The fantasy skirmish game arrives with campaign play, monster cards and small, story-driven warbands.
TL;DR
The Brigands of Arja Kickstarter is now live and fully funded.
• Warbands of 3–6 miniatures designed for fast one-hour skirmish sessions.
• Includes monster cards, campaign rules and exclusive Kickstarter-only content.
• Great crossover potential for players who enjoy adaptable gang-based systems like Gangfight.
Firelock Games has officially launched the Kickstarter campaign for Brigands of Arja, and it has already reached its funding goal. The game focuses on compact fantasy warbands of three to six models, supported by a quick-play ruleset built around fast, one-hour battles.
The campaign system tracks a warband’s “infamy” across multiple games, giving players persistent progression without the complexity of larger wargame campaigns. Preview materials highlight high-detail miniatures, striking fantasy art and ready-to-use cards for monsters, characters and scenarios.
A Kickstarter-exclusive barbarian miniature is featured as part of the launch offerings, along with multiple pledge tiers aimed at both newcomers and experienced skirmish gamers. Everything is built for easy setup, fast play and replayable campaign structure.
Why It Matters for Skirmish Gamers
Brigands of Arja adds a fresh, streamlined fantasy option to the tabletop scene. With small model counts and short play times, the system fits perfectly into hobby nights or quick weekend sessions.
For Gangfight players, the warband structure mirrors our own system’s footprint. The miniatures and profiles can be easily adapted into custom gangs, letting players drop new fantasy characters into Chronicle or other settings without heavy conversion work.
