JOIN THE GREATEST BATTLE

You are back on the remote planet of Valhalla, a once peaceful world now torn apart by evil. Dynastic rulers known as Valkyrie are fighting to control the wellsprings, mystical fountains that bestow mighty powers – but can also bring on the curse of frightening visions of total destruction.  Esoteric warriors from across time and space battle for power and glory. Will they save their world, or face utter annihilation?

HEROSCAPE: AGE OF ANNIHILATION transports you to the next era of the popular expandable miniature wargaming system.  It includes stunningly detailed miniatures that allow you to create your own rich world. Using modular tiles, you build sprawling battlefields on which to play out conflicts between powerful and unconventional factions pulled not only from Earth but also from other planets across the galaxy.

The game features:

  • 71 finely detailed miniatures, in molded colors that denote their affiliations.
  • 46 army cards, providing game rules for your miniatures.
  • An expandable hex-based modular tile terrain system, including 74 base pieces and 68 wall terrain pieces, 9 jungle terrain pieces, with which you can build varied, multilevel landscapes for your battles.
  • 5 original factions designed for this game, each with unique skills and strategies. Play as the Dryan Lifeborne Order, the Nemesis War Brood, the Dawn Raider Syndicate, the Clockwork Combine, or the Ironclad Collective!
  • Customizable armies in which each figure is given a point value, allowing you to choose which units to include in your army to suit your own playstyle.
  • 20 game scenarios specially created for AGE OF ANNIHILATION.

Pairs with a companion app complete with army builder and battlefield design tool.

Every component of this incredible game system is fully backward- and forward-compatible. If this HasLab campaign is successful, we may continue the expansion of the HeroScape universe.

Campaign book

HeroScape Age of Annihilation is a game of thrilling warfare where the players create not only the armies they bring to the table but the battlefield itself. The rules included in the Vanguard Edition feature two versions: the Basic Game which is excellent for learning the fundamental rules and introducing the game to new players, and the Master Level Game which offers further strategic depth and customization.

Build your scenario. Draft your army. Unleash epic battles!

When you back this HasLab campaign, you’ll also receive two exclusive figures only available through this HasLab campaign: the Thyraxis Dragoon and Scavorith, Lord of Ruin. These figures will not be available after the conclusion of this HasLab campaign, so back now to enlist these vicious combatants!

Scavorith, Lord of Ruin

Surging into battle, Scavorith menaces its foes with up to three attacks in a single turn - but risks wounding itself!

 

Thyraxis Dragoon

With a maddening chitter that echoes through the battlefield the Thyraxis Dragoon can alter enemy activations and disrupt battle plans!

MODULAR TERRAIN FOR ULTIMATE FLEXIBILITY

Build and stack countless battlefields

Assortment of hex tiles for quick assembly

HeroScape features a unique battlefield creation system using modular hexagonal terrain pieces that allow for a battlefield only limited by the amount of terrain you have. These pieces feature terrain such as grass, rock, sand, water, ruins, trees, and other realistic types of landscape. Tiles of different sizes can be connected and stacked on top of each other to expand not only the base area of the war zone but its height as well. Best of all, the design of the battlefield will affect the game! Units can gain bonuses or penalties based on differences in terrain height, the types of terrain may influence unit movement, and much more. Creating a unique battlefield is an exciting part of HeroScape.

THE FACTIONS OF HEROSCAPE AGE OF ANNIHILATION

Five original factions vie for control of Valhalla’s wellsprings, each aligned with one or more Valkyries. The units included in Age of Annihilation offer distinct warfare tactics giving each faction a unique feel on the battlefield.

DRYAN LIFEBORNE ORDER

Mystical weavers of the magical energy of both life and death

Dwellers in the dark forests for countless eons, the Dryan are one with the spirits of nature and the etheric beasts who also call these ancient quiet places home. Each a master of the arcane, the mages of the Dryan Lifebourne Order fight as individuals rather than squads. Though few in number, they bolster the ranks of their armies by calling on familiars to unleash a ferocious feral rage upon their enemies. Together, a handful of Lifebourne magi can be worth dozens of well-trained soldiers.

Xenithrax the Soulweaver

Marachott, Mind Whisperer

Ewashia, Mistress of Tides

Girushia, Grove Keeper

Haluchott, Corruptor of Beasts

Halushia, Scion of the Wild

Onshu the Welkineye

Chana the Zenithwing

Raakchott, Desecrator of Death

Vrono the Brambletoth

NEMESIS WAR BROOD

Skilled and strategic bioengineered insectoid warriors.

The NEMESIS WAR BROOD have evolved over millennia of constant assault on their home planet into a skilled martial culture. Their crude appearance belies a shrewd and highly advanced intelligence and disciplined battle strategy that have allowed them to protect themselves from their enemies and uphold their society.  The units in which they live are kept hidden from outsiders, and it is believed that the members of the War Brood who are encountered on Valhalla are part of a specialized warrior caste who expertly employ the most sophisticated military tactics on the battlefield.

Oathbound Legionnaires

Oathbound Phalanx

Festering Honor Guard

Queen Maladrix the Conqueror

DAWN RAIDER SYNDICATE

Fiercely independent mercenaries who feed on both the spoils of war and the challenge of battle.

Led by a charismatic council of captains, the members of the Dawn Raider Syndicate answer to no Valkyrie, refusing to pledge allegiance to any of Valhalla’s warring factions. A disparate group driven by their own personal motivations, they work for whichever side pays them more. Often first found lurking in the shadows of an advance, they engage hard, make their impact felt, and fight like madmen.

Crimson Widow

Fia Bonny, the Void Siren

First Officer Bok-Bur-Na

Admiral EJ 1-M

Exiles of the Sundered Sea

Dreadnauts of New Tortuga

Dorim the Bulkhead Brawler

Knaves of the Silver Scimitar

Cornelius Breech, the Derelict Prince

Kilian Vane III

CLOCKWORK COMBINE

A diverse peace-loving society forced to embrace war.

The Clockwork Combine is a pluralistic culture born in pacifism and pragmatism, who have by necessity had to learn the techniques and principles of war in order to save themselves from total extinction. Clever and intelligent, the members of the Combine – farmers and artists as well as engineers and scientists – came together to develop amazing technologies that allowed them to deploy troops quickly, manage aggressive aerial insertions, repair equipment while under attack - and ultimately triumph in battle.

Air Marshal Zed Nesbitt

Imperator Kayne

Wing Commander Tuck Harrigan

Vorid Glide Strikers

Vorid Burrowbreaker

Knight Primus Adelbern

Knight Adjutor Oberon

Ordo Borealis

Frostclaw Paladins

IRONCLAD COLLECTIVE

Cold, calculating soldiers who employ sophisticated cybernetics to play the game of war.

 

The Ironclad Collective wage war using the precise logic of their data cogitators and the hard steel of their weapons systems. Over generations they have focused relentlessly on perfecting their methods of destruction. Every battlefield movement is calculated, every strategy is dissected before the first shots are fired. Members of the Collective reflect their harsh and unsentimental philosophies of war in grotesque death masks that trigger nightmarish fear and despair in their enemies – surely among the cruelest of psychological terror tactics.

Iron Lich Viscerot

Hellforge Mandukor

Necrotech Wraithriders

In addition to the five factions, Age of Annihilation includes seven Kyrie, the winged natives of Valhalla and champions of their respective Valkyries. Some are good while some are evil, and they may join battle with factions of similar beliefs. Below are concept images for the included Kyrie, with rendered examples to come soon.
