Endless: Fantasy Tactics is a tactical miniatures game designed by On The Lamb Games. With a focus on boutique style miniatures and an art aesthetic harkening back to console RPGs of the 90s, you can build your own custom team of knights, wizards, and monsters. Equip them with items and pick their abilities. Fight it out in story scenarios, or recreations of your favorite games. A standard game takes about 20 to 30 minutes to play with 5-10 miniatures and uses a D6 pool-based system of gameplay.

You can download the Work-In-Progress Quickstart Rules here: link

Our goal is to get the initial figures sculpted and cast, and as we progress stretch goals add more artwork to the rulebook. For the Kickstarter and retail release, we've sorted starter sets into themed Elemental Crystal Chests, but you can easily pick and choose your perfect party once you have the models in your hands. Additional funding will be used to cover additional Crystal Chests and models added to each Crystal Chest, along with getting a printed Full Color Hardback edition made.

If you visited our booth at GAMA Trade Show or Adepticon you would have seen the first sculpt of the Sorcerer by Daniel Fokine. Brother Vinni has done the Dragoon, and we plan to have a number of talented sculptors join the range.

Endless uses 40mm (Avg to Top of Head) miniatures on a 25mm/1" square grid. Unlike most other miniatures games, Endless does not feature faction specific models. All models are available for use by any player, and can easily be mixed and matched to suit any personal taste or play-style.

What is the source for the word "Endless"?

My first thought was you were simulating Neil Gaiman's Sandman series published by DC Comics.

Setting that IP confusion aside, "Endless" is not much of a compliment as a game description.

I did try to download the free rules to see if there was an explanation, but the link doesn't work without an ID to log in to the site.

The world that Endless takes place on is tidally locked, creating an endless day on one half and endless night on the other.

We've been posting fluff on our website for the last few weeks if you'd like to read more: on-the-lamb.com/content

We're now past 100% and working towards stretch goals.

While we've run into a big of a snag with 2 of our high end backers canceling (due to Hurricane Sandy & Job Lost), we've decided to not go back on any of the stretch goals that have unlocked despite us loosing money to do so.

It'll end in about 21hrs, and we'd appreciate any additional pledges.
