Rise of the Occulites first game on Kickstarter Jan 2013
« on: November 29, 2012, 09:41:18 AM »
After many years of hard work crafting and developing the Rise of the Occulites setting, the first game in the Rise of the Occulites Saga, “Dawn – Rise of the Occulites” will launch with Eagle Games on Kickstarter in January 2013.



The game sees you in control of a Tribe of Occulites, fighting for survival throughout a series of scenarios that can be played as one offs or as a full blown campaign.

Play simple pickup games with the introductory rules, or watch your Tribe advance and evolve over the course of a Sungem Season, whilst gaining Learned Abilities through your actions on the board.

Dawn – Rise of the Occulites uses a mechanic called the “Natural Selection Deck” that determines how you move, fight and resolve situations within the game. The way you manage this deck will reflect how well your Tribe does in any given scenario.



With figures sculpted by the brilliant Bob Olley and components produced by Eagle Games, the quality of Dawn – Rise of the Occulites will be excellent.

Immerse yourself in a unique story and setting that tells of the Occulites discovery and the evolving history of the them and their lands.

So with January only a short time away, now is the time to prepare for Dawn – Rise of the Occulites.

We hope you’ll spread the word and pledge towards the game, as this is one discovery you won’t want to miss!

Cheers,
Ben Boersma and the Eagle Games Team.

G'day Rob,
From someone that seems to love frogs as much as I do, maybe I shouldn't be surprised.  :D
The Palaudis Tribe are based on Frogs, so they are my favourites.
Cheers,
Ben.
