Age of the Tempest (Finnish: Myrskyn sankarit; formerly titled Heroes of the Storm in English) is a tabletop role-playing game, designed by Mike Pohjola and published by the board game company Tactic. The first part, Heroes of the Storm – Sword of the Great King was published in 2013 and retitled into Age of the Tempest – Sword of the High King in May 2014. Age of the Tempest – Sword of the High King (translated by Ville-Eemeli Miettinen) is about forest-dwelling rebels, who fight against the troops of the evil dictator.[1]
The role-playing game was first published in Finland in Finnish, and later internationally in English, initially as Heroes of the Storm, and finally as Age of the Tempest. The role-playing game is published as a boxed set, and is available in Finland in book stores, department stores and hypermarkets, as well as traditional gaming stores. International distribution will take most of 2013.[2]
The game was crowdfunded in 2012 with a campaign that gathered gamers both from Finland and all over the world.[3]
