Avatars of War Begins a Bearded Kickstarter
May 28, 2012 by brennon
Avatars of War have always been great for grabbing those awesome character models to take pride of place at the head of your army, but they are now moving into the world of full blown battalions.
It started with their Warriors of Apocalypse and now seems to be moving to the best thing ever (of course...) Dwarves!
As you can see a fair amount of concept art has already been done for the stunty army but Avatars of War (and me!) want to see more. On their Kickstarter wishlist is the likes of Bear Cavalry, Valkyrie Female Dwarves, loads more special characters and even the basics of Warriors, Thunderers and Rangers.
While I get excited this could be an awesome addition to their Warthrone line and really push their world of Saga as an alternative system.
If their previous releases are anything to go by this is going to be a grand army that might just sap the money from my wallet. Just have to hope they reach their target!
What do you make of their Dwarven ambitions?

I always thought it took a lot longer for a brand name to become synonymous for the system it works within!!
I’m really tempted to back this project as IMO AoW produce the best looking traditional fantasy Dwarves.
Here here, some amazing looking Dwarves that are begging to be added to plenty of collections.
An entire army of them though, now that’s amazing.

(Before I gush, it’s worth pointing out that AoW is a Spanish company so had to use Indiegogo – search there or use the link in the article to pledge.) I love that artwork. A lot. The intricacy of the armour with all its rivets and ornate dwarven emblems is incredible – just look at that battle standard and the drummer on their Indiegogo page – and given how good their current line of models look it’s likely these will be a match for the art. The variety of units is great too – a whole unit of female dwarves?… Read more »
I’m backing it !
I loved their berserkers, and I love their concept art…
I’ve painted a few of their minis before and I’ve never been disappointed : it’s high quality.
Oh, those crazy spaniards… Need I say more ?
@elromanozo look at the apoc Warrior! I would like to see them painted by you!

Oh good god!! I have just spent many hundreds of Australian dollars on GW Dwarfs. Now AoW are bringing out their own fantastic range which looks completely EPIC! according to their concept art.
Goodbye moneys….. that is all I have to say.
Looks like ex GW artist Wayne England has been very busy on the concepts.
It will be interesting to see how many Dwarf generals will pledge gold on this.
No cash to kickstart this, but they are looking spendid
I would love to have these guys so much!
Too many kick-starters popping up I feel, but Mantic are brilliant, and Avatars of War are outstanding. Don’t like Dwarfs but will put aside some money to help these guys out.
If GW did a kickstarter how much money do you think they’d get :p
Hope to see them! Their sculpt are great! You should make the kickstarter’s posts in your homepage. I would like to see aow quality of sculpts in mantic range… Hope they gain a lot of money! If little company like aow or Mantic grow up, our hobby would be better.
I think you should post the pictures from the unboxed apoc warriors from AoW, they are incredible well done!
