G'day From the Slave Dungeon!
Welcome to another year, one that we are starting with a big release. From the brainchild of Sensei Kow Yokoyama, Slave 2 Gaming is proud to announce the release of Maschinen Krieger in 15mm.
This release is still fairly small with only five units per army, these being a testing of the waters for the Ma.K universe and a set point to planning for the future.
Before we go any further, there are a few people to thank for helping this to happen; however, I will keep it short. Kow Yokoyama (Creator of Maschinen Krieger), Scott Hards (Hobbylink Japan), Mike Broadbent (sculpting, molding and casting), Jayden Barr (Grand Scale Games), and Kye Moran (Killing Prints).
The first cab off the ranks is the Independent Mercenary Army (IMA). We see three types of Armored Fighting suits: AFS Mk 1, AFS Mk 2, and Super Armored Fighting Suit (SAFS).
We also see two different Walkers: the Jerry and the Goblin; the Goblin pack comes with both the Rotary Machine Gun and the Rocket Launcher attachments.
The Strahl Democratic Republic (SDR) also has three packs of Suits: the Konrad, Gustav and Heinrich.
The SDR has two packs of Walker, these being the Krote and Pak Krote.
All the suit packs have six various-posed figures, while each Walker pack contains a single figure. All packs are $13.50 AUD and are cast in metal. We do have limited stock with this release, but we can restock within a week, so we won't have a stock level on the website.
Now, there have also been some questions about rules for the figures. At this time, we have put up links on the Slave 2 Gaming website to the 1980s boardgame rules and our own house rule adaptation of these rules. We have also spoken to Robin Fitton to have cards made to use these figures to play Gruntz.
Our own plans to make an official Maschinen Krieger in 15mm will be based around how well the range does.
That's about all for now, you can check out these new releases plus all our other products at slave2gaming.com.
