Have you pledged yet for all these dope minis, brother? The smash Chronicle X’s Kickstarter from Archon Studios was funded in minutes, don’t miss this one!
Currently Chronicle X has been funded with well over $300,000 in pledges!
Some of the new Stretch Goals figures include variants on popular 80’s movie themes and personalities which have helped to make this game so popular:
Who you going to call?
You have 30 seconds to comply.
Who wants some Ice cream??
The new board game looks to combine a lot of elements of X-COM, Zombicide, Heroclix and more! Let’s take a look at some pictures of the game and see what they had to say about it.
Chronicle X is a 2-7 player tactical board game, set in a Sci-Fi Retro 1980s, tasking players to either control the daring men and women that make up the military organization, Chronicle X, or the Overmind, a ruthless and cunning alien overseeing the invasion of Earth and the end of all human resistance. The Chronicle X player(s) have a diverse group of heroes to choose from to form their squad, but must also manage the expansion of their base of operations, using what scraps and materials they can to secure a foothold on the planet. The Overmind player has a cadre of alien troops to choose from to overwhelm the Chronicle X players, ensuring they will never save Earth.
Chronicle X miniatures are made from a specially produced HIPS-based material. It is able to hold an amazing amount of detail (similar to resin minis) while at the same time providing the durability needed for regular play. Each miniature is produced as a single piece, thus no need for assembly. You will be ready to play straight from the box!
The entire production process will be completed within the EU (Poland), avoiding any fulfillment delays that can occur when production is performed in China. Chronicle X will be Archon Studio’s second new game fully produced in-house after Vanguard of War, which is already in the midst of fulfillment to backers. We have the necessary machinery, a competent staff and will oversee the entire process from the beginning until the last package is shipped to our backers!
Chronicle X’s miniatures are 32 mm scale but as you can see, we have models as big as almost 80 mm! Big or small, each miniature is brought to life in gorgeous detail as a single piece.
The new game using 32mm scale miniatures looks like it’s going to be a lot of fun. But head on over to the Kickstarter page and check it out for yourself!
