Modiphius have announced that they're going to be working with Alvaro and Francisco Erize, the minds behind CLASH Of Spears to bring their twisted and horrifying world of Cohors Cthulhu to the tabletop as wargame.

Cohors Cthulhu - Adventure Wargaming In The Hidden War // Modiphius

The wargame of Cohors Cthulhu (which is also a roleplaying game on Kickstarter right now!) uses the core of the CLASH Of Spears mechanics but reworked to make us useful in a solo and cooperative adventure wargame. Set in the Roman Empire, you're Legionaries and the Tribes you've been battling against must now face a new foe in the form of cosmic forces and eldritch horrors that serve the outer gods!

The game has been designed for solo and cooperative play where you'll start out as a lone soldier fleeing a horrifying ambush before you slowly build up your force of Roman comrades and tribal warriors who are having to band together against this deadly threat. Corrupted Germanic Tribesmen, Atlanteans and foul cults will be looking to make your day pretty terrible!

A range of miniatures already exist for the game thanks to the Kickstarter for the roleplaying game (as you can see below) giving you an idea of what might be coming with the full game.

Kickstarter Miniatures // Cohors Cthulhu

Games will be played out in small skirmishes using these 28mm miniatures that will be produced in high-quality resin and as STL Files. If you're someone who has backed the roleplaying game and already got some of the miniatures coming, you'll be happy to hear that rules are being included for bringing your roleplaying characters into the wargaming setting!

Watch out for the Kickstarter for this wargame coming out in Spring 2024!

Could you be tempted by a mix of Ancient Rome and Cthulhu when it comes to wargaming?
