Fantasy Battles: The 9th Age
This site uses cookies. By continuing to browse this site, you are agreeing to our Cookie Policy.
Fantasy Battles: The 9th Age is an independent table top miniature wargame set in a fantasy world, in which players take control of armies and set them upon one another in conflicts ranging from minor skirmishes to mighty battles with hundreds of models.
The game and all of its rules are completely free to download and use, and consist of a main rulebook and over fifteen army documents, ranging from stoic men and noble elves to the feral orcs and dread worshipers of the dark gods. You can easily assemble your own army using appropriate 28mm miniatures from any manufacturer.
Fantasy Battles: The 9th Age has been created by a group of experienced wargamers, a large supportive staff and continuous input from the wargaming community. We aim to provide a competitive, balanced and fun game, with updates and new rules to be released regularly.
We’ve created 16 unique armies from the Dread Elves in the west to the Ogre Khans in the east. Each army has different units and playstyles and can be represented by models from any 28mm model company. People said it was impossible, but we have created a game that is both balanced and fun. Don’t believe us? Try it for yourselves.
Happy wargaming.

To celebrate the release of the OnG Alphabook I managed to twist @FloriGressConsulting's arms till he agreed to the following:
The two most Orc (and Goblin) related Background Books on Amazon (Games of Zagjan and Here come the Warborn) are both down to 3,99 (be it € or $) or an equivalent of it in your local currency. That offer stands till the book has gotten its first Hotfix. Then the books gets back to the old price. So be fast and get them before they cost again almost double than now.
Enjoy the Backgrund and Fluff.
Engage in new battles.
Have fun. -

Posted the thread Were giants overpowered and how so ?.
ThreadHello hello !!! I see that the ''rage'' rule have been taken out from giants; so we can conclude they were considered substantially overpowered. What data showed that it was overpowered ? Can ''we'' see that data ? It's always super nice to understand…
