The Last Few Days to Back the Fall of Castograd

There are less than three days left to back the War Scenery’s Fall of Castograd.

Now in its last 60 hours, this cool Kickstarter campaign features a smorgasbord of miniatures and scenery. The miniatures represent spikey, ‘renegade’ versions of a certain group of Germanic guardsman from the 41st millennium. These include a variety of units such as command, veterans, brutes, grunts and heavy weapons; each of which are dynamic and detailed.

Five detailed miniatures stand on black bases, showcasing a variety of characters from the War Scenery’s Fall of Castograd campaign. The figures include a flag bearer with a skull emblem, a drummer with a drum and a chain, and other characters equipped with various weapons and gear, all designed in a spiky, grimdark style. Each miniature features intricate details, emphasizing their dynamic poses and unique attributes.

A collection of ten detailed miniatures stands on black bases, depicting spiky, renegade guardsmen from a grimdark sci-fi setting. Each figure is armed with various weapons, including rifles and a chainsaw, showcasing dynamic poses and distinctive armor adorned with spikes. The miniatures vary in stance and weaponry, emphasizing their roles as command, veterans, and grunts within the unit.

The buildings featured in the campaign—which include various landing platforms, hab units, fortifications and humongous guns—are also sculpted in the grimdark style.

Two detailed 3D-rendered models of ruined buildings are displayed, showcasing a grimdark architectural style. The structures feature broken walls, arched windows, and a mix of stone and metal elements, with visible damage and debris. One model includes a staircase leading to an upper level, while the other has a central tower-like structure, emphasizing the post-apocalyptic aesthetic suitable for tabletop gaming.

The structure has a brown tiled roof and is primarily a muted gray color, with illuminated wall sconces and a central archway connecting two sections. The design includes intricate window details and a variety of textures, enhancing its grimdark aesthetic suitable for a sci-fi setting.

At the time of writing, the campaign has attracted more than £23,000 worth of pledges, thus unlocking various vehicles, perimeter defences, more infantry and more (including a really cool hologram command board and a really big gun!) Add-ons include miniatures from War Scenery’s previous campaigns.

A large, detailed artillery piece is mounted on a flat, rectangular platform with a textured surface. The cannon features a prominent barrel with black and white stripes, a complex mechanical structure, and a staircase leading up to it. The platform is designed with industrial elements, including various panels and lights, emphasizing a grimdark aesthetic suitable for a sci-fi tabletop setting.

The top surface is adorned with vibrant green crystalline structures resembling a cityscape, set against a grid pattern. The design includes an emblem on the side, indicating its thematic connection to a sci-fi universe.

Fall of Castograd ends June 12 at 1:17 PM BST.

Does Swansea get a bad rap? Dylan Thomas backhandedly called it an "ugly, lovely town" a compliment that works when you're the long dead local poet more famous than the charmingly defiant city itself.
