Wargames Atlantic and ZombieSmith: Hard Plastic Quar!

Wargames Atlantic and ZombieSmith: Hard Plastic Quar!

We are very pleased to announce that we will be bringing ZombieSmith's iconic Quar to hard plastic in 2023! 

The first release will be a boxed game with a full rulebook and units of Crusaders and Coftyrans! 

But you ask - what are Quar!??!

The Quar are the inhabitants of a rugged, mountainous, and storm-wracked world called Alwyd. Their planet is warm, like ours, and shares many of the same characteristics. One notable difference, however, is Cythwyn - the Month of Storms. Every third year, at the end of the calendar, all of Alwyd is tormented by the worst storms imaginable. Sandstorms drop sand thousands of miles from the nearest desert. Snow falls in the tropics. Black blizzards scour croplands down to bedrock. Hailstones the size of mhudd balls pound the earth and crush anything unprotected. It is a terrible time, but the Quar are used to terrible things, for to be a Quar is to be resilient.

Quar are just like you and me - perfectly normal creatures, bereft of magic or supernatural powers or other-worldly technologies. They do eat bugs, though, and lots of them, which is why they have long, agile snouts and even longer tongues. Most Quar, when they’re not fighting each other over slights real or imagined, are farmers, or tradequar, or merchants. Mostly they live simple, happy lives. Mostly.

In their native tongue, ‘Alwyd’ means ‘home’, and to a Quar, nothing is more important. The patch of dirt, the tiny hovel full of kits and kin - these are the things most Quar gladly devote their lives to. Most Quar. But there are other Quar - ambitious, striving Quar - for which a mere warm bed and full belly are not enough. These are the ones that scheme, that connive, and their machinations bring whole nations and kingdoms into conflict. Constant conflict, brutal conflict, for the history of Alwyd is written in blood...

Has this box set been released as of yet?

Rhys - May 22, 2023

OH MY GOD YES. Please tell me you’ll be selling in the UK? I’ve loved Quar ever since I accidently found them, but the cost of US shipping has been crippling.

Mac - May 3, 2023

Are these still going to come out?

Axel - November 8, 2022

I managed to resist the Quar.
Until now.

A Plasticset?
That is ridiculous.

Now I need them…

I own a pile of these bad boys in 15mm but have since moved away from metal mini’s. This is awesome and I can’t wait to get this on the table with my kids.

Allan Goodall - November 5, 2022

I am so happy about this! I was looking to get some Quars, as I have a couple of the rule books, but I didn’t really want to buy the metal figures. Plastic would be great. Can’t wait for them to go into production.

They seems interesting, one could add them as enemies or allies in an hard sci-fi setting, where the “humies” are the aliens (for once!)

I wasn’t aware I needed trench warfare anteater people in my life. But here we are.

Simon Hutchinson - November 4, 2022

Wow this is amazing news. Ironically I just started painting a whole load of metal 28mm Quar a couple of weeks ago and have a load on the painting table right now.
