D&D 5E - Wild Beyond the Witchlight Features Warduke & More!

While we've had the back cover text for some time, Amazon has revealed more information about the Wild Beyond the Witchlight! The adventure includes Warduke, a figure dating back to the 1980s, and indicates that all encounters can be resolved without combat. The book also includes two new races...

And here's Ringlerun, painted by Jeff Easley for the AD&D Player's Handbook back in 1983!

Had no idea the '83 cover wizard had a name!

 

[EthanSental]

Perfect, both easy preorders for me!

Pretty sure we had a Warduke miniature back in the 3e random booster era. I think i still have him in a cupboard somewhere. Nothing like as well painted as this one though...

 

[Professor Murder]

Buying these.

 

[The Glen]

Yay Warduke is still a southpaw!

The new Warduke mini alone is worth the price of admission.

Yay Warduke is still a southpaw!

Everyone armed with a single weapon except Ringlerun appear to be southpaws. I don't know if I've ever seen pre-painted miniatures on the market that looks as good as these. Is that actually what the finally product is going to look like?

Here's a preview map of Warduke's homeworld: MOTHERLAND—The World of ADVANCED DUNGEONS & DRAGONS Action Figures.
From an upcoming aficionado-crafted worldbook. Michael Gray co-designed the world. Mike is the author of the only D&D adventure (prior to Witchlight) to feature Warduke: the 1984 module XL1: Quest for the Heartstone. He chose the world to be square, selected the shape of the continents, and designed many other features of the setting; for example, he named the duchy of which Warduke is the "duke" of: the Duchy of Wargrave!

Those aren’t painted minis, they are just 3d computer renders. Wizkids does that with all of their products. Very misleading.
