Dearest Storm Weavers Community,
It's been quite a while since we last connected, and we've missed you! Your incredible support made our first game possible, and now we're thrilled to announce our next adventure: Storm Weavers: Stronghold, launching on Kickstarter February 4th, 2024!
This time, we're journeying hundreds of years before the adventures of Thymin that you experienced in the first game. We're delving deep into the rich history of Thymin's clan during a time of mysterious catastrophe. As your clan faces exile from their ancestral home due to an inexplicable cataclysm, you'll lead a brave band of scouts tasked with securing a new future. Every choice you make will echo through generations - a weighty responsibility that we've crafted with care for you to experience.
We've carefully listened to your feedback and made significant improvements to the game:
The most exciting change is our new card-based combat system, replacing dice rolls to give you complete tactical control over every battle. We've streamlined the game flow to focus on these intense combat encounters while maintaining the rich storytelling you loved in the original.
Your adventure party now consists of three unique heroes: Thorgrim, a steadfast warrior whose strength knows no equal; Gandri, a mystic whose magical prowess shapes the battlefield; and Vidar, a brilliant dwarven engineer whose inventions can turn the tide of any encounter. Each hero brings distinct abilities to your team, offering endless strategic possibilities.
Whether you prefer to brave the dangers alone or team up with friends, Stronghold has you covered. Play solo, cooperatively with up to three players controlling the heroes, or add a fourth player who commands the monsters for an extra challenge.
As your journey unfolds, you'll develop your heroes' abilities and master new gameplay options. We've introduced Resources and Fate Points, giving you more tools to overcome the challenges ahead.
True to our gamebook heritage, we've crafted a massive narrative with 500 story sections woven throughout an open world ready for exploration. Our new map system makes navigating this vast wilderness more intuitive and engaging than ever before.
Stronghold comes packed with:
20 beautifully detailed battle maps, each telling its own story.
A comprehensive deck of action and item cards for heroes and enemies.
A story book containing 500 narrative sections bringing the world to life.
Our innovative scratch-off map system that makes exploration truly exciting.
An array of new enemies and encounters to test your tactical prowess.
This is just the beginning of what we have to share. We're working tirelessly to create something extraordinary for our amazing community, and we can't wait to reveal more as we approach launch.
Your continued support means the world to us. Together, we're building not just a game, but a whole new chapter in the Storm Weavers saga.
With Dwarven Regards, Pawel and Mat
