Icarus Miniatures is a wargames company based in North Wales, UK. Our mission is to create the most narrative and cinematic games and gaming experiences on the market. We want to provide the framework for gamers to be able to create incredible stories on their tabletop; stories they’ll be re-telling for years to come.

 
We want our games to be simple to learn and quick to pick up and start playing, with added rules and complexity added on in a way that’s easy to learn but hard to master. We’re striving to craft a rich and living universe, with an overall storyline that will move forward as we do. We do not want a static universe like some games have.
 
We want the things that players do, in global campaigns for example, to have a real and lasting effect on the game universe. But at the same time we want to create a sandbox that each player can set up in and craft their own story and own the story in the way they want.

I've been a fan of tabletop games for almost 20 years now, and since then I've played dozens of games and owned thousands of miniatures.

Eventually, my love of miniatures became a business, and Icarus was born. We provide design services for other companies in the industry, including concept art, 3D miniature sculpting, and rules writing/consultation.

We've worked with over a dozen companies to make more than a hundred miniatures since we started.

Storytelling has always been my other passion, so it was inevitable that eventually I would start playing Dungeons and Dragons.

I got started during 3/3.5 and played off and on throughout school and university, though our campaigns never lasted more than a few sessions before fizzling out.

So eventually I decided the only way I was going to get the long-time game I'd always wanted was to step into the Dungeon Master role myself.

Now I make videos every week to help other people be better dungeon masters and game masters and have more fun with their friends.
