Forgotten Empire is the realm in Bloodfields that allows you to combine miniatures from the iconic Dragon Empire collection and the Mythoborn Yokai army. Forgotten Empire is a secluded territory that develops on its own, separated from other regions. As a result, it has its own rich culture that has been growing over centuries. It is a land of myth and wonder where tales become reality and where great armies with even more spectacular warriors roam the land. Citizens of the Forgotten Empire are driven by honor and a code of morality, they respect the power of nature and live in harmony with the mystical beings of this land. By the beings, we mean Yokai, mysterious ghosts born from tales. The various spirits have diverse natures and can be helpful or vicious depending on the story but they are always treasured as a part of the Forgotten Empire’s folklore.
Forgotten Empire is the only realm that features just two armies. The realm makes up for it with Dragon Empire being one of the biggest Bloodfields collections when it comes to a variety of models. In the Dragon Empire army, you will find the miniatures from our most popular wargaming line inspired by the far-East. This includes ninja miniatures, samurai miniatures, dragon cavalry, dragon mages, miniatures representing the emperor’s warriors, and members of his court and council. The second army in the Forgotten Empire realm are Mythborn Yokai. The folklore ghost miniatures residing in this faction come from local legends. Among the miniatures, you will find many Chinese and Japanese creatures including kitsune miniature, oni figures, koi fish models, and other creatures of wonder including a giant sparking phoenix mini that is the staple of the army.
Dragon Empire is a very popular pick among Bloodfields players due to many strategies that can be executed with their deep pool of models. The core mechanic of Dragon Empire is a Dragon Missile. This powerful magic attack can be found not only on the unit cards of mages. Every destroyed Dragon Empire warrior releases their dragon soul upon death to strike back against their foes in the form of a Dragon Missile. Many units will further enhance all the blazing missiles with their passive abilities or allow you to cast them from unpredictable angles. Because Dragon Empire features a lot of cheap characters, you will find yourself with a lot of tricks and options to disrupt the enemy’s strategy. Restoring health, taunting foes, long-range attacks, and skills that cover a huge area will all be at your disposal when you embrace the Dragon Empire playstyle.
Mythborn Yokai feature one of the most interesting army mechanics in Bloodfields fantasy skirmish wargame. The Yokai player begins the game with a Yin-Yang coin that flips between the dark side and the light side each round. The Yin and Yang are connected to the abilities on Yokai cards. You will find that some of your spirit units are stronger depending on the phase. Malicious spirits will therefore be more potent during Yin and graceful yokai ghosts will have their full power unleashed during Yang. Furthermore, depending on the phase, all Yokai that are destroyed will release a nova blast that either damages or heals surrounding units. Although this mechanic is similar to the one of Dragon Empire, it requires some careful planning, as it can turn out you will damage your allies or restore health to enemies. Finally, as Yin-Yang can be tricky, Yokai can, once per game, activate a powerful Yin-Yang phase that combines both powers and makes all your units draw from the power of both good and evil.
