Latest Updates from Our Project:
March Production Update

Hello, everyone!
Welcome back to the world of Nova Aetas Renaissance with a new update on the production of Wave 2!
We apologize for missing the February update. With the Chinese New Year coinciding with a period when factories are largely shut down for the holidays, there was no significant news to share last month.
Now that the break is over, the factory has resumed printing the miniatures and has sent us new pics to share with you, which we’re sharing in this update.
Miniatures production is progressing well, and once it’s complete, we’ll move on to producing the plastic trays for the new expansions and the remaining plastic components, such as the deck builders and the new (spectacular) playmat.
Only once all the plastic components have been fully produced will we move on to the cardboard components, which are currently undergoing all the necessary draft revisions for final optimization.
Speaking of the cardboard components, we’d like to take this opportunity to let you know that the rulebooks for the Vesuviusand Under Siege expansions are now available in all languages on our Web App!
To pass the time, you can check out the many new features we’ve introduced with these expansions right away and get ready for what you’ll find in the Catacombs rules (coming in the next update), which will introduce a brand-new gameplay system to NAR, transforming it into a true Dungeon Crawler!
Before wrapping up this quick update, here’s the usual progress report. As you’ll notice, there aren’t any major changes since the last one, but that’s pretty normal at this stage since all the products are in production at the same time. It’s therefore understandable that all the expansions will be finished almost simultaneously.
As for the timeline, the factory expects production to be completed by the end of May, so we’re really almost at the end of this long journey!
That’s all for today! See you next month with a new update! As always, thank you for your support and patience!
January Production Update!

Hello, guys! Here are the images coming directly from the factory for the production of Wave 2!
As you can see, the final phase of mass production for NAR has officially begun and is already at a fairly advanced stage.
All the extensive optimization work carried out together with the factory’s technical team has paid off, resulting in miniatures of outstanding quality, both in terms of materials and level of detail. As always, our goal is to ensure the highest quality possible, so that your gaming tables look impressive and allow you and your friends to fully immerse yourselves in the story of the Nova Aetas Chronicles. And for those of you who enjoy painting, there will truly be plenty of fun ahead in the coming months!
As for the printed materials, as shown in our last update, we are continuing to work closely with the factory on the approval of all proofs, in preparation for printing.
We will keep you updated on the progress of production as the various processes move forward. In the meantime, below you can find our updated table showing the current status of all the products included in Wave 2.
That’s all for today! We’ll see you in about a month with new updates on mass production!
Last Christmas!

Hello guys!
We're back with the last Christmas update for this project! We're pretty sure that by next Christmas, everyone will have already played wave 2 of Nova Aetas Renaissance!
As we mentioned in the last update, all procedures for the start of mass production have begun, in particular, the checking of drafts and materials, on which the factory has started printing tests.
Notably, we have received a first production copy of the Vesuvius expansion, one of the first expansions to be completed, and we have begun preparing for mass production, together with the factory's graphic designers and technicians.
Here are some photos of this copy to show you the quality of the materials, which is practically the same as the copies you will receive at home in a few months.
After carefully examining this production copy and correcting a few minor details, we can assure you that the quality of Wave 1 will be maintained 100%, and you will also find improvements in the usability of the rules and materials, thanks to the feedback we have collected from players.
We will continue to keep you updated on production as the various processes move forward. In the meantime, we have updated our table with the new status of all the products that make up Wave 2.
That's all for now! We wish you all happy holidays and a happy New Year. See you in 2026!
November Production Update

Hello Guys!
We are back to update you on the progress of Wave 2 of Nova Aetas Renaissance!
We apologize for the delay in this update, but we preferred to wait until we had significant news to share with you... And finally, the time has come!
Let's start with the translations, which are nearing completion. Only the GER/FRA/ESP translations of the Catacombs expansion remain to be finalized, and we expect to finish them by the end of November.
In the meantime, we have started sending the files to the factory for the preparation of the printing of the graphic material for all the other expansions that make up Wave 2, to optimize time and be ready for the start of mass production scheduled for December.
The molds for the miniatures have been ready for some time, and with the closure of the Wave 2 Pledge Manager at the end of September, everything is ready for printing to begin!
We are thus on the verge of mass production, which, with the molds ready and the graphic files already being optimized, we expect will be much faster than normal, allowing us to ship all the goods immediately after the Chinese New Year, i.e., in February 2026.
We know we have asked for a lot of patience so far, and we understand how difficult it is to wait longer. But we can assure you that the commitment and care dedicated to Wave 2 surpass even that of Wave 1. We want these products to be the worthy and epic conclusion to your NAR collection.
That's why we're continuing to give you more spoilers! For example, one thing we realized we hadn't told you is that inside Catacomb, in addition to enemy cards from the new undead faction, you'll also find enemy cards from the undead versions of all the enemies from the Core Box!
That's right, every single enemy from the original game can be used in Catacomb in its undead version, with a new card showing its “zombie” illustration and new rules to represent its new, putrid condition.
These cards will greatly increase the replayability and variety of your raids in the Italian catacombs, and each “dungeon” will always be a different challenge.
Here are some of the zombie versions of old enemies created by our illustrator, Giovanni Pirrotta. We hope you like them!
That's all for today. See you in December for the last Christmas update of this project!

Scroll down for a full recap of everything included in Wave 2 — and make sure you don’t miss out on any of the exclusive content!
Playmat
NAR's playmat features a beautifully illustrated side, complete with an impressive hand-drawn and colored map of the Italian peninsula by Moreno Paissan.
The map will perfectly replace the one included in the Core Box to manage your Travel Phases even more immersively for the Main Campaign and Vesuvius. The other side displays images of NAR's protagonists and antagonists on the corners, leaving the center of the playmat free for use with any game!
Did you miss one or more issues of our Ashes magazine that contained miniatures and game materials for Nova Aetas? Fear not, you can now purchase the four issues of Ashes with materials for NAR individually!
You will also be able to purchase some of our most beloved cosmetics, such as the handy wooden Bowls to keep your tokens and acrylic cubes neatly organized, and the brand new Deck Holdersfor standard-size cards, in which you can place Enemy Cards, Event cards, and Exploration Mission cards! Deck Holders for mini cards are also available again!
Dice Set
After selling out with the first wave, we decided to reprint them to give everyone a chance to have them. Each set contains 8 dice of one color (green, yellow, purple, red, blue), which is very useful to give all players their own set during a game!
This may be the last chance to buy them, don't miss it!
Pope & Doge Expansion
The campaign path opens up to two alternative endings! On one side is Pope Julius II, corrupted by dark cults and determined to awaken unspeakable powers; on the other is the Doge of Venice, who sees in the Blood of Gaea not domination but the transformation of flesh and steel.
Two missions lasting over 150 minutes each, full of revelations, unexpected alliances, and choices that will weigh on the fate of the entire saga.
A new campaign continuing the story of your mercenary company, consisting of 10 new missions! On the slopes of the volcano, mysterious and monstrous forces are preparing to unleash an unparalleled catastrophe. Will you be ready to stop the Cyclopes and their King Vesuvius?
Experience the siege of Rome as a protagonist with a fast-paced 12-mission campaign that closes the History of your mercenary company. Fight against starvation and the imperial army laying siege to the Eternal City! Brynhldr the Lancer is the new hero who will help you in this epic undertaking!
Magister Carnis has awakened nightmarish creatures in the depths of the catacombs beneath Italy's major cities; it will be up to you to clean them out and make the best haul possible!
Catacombs transforms Nova Aetas Renaissance into a full-fledged Dungeon Crawler, with a new type of Side Missions: the Catacomb Expeditions, to be played between campaign Missions!
Undead and other nightmarish creatures will try to drive you from their realm, but you can count on the new Hero: Luca the Graverobber, a rogue with a passion for discovery and knowledge!
Also includes a 3-mission mini side-campaign that will guide you to discover the secrets of the Domus Aurea and its stout owner!
A kit dedicated to the lucky owners of Nova Aetas, the first LMS game released in 2016. This kit allows a large number of the old miniatures to be used in Nova Aetas Renaissance as well!
Artbook
A valuable volume that will take you into the world of NAR with lots of illustrations, preparatory sketches, and stories to go deeper into the background. A must-have for anyone who wants to learn more about the background of NAR!
This last opportunity should not be missed if you want to continue your journey into its fascinating world!

All materials will be shipped together, regardless of the language you choose.
