these miniatures are cool to paint and fun to use. Look for them at better game and hobby stores throughout the known world.
