What is Aethersteel?

Aethersteel is a fast paced sci-fi miniature wargame packed full of intense strategy and wrapped in explosive unpredictability. In the Aethersteel universe, races are trapped on a dying planet battling for their very survival. Their only hope is to venture forth into unexplored alternate dimensions in search of new resources and safe havens. But they do not travel alone; for with them they bring the divine power of the heavenly beings known as Aeons.

You will take on the role of a commander, blessed by your Aeon with the courage to lead elite forces into battle and the power to call upon divine aid. In Aethersteel, your soldiers are represented by 28mm scale miniatures that each have their own unique weapons and abilities. The power of your Aeon is represented by your customizable Aeon card deck that allows you to surprise your opponent by altering the flow of battle at critical moments.
