Get Ready for the Duchies of Vinci Faction Book
🕑 Added 2024-11-13 19:13:40 +0000 UTCWe're excited to announce that in December we will be releasing our very first Faction Book for the Duchies of Vinci! This 64 page lore book will detail the lore, history, and life of the Duchies of Vinci and will also include four all new narrative hero models to add to your Duchies of Vinci armies! Launching first on MyMiniFactory's Frontiers, you'll have the opportunity to pick up the new book, new heroes, and even the entire Duchies of Vinci 3D printable army at an incredible launch discount.
About the Duchies of Vinci Faction Book
In a peninsula, shielded from the outside world by towering mountains and tumultuous seas, lies a land of which tales are told all over Tyria. A land where Inventors build soldiers of metal, mechanical tanks and repeater crossbows, where flamboyantly dressed nobles lead armies unlike any others, where breathtaking palaces are filled with unprecedented works of art and convoluted intrigue: the Duchies of Vinci.
This is the first of our Faction Books, expansive supplements that cover the lore and history of a specific faction. Teeming with gorgeous art and covering every aspect of the society of the Duchies of Vinci, this is a must-have for clockwork machinery enjoyers, Automa collectors and anyone who ever considered using a mirrored handwriting to prevent rival Inventors from plagiarizing their creations.
Despite its wealth of content, this book is sure to leave you wanting for more; the society it describes is not a unified one, but a multifaceted alliance of Duchies and Free Cities, designed to inspire you to pick a theme for your army or even come up with your own.
Rifling through the pages of lore, you will learn about the most important Duchies and find a trove of banners to rally under, from the ever-arrogant Duchy of Dissimo to the fiercely independent Free City of Libberro, whose bands of Harlequins may seem like a joke until a explosive juggling club lands on your skull. You will be able to pick from twenty official colour schemes, or decide to make up your own; after all, there are many Duchies in Vinci.
This breadth goes beyond simple aesthetics, since a chapter on subfactions will offer you several thematic lists for a playstyle that reflects the lore of your Duchy. Will you opt for the classic Ducal Company, field a full Lance of old-fashioned knights on mechanical boars, run squads of stealthy Assassins or give in to the clockwork efficiency of an entire army of Automa?
The thought we put into our factions goes much deeper than the surface level, as you will discover reading the centuries-spanning history of this one small part of the Age of Fantasy universe. Learn how the long-forgotten tribes that ventured into hostile swamps ages ago became the silk-wearing aristocrats of today, overcoming Daemonic invasions, Imperial subjugation and the earth itself splitting open!
To service the most devout enjoyers of Renaissance-styled shenanigans, we went as far as expanding on the language spoken by these fearsome pasta eaters. What better way to get into character than calling your opponent a Cog-licker, or correcting a dice total by swearing you’ll use your opponent’s missing limbs to teach them how to count? We remind you to only use such language with your most trusted friends, lest they seek the help of an Assassin from Aquarossa to avenge their wounded pride.
The Duchies of Vinci Faction Book is also entirely lore focused, with the army rules and stats, including the new Narrative Heroes, available for free on Army Forge. This makes the book equally useful for all of our Age of Fantasy games, or any game you choose to play in the Age of Fantasy setting! This also means that the book will not become out of date just because we've updated the game rules in the future.

You just keep finding ways to make me feel like that kid who hear rumors of the great candy store for a while, recently tried it out, and keep getting overwhelmed by all the great sweets. I'm looking forward to this, it's like you knew I was just becoming interested in the faction after printing the free mini to use with AoFQ.

Love this! and the fact that it gives you a chance to pick up the entire army is amazing. Now to ask Santa for a Mummified Undead Book and Army deal for the Holidays ;)

When we released Secrets of Tixal, we updated the models to address some printing issues, but besides those updates there are no plans to make any additional changes to the models.
onepagerules
Yes. Tier 1 of the campaign will be all the new things for those that already own all the army models, so just the Faction Book PDF and the Heroes.
Bartosz Brzeziński
Any chances of getting the super delicate things, like crossbow strings & arms and some very thin, pretty unsupported feathers on some helmets reworked/reinforced?
Søren Husum
Will the book and heros be available separately for those that allready own the models?
The Architecture AI
ooo exciting stuff. look forward to hopefully a eternal dynasty book or a OPR art book/ design process book
Nik Fortuin
Plague Doctor packing heat rules, but all 4 of those characters are bonkers. Steam Punk Dreadnaught.

At first it will only be available as a PDF - We are looking into print options for the future.
BadChilii
Is there an availability for print format or only PDF?
