The gameplay centres on achieving quest goals, emphasizing manoeuvring and controlling space around them. The Action Reaction system ensures constant player engagement, making each game a dynamic experience lasting about an hour or less.
Additionally, the game provides a cooperative and solo experience through AI cards, enabling it to control hostile creatures for you and your friends to face together.
Eldfall Chronicles Backstory and Lore
Eldfall Chronicles unfolds in Calad, a mysterious realm where history is veiled in secrecy. The world is shaped by four major forces, occasionally sparking border skirmishes when ancient secrets emerge. The north holds the Empire of Soga, a feudal and militaristic society, while the south features the advanced sun-worshipping Helian League. To the east, the Coalition of Thenion is a roguish, hedonistic union dedicated to moon worship, and in the west, the Sand Kingdoms thrive as a magocracy valuing knowledge and skill.
Next-Gen Miniatures
Of course, no miniatures wargame is truly complete without the hobby aspect. Eldfall Chronicles features high-quality, next-generation miniatures crafted from Unicool hard plastic, a new type of resin. Enabling them to possess exceptional detail and dynamism while maintaining durability, the miniatures animate characters on the tabletop through dynamic poses, distinctive styles, and an impressive level of detail.

Northern Wind – Stand-alone Solo/Cooperative Expansion
The tale of Calad evolves continuously through Chronicles, a series of narrative-driven quests expanding the world, factions, and allowing players to script its history on their own gaming tables.
The first of the Chronicles is the Eldfall Chronicles: Northern Wind, a stand-alone expansion, a narrative dungeon crawler. While fully cross compatible with the skirmish game Eldfall Chronicles, it includes a multitude of ways for you to customize your heroes, from levelling up, to finding unique equipment to learning how to cooperate with your fellow heroes and execute a series of combo moves!
Successfully funded in June 2023 through Kickstarter, Northern Wind's pre-orders (late-pledges) are open for those eager to join the adventure.
