Ivan Sorensen, the author of Five Parsecs From Home, has the third edition of Five Leagues From the Borderlands, available on pre-order. It’s the first time the game has been in print.
The solo and co-op wargame has procedurally generated experiences in a monster plagued fantasy world. It’s available via Modiphius with the pre-order open at the UK and US stores.
The game can be played with minis in a space as small as 2 by 2 feet. Any minis will do provided you have some d6s, d% and some way to keep notes. It’s designed with solo gaming in mind but can be used co-op.
Five Leagues From the Borderlands has 100 different enemy types, 17 unique foes and 6 scenario types.
The feature list promises;
- Fast-moving and miniature agnostic rules.
- The ability to create a Warband of adventurers and follow their story.
- World exploration and mapping.
- Quests.
- Random tables.
- Difficulty modifiers.
As the first of the shambling monstrosities stepped into the torchlight, they clutched their weapons tighter. The air was thick with the smell of fey sorceries. Nobody would rest tonight.
The third edition of Ivan Sorensen’s Five Leagues From the Borderlands puts you in command of a warband of hard-worn adventurers fighting to reclaim the land from the sinister forces that threaten to envelop it in darkness.
