For those not familiar with the Quar range, here's a breakdown of the world you're delving into...

"The Quar are the inhabitants of a rugged, mountainous, and storm-wracked world called Alwyd. Their planet is warm, like ours, and shares many of the same characteristics. One notable difference, however, is Cythwyn - the Month of Storms. Every third year, at the end of the calendar, all of Alwyd is tormented by the worst storms imaginable. Sandstorms drop sand thousands of miles from the nearest desert. Snow falls in the tropics. Black blizzards scour croplands down to bedrock. Hailstones the size of mhudd balls pound the earth and crush anything unprotected. It is a terrible time, but the Quar are used to terrible things, for to be a Quar is to be resilient."

A fascinating world I think you'll agree. It also turns out that these fellows are also eager to get into a scrap or two.

"In their native tongue, ‘Alwyd’ means ‘home’, and to a Quar, nothing is more important. The patch of dirt, the tiny hovel full of kits and kin - these are the things most Quar gladly devote their lives to. Most Quar. But there are other Quar - ambitious, striving Quar - for which a mere warm bed and full belly are not enough. These are the ones that scheme, that connive, and their machinations bring whole nations and kingdoms into conflict. Constant conflict, brutal conflict, for the history of Alwyd is written in blood..."

The new set of plastic miniatures are based on the old range by Zombiesmith. To start with though, you're going to be able to get your hands on a new Quar set which features both sides, the Crusaders and the Croftyrans alongside a Rulebook, Cards and Bases for your miniatures.

As well as the new set which allows you to dive right into this game, you're also going to be able to get your hands on stand-alone sets of figures later on down the line as well. This means that if you like the look of these miniatures and you fancy a new game, you've got plenty to look forward to.

Over on the Quar discussion group on Facebook, there have also been a look at the 15mm range for the game which are available right now from the Zombiesmith Website. So, if you don't want to go with the 28mm scale, you can shrink things down a little bit and starting tinkering in 15mm.

It's great that we're going to be seeing lots of content coming out for this game in plastic form but you can still dive in and get loads of fun kits already from Zombiesmith. That means if you do end up snapping up that new box set, you'll have plenty of opportunities to expand your collection in different ways.
