Time to put those random, cool Sci-fi miniatures to work.

HARDWIRED is a fast-play, Co-op skirmish game for 15-28mm miniatures. Pick a mission, create a team of Agents, grab your mirrorshades, and go.

Now available at Amazon and Wargame Vault. Print version on the way.

Thanks for looking.

Is this an updated version?

I was just thinking that these rules would be fun for a wargame based on the new PC game "Void Bastards":

..which is admittedly tongue in cheek but is a total riot.

Yes.

Just purchased. Looks interesting!

Personal logo Dentatus Sponsoring Member of TMP Fezian04 Jun 2019 6:10 p.m. PST

Heh.. I'll have to look into Void Bastards.

And thank you, Soaring Soren.

Personal logo Dentatus Sponsoring Member of TMP Fezian04 Jun 2019 7:30 p.m. PST

This is indeed the polished, updated version. With original artwork, new Agent class, Abilities and Equipment.

Hmmm, very much in the category of 'damn, someone beat me to it…so I can move onto something else!'

Print version will be through Wargame Vault or..?

Personal logo Dentatus Sponsoring Member of TMP Fezian05 Jun 2019 11:54 a.m. PST

Amazon for now.

Oddly, Wargame Vault is much more particular in their formatting requirement for print pdfs. I don't have InDesign and I spent my budget on cover and interior art. Down the road, if there's a demand for print version at Wargame Vault, I'll hire someone to format it.

Sample Agent Profile

Dirt-poor, orphaned at age 11, living on the streets from then on, Isaac is still considered lucky; he grew up in a Lower New Kowloon rim precinct – one of the districts situated at the edge of the mega-city that gets natural sunlight.

Slight, smart, quick on his feet, tech-savvy, it's no surprise Isaac was drawn toward cyberspace to hustle out a living. Not just to survive either, but to escape the filth and violence of LNK's gutter punks and street species.

A bona fide Splicer, Isaac runs with the Blue Rose crew and is never seen without his heavily modded Korean Robotics Industries ‘Dokakaebi ‘ drone and his custom, smart-linked Lebedev PL-23 pistol.

While he does have a regular crew, he's not adverse to side work. Log into the Totchka Darknet Market and post a message at marrowroad39 with details. If it scans, someone will be in touch.

Don't you also have Zona Alpha coming out from Osprey later this year? Is that a different system, or the same engine as this set of rules?

Personal logo Dentatus Sponsoring Member of TMP Fezian11 Jun 2019 7:05 p.m. PST

Yes, Zona Alfa is coming. Osprey has it slated for Jan. 2020.

ZA is a different system: two player, D10s, skirmish-level, alternating activation, factions, environmental effects, salvage/anomalies…
