WELCOME TO THE FALLEN CITY
Hello!  I like dark elves too much and this game is the gestated result of that hyper fixation.  I've been working on this for about a year and a half. Currently in a play-testing stage.  Thanks for your time and I hope you like my malcontent nightmarish brain offspring <3 <3 <3 happy raiding!!!

OVERVIEW
Elfkin is a 28mm tabletop skirmish scale wargame that uses social mechanics. Set in the distant future, each player controls the actions of an elven squad of their choosing. Players express themselves with this squad both on the battlefield  (Combat Phase) and off. (Social Phase) The Social phase allows each squads members to become intertwined and further primed for conflict, as well as offer time for surgery, chem use, and recreational time.

Basics
Elfkin is miniature agnostic and uses 28mm or 32mm models . Dice used are the D10, D6, and D4.  This game uses inches in measuring distances.  The game uses alternating activation. A standard game table is 36" by 36"


GAME FEATURES
-Social Phase : Each model in your squad may make one social action. This phase further entangles the backstory, current conflict, and character dynamics between the two squads.
- Behavioral : Stress, chems, and psychic spells can cause models to behave on their own. Models can miss social phase, attack their own squad, or loose a turn mutilating  the dead under the  right influences
- Surgery: Change squad roles by going under the knife,  or  disfigure and demoralize  your captives!
- War Chems: Improve your squads performance with a multitude of substances, or dose the enemy squad!
-Horror (captives / war-chaff): Instead of just killing your opponent, why not drag them back to your lair via harpoon for induced surgery ! Use mortal shields to soak enemy fire. Drug, and slaughter your way through lovers, friends, and enemies alike
