I've ordered the rulebook for this just to give it a try.

I may use my own models rather than theirs...not that there's anything wrong with their models that is...I just have a lot of fantasy models of my own going un-used...

Welcome to Frostgrave! The Frostgrave Nickstarter pre-order campaign has started Amidst the frozen ruins of an ancient city, wizards battle in the hopes of discovering the treasures of a fallen empire. In this fantasy skirmish wargame, each player takes on the role of a wizard from one of ten schools of magic, and builds his band of followers. The wizard's apprentice will usually accompany his master, and more than a dozen other henchman types are available for hire, from lowly thugs to heavily armoured knights and stealthy thieves. Wizards can expand their magical knowledge by unlocking ancient secrets and may learn up to 80 different spells. While individual games of Frostgrave are quick and can easily be played in an hour or two, it is by connecting them into an ongoing campaign that players will find the most enjoyment. In the campaign section, players will find treasure tables, rules for establishing bases, and even tables for wandering monsters. The scenarios given in the book are merely the beginning of the limitless adventures that can be found amidst the ruins of the Frozen City. With our Nickstarter pre-order program, we are offering you the opportunity to not only get yourFrostgrave book and figures early, but to get some unique free and limited edition pieces with your order. The official release date for Frostgrave is the 20th of July 2015. We are producing a range of metal wizards and apprentices, 20 in all, for the game. We have also made metal specialist soldiers, and for the first time ever, a box of plastic figures. The plastic figures titled Frostgrave Soldiers will allow you to build your own customised henchmen to explore Frostgrave. We have five deals available in our Nickstarter, which we’ve named Wizard Levels. FND5 - Level 5 Wizard, The Ultimate FND4 - Level 4 Wizard FND3 - Level 3 Wizard FND2 - Level 2 Wizard FND1 - Level 1 Wizard As Frostgrave is a table-top miniatures game, we’ve teamed up with Osprey Games to bring you the official Frostgrave figures. We’ve based them on the illustrations in the book, painted by artistDmitry Burmak. There are three different sets of figures. The first set is the Wizards themselves. TheWizards are in packs of two figures, a Wizard and an Apprentice of a particular school. There are 10 different schools of magic in the game Frostgrave, and we have a pack of Wizards for each. These figures are made of pewter. The second set is specialist followers that theWizards can employ, such as thieves and barbarians. These are also pewter figures. The third set is plastic figures. This is a box of twenty plastic figures to represent the soldiers the Wizards employ to accompany them intoFrostgrave. The box set contains plenty of different weapon and equipment variants that no two Wizard parties will ever look the same. We would like to thank especially the figure designers who worked on Frostgrave. We were joined by a star studded cast on this project, it was a real joint effort and we appreciate the quality of work they put in.
