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.

    @DarkSky I don’t think your analogy to car fatalities is very fitting. What you’re saying is a general sending 10-20 guys over there knowing they will die, but could win the battle is ok, but a warlock killing 12 guys rough estimate for an entire…

    Quote from berti: “The "we have to hide once a year because the witch elfes sacrifice everybody to their god" background was more appealing than the warlock part of new DE background..... ” It must be freezing in hell. I actually agree with Berti. :D…

    @DarkSky You need to have the concept "too far" elaborated? Really? Or are you just avoiding the subject? New background sucks, it seems you and your fellows from LAB are the only who like it The Background is just keeping the DE general head…

    I love this debate, of a popular army, stucked in the mud because of some mysterious background written in secret years ago where they suddenly become a life saving society where we can't sacrifice any more people because it's wrong.... And Warlock are…

    @DarkSky More men will be sacrificed tactically then will ever die to the sacrifice of occultism in the game. I think the project is over-representing the background on the tabletop on this one, or has given a too detailed background description. I would…

    wow that's awesome! I'm not sure I have the guts to play without Artillery, but wow. That's definitely what my mind wants to create when I write an army list. I wish all lists had that many models!

    DE should be a MSU MMU army. FLU should not be a playstyle encouraged...but actually it is. Path access has a big role in this. EVO is a huge buff to single large units. Divination has aura spells, and one would think they are fine to support MMU/MSU,…
