Ah yes, not ideal! The rulebook will be available through Wargames Vault soon. They print and ship in the US so that should make it easier.

If you like round houses, barrows and stone circles then Shivershield is the game system for you. ;)
Did you get to play on the Crannog at Salute?
The website is back! Stock has been updated, gaps should be filled over the weekend. The shop is still a temporary measure, full site to come sometime. soon hopefully.

And we are back. All post-Salute stock now in the webstore. Hopefully I'll get a full restock done over the weekend.
I have no power to do that unfortunately, but the tech guy is on it.
Oh dear. An unintentional update this morning has killed the website. Hopefully we'll be back sometime soon!
The Shivershield game run by members of the players' circle (with terrain by Battlin' Barrow) drew a lot of attention. Four rival bands attempting to plunder a barrow without disturbing the resident wyrm. Of course it got disturbed!
Thanks everyone who came to see us at Salute yesterday. A great day and our best yet. The demo table was constantly busy and the crowds at the stand always several deep. We'll be auditing stock and topping up over the coming weeks, aim to have the webstore restocked by the end of the month.
Thank you #salute #salute53 for a great day yesterday. I ran 3 demo #wargames of #shivershield for @oakboundstudio.bsky.social and the reception was excellent - although I think the superb crannog model was a big part of that!
Yep, stage 1 complete. Embarking upon stage 2 in half an hour or so.
Car full of stuff, ready for Salute tomorrow!
All done. Cases filled and ready for Salute 53!
Only a week until Salute! Aaargh! One more day of casting today should do it I reckon.
Oooooooooooh!
Oh, I won't be able to leave the stand! But I can check these guys out online thankfully.
Here's the stuff I'm excited about seeing at Salute (full guide in this Friday's 'The Acorn'). Less than two weeks to go! What are you most looking forwards to?
Perfect fit!
As is mine. :D
Want a good look at Shivershield before its big release? Check out April's edition of Wargames Illustrated.
www.beastsofwar.com/news/oakboun... our first Internet writeup! Solid in brevity and description 😁 #wargames #gaming #minis @oakboundstudio.bsky.social
I hate the Oxford comma, but it does have uses!
The new books have arrived! The evolution of The Woods continues. :) Pre-orders should be shipping next week.

There's a lot of stuff in my studio right now. Come see me at Salute and buy it all so I can have my hobby space back!

Yes. Salute is one of those occassions where so many brilliant people I see so rarely are all together in one place, and I don't get to chat to any of them!
That's day 2 of Salute prep done. 8hrs of casting, 9hrs of packing (no, not just these boxes, there's a whole load of individual figure packs too). About halfway there now I reckon.

I love seeing how people have painted our miniatures. Have you got any to share?
It's been a long day of casting today. I'm gonna be so stiff tomorrow... But, halfway there with Salute stock!
