NEWEST PROJECT - THE QUAR

 

After a much longer time then I expected due to unforeseen real-world circumstances I have completed my painting on the Quar. Quar, you say? What are Quar? Why the sentient life form of the planet Alwyd. They are Anteaters whose lives are governed by their devotion to the traditions of their ancestors. They have been engaged in almost perpetual war for the past hundred years. Their technology is that of WWI, but there are now incredible new things coming about do the changes brought by a radical thinker. 

While the whole of the world is at war, my games are focused on the two core opponents, the Kingdom of Coftyr who are fighting to maintain the traditions of Kings and Emperor to rules the nations of the world, and the Maer Braech lands that now are governed more as a realm of the populist run by a dictator who has launched the Great Crusade to change all the lands into his own vision. These two factions, the Crymuster and the Crusaders are battling across the globe for the hearts and minds of everyone. 

My games are centered around small unit tactics in a highly urban environment. This campaign is all about controlling the Holly City of Cearsalem. This is the spiritual center for all Quar, and its control will determine whom the Ancestors favor. 

The Forces of the Crymuster. In Front are the Command Section, Followed by the Specialists and at the Rear are the Three Sections of Infantry. 

Here are the Crusaders. Again, the Front Shows HQ Section, Followed by the Specialists, and then the Three Infantry Section.
I will include more details on both the units and the game system in a follow up post. For now, some images from the battlefield.

    1. I picked these up about 18 months ago. They have yet to get any gaming use. Obviously, that's about to change.

  3. Great choice going for the Quar, wonderful sculpts and the whole back story to them is brilliantly done. Your buildings and terrain looks super and works very well.

  4. Thanks Donnie. I have been a Quar fan for ages. I have a few of the original metal, but they are a little small compared to the new plastic. I'm working on getting some 3D printed trenches for the full-size game.
