Atomic Tank Is Finally Here!

Atomic Tank boxed game

Hydra Miniatures is thrilled to unveil Atomic Tank: The Robot Wars, a fast-paced 10mm sci-fi wargame launching now. As the third game system in Hydra Miniatures' Retroverse, Atomic Tank expands the scope of conflict with epic-scaled warfare with streamlined, tactical rules designed for fast, cinematic battles.

What's Inside the Box

The starter set features two complete forces – the heroic Galacteers and the unstoppable Robot Legion – along with a 40-page full-color rulebook, acrylic counters, dice, and all components needed to start playing right away. Infantry squads, armored vehicles, giant robots, and heroic individuals are represented with finely detailed pewter and resin miniatures.

Fast, Tactical & Engaging

Atomic Tank uses an alternate-activation system that keeps both players constantly involved. Units fall into four straightforward categories, each bringing unique abilities to the battlefield. The rulebook includes six narrative scenarios and supports compact or large-scale games on tables ranging from 4′×4′ or larger.

Ready for Launch

Production is complete, with printed rulebooks, fully cast miniatures, and boxed sets assembled for release. Launching during Hydra Miniatures' holiday sale, Atomic Tank offers a vibrant, accessible entry point into the Retroverse. Early playtesters have praised its blend of speed, strategy and minimal bookkeeping.

A Growing Game System

This initial release is only the first step. Hydra Miniatures plans to expand Atomic Tank with additional factions – such as the Imperials, Valkeeri, and Zenithians – plus new scenarios, models and future supplements. Whether you're a longtime Hydra supporter or new to 10mm wargaming, Atomic Tank: The Robot Wars invites you into an exciting new era of retro sci-fi warfare.

You can purchase Atomic Tank: The Robot Wars for 10% off during the Hydra Miniatures Holiday Sale, which runs from now until December 2nd.
