Since 2004, ManorHouse has been developing a Miniatures department, whose purpose is to conceive and manufacture wargames and miniatures in 40mm scale.
Mindstalkers™ is the 3D "skirmish" wargame by ManorHouse Miniatures, conceived for 2 or more players. The time setting can vary among several historical ages and you can play it according to two sets of rules: as a "mere" historical wargame, or by adding the fantasy/science fiction rules (and specific miniatures).
It is an easy-to-learn game, but like chess there is a more complex aspect of the game and it requires applying valid and well thought-out strategies if you want to bring home the victory! Furthermore, since it is a skirmish game, three or four miniatures per player will easily be enough for hours of fun!
The miniatures are in 40mm scale and we produce them using very high quality white metal. Extreme detail accuracy, correct body proportions and historical "truthfulness" of all weapons and equipment make these models similar to bigger scale collection models. The whole product, starting from the game concept, to the design and to the finished product, is made in Italy (a touch of patriotism, please allow it!).
All the material required for playing the game - rules, expansions, markers, tales, cards and much more - is formatted in very high colour resolution, and it can also be downloaded for free from the game's Internet website, in PDF format, ready to be printed out. We will soon provide printed versions of the manual and of the playing material, along with "Starter Pack" packages if you prefer them to the classic blister (which includes only one miniature each).
At present, the first "mission" of the game takes place in the European and Italian middle ages (Year 1450 A.D.), and likewise the range of miniatures corresponds to this period, with the factions of the Duchy of Milan and the ones of the Venice Republic, the Teutonic Knights, the Knights Templar, the Knights Hospitaler... and more factions will soon be introduced. We are also developing the rules and the miniature series for the Science Fiction setting, where the main feature will be its extreme design originality and an unprecedented care for details!
You can take a look at the whole catalogue of ManorHouse Miniatures products (and purchase items!) directly in the "Catalogue e On-Line Store" section.
You can find all the miniature Galleries, all the downloadable playing material and still much more (news, tradeshow and tournament schedules, painting and modelling tutorials, lists of game clubs, background tales, PC backgrounds, Artworks galleries, Newsletters, photo galleries of the miniatures and settings,...) on the official Website:
