The title will place players into an adventure that has been generated procedurally, gearing up to be hunting down enemies or engaging in a brutal battle with skirmish miniatures on arrival.

Five Leagues from the Borderlands has been designed for a solo player in a continuous battle against a looming threat. Players will explore and dungeon crawl their way through a series of adventures through phases, traipsing through a desperately unforgiving dark fantasy universe. Facing a series of events and campaigns as the story unfolds, the main focus is the hero and their ability to survive in the fearful and savage world.

Game Introduction // Five Leagues from the Borderlands

Players will be taking control of a Warband behind them, a crew of tough guys to soften the blow. Players will head to the town to rake in some suspicious subjects for the jobs, then take to the road to travel along the map and take down brutal monsters along the way.

It does not matter which miniatures join you on the adventure - you just need your characters represented with roughly 12-15 figures on the table. The table is pretty easy to organise too, needing a 2x2ft or 3x3ft space a handful of six-sided dice, two of percentile dice, and somewhere to keep all of your notes. So just choose from your minis depending on what species are in your fantasy warband, and you are good to go.

Five Leagues from the Borderlands Third Edition is available to pre-order on the Modiphius website, coming in the format of a 232-page full colour royal-sized (15.6cm x 23.4cm) hardback book, priced at £35 for a later release this year in June.
