I see- well I guess we must have just been luckier in our own campaigns! 🙂

For Dracula’s America, I’ve certainly tried to maintain as level a playing-field between successful Posses and less successful ones as possible; so hopefully that kind of thing shouldn’t be too much of an issue…

@Torros: Out of interest, what were your own issues with Mordheim and Necromunda?

Glad to hear it! The campaign system will indeed be familiar to players of Frostgrave, Mordheim, Necromunda etc (those are my favourite kind of games!)- however, unlike Frostgrave all your models can gain experience and skills and go up in Rank (and suffer lasting injuries)! You also have the chance of running into Encounters between […]

Hey folks!
Just a few days to go until the Nickstarter finishes- and there’s just a few hundred to go until everybody gets a free goat-sucking Chupacabra! 🙂

The Nickstarter is now underway! A couple of the ‘spend-goals’ have been met, including a free Jackalope model for everybody involved! 🙂

So, that wraps up the Factions of Dracula’s America! If you are interested, the Nickstarter begins on Monday (10th July 2017). Members of the DA Facebook group can get a little head-start on the competition with early-access right now!

The Dark Confederacy: When the Southern armies surrendered at the close of the Civil War, General Jebediah Craine refused to capitulate. Leading the ragged but fanatical remnants of his loyal soldiers deep into the swamps of the South, he vowed revenge on the hated Northerners and their agents, The Congregation. Wresting and twisting the powers […]

The Congregation: Born out of the ‘cold war’ between North and South mid-way through the Civil War, the Congregation are an eclectic mix of ex-slaves, fanatical abolitionists and other desperate folk with access to the power of Vodou! Based in the swamps of the Deep South, they fight a continuous guerrilla war against the growing […]

The Skinwalker Tribes: A loose confederation of Native American Tribes, the Skinwalkers are guided by the mysterious Shaman known as White Raven, who has re-awoken the ancient ability to transform into various Beast Forms in order to combat the encroaching darkness and defend the Balance of Nature… In the game, Skinwalker Tribe Posses are…[Read more]

I too am returning to 40k after a long break- I and my gaming buddies stopped playing around the transition between 4th and 5th editions. Having sold-off all my old armies many moons ago, I picked up two Start Collecting sets of Tau, and I’m partway through painting up the first- the rest of my […]

The Crossroads Cult: In the aftermath of Dracula’s coup, the new President-for-Life began an ambitious Reconstruction project that would allow him to consolidate his power. The centrepiece of this monumental rebuilding of America’s infrastructure was the Transcontinental Railroad. A mysterious (but incredibly wealthy and influential) Tycoon named…[Read more]

The Red Hand Coven: Dracula’s minions can come from any walk of life, and their Posses feature townsfolk, desperate Outlaws, conscripted Union soldiers, and the rich and well-to-do. They even have access to Dracula’s elite Carpathian Guard, armed with their traditional woodsmen’s axes! The Covens of the Red Hand fulfil several roles- from stealthy…[Read more]

The Twilight Order: A secret society of monster-hunters dating back to the Crusades, the Order followed their nemesis Dracula to the New World some thirty years ago. Since then, they have adapted their hunting methods to modern times (though not without considerable friction between the more ‘traditionalist’ Europeans and the new American…[Read more]

Thanks very much!

Speaking of vampires- later on I’ll be posting a little bit about the monster-hunting Twilight Order (no, not that Twilight!) and their arch enemies, the vampiric Red Hand Coven…

Thanks- I really appreciate that!

If you have any questions about SOTW then just drop them below… I’ll also be posting more about the six Factions when I have the chance.

Here are a few of the basic concepts behind the game: It’s a small-model count skirmish game (typically between 3 and 10 models per Posse), that will play on a table between 2’x2′ and 4’x4′ and last around an hour. It also allows between 2 and 8 players to play simultaneously. The game uses D6, […]
