About the game

What you do in a play session

Imagine our subconscious as a constant battlefield, where fears and hopes materialize into bizarre forms. In Dreamblade, you step into the role of a 'Dream Lord,' a trained psychic tasked with diving into the depths of the Dreamscape—this ethereal realm that blends ancient archetypes with modern terrors. The goal? Simple and brutal: project your mind into this plane to dominate, protect, or simply destroy everything in your path. You will harness psychic energies to summon formidable creatures and command them in intense battles against rivals attempting to do the same. It is a collectible miniatures game where area control strategy and dice rolls determine who truly rules the dream realm. A quick heads-up: the game was discontinued in 2007, so the focus here is on the collector's market looking for various released sets, such as Baxar's War or Night Fusion. If you enjoy a dark fantasy atmosphere with a touch of horror and love building armies of detailed miniatures, Dreamblade offers a highly immersive tactical combat experience. Prepare your mind, because in the Dreamscape, the line between dreams and nightmares is extremely thin and the combat is relentless!
