From the press release we received:

Song of Blades and Heroes is a fast-play, skirmish-level fantasy miniature system for two or more players. The rules are simple, fast, and above all, fun.

EASY:
simple and easy-to-understand rules that you learn in just one game;
EASY MEASURING:
no counting inches or centimeters. SBH uses three measuring sticks to measure all distances and ranges;
FAST:
A game lasts 30-45 minutes. Play a mini campaign in a single evening;
INEXPENSIVE:
5-10 models per player are needed;
CONVENIENT:
the game needs little space – a 60x60cm play area is enough. Bring all your armies in a shoe box!
MULTI-SCALE:
play with any single-based fantasy miniature, in any scale;
HEX-FRIENDLY:
play on hexgrids if you prefer;
NO WEIRD DICE:
SBH uses standard six-sided dice only;
READY TO PLAY:
stats for 180+ monsters and heroes are included, and you can create your own!
NO BOOK-KEEPING:
SBH is an action-point system that requires no book-keeping and always keeps players on their toes;
HIGH SOLO PLAYABILITY:
the SBH mechanics work well in solo play;
CAMPAIGN:
with campaign rules, your warband grows more powerful after every battle;

Six basic scenarios included.

SBH is the first of a line of games designed to be quick, inexpensive and requiring very little space.

Skirmish packs of 15mm fantasy miniatures are available from Splintered Light Miniatures. Every skirmish pack (Kobolds, Bugbears, Skeletons, Lion-Men, etc.) has enough models to build a large warband.
