Maach: A World Forged in Blood and Shadows.
Step into the visceral, gritty and dark fantasy universe of Maach meticulously crafted by Richard Combes.
Influenced by masters of the genre, Maach is a realm where the stakes are absolute, alliances are fleeting and peace is paid for in blood.
Maach is a world created by a pantheon of gods, where they lived and interacted with their creations – the Elves, Dwarves and Giants – for hundreds of thousands of years. The unexplained arrival of human kind threw their order into chaos, and after less than two generations of the short lived human race, the gods departed with a parting message of “we will be watching.”
