The Unicorn: An Excerpt from Fanticide




In honor of the Kickstarter giveaway and to thank you for your support, we wanted to share with you a fiction excerpt from the Fanticide Rulebook!



The Unicorn

When brilliant colors brush rain-damp earth,
When clouds give way to light –
This is when you must hide, Child, hide
For such colors are violent harbingers
Of a beautiful death and despair;
It’s under the rainbow’s grisly light
That Unicorns move out to feed.
Flesh is what elegant horns seek out;
Flesh of you and Flesh of me,
Our bones picked clean by graceful snouts.
Sacrifice not your loved ones to slender hooves,
For nothing sates the foul beasts’ thirst,
A thirst for Flesh and Blood and Bone.
When clouds give way to light,
And colors arch across blue skies,
You must hide, Child, hide.
And beware the lovely Unicorn
Who craves your flesh with teeth like thorns.

NEW KICKSTARTER BONUS for Fanticide!

Thank you so so much for the Kickstarter support! We are halfway to our goal and we want to thank you buy giving away a free Unicorn miniature to all past and future contributors. Check out the details on Kickstarter.

Fanticide Fae and Liberi; Easy to Paint and Quick to Get on Your Gaming Table

There is a great post on the Miniature Fantasy Tabletop Wargaming blog today about how the models for Fanticide are easy to paint and quick to get on your gaming table.  Take a minute of your time and go check it out:

Miniature Fantasy Tabletop Wargaming Blog



Drew, the man behind this painting frenzy, is leading our War Host program.  If you would like to promote Fanticide and make money while doing it send him an email at warhost@aliendungeon.com.  He will be happy to talk to you about how to get your own demonstration set and how to get started in the Warhost program.

Two war bands painted up in under twelve hours for Fanticide is pretty impressive.   The miniatures were carefully selected from us here at Alien Dungeon to fit this need exactly.  Models that look good, are easy to paint, and quick to get onto your gaming table.  We want you to enjoy playing games of Fanticide with painted models. Our partnership with Eureka miniatures is allowing that to happen.  Good looking models that are designed to be easy to paint and quick to get on your gaming table.  Looks like we delivered!
Below are some shots we pulled off the blog entry that show the Fae and Liberi being painted up from start to finish in under twelve hours:











We were promised some shots of these in games soon.  Look back here to see more.

(Drew also promised to get a better camera so we could see the models better.)

Nice Post About Fanticide

Bring your A game stopped by and visited us at Historicon.

They did a nice interview and some coments on the game here:
http://bringyouragamemagazine.blogspot.com/2012/08/a-look-at-alien-dungeons-upcoming.html

Fanticide Update and Progress Report

I thought it was high time for an update on Fanticide. We have been very busy since returning from Historicon.

First up, here is a picture of bins full of metal. This is about 20% of the projected launch quantity of metal miniatures for the game. The bins contain Liberi Centaurs, Creeps, and much of the Fae. There is still lots to go but its cool to have so many miniatures on hand. We will start packing next week. 

Below are some sketches of Magic Dominants by Tony Ackland. We are working on the design of these at the moment. You can read more about Magic in Fanticide on our web site HERE.

Lastly, here is a page from the book. We are all feverishly trying to finish it by early next week. If done, well, then its off to the printers.


If all goes well, we should remain on track for a September release date. We will be announcing the release date and when the product will be available for pre-order very soon. Being gamers ourselves, we don't want to give a release date or a pre-order date unless we KNOW we will come very close to hitting it. It sucks to wait for or preorder something that ends up being months late. We don't do that at Alien Dungeon...
