The game uses six-sided and ten-sided dice to determine outcomes when attacking, inflicting damage, and maneuvering on the playing surface. The system is simple and fast-paced thanks to a unique approach to combat situations. When rolling dice to attack another miniature, the result also determines the amount of damage for a successful attack. Iron Crown Enterprises (ICE) released the original Bladestorm in 1990, together with it’s own fantastic setting on the continent of Folenn. Today, Bladestorm can be used in its original setting or any background imaginable; movies, books, computer games, or your own imagination.
