Fabled Realms - Tables By Night
We decided to try something a little different for this weekend.
Check them out the Fabled Realms tables under their new lighting effects.
First Spot Prize! Andy Paints Like Crazy...
Ben has gifted Andy with this rather awesome prize of the hulking Terror.
No doubt this means that Andy is going to have this painted up by Sunday for the world of Fabled Realms. Challenge potentially accepted?
Tinkering Away Assembling Warbands!
We wandered around the studio where folks are still building their warbands for Fabled Realms and some people have already got to the point where they can start priming their miniatures.
What do you think of their work so far and do you have a favourite warband from those that have been designed?
Tim Chubb - Shearing Goals For Cancer Research
Tim Chubb, one of the guys behind keeping the Beasts of War website up and running, is doing something different this weekend.
To raise money for Cancer Research UK, Tim is getting a hair cut. But not just any hair cut. He's setting himself some Shear Goals!

Fabled Realms Art Chat - Wanted Posters!
The 4Ground guys have turned our hobby hall into a part of the Fabled Realms, covering it in awesome posters straight from the Stoic Arms!
I got to have a chat with Jared, the guy behind this fantastic art, about his influences and how he came into Fabled Realms.
If you want to see more of Jared's work, head over to his website and Patreon, or you can find his book.
One Last Spot Prize As We Wrap Up For Friday
With the first day of the Beta Weekend coming to a close, we found the time for one last spot prize. This time it was a real challenge; get a secret out of 4Ground's Ben!
Let us know what you thought of the day in the comments below, and be sure to check back tomorrow for more Fabled Realms content.

















It’s starting.
Happy to see all the sow but sad to not be with you guys.
Please give us the best of this Realm.
It begins!!! I’ve said it before but massively jealous guys,it’s sure to be an amazing weekend.
Me and the younglings are ready to watch all the content over the next couple of days. We’ll be delving in and playing along and I’ve also some sprues to have a look at characters with them too.
I’ve been looking forward to seeing how the games play over those lovely tables you have created and will definitely have to get hold of some of those 4ground buildings to get a table layout ready for when my Eightfold path faction arrives.
For those lucky to be there have a great time playing with those mini’s early 🙂
Hope everything runs smoothly. Looking forward to the light show.
The snowbound battlefield looked great. Please pop it in a jiffy bag and post it to me 🙂
Have been looking forward to this, will follow along tonight whilst trying get some more of my Stoic Arms put together.
The tables look stunning and really do set the scene for the game
Shouldn’t Justin be wearing the Druggoi helmet? Instead of the Eightfold path player?
It’s finally here! This is the weekend boot camp that I have been waiting for!
And now I want to install lights on the buildings I have waiting for coats of paint…
I haven’t done much gaming or hobby this year so far but this is instilling interest again.
Looking at the amount of rust on Warzan’s armour, Page Justin should be flogged!
The table by night looks absolutely phenomenal :O
Interested to see how this all plays out. Always fun to hang in a blog weekend
Woop woop woop! You guys are on another level.
Love the action shot of everyone digging into their boxes of goodies! And those photos with the lighting effects are epic!
There is already some feedback on the beta rules in the comments. I’m interested to see what attendees have to say on them as well.
Wow, the tables look amazing. Hope you all have a great time.
We will be following the weekend, so tempted to get more building done
Have a great weekend everyone involved.
It looks great so far.
The tables are Awesome! Especially the Winter tables are really, really nice. Well done John!
The tables look amazing, can’t wait to see them in action.
Wish I was back at another bootcamp, can’t wait to see how this game goes down. I enjoyed the demo at uk games expo.
Can’t wait for character development too.
Tables look fantastic. Hope you will be able to give loads of feedback to make this an awesome game. Can’t wait to see the final rules and miniatures when they arrive from the kickstart.
Loving the content so far, everyone seems to be having a fantastic time
Wow! Those icy longhouses look amazing!
Have a great weekend!
The tables are absolutely breathtaking… although the circular fields of potatoes are a little puzzling!
You have surpassed yourselves with those tables…but it was always gonna be good with 4ground lol, Looking forward to all the coverage
Exciting stuff
Nice terrain building you did there! Its nice to see a game with beautiful terrain. And gameplay seems interesting too! Great weekend uys 🙂
Looks a lot of fun, and those tables are amazing.
4 grounds makes beautiful terrain and their miniatures so far really look great. I am glad you at Beats of War are putting this on so we can all see more of this game while it develops!
Looks like everyone is having a blast.
I love the lighted buildings and tables. Might need to invest in some 4Ground terrain, once my pledge comes in.
Oh boy, i have a lot to catch up on!
Have a nice one guys!
Look awesome and very jealous.
Can someone say if the SLA printed figures are just for the Beta Weekend or is the plan to have the figures SLA printed for production as well given that in the interview they stated they are working with chemist to improve the curing process?
Lookin amazing so far!!!
Looking forward to this weekend. Love the 4Ground building sets, I have quite a few, and their move to this game looks interesting, well planned, and innovative. Have fun everyone.
i’m out all weekend gents but i will do my best to catch up saturday and sunday evening.
good luck and have fun
The lighting on the tables looks amazing.
The tables look absolutly amazim! And the lighting is a really cool addition.
Looks absolutely amazing!!!!
That has to be a blast!!!
Both the minis and obviously the terrain looks amazing. Eager to see if the game works as well as promised
This is fabulous!
Gods! So much content – how could one person with a day and night life of him/herself ever be able to catch up on that? 😀
Great stuff it seems, just very much in a short time. How about spreading that a bit for us sad people at our homes? *sob*
Watching the live game working out math and remembering what colours do what for success and crits, wouldn’t it be easier and quicker just to have symbols on the dice.
It seemed easier before with the older dice
The table looks awesome
I have been looking to get back into war gaming for some time but most of the games out their seemed to be lacking in some aspect. This however has peaked my interest, I shall be watching this weekend with avid curiosity. Stellar content so far by the way, the terrain boards are amazing and really draw you in with a sense of solid narrative.
The tables are awesome! Especially the winter tables are absolutely amazing. Well done John!
thx to the guys from 4Ground did great job and super exciting kickstarter campagne
Stuff looks amazing guys. Not sure what I’d spend that tasty voucher on.
well wax my legs and call me Gadys! what a full catalogue of stuff to watch this weekend….
Good first day, now to catch up on what’s happened today!
All I keep thinking – after sitting here in my hobby room painting and watching day 1 is … where could I hide this Fabled Realms stuff so my wife doesn’t know I have bought more games 🙂 – Seriously this looks to be one of the best releases for 2018 and there is no way I can hide a whole town of buildings – you guys are always tapping on the cell door I keep my collectors gene locked away in 🙂
Thank you so much for these. I love these weekend events.
Am a couple of days behind, but love the 4ground stuff and looking forward to seeing how the Fabled Realms is playing out.
Great videos today – thanks! Thanks to the 4ground guys – good to see developers this enthusiastic and invested in their product. You can really tell they have lived in their world for years.
I looooove those longhouses
I didn’t back the Kickstarter, but am still very interested in this game. Bring it on!
The minis look fantastic! And as usual, 4-ground makes the best terrain. Wish they would come out with some to fit Star Wars 🙂
Not gonna lie guys. Your snack selection alone will draw me to future boot camps. Also I am falling in love with the story around this game.
This coverage has been thorough!
The table set ups are just incredible guys and wish I could have been there just to play on those amazing narrative themed tables Very excited to experience this game as it reminds me a lot of the early GW style of 3rd edition fantasy gaming.
Can anyone tell me if there are rules for the different races in the game as I can see there are various racial types of dwarf and elf e.g.
Amassing some dwarf and goblin models to make a Sell Sword war band for beta testing.
This was cool
I can’t believe just how amazing these tables look. Every time I don’t come to one of these weekends, I regret it. Oh man, how badly I wish I’d been able to get to this…
