Welcome to play demo matches with us to learn the game. No prior knowledge is required, we will explain all the rules! There will be figures to borrow so you don't need to bring your own army, although bringing your own army is of course also fine! It is possible to either play a full-fledged Legion match (takes 2-3 hours) or a smaller version called Skirmish and takes about 1.5 hours. Anyone who just wants to roll a few dice can get a mini-demo to understand what the game is about. We are two people exhibiting and we can have two guests with us at a time. Welcome!

Nameless Rylieh

"Hidden" Miniature Narrative Games

"The mythical city of Rungholt, long believed to have been lost to a catastrophic storm in prehistoric times, has been rediscovered. Shrouded in tales of great riches and the sinful excesses that doomed it, Rungholt has captivated the imaginations of scholars and treasure seekers for generations.

Thanks to the efforts of crews from the Reichsmarine at Kiel and Doctor Johannes Gutenberg of the University of Kiel, the center of the ancient settlement has finally been uncovered. Utilizing advanced and innovative research methods, the team confirmed concrete evidence of the city’s existence for the first time in history.

This remarkable discovery not only sheds light on the rich history of the Wadden Sea region but also serves as a poignant reminder of its enduring cultural and historical significance. The department for German History at the University of Kiel is now preparing an expedition to explore the site and uncover the mysteries of Northern Germany’s fabled past"

Rost & Röta är hypernarrativt, postapokalyptiskt figurspel i ett postpokalytiskt Skåne.
-----------------o-----------------

I år lanseras de första rost och röta figurerna och det firar vi med att ha workshops där man kan måla ett eget gäng och spela med. Dessutom blir det terrängbygge. Inga förkunskaper krävs och ingen materiel heller. Figurer kommer säljas på plats och färg och annat material bjuder jag på.

Magistratens drag

En hemlighetsfull trollkarl bjuder in allmänheten att beskåda ett parti Stenar och Bräde mot sin ärkerival magistraten. I alla år har magistraten nesligen förlorat, men i år har han en plan. En grupp äventyrare får i uppdrag att lista ut trollkarlens hemlighet en gång för alla – och de har bara två timmar på sig.

Testa Magistratens drag — äventyret från Spelkongressen, eller spela igen för att testa nya lösningar och upptäcka fler hemligheter.

Du som inte är föranmäld till Magistratens drag kan också få spela med våra spelledare, i mån av plats.
