Awaken Realms Painting Studio: The Edge Kickstarter Preview


Awaken Realms Painting Studio: Come closer and dive into the grim post-apocalyptic steampunk universe - see origins of new adventure and help to forge it.

The Edge is planned to be a standalone universe with a long term development plan. We are keeping consistency in all of our miniatures and story. We are dedicated to create a great universe with compelling story and grim, steampunk environment, supported by well-thought and fun to play mechanics and the best quality models. Models will be set to 28mm scale and will range from smaller infantry through beasts and vehicles to huge constructs and gigantic monsters. Everything will be cast in quality resin to ensure highest level of detail. 

The world of The Edge was shattered by a cataclysm ("Day of Judgement" as the Chapter calls it) that put humanity on its knees. When everything seemed lost, the remnants of the population were united by a priest of The One - Monotheistic technological God. By using remaining crystals from the cataclysm, the priest created technologically advanced machines and led humanity from its knees to a new golden era.


But time of peace did not last for long. It turned out that crystals were not the only thing left by meteors – deep in craters small portals had been laying hidden, waiting patiently. Demons emerged from them and an invasion that flooded the land begun. At first, it was not even a fight – it was a slaughter, a perfect invasion plan executed step by step without a fail. 

After some time Chapter was able to produce military technology that made the fight possible – but even aided by the powerful Angels of Death, believed to be the avatars of The One himself, they were sill losing one battle after another. Humans were adapting, developing new deadly technologies in haste however, even with all of their efforts, the Demons were still undefeated.

Then a certain event took place that no one was expecting, after one of the bloody battles, under unusual circumstances a new being came to life. Neither human nor machine, a creature that started feasting on the battlefield absorbing both flesh and mechanical parts, constantly evolving. 

Faceless creatures, without soul, emotion or mind – wandering through land and consuming everything in their way. They began to spread without any control and even if at first ignored by both Demons and Chapter, at one point they became a force that changed the whole face of the conflict. Faceless were one of the reasonsDemon invasion under the walls of Eld-Hain was broken, right before the first human refuge that was about to fall. All the communication attempts with them failed so far.

Awaken Realms Painting Studio: More The Edge Miniatures Previewed


Awaken Realms Painting Studio has previewed these miniatures for their upcoming The Edge game. Awaken Realms is created SF and Fantasy buffs who turned their passion for figure painting into their way of life. We spent years perfecting our skills and creating Warhammer (and others) miniatures. And one day, we asked ourselves - would it possible for us to create our very own world and figures? This is something we always dreamed about, and we would like to share our passion with others. And that's how "The Edge" project was born. More information here.

Awaken Realms Painting Studio: New Skirmish Game The Edge Previewed


Awaken Realms Painting Studio is announcing their first skirmish game called The Edge! Reading through their thorough press release I was immediately intrigued by the interesting background for their setting which is heavily inspired by the unsual mix of steampunk, post-apocalypse and even some medieval age inspiration! 


Step into the journey into the brutal post apocalyptic world of The Edge – original universe that was created from mix of few aesthetic inspirations: post apocalypse, steampunk and classical medieval age. Most importantly The Edge will be a wargaming skirmish game combining best elements of wargaming, card games, story and design with care models.

The Edge will feature a world destroyed by a cataclysm – huge meteor strikes. Humans that stood on the edge of extinction was united by the priest of The One – technologically advanced God. Thanks to using the power of crystals (left by the meteors) they were able to created amazing technology. Under the ruling of authoritative priests they returned and surpass their old glory. Everything changed when the Demons, conquerors of worlds came from the portals hidden in the meteor strike craters. Brutal war have just started and in one of the battles something totally unexpected happened – from dead human body, piece of machines and crystals power a new being has come alive – first Faceless creature, devouring everything on its way, evolving and fighting with both Chapter and Demons.

Keep an eye out for further updates here on Wargame News and Terrain as you won't want to miss the further development of this exciting looking game! In the next post we will take a closer look at the first miniature renders!
