Chronopia, from Uhrwerk Spiele
Chronopia, Set in a Dark Fantasy Universe.
Chronopia is a dynamic wargame that allows you to play small hero skirmish battles or massive army battles set in a dark fantasy world. Using beautiful miniatures from Uhrwerk-Verlag, you will once again fall into this world. This rulebook focuses on basic rules for 'player versus player' games. In our upcoming releases you will find rules for solo games and games with odd numbers of players, working together against the environment. Something that wargames has never seen before.
In the Dark Fantasy Universe of Chronopia there are eight mighty empires fighting for territory and dominance whilst demons from other realms try to enter the world and take it for themselves. You will take leadership of one of these empires and attempt to forge its destiny through glorious combat.
The battles you'll fight will not only be friendly games but can be reported to our headquarters where we will create a library of data. Every Month we'll inform players how their successes and failures have influenced the world of Chronopia. As time passes and borders change, through the sands of time new factions will appear.

I have been a wargamer for 40 plus years and may have overbought some items in that time . Unless medical science cures old age it is likely that many "projects " may be unfinished......it's time for them to be released into someone else's "project ".
It is going to take several shows to clear the decks so let's start with Britcon!

Pemberlys Scenics
Web: www.pemberleys-scenics.co.uk/
Pemberlys Scenics are launching a new tile system developed to give games a real cinematic feel. The USP of these tiles is that the foam and magnet system virtually eliminates the 'gap' issue between tile that is inherent with this type of layout. Trees and larger vegetation are magnetically attached so you can have as many or as few as you want with each battle.
The system will be further supported with a range of texture paints and basing scatter layers (sold in bulk packs specifically aimed at terrain making) in order to create various fields of battle around the world (as well as alien and fantasy worlds).
The trees are magnetic, so can be 'knocked down' due to explosions or run into by a tank for example, making the scenery dynamic as well during game play!
Launched at Salute! 2025! the full extended range will be available at Britcon, ogether with over 70 lines of flocks and materials (always growing in number) for basing, terrain building and dioramas.
Pemberly will be bringing along a game board themed for North Africa, with large hills creating a raised level, roads, dried river beds, fox holes and more!
