Welcome to Shargaz - Epic Fantasy Battles



 


This is a fan made rule system to play medieval fantasy battles of file and rank. The game is scale agnostic, so you and your friends can play with any miniatures you have laying around. You only need to agreed in the scale and the size of a standard unit.  

Although the game has no specific lore, it is based on a classic medieval fantasy setting, where magic is rare and magical creatures are uncommon (within a fantasy setting, obviously). The most common races are humans, orcs, elfs and dwarfs. Each one has their own social organization with their own independent kingdoms, trading with others, making alliances and breaking them when convenient. Each kingdom looks for their own intereses. And you are the one that writes their history.

Shargaz—Epic Fantasy Battles is not meant to be a game for competitive play, although special care has been taken to balance the units as much as possible. But real battles have  never been balanced and fair. Each army list has its own strengths and weaknesses. Therefore, the real enjoyment as a player is to exploit your strengths and shield your weaknesses by using strategy, maneuver and tactics. This game has been created with that idea in mind, encouraging tactics over stats, maneuver over special rules and ingenuity over magic.

You can find the documents in the download page. There you will find all you need to play: the rules, army lists, campaigns, tokens...

Finally, this game belongs to you (the players) and it is up to you and your friends how to use it. The content in these pages is under creative common license CC BY-NC 4.0. So you are welcome to create your own army books, campaigns and missions. Hope you enjoy the reading and have fun games playing it.

SHARGAZ EFB - BATTLE REPORT - UNDEAD VS ELFS - 1500 POINTS

Image
  Battle of Ravenkoff "It was an early morning of Autumn when two elf messengers arrived to the elf town of Allerhun, inside of the Great Forest. They were agitated and tired. They had run all night to bring the terrible news. A undead horde have descended from the Dark Mountains and slowly headed towards the forest. They had almost reached the human village of Ravenkoff, close to the forest border. The population had runned away and the elf explores guarding the border were clearly insufficient to face the undead army.  The garrison of Allerhum assambled a party to intercept the undead army before it reached the town of Ravenkoff , trying to delay its advance over the Great Forest, meanwhile messengers were sent to Mhytharasan to call the elf army."  Will they manage to stope the undead in time?
