The Thinning Veil - Red Mist

Overview

Red Mist is a miniatures skirmish game set in the world of the Thinning Veil, where players control warbands vying for honor and the chance to become legendary Heroes. Guided by their Druid, Chiefs lead their followers into battle, striving for glory and riches while weaving a narrative that unfolds round by round. Players can channel the power of the Gods through sacrifices, trigger ancient earth magic, and harness elemental or spirit magic using Leystones on the Taranis Wheel to gain an edge in combat. Each warband consists of a Chief, a spiritual advisor, and warriors, all of whom can gain skills and attributes by spending Skulls earned through defeating enemies. However, accumulating unspent Skulls makes players prime targets for opponents eager to claim them. Red Mist features the Headhunters and the Berserkers, along with challenging, scenario-based encounters that introduce both allies and foes. Victory goes to the player who completes the most objectives, but beware of powerful enemies like the Crypt Ghouls and the Ghoul King. The game offers solo play through three engaging scenarios or competitive gameplay for up to ten players across six Rage mode scenarios and three Grudge matches.
