OUR STORY
Age of Miniatures is started by Peter Thuborg with one single article: a beginners guide to the game Warhammer: Age of Sigmar. The article was a hit, and it showed that quality beginner content in the about miniature games was lacking. The site was then very slowly built out with more content about that game.
In 2018 Peter decided that the site could be more than just a helpful blog about one game. He saw a general problem with lack of information for new players in various games and hobbies, as well as quality content for experienced gamers.
The domain was moved to Age of Miniatures and the company was officially started. Besides Peter, the content creators are various hobbyist that are paid as freelancers to write about various miniature related gaming and hobby stuff. They all share a passion for what they write about and it shows in the style and the content. This is their hobby and free time, not their job.
The Mission: to provide the best possible content about miniature games.
Think about the most spammy and awful sites out there in your hobby and game niche. We want to be the opposite of that! We want to be a breath of fresh air and quality on a web filled with mediocre/poor stuff that just want you to click and get lost.
