Confrontation is a skirmish-level fantasy miniatures game. The game pits small forces of 5-20 models against each other in small engagements while the wars rage across Aarklash.

Unlike most miniature games that I've played, Confrontation has an involved combat resolution system. Initially we had some trouble working with it, but once we got it under our hands, it moved quickly and gave us more tactical options than just throwing a handful of d6's.

What is the current version?

The current edition is Confrontation 3.5. This is an update of Confrontation 3.0 (hardback version) - it is a set of changes to the existing Confrontation rules, not a complete rewrite.

What is Dogs of War?

Dogs of War is an expansion to Confrontation that adds in rules for war band advancement, terrian, and nexus.

What are Rag'Narok, Hybrid, and Cadwallon?

Confrontation is just one of the games set in the world of Aarklash - Rag'Narok , Hybrid, and Cadwallon are others.

• Rag'Narok is a regimental-level game that uses the same materials as Confrontation - it's really Confrontation's big brother. Where Confrontation is about two small bands of fighters skirmishing, Rag'Narok is where whole armies clash.
• Hybrid is a dungeon-crawl type game where two players take on opposing forces in the lost mutagenic laboratories of the Dirz. Hybrid uses some of the same figures as Confrontation and Rag'narok, but it has different cards.
• Cadwallon is a role-playing game set in the world of Aarklash. It is set to be released this year, so check back for more information.
