馃憖 Sneak Peek: Season 2 Begins in April!
Enter the Orcish Empire 馃悧馃
With the Domani Republic settled, it's time to explore the wider world of Ternovis. Next month, we are launching Season 2, featuring a new, original take on a classic tabletop faction: The Orcs.
These are not your standard mindless fantasy villains. They are a tragic, complex, and wildly dangerous society.
馃摐 The Lore: The Price of Survival
Centuries ago, the Orcs fled a dying world, driven out by world-ending aberrations. Their exodus to Ternovis was a miracle of survival, made possible by a desperate pact between their Shamans and their greatest Warrior-Commanders. But the magic that opened the path to this new world exacted a terrible, mysterious toll.
The brilliant warriors who led the charge were forever altered by the crossing. Their sharp, tactical minds were clouded, leaving behind only raw, untamed fury.
Now, their society is divided:
The Warriors: Once the mastermind generals of their people, they are now explosive forces of nature, banished to the wilds by the Shamans to hunt monsters and protect the tribes. (Oh, and Orc women fight right alongside the men on the front lines!)
The Shamans: The new rulers. They try to fit in with Elves and Humans by copying their aristocracy... poorly. Expect gaudy jewelry, misunderstood high-fashion, and a completely chaotic blend of tribal aesthetics and opulence!
The Mixed Communities: Hybrids (Half-Orc/Elf, Half-Orc/Dwarf) who reject the warrior lifestyle to seek peace, creating groundbreaking innovations in the melting pot of Ternovis.
馃帹 The Art Direction
We went wild for this season. The visual keywords?
Celtic aesthetics + Bronze Age Armor + Dinosaurs.
Think tartans, kilts, and Mycenaean lamellar armor, paired with warriors riding massive prehistoric beasts across rugged, Canary Island-inspired cliffs.
馃拵 Combined Tier Season 2 Perks!
A new season means a new massive terrain build and a new loyalty reward for our Combined Tier members!
1锔忊儯 Collectible Terrain Diorama: Grimwing Cliff Nesting Grounds
Over the next three months (April, May, June), Combined members will receive interlocking pieces to build a towering, rugged cliffside diorama. This is the sacred nesting ground of the Grimwings (massive aerial reptiles), complete with treacherous peaks and Orcish walkways. Part 1 drops in April!
2锔忊儯 The Season 2 Epic Monster Reward
Stay subscribed for the full 3-month season and you will receive another massive, exclusive Dragon miniature to add to your hoard!
(We already have a few dragons in our catalog... Drop a comment on our Discord and guess what COLOR this new dragon will be!)
鈿旓笍 Wargaming Tier: Part 1 Preview (April)
For the first month of Season 2, we are establishing the core of the Warrior tribes.
The Roster:
Orc Clansmen: The core "peasants at arms" equipped with spears and javelins.
Orc Stonebreakers: Heavily armored raiders wielding massive weapons. In times of peace, they break rocks in quarries. In war, they break enemy lines.
Orc Beast Riders: Respected warriors riding Great Boars and massive, fiercely loyal Warfangs.
Terrain: 3x Celtic Barrows (perfect for your Oath-Bound to protect!)
(And don't worry, the massive Dinosaur mounts like the Siege Aegisaurus and flying Grimwings are coming later in the season!)
馃幉 RPG Tier: Part 1 Preview (April)
Next month鈥檚 adventure is equal parts hilarious and deeply concerning. Get ready to Break Bad Vibes.
The Adventure: "Money Tree Madness"
You are lured into Happiness Valley, a place where everyone is suspiciously chill, nobody argues, and the vibes are aggressively immaculate. There鈥檚 talk of a tree that literally grows money.
Spoiler: It鈥檚 not money. It鈥檚 a narcotic fruit releasing euphoric spores, and the entire valley is unknowingly addicted.
You鈥檒l meet Kaoru, a charming Foxman presenting his new glowing tree like a tech-startup CEO. He wants to build a "Wellness Brand" (read: Drug Empire). Do you join his grindset? Burn the tree and cause a withdrawal apocalypse? Get scammed at a rigged cup game? Do drugs with a dryad for lore reasons? There are no good endings. Only flavors of consequences.
The Miniatures:
GARGANTUAN Boss: The Ashquake Burrower!
Beasts: Beavergators, Great Boars, and Warfangs.
The NPCs: Kaoru the Foxfolk "CEO", Damiana the permanently-high Dryad, Jib the Tortle Grandma, and the ultimate comedy duo: Korni & Brakk (a Half-Orc-Elf & Orc-Dwarf couple).
Season 2 drops in the first days of April!

Oooh, I like the Dwork. Chapter 1 was well-executed but wasn't my thing, but Chapter 2's looking really promising!
Hah, I'm glad to hear that it sits better with you :D
Someday I'd love to see those world-ending aberrations that the orcs escaped. Love me some aberrations. Good tease here. I especially love the mounted orcs, though curious about saddles.
We'll for sure explore more of that in the future! No saddles there - pure beast handling :D
