On a wounded world, new realms struggle to survive over the ashes of old empires.
The Human Empire fell when the world beneath it cracked. In an instant, its ancient capital and last
emperor were swallowed into the earth and lost forever. A massive wound now cuts through the
continent, winding and splitting the land itself.
It is an age of war in the lands of Tyria, where the peace and order of the last era have collapsed and new
powers have begun to emerge. A vast land of many peoples and kingdoms, no corner of Tyria has been left
completely untouched by the opening of the Great Rift.
Daemonic howls haunt the land, from the frigid north to the once peaceful Elven shores. In the Western
steppe lands, Dwarven berserkers bring the fire and fury of their new gods to bear against the thick armour
of their Orcish foes. While beneath the sea, ancient powers, once driven into hiding, now plot their return
to a now weakened and fractured surface. In the Southern deserts, even death offers no escape for the
cursed souls of the people there.
As all this unfolds, others have begun to pour into Tyria from different planes of existence. Civilizations
once lost have returned under new gods, while others have come unbidden to hunt the Daemons plaguing
Tyria. Strange and fantastic creatures have arrived as well, intent on carrying out their own goals, only
vaguely understood by the people of Tyria.
It is a time of otherworldly monsters, legendary heroes and unlikely alliances. An era of wonders and
ambition, as well as calamity and horror.
How will you forge your path in this age of fantasy?

 AGE OF FANTASY - QUICKSTART v3.2.0

Introduction Print & Play Components

Age of Fantasy is a miniature wargame set in a dark magical
world, which is played using 32mm miniatures.
We designed this set to give new players an easy way to start
playing the game, and it comes with printable miniatures,
terrain, army sheets, and play markers.
Age of Fantasy vs Skirmish
This quickstart set can be used to learn both Age of Fantasy
and Skirmish, which are played with the same miniatures.
Age of Fantasy is a battle-sized game, played with 25+ models
per player, which fight together in big units. If you’re looking
to play big battles, this is the game for you.
This starter set gives you everything you need to start playing
exciting battles right away, without having to worry about
putting together your own army lists.
Simply print out the miniatures and assemble the armies as
described below, and you’ll have two balanced forces ready to
clash on the field of battle.
Additionally we’ve also provided you with a set of terrain
pieces to spice up your games, as well as a set of play tokens to
help you keep track of different game effects.
Beastmen
If you’re playing Age of Fantasy, print the following:

• 1 unit of 3 Automa Guard
For your very first match you can try playing a reduced game,
just to get to grips with the basic mechanics. • 3 City Guards

We suggest playing just the first 2 rounds of the game, using a Terrain
smaller play space (for example 2‘ x 2‘ in size) and removing a To prepare your battlefield’s terrain, we recommend printing

Then once you’ve got to grips with the basic mechanics you
can simply reset the match, add some new units, and extend
the play space so that you can play your first full battle.

Beginner’s Guide vs Core Rules Sheet

In order to play the game, you are going to need the beginner’s
guide, or the core rules sheet, both of which you can download
for free on our website: www.onepagerules.com

If you’re new to wargaming, then you should download the

beginner’s guide, which contains a thorough explanation of the
rules, with diagrams and examples to further clarify the rules.

If you’re a veteran wargamer however, then you might want to

skip the beginner’s guide, and just check out the core rules
sheet, which provides all of the rules in a condensed format.

Note that we have free rules for solo-play on our website as

well, in case you want to try out the games on your own.

 AGE OF FANTASY - BACKGROUND
The Beastmen
Beastmen are a coalition of different species of bestial
humanoids, which rely on ambush tactics and deadly force to
overwhelm their enemies.
For centuries, the Beastmen lived together in the southern
savannah of Tyria, building great cities and trading
prosperously. The opening of the Rift destroyed many of their
cities, and Daemons drove them from their home. Most of the
Beastmen have fled north, surviving by raiding and scavenging
while they seek a new home.
The vast savannah in southern Tyria had been inhabited by
wildlife since the beginning of time. At the center of the largest
watering hole of the land, a giant lush tree provided shade and
food, and from its roots a magical substance seeped into its
fruit. Over many generations, the animals that ate the fruit of
this tree slowly changed and became sentient, and came to see
the tree as sacred, settling around it in peace.
Gradually, the different tribes of Ndoli, Waheni, Hapari,
Ndwari and Silombi learned to co-exist and formed a
confederacy of closely knit tribes. The Beastmen built a great
civilization in the savannah, constructing a great capital city
around the Holy Tree, and a network of smaller cities around,
which expanded out through the grasslands and connected the
watering holes around it. For centuries, the Beastmen tribes
lived lives of peace and prosperity on the Savannah.
Then, the Rift opened. It tore through the Savannah, damaging
the Holy Tree and destroying many of their cities. When the
Daemons began to emerge, most Beastmen were forced to
abandon their homeland. The only thing that remains of their
old civilization are the ruins of their cities, and the dried out
remains of the Holy Tree, whose once crystalline waters have
now turned black.
Some Beastmen still call these ruins their home, but there is no
hope that it will flourish once again in the future. Others have
begun to wander along the edge of the Rift, towards the heart
of Tyria. In order to survive, they raid settlements and burn
forests to build equipment and camps.
Each amongst the Beastmen has their own reason for this great
migration. Some hope to find a new home, while others seek to
understand the cause of the rift. There are others who have
become accustomed to raiding and violence, and take any
opportunity to destroy the homes of others, just as their own
homes were destroyed.
How will you guide your tribe?

The Duchies of Vinci
The Duchies of Vinci are an army of highly advanced humans
assisted by their robotic automatons. On the battlefield, they
rely on ranged warfare using crossbows and cannons,
supported by the more resilient automa.
They were once a collection of poor villages who discovered
the intelligence-enhancing Mindstones in the aftermath of the
Rift. The Vinci have gained great wealth and knowledge, but
guard their secrets and their Mindstones closely to protect
themselves from poverty. However, over time, their
isolationism has fostered rivalry between the Duchies, causing
them to stagnate.
The Vinci were once amongst the poorest people in Tyria, a
meager collection of villages built on swampland. Without any
source of wealth, they were subsistence farmers who were
largely disregarded by the wider Empire and other outsiders as
mere peasants. When the Great Rift opened, the Vinci’s
homelands were devastated by violent earthquakes.
Soon after these quakes however, glowing stones began to
emerge from the depths of the swamps. At first, the stones
were simply used to create jewelry, but soon the stones started
to affect people’s minds and made them smarter, leading to a
new time of technological and cultural progress. They became
known as Mindstones soon after, and it was not long before the
Vinci had taken every stone that they could find until almost
none remained undiscovered.
Influenced by their Mindstones, the Vinci started building
machines to drain the swamps and reclaim the land. They
expanded their farmland, built great cities, and became very
rich, very quickly. The Vinci established universities that
attracted the best minds in all the land, which led to the
invention of robots, known as Automa. These robots assisted
the Vinci with farming, construction, and generally served to
boost the advancement of the Vinci even more.
As the Vinci began to prosper, they found themselves
surrounded by enemies. Outsiders sought to claim these
newfound riches for themselves, and began to stake claims
upon the Vinci and their Mindstones. When conflict broke out,
the Vinci armies turned the tides and soon conquered their
neighbours. In order to defend themselves from future
conflicts, the Vinci turned their cities into fortresses and
expelled all foreign diplomats and scholars.
The isolated Duchies became even more reliant on advanced
technology to make up for their losses in trade. Now,
Universities are the real power in Vinci, while Dukes have
become mere figureheads. This led to them being highly
insular and suspicious, with their universities waging secret
wars of sabotage and espionage on each other.
How will you ensure the prosperity of your duchy?
 TUTORIAL - BASICS
The Most Important Rule Measuring Movement
When playing a complex game there are going to be occasions When measuring how far a model moves always measure so
where a situation is not covered by the rules, or a rule does not that no part of its base moves further than the total distance.
seem quite right. When that is the case use common sense and
personal preference to resolve the situation.

If you and your opponent cannot agree on how to solve a

situation, use the following method in the interest of time.

Roll one die. On a result of 1-3 player A decides, and on a

result of 4-6 player B decides. This decision then applies for the
rest of the match, and once the game is over you can continue
to discuss the finer details of the rules.

Models & Units

In the rules, individual miniatures are referred to as models,
whilst groups of one or more models are referred to as units.

This means that when a rule applies to a unit it applies to all

miniatures within that unit, whilst if a rule applies to a model it
only applies to one individual miniature.

Dice
To play the game you are going to need some six-sided dice, Note that whilst all examples here show round bases, these
which we will refer to as D6. Depending on how many models movement restrictions apply in the same way to models on
you are playing with, we recommend having at least 10 to 20 bases of different shape or models without a base.

The player rolls three dice and scores a 3, a 4 and a 5. This means that
the model gets two successes (the 4 and the 5), and one fail (the 3).

Modifiers
Throughout the game there are going to be rules that apply
modifiers to your die rolls. These will usually raise or lower the
value of a unit’s roll results by either +1 or -1, but the exact
number may vary.

Whenever a modifier applies to one of your rolls, simply add

or subtract the value from the roll and the new value counts as
the final result, however a roll of 6 always counts as a success
and a roll of 1 always counts as a fail, regardless of how much
it is being modified by.

Example: A model with Quality 4+ must take three Quality tests

with a -1 modifier. The player rolls three dice and scores a 3, 4 and 5.
Because of the modifier the final result is a 2, a 3 and a 4. This means
that the model gets one success (the 4), and two fails (the 2 and the 3).

count as fatigued, always fail morale
tests, and must stay idle.
Melee Results: Units in melee don’t take
morale tests from wounds. Instead they
compare the number of wounds each
unit caused, and the unit with the lowest
total loses, and must take a morale test.
If the test is failed whilst the unit is
down to half or less of its total size then

 WHAT NEXT?
The Wargaming Hobby
Wargaming as a hobby is much more than just the content of
this starter set, and what you’ve seen here so far is only the tip
of a very large iceberg!
Painting & Modelling
Whilst you can always play the games with unpainted
miniatures, one of the biggest parts of the hobby is to paint
your army into something that looks great on the battlefield.
Painting your army can be as simple or as complex as you want
it to be, so take your time and learn at your own pace, to get
the results that you want. We recommend starting out with just
painting your models with a simple 2-3 color scheme, and then
gradually working your way up to painting master pieces.
Once you get more experience, you might also want to start
customizing your models, bashing together pieces from
different kits to get completely unique results.
Finally the modelling doesn’t have to stop at models, but you
can build your own wargaming terrain from simple household
items, putting together a gaming table that looks great and
offers a variety of ways to play.
Cardboad boxes can be converted into buildings, insulation
foam can be turned into hills, and you can use rocks and pieces
of wood to make all sorts of interesting terrain. The only limit
to the hobby is your imagination!
Collecting Beastmen
If you enjoy the Beastmen models that come with this set, here
are some units that you can add to your army in order to create
a sizeable and varied force:
• 1 Beast Lord
• 1 unit of 3 Brutes
• 1 unit of 10 Raiders
• 1 unit of 5 Harpies
• 1 Cyclops
Collecting Duchies of Vinci
If you enjoy the Duchies of Vinci models that come with this
set, here are some units that you can add to your army in order
to create a sizeable and varied force:
• 1 Vinci Leader
• 1 unit of 5 Assassins
• 1 unit of 5 Scouts
• 1 unit of 3 Automa Brutes
• 1 Support Wagon

More Ways to Play
There are lots more ways for you to play the games, many of
which you can get for free on our website.
There are Mission Cards which give you varied and dynamic
objectives to fight over, as well as Campaign Rules that link
together a series of games, with armies growing and evolving
throughout the campaign. We also have Solo & Co-Op Rules
for those that are looking to play by themselves or together
with friends against AI controlled enemies.
Aside from those, you can also buy expansions that provide
you with lots of ways to customize your games further, or that
provide completely new ways to play the game, as well as
narrative campaigns that see you play as mighty heroes that go
on grand adventures with epic storylines.
Exploring the Universe
There is a whole universe to explore with Age of Fantasy,
featuring dozens of factions, heroes, conflicts, and much more.
Make sure to check out our website to find free lore for all of
the factions and the universe, as well as short stories, comics,
and more background stories.
Additionally, you can also learn more about our universes by
buying narrative campaigns, faction guides, books, and story

Skirmish, we have lots more games for you to explore, which

AP: Targets get -X to Defense rolls when blocking hits.

(only the original hit counts as a 6).
Headtaker: This model gets AP(+2) in melee against units where most

with most wounds in the unit until it is killed, before starting to put them on
the next tough model (heroes must be assigned wounds last).

Special Rules

AP: Targets get -X to Defense rolls when blocking hits.
Automa: Whenever this unit fails a morale test, it counts as passed instead.

more hits than models in the target unit.
Deadly: Assign each wound to one model, and multiply it by X. Hits from
Deadly must be resolved first, and these wounds don't carry over to other
models if the target is killed.
Good Shot: This model shoots at Quality 4+.
Regeneration: When taking a wound, roll one die. On a 5+ it is ignored.
Rending: Targets get -1 to Regeneration rolls, and unmodified results of 6 to
