Creating a key art piece for Shroudfall is about more than bringing two armies together on a canvas. Finding the right setting, composition and atmosphere takes time. How do you capture the relentless advance of the Bloodthorne and the fiery determination of the Kazyr in a single image? Every detail matters, from the positioning of individual warriors to the colours and lighting that bring the battle to life. It's a process of exploring ideas, refining details and finding tha

Shroudwardens! The last few weeks have been busy. If you follow our blog, you’ve probably noticed the ungodly number of posts we’ve been publishing lately. Who has the time to read all that?! But fear not! I’m here to save you some scrolling and bring you up to speed on all the important stuff. Whether you’re planning to pick up the Kazyr soon or are heading to Essen SPIEL this week, here’s everything you need to know.

Some warriors bring the fire. Others make sure it never goes out. Our Kazyr Rules Focus series continues! With Prince Kaelith, the Flareborn Reavers and the Emberwrought Warden introduced, it's time to meet the fourth additional unit joining the faction alongside the Kazyr Skirmish Pack. Meet the Flamekeeper. While other Kazyr warriors charge into battle or hold the line against overwhelming odds, the Flamekeeper has a different job: keeping the Cinders burning and making sur

Our Kazyr Rules Focus series continues with the second Emberwrought unit. Meet the Emberwrought Warden. Where the Emberwrought Tyrant is all about delivering devastating attacks, the Warden takes a different approach. This towering construct is designed to protect its fellow warriors, absorb incoming attacks and make life considerably more difficult for enemies trying to break through your lines. But don't mistake its defensive role for a lack of offensive potential. Armed

After introducing the second Kazyr Essence Weaver, it's now time to take a look at the additional units joining the faction with its first wave of releases. And we're starting with the Flareborn Reavers.

The Kazyr Skirmish Pack lineup is complete, but we're far from finished! Four additional units are joining the faction for its initial release, and over the coming days, we'll take a closer look at each of them in our Rules Focus series. And we're starting with royalty.

Why fight on your opponent's terms when you can set the battlefield on fire? The Kazyr Rules Focus series continues with the character unit included in the Kazyr Skirmish Pack: Serelleth, the Ember Matriarch.

Our look at the upcoming Kazyr army continues with another model included in the Kazyr Skirmish Pack: the Emberwrought Tyrant. Where the Flareborn Skirmishers rely on speed and positioning, the Tyrant takes a somewhat more straightforward approach. It is a hulking fire elemental encased in armour, carrying an enormous Embersteel Sword and generally solving problems by hitting them very, very hard.

Our look at the upcoming Kazyr army continues with one of the units included in the Kazyr Skirmish Pack: the Flareborn Skirmishers. These elite warriors are exactly what their name suggests. They are skirmishers built around speed, positioning and choosing their fights. With several ways to move both during and outside their activation, they can quickly contest important parts of the battlefield, harass enemy models and be surprisingly difficult to pin down.

The Kazyr are approaching! Leading up to their release at Essen SPIEL, we’ll take a closer look at some of their rules and how they will impact the world of Shroudfall. In our first Kazyr Rules Focus, we’re taking a closer look at Zyrena, the Cinderforged Champion.

When we started working on the fifth Shroudfall faction, we knew one thing very early: We wanted fire. That sounds simple enough. Fire has been part of fantasy games forever. Fireballs, burning swords, flaming monsters ... you don't exactly have to explain to someone what a fire faction is supposed to do. And that was precisely the problem.

For most people in Astira, the Ashen Crown is not a welcoming place. Smoking mountains, obsidian plains and rivers of basalt shape a land that never seems to stand still. For the Kazyr, it is home. Zyrena, the Cinderforged Champion, leads the Kazyr from the front, carrying the fire of Veyr-Ashaal into battle. I wonder what her Leadership might be? They call it Veyr-Ashaal, the Crown That Breathes. Generations of life among fire and Essence have shaped their culture around one
