We’re working our way through the Stiletto Unit Miniature collection! Next up is the athletic Kutsutas. This energetic Stiletto teammate started out as an extreme sports athlete in her youth, garnering fame and recognition with her impressive physical skills. However, once she learned that Smertios Security was responsible for the death of her parents she…
Hi everyone! Another type of Anonassi frequently encountered in the early years of the Anonassi War is the Hellhound. Fast, stealthy and brutal, these creatures bear a passing resemblance to the hounds of mythology and, once again, the early name seemed descriptive enough to stick. Imagine running into one of these in the dark lands…
We had an amazing time at MCM Comicon over the weekend. It was great to see so many new fans as well as those who are already familiar with what we do. Thank you to everyone who stopped by and played a session with us, picked up a game, or just came over to chat….
Today’s featured image showcases Zeelaay, the Stiletto unit pilot and heavy weapons expert. This grim-faced warrior was the first to garner Steve Adam’s respect for his discipline and skill. What Zeelaay lacks in small talk, he more than makes up for in combat knowledge and sheer determination. He prefers to let his rocket launcher do…
Hi everyone! Today, I’m talking about the Rostov Clan. The third clan to join the group, the Rostovs are devoted to controlling information. They ensure that no-one finds out about the Chosen or the Anonassi War that is happening. For generations, they have dominated Harbour City and the battlefield within the Lost Lands with their tactical…

Hi everyone! An update today on the progress we’re making! As you know, the Era: The Empowered Player’s Guide is now complete. Proofreading of the entire story section (almost 200 pages of the Core Rulebook) is also complete, and the changes have been implemented in the files. I’m about to embark on two weeks of…
Today’s featured miniature is Stiletto Unit sniper, Alex Gyter. This hot-headed member of the team is pictured with his two favorite pastimes; a deadly long-range rifle and a bottle of liquor. Gyter may enjoy a few too many drinks now and again but when it comes to defending Stiletto Unit he always comes through. Gyter…
Hi everyone! I have a brand new free short story from the world of our horror game Era: The Chosen today. We’ve had the pleasure of working with some amazing writers on this project, such as Jennifer Martin and Darren Pearce! This story is set in the first Era of the Chosen, when the Anonassi…
The time has come for all Evil Overlords to join in our newest adventure… pardon me while I break out my evil laugh, “Mwahaha!” Evil Overlords is our latest card game and this one is all about trying to create the biggest baddest evil minion army of them all. In order to do that you’ll…
As I’m sure you can tell by today’s feature image, I’m going to talk with you a little about our Consortium Miniatures project! Ed has loads of wonderful things planned for what’s coming next in the Consortium universe and one of the things we’re most excited to show you are these figures. So far, I’ve…
Hi everyone! Today, I’m talking about one of the kinds of Anonassi. The humanoid “Fallen” had the appearance of fallen angels in the opinion of the first Chosen, and the name stuck. The Fallen are remarkable for their telepathic powers, which make them the only Anonassi who have communicated with Humans. Alongside their terrifying appearance,…
Hi everyone! Progress is continuing nicely on Era: The Empowered. Tales of the Empowered physical books have now been sent out to all backers of the Tales of the Empowered Kickstarter, and are ready for the backers who requested it from the Era: The Empowered Core Rulebook Kickstarter! The Player’s Guide has now gone out…
In case you haven’t checked your mailbox lately, you should know that the Empowered Player’s Guide was released and delivered to backers this week! This is a fantastic book with loads of great additions and has absolutely everything you will need to play the game. So, just what’s inside? Ed and the team have written…
The Home Base Expansion book has been one of our more ambitious books in this latest series and I’m pleased to announce that it has officially been declared finished! The Home Base book is filled with numerous pieces of artwork and playable details that you’re going to enjoy. Ed and the team have worked hard…
Hi everyone! Today, I’m talking about the D’Aoust Clan who, I think it’s fair to say, are not generally viewed in a positive light by the other Clans… “They are dwarfed by what they have found, small men made big by picking the bones of what came before.” The D’aousts are primarily dedicated to the…
As I promised you on Thursday, today I’m going to go over some of the ideas that Ed has for the Consortium’s next few books. We’d like your input into where we should head next so take down notes and feel free to give us a shout with your favorites! First up is the Company…
Hi everyone! The Lost Lands: what are they, how did they come to be? The answer to the second question, no-one really knows*. Theories abound, but they are all baseless. This area is some kind of “bridge dimension” between the mutually destructive dimensions of Aether and Erebus. Our universe is young, expanding and full of…
Hi everyone… I’m really sorry to have to announce this, but several risks I have been monitoring for a while have unfortunately come to fruition and we won’t be able to deliver the Core Rulebooks before the end of May. I could try to rush this, but it would mean cutting out a LOT of…
It’s time to mark down another successfully completed Expansion book! The team has worked hard and finished Time Travel Part 4 which has now been sent out to all backers. The printers are currently working on producing the physical copies. That’s one more Consortium Expansion down! Home Base is still being developed but we’re getting…
Hi everyone! I’ll get back to another of the clans soon, but by now, you’re probably wanting a little more information on what the Anonassi are. They are the denizens of the dark dimension known as “Erebus”. Upon discovering the Lost Lands and the humans who live within it, they conquered it and began to…
Hi everyone! Here I am with another update. Today, I’m going to talk Equipment – we’ve been working through it over the last few days and it’s looking fantastic! Here are a few samples: As always, we have a nice selection of equipment, alongside the Empowered Abilities, which you can use as well or instead…
As the Home Base Expansion book continues to take shape we’re also looking forward to an increase in available adventures for the entire Consortium series. Ed has put out a general call for writers to join this project and several people have already come forward to help out. We’re looking to grow the number of…
Hi everyone! I’m finally ready to talk clans with you guys, and I’m starting with the Garcia Clan! Danielle, who you already met, is at the end of the timeline, in the final of the three eras. The clan, however, has been a central part of the war with the Anonassi since the very beginning:…
Hello, all you fabulous game lovers out there. Today we’re heading in many different directions so hold on as I take you through a bunch of great things that we’re currently working on. As I mentioned last week, the Battlecruiser Alamo RPG Kickstarter is well underway and has been growing steadily. Thank you to everyone…
Hi everyone! Here’s the latest on the Era: The Empowered Core Rulebook development, right from the source. We’ve been working hard, and we’re making some great progress. I’ve finished all of the Locations in the game now, so that brings the Part 1 writing to completion, apart from 5 more stories, all of which are…
I’m taking the day off from Consortium announcements today to talk about one of our biggest events of the year; the MCM Comicon convention in London. Ed and the event team spend countless hours going over every detail to make sure your experience with us is top notch. When you visit our booth we’re ready…
The first days of the Battlecruiser Alamo Kickstarter have already been great. This fantastic RPG based on Richard Tongue’s expansive military sci-fi novel series is your first-ever chance to experience the author’s vision of his universe through an immersive style of gaming. There will even be some newly added details that everyone, including steady followers…
Hi everyone! Today, I wanted to show you what I’ve been spending a lot of time on recently – a Power Tree for the Core Rulebook. This is one for a more unusual power out of the 45 I’m doing: Psychometry. This power was suggested by one of our playtesters, Mark Haines, and was very interesting…
Hi everyone! This is Part 2 of the “The Truth Behind the Legends” story. I’ve also included the title image here, because that is Danielle Garcia herself, one of the greatest Chosen of the gun-toting Garcia Clan! Each of the Clans has its own identity, which I’m sure I’ll explain to you in the near…
