Ah, welcome! You’ve just found your way into Battlelund, a 15mm wargame set in the world of Albrathia, which is of course torn apart by mighty warring factions, each with their own set of goals and motivations for stomping and bashing each other about. Who are these warring factions you ask? Well just as you’ve joyously found your way to Battlelund itself, you’ve also found a figurative book on the matter with it’s yellowed-dusty pages wide open, but it’s figurative, so I made that part up. Still, that “book” is just waiting to be perused, telling you a brief bit about each force, and showing some art and photographs of their miniature armies! So look below and click on any of the armies you wish to learn and see more of, or better yet, click on them all! You never know what may call to you in Battlelund…

Read the full battle report from the book here.

Our armies are all available from our Shop on Wargame Vault. Click the army pictures below, or continue scrolling, to learn more about each army.

Armies:

Battlelund is a complete rule system for 15mm Fantasy Wargaming. The 80 page rulebook includes setting material, rules, equipment, traits, orders and spells, army lists, a battle report and a resource section including sample 400 point armies and paper miniature assembly instructions. You can also get a quick overview of the rules, setting and armies in our lovely Game Sampler.

You can find them in our SHOP at Wargame Vault!

For a speedy start into the smashy, bashy thrill of Battlelund look no further than the Battle Bundle! It includes not only the core rules but two fantastic armies, the Helstern Empire and the Orcs!

Battlelund? What’s This?

A great question, with a super fun answer! Battlelund is a fantasy wargame that uses charming printable miniatures in the 15mm scale. A wargame is a mixture of strategy, theme, narrative, visuals, and cooperative fun through competitive gameplay.

You have armies of miniatures, and you command them to bash, smash, and thrash your opponent’s army. Or any other goal/objective decided beforehand. Battlelund has several noteworthy features, such as all the rules in a single core rulebook, a world setting (Albrathia!), a line of miniatures, and imagination! It’s part of a living, diverse hobby, and just awesome!

Choose Your Armies!

Check out each army page to see what you like! It’s okay to like them all. We do! We think they are all amazing and beautiful. [Helstern Empire, Orcs, High Elves, Dark Elves, Dwarves, Dark Lord's Host]

These instructions can also be found in the Battlelund Rulebook, available from our Shop on Wargame Vault.

 If you want to start gaming right away, there is no better solution than paper miniatures! Our Battlelund range of paper miniatures includes six complete armies, all of which are brimming with charm and character, are easy to assemble, and extremely affordable and time-saving! You needn’t purchase units piecemeal either (we don’t even sell them that way!), but rather get the entire army for one low price, which you can then use to print out as many of the units as you wish, offering extreme flexibility and customization for a low cost! You can find them all on our Shop on Wargame Vault.

*These instructions were our original recommendation: Foam Board with optional printed base covers (as you can find in Battlelund Rulebook 1st edition). We now have available and recommend a Printable Paper Base. You can still check out the Foam Board instructions below to get a general idea of what Battlelund bases look like in size and layout.

Grab your New Paper Bases here! PRINT! ENJOY!

These instructions can also be found in the Battlelund Rulebook, available from our Shop on Wargame Vault.

Got an army? Ready to play? First you’ll need bases! We recommend paper backed foam board as base material. It is economical, readily available, and our miniatures look great on it (with or without base covers)! Foam board can be found in 20 x 30 inch sheets wherever you buy your office or school supplies.

This Battle Report can also be found in the Battlelund Rulebook, available from our Shop at Wargame Vault.

Battle Report PDF

 

The mightiest realm of humankind in the known world, the Helstern Empire is devoted to the worship of their deified founder, the warrior-leader Helanya of Sternbar! The splendid armies of the Empire are dressed in brilliant reds and whites, which is the heraldry of the capital, Old Sternbar.

 

The mighty orcs of the eastern lands of Gop are tall, mighty, and somewhat savage! Their homeland was destroyed through a series of calamities and catastrophes, which many of them blame on their human neighbors meddling with deeper and more destructive magics.

For untold centuries the dwarves of Rogwezzle have lived around and under the Taller Than Tall Mountains. Their smiths have created some of the greatest wonders the world of Albrathia has ever known, and their armies have marched for the cause of good time and time again, often to victory.

From the cold lands of Garthrond come the dark elves, a sinister people bent on enslaving and dominating all of Albrathia. Once a race of fey spirits, the dark elves were given physical form by an entity known as the Profound Darkness, who instilled in them great cruelty, pure malice, and superior intelligence.

Once the greatest realm on all of Albrathia, Leafywood, home of the high elves, has slowly begun to decline, especially due to their endless war against the more numerous dark elves. A deeply magical people, the high elves also have a great connection with nature, overseen by Grove Mages, who were the original druids of the world.

Shadowmurk, realm of the Dark Lord, is the most volatile, magically unstable realm on Albrathia. The land is corrupted and vile, and evil dwells in each and every corner. While the Dark Lord is no longer quite himself, his chiefest servant, the fallen wizard Kandmol, has raised a new army.
