Happy April! Benny here with the inaugural post of our brand new community and news blog on our brand new website! This website will be growing and expanding over the next couple of months as we bring in more subscription offerings onto the native site, relaunch our online store completely integrated into our members’ subscriptions, and where we can funnel all of our customers and backers into one place to make it easier to follow everything!
What are we going to go through in this post? Well, lots of stuff! Expect to see posts in the future a little more focused, but as this is our first one, we have a lot to talk about!

Brand New Sordane Publishing Website
As you can well see, you’re reading this post on our brand new website! Since we rebranded from Arcane Minis about 7 months ago, we have focused on giving our entire brand the face lift it deserved! This includes a brand new website and a new approach to keeping our community informed.
The current state of the website is mostly an informational and funneled view of our released and upcoming projects on both Kickstarter and in our retail store, but in the next couple of months we will have our subscription service fully launched for our up and coming revamped Skies Ablaze tabletop wargame and RPG airships. (Make sure you sign up to get notified).
We will be continually building things like wikis, download archives for our free files, and more. If you have any suggestions for things you would like to see on our new website, please let us know! Having the suggestions from the community is incredibly helpful!
World of Sordane April Release – Skies of Iron
Welcome to our newest release! We have a brand new race, the Astrar Dwarves!
Astrar Dwarves, some-times called sky dwarves by common folk, are known for their penchant for building upward rather than downward. Though they share the same core values as other dwarves—gods, gold, and clan—they differ significantly from their hill and mountain kin. The most notable distinction lies in their sense of justice. While dwarves are renowned for their grudges, Astrar dwarves reject this stereotype, often embracing an extreme form of forgiveness that borders on self-destructive. (Classes: Ranger, Wizard, Fighter, Monk and Artificer).
A release with new deadly monsters from Sordane the Brimstone Behemoth, the stoic Ironclad Sentinel, the inquisitive Cloudhoppers, the sticky fingered Renginite Collectors and massive Skyshard Golem on a 150mm base. Enjoy this lighter weight release in terms of writing and PDF’s, but much more STLs!
The reworked throwbacks: Alpha Ore Eater, Ore Eaters and the Arriax Dragon.
You also get them all in 15mm scale pre-supported in anticipation of our newly designed and scaled airships coming next month!

Aldarra Board Game 20% Discount (48 Hours Only!)
Aldarra has been fully fulfilled and on sale in our retail store for 2 months now and it’s been positively received by many people! We are very excited to have this product be our new mainstay in the store and are very very thankful to have imported our entire stock into the US before all the tariff stuff started up! With that said, we are not sure when or if there will be a second print run.. If the tariffs are here to stay, a game like Aldarra may be untenable on a large scale and would prevent a second print run. So if you ever wanted a copy, Now is the time!

Weretigers Board Game – Launches June 10th!
Finally for this update, we have Weretigers! Our brand new board game coming to Kickstarter on June 10th! We are extremely excited for this game. An opposite in scale and size from Aldarra, but it packs a punch of fun in a short play time. Perfect for a game night with the kids or waiting for friends to show up for your RPG night!
We will be releasing a tabletop simulator version of the game within the next couple of weeks so stay tuned for that as well!

Lost & Found Novel & More!
The final thing for this update is a little sneak preview of another new project we have been working on (one of three actually!) – Novels! Yes, that’s right. We have had a lot of people request it in the past and we have been working on these for almost 2 years now. The time has come to finally bring them to you all!
Starting from some time later this month in April or early May, you will be able to start reading chapters from the first novel we will release this year – Lost & Found! A swashbuckling adventure of a misfit party of adventurers.
Lost & Found Synopsis
The ancient city of Forastad has risen from the sea after two thousand years. Adventurers, explorers and treasure hunters from around the world flock to find out its riches, and uncover long forgotten mysteries. With nothing left to lose, Valdeer, a down on his luck bard with quick wit and a big mouth, heads to the city in the hope of getting a second chance at a better life.
