There are three green accuracy dice that offer negative modifiers to the skill dice and nine effect dice, three each of yellow, red and black each colour being more effective respectively. Depending on the model you are using, and the action you are carrying out, you may also get to roll a number of the coloured D6s. Between these and the other attributes of endurance, intelligence and wisdom, you can carry out a variety of other things such as magic attacks, or non-offense skill tests like lockpicking or speech. Taking aim with a bow? Then you will need to roll against your agility attribute. For example, swinging a melee weapon at a Draugr’s head will require you to roll against the model’s strength. This is done using the white skill dice on which you need to get a result equal to or lower than the target number, based on the model’s attributes. A number of these actions will require a test. The basic gameplay is straightforward, with each player controlled miniature getting two actions from those available, including attack, block, and even pickpocketing. There’s also a strong case to be made for bringing your own Skyrim flavoured gangs to the game. Whilst this does mean that options are limited, it certainly looks like Modiphius have grand plans to release more warbands in the future. The current range of miniatures include a starter faction box set for the Imperial Legion and Stormcloaks as well as a Delve Set offering a Dragonborn miniature and Skeletons and Draugr. Building them was somewhat challenging as some of the miniatures had as many as 12 pieces, but this allows for more dynamic poses so is worth it in our opinion. They are nice sculpts with a good level of detail.

The miniatures themselves are in 32mm scale available in both hard plastic and, if you prefer your minis a little more detailed, resin. The difference between the two modes largely being whether you are playing against game controlled adversaries, or against another player with adversaries still appearing to get in the way.Īs you would expect with a wargame inspired by Skyrim, it is being released with a number of miniatures depicting heroes, soldiers, and adversaries that you will recognise. Both play styles can quickly be picked up from the scenarios listed within the quest book, although there is plenty of scope to easily create your own.

The Elder Scrolls: Call to Arms is a skirmish level wargame that comes in two flavours, either solo (a blessing in these times) utilising the rules for ‘Delve Mode’, or you can go head to head with other players in ‘Battle Mode’.

Modiphius has had a crack at recreating the feeling of The Elder Scrolls, and Skyrim in particular, for this outing. For adventurers that have taken an arrow to the knee, there’s few better ways to relive your glory days than on the tabletop.
