Nova Aetas: Renaissance – Kickstarter

Let yourself be captivated by the magical atmosphere of Nova Aetas Renaissance! Set in a fantasy Italian Renaissance, this game will bring you into a  mythical campaign, based upon historical events of the war between Rome  and Venice in the early 1500s.

Nova Aetas: Renaissance is a reimplementation of our first game, funded  on KS nearly 5 years ago. This new, improved version is born from the  experience gained during these years, it will give you a deeper  experience by immersing you and your group in a charming and mysterious  Italy, full of historical characters such as Leonardo da Vinci, Caterina  Sforza, and many others – both real and imaginary.

Designed by Andrea Colletti and Luca Bernardini (founders of Ludus Magnus Studio, developers of the first Nova Aetas and Sine Tempore), Nova Aetas Renaissance will offer you fantastic adventures, with exploration mechanics perfectly paired with character development, and an exciting combat system.

In Nova Aetas Renaissance up to 4 heroes will face a campaign of 26 missions, containing 6 different endings. Choose your hero and immerse yourself in the Italian Renaissance, full of intrigues and exceptional characters.
Nova Aetas Renaissance is a dungeon crawler with a strong appeal to tactical RPG videogames, where the artificial intelligence of the enemies will push your skills to the ultimate test. A fluid and dynamic turn system, as opposed to the classic “move and hit”, makes the responses of the enemies challenging and unpredictable.
Another special feature is between one mission and the next one, you will have the chance to visit cities and villages across Italy to develop your hero, crafting new equipment or finding secondary missions that will allow you to find new powerful weapons and armor, along with a rich and fulfilling story.

Immersive, story-driven exploration will bring the Italian Renaissance to life. A book with over 100 pages of branched story scripts will provide you many different paths to your goal, as well as several different endings to your adventures! You will be called upon to solve puzzles and find important objects that can help in future missions.

All models are in 38mm scale, in line with the most modern games. Below you can see our models compared to those of other popular games.

Here, you can get a better idea of the scale between the different Nova Aetas Renaissance models.

To create this project our sculptors, Fernando Armentano and Tommaso  Incecchi, out-did themselves, giving true life to the new models. Each  miniature has been studied and developed to provide the best possible result for the  final product.
The experience they acquired during the last few years gives us the  confidence to say that you will have in your hands some of the best  miniatures within the hobby industry.

Down Here you can see details in some of our models from other projects,  going from render to resin cast to final result (PVC).
We are using – and we will use – for this project one of the best factories in  this sector, the same factory that produced top recent games like  Tainted Grail and Nemesis.
