Kings of War: Vanguard

About this board game

Kings of War: Vanguard is a tabletop fantasy skirmish game for 2 players, with games lasting around 60–90 minutes. Create a warband of 28mm elite fighters, develop their abilities, and battle through rich, in-depth scenarios.

In Vanguard, victory can be decided before the main armies ever clash. Commanders rely on small, trusted bands to disrupt vital supply routes, light beacons that warn comrades of enemy movement, and seize winning positions across the battlefield. These brave deeds can shape the outcome long before the troops have mustered.

Each game gives your warband its own story as fighters face dangerous missions and brutal combat. Familiar concepts from Kings of War are combined with exciting new elements, making the game accessible while offering a focused skirmish experience for elite bands.

• Create and develop a personal fantasy warband.
• Play standalone games or build a campaign.
• Explore scenarios centered on disruption, warning, and positioning.
• Use Vanguard as a recruiter product for the mass battle game Kings of War.

Kings of War: Vanguard can be played as a complete skirmish game or integrated with Kings of War games. Its retail range includes a hardback rulebook, faction starter sets, faction booster sets, Power Dice, and objectives and counters, providing the core products for exploring this elite-fighter battlefield.
