Rackham’s Confrontation Finally Set To Return in 2018

Confrontation Main

Prepare yourselves for the resurrection of Rackham’s classic with the Confrontation: Classic Kickstarter which is coming in 2018!

The confirmation that Confrontation-Resurrection is being revived and expanded upon has many veteran tabletoppers talking and chomping at the bit to become a backer. For those who are unfamiliar with Confrontation, it was a miniature skirmish game that was published by Rackham (which is no longer in business). It was set in the world of Aarklash, a medieval fantasy realm with all the associated races and monsters. The rules were highly versatile and allowed players to play out small skirmish battles and larger battles if desired. There were several editions and expansions for it as well.

Fast forward to 2017, where rumors of Confrontation being brought back showed up on forums and veteran players hoped that they were true. As of 18 hours ago, Confrontation Classic Kickstarter has been confirmed on Facebook. The publisher that has taken on this project is Sans Detour, a French publishing house that does the French version of Call of Cthulhu, Achtung Cthulhu, and several other roleplaying games.

They do not have a miniatures line nor any experience with miniatures, and there is no word yet as to what company Sans Detour will be collaborating with. They do have plans for other games in the Confrontation universe, including an RPG branch-off.

Confrontation-Resurrection

For Confrontation: Resurrection, there will be no Kickstarter and speculation centers around it being a board game with PVC miniatures. Sadly, that is all we know at this point. We are going to keep an eye out for more news and hopefully Sans Detour will have a more effective marketing campaign moving forward.

As of right now this teaser has been sharer nearly 300 times on Facebook already, so it appears to already be eagerly anticipated!
