Welcome to Tékumel

You are about to enter the world of Tékumel, the incredible work of imagination by Professor M.A.R. Barker.

If you’ve never encountered Tékumel before, you’ve stumbled upon an entire world the equal of Tolkien’s Middle-earth in detail and wonder: thousands of years of history, entire languages, rich cultures, unique creatures, bloody conflicts and fascinating mysteries.

Recent news

MAR 2023 The Tékumel Foundation and Rob Smith of Great Hall Games are pleased to announce a new source of miniatures approved for Tékumel. A long-time Tékumel fan, and producer of Tékumel miniatures in the 1990s, Rob will be creating and selling new 3D printer STL files and print-on-demand miniatures approved for Tékumel.

The goal of Great Hall Games is to make new Tékumel-approved miniatures available for all Tékumel fans. We will produce miniatures for tabletop miniatures games and for roleplaying. In the near term, we will initially release miniatures via crowdfunding. These will be available as STL files that you can print at home, or supporters may also order any of the products as print-on-demand miniatures.

Great Hall Games hopes to be able to offer crowdfunding campaigns a few times each year. Most of these will be new miniatures, but we expect later this year to launch a campaign to support the release of a set of tabletop miniatures rules, Legions of Tékumel, along with supporting army books.

We at Great Hall Games and the Tékumel Foundation are very excited about this new partnership and we hope you will be, as well.
