Thank you all so much for your support! This is what makes indie miniature games happen. I'm seeing lots of new backers who may never have engaged with Blaster before, and it's really exciting. Thank you! 

Digital Rewards
After Kickstarter has charged cards, we'll move to BackerKit, where we'll start fulfilling digital rewards. If you receive and love your digital versions, you'll be able to upgrade to physical rewards too. Digital rewards are completed, but it will take some time for us to get them into platforms and process payments, placing digital fulfillment end of April. 

Physical Rewards
Physical rewards will follow. We'll soon have the final counts of what's needed for rewards, and then we'll send out for production (spring) and then fulfillment (summer).

Reminder, just seven days left! Don't miss backing supporting Dark Ages of Annwn on Kickstarter. 

Ryan at The Weekly Scroll cracked my skull open and supped upon its contents. We discuss the origins of Blaster and the future. Ryan has his finger squarely on the pulse of both Indie Miniature Games and OSR RPGs. I can't wait to explore some larger ideas with him in the future. Enjoy. 

Miniature production is underway!

Check out this impressive stack of glorious miniatures! 

Sure, this might just seem like a ubiquitous mid-campaign production shot to you, but to us, it's hundreds of hours of work! Each set of minis from professionals dedicating their craft to creating something fun and bringing these worlds to life.

All sculpted by indie miniature creator Jordan Cuffie of SkullForge Studios and inspired by art for the pages of the Blaster. 

These sets of Blaster Miniatures are ready to ship, and Death Ray Designs might have outdone themselves!  

Inside the Dark Ages of Annwn Miniatures Box
5 months ago – Tue, Mar 10, 2026 at 02:10:54 PM

Ceffyl Dŵr - Malevoent shapeshifting water spirits drowning, smashing, and stabbing their way through your village. In the Dark Ages of Annwn, you'll face them near a river that your village needs to fish for survival. Unfortunately, so does your rival. Do you focus on trying to kill the beasts first, then face each other? Or are you going to tear eachother apart and allow the otherworldly creatures to go unchecked?

Cŵn Annwn - The King of the Wild Hunt's noble pack. Though they are not quite as large as wolves, the spirit hounds hunt their prey with ferocity and serve the master loyally. They will test and prod your warriors, swarming when it's time to strike. 

Cyhyraeth -These deathly spirits have crossed from Annwn (the spiritual realm) to claim your lives. Will your village be able to rid itself of these ill spirits and survive into the next season? 

Angelystor -  Each year on Halloween and at the end of July, the Angelystor is said to emerge from a 3,000-year-old Yew tree and name those who will die. You do your best to steer clear of the burial grounds near its shade, but life, or death, has brought you here. 
 

Progress on the Box 

It's been really fun working on die lines for some custom boxes for the minis. And we're well underway in production of the models. Each box comes with what's pictured, except the bases might be a little different. This set provides the perfect starting place for your village to face monsters taken straight from the pages of Dark Ages of Annwn!
