<br />
Illustrator [[Gary Chalk]], known for his artwork contributions to the first six ''[[Redwall]]'' books, has launched a [https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1615043334/lone-wolf-the-board-game Kickstarter] to seek financing for a ''Lone Wolf'' board game, which is inspired by a 1980s series of fantasy gamebooks illustrated by Chalk. The project is seeking $30,000, and has raised $13,902 at the time of this writing.<br />
<br />
From its official description:<br />
<br />
:''Battle for Magnamund is a fantasy wargame for two or more players. Each battle pits :good against evil, and the core set sees the Human forces of Sommerlund in war against the :Giaks, murderous grey-skinned humanoids bred in the infernal city of the Darklords. :Players may control either an entire army or a single brigade on one side at a time. The :goal is to allow you to re-create any battle or scenario from the classic Lone Wolf books, :and the game comes with pre-made scenarios to start you on your way.<br />
<br />
:''The core game set consists of flat cardboard figures (3 mm thick and die-cut) in a :plastic base, played on card maps that are grid-based and modular. The maps are the same :material as in Cry Havoc, a previous (and popular) game of Gary's. In addition to being :fun, Battle for Magnamund is a showcase for Gary Chalk's inimitable 2-D artwork: all :components are illustrated by hand.<br />
<br />
What may be of particular interest to ''Redwall'' fans is the $30 pledge option - if one pledges this amount, they can receive a 120-page artbook (pictured) that covers Chalk's oeuvre, which features illustrations from the ''Redwall'' series, ''Sundered Lands,'' and others in black and white and color.<br />
<br />
The Kickstarter only has 18 days to go, and we hope Chalk is successful in reaching his goal.<br />
