Some folks out there might be familiar with this game/minis range out of France called
Hell Dorado. Awesome and interesting minis throughout the range!! Perhaps just as interesting is the concept for the game itself:
LOL ... I did a babel fish on the intro text block and here it is ... I like the translation as always odd sounding language but the back story for this game is rather novel/interesting and really dark (in a super cool way) ...
"1634… The voluptuous languages of the flames of the war lick the heart of the men… One commits suicide for the faith, the richness, the power, glory… Under mud and the debris, a door towards the hells s' is open. And they s' there engulf, by tens. Missionaries, conquistadores, colonists, roughneck soldiers, large captains… In bottom, c' is a New World which awaits them. A world d' hope, a world to be plundered, a world to be built. A world populated of demons which n' do not intend to yield an inch of their territory. A world invaded by d' other human, come d' The East to find l' result of their mystical search. A world where are terrent unnamable creatures, lost for any humanity. This world, c' is that of Hell Dorado, and c' is now your new horizon!"
Anyway it looks like Cipher Studios picked up the line as the US distributor also the Warstore is going to be stocking the game so I'm sure its only a matter of time before people get ahold of these pretty minis and start actually playing the game. No idea what the game plays like ... but again it looks interesting.

Those do look cool.
Ya I'm excited about the mini range if nothing else ... I don't know if I'll end up playing the game itself but I know for sure I'll be buying some of the minis. Really interesting blend ... some stuff that would work for pulp ... and some that is more Elizabethan/age of exploration ... along with lots of demonic/vile stuff as well. Really cool stuff all round though.
The minis are Yber-Cool! That fat demon sure is nasty :D I´ll buy these minis for sure... Hope you´ll post about the game if you have some news :)
I didn't realize you were from Finland ... I'm an American but my heritage is mostly finish (we American's tend to blended ... so I have German ancestry as well). At any rate Hell Dorado should be available in Europe right now the company that produces it is French I believe. So you might have more luck getting ahold of it sooner :)
Interresting heritage you have. Nice to hear youre almost Finn :)
I also have relatives in Northern America and Canada... For my grandpa´s brothers moved there after the war (WW2, and the shoot out with Russia). Their families and new generations sill live there...
Thanks for the Hell Dorado news! I will check it out :)
