Sounds fun! Is this going to be roughly based on the .45 Adventure system since Rattrap is producing it?

Will the rules be available from Rattrap or Brigade Games?

They will be published by Brigade Games. I will have a limited supply of the first packs of figures at Cold Wars along with a preview starter sheet of rules. The initial wave of figures will also go up online in the store for preorder before the end of the day. As the rules are going through a shakedown at the convention, if you are going to be there and are interested, get in the playtest.

This is a Brigade Games product. We are only producing it for them (as we have branched out into game design for others as well as our own products). :-)

This will not be based on the Rattrap system, though our philosophy about games should peak through the rules.

The games is squad based and uses d6s. It is designed for fast play and much mayhem!

Oh, and the Brute pictured on the cover… he gets stronger the more he gets wounded. :-)

This looks like an exciting product. I look forward to seeing more.

This sounds very cool, and the cover art definitely captures a GAMMA WORLD vibe… and that's a very cool thing.

richarDISNEY09 Mar 2009 10:37 a.m. PST

Sounds cool.

Squad based, huh?

Jay Arnold09 Mar 2009 10:38 a.m. PST

Rockabilly post-apocalyptic motor gangs … I'm sold.

vogless09 Mar 2009 10:50 a.m. PST

Could you PLEASE post the demo sheet in the forums or on you're site. I'd really like to see them…

Condottiere09 Mar 2009 11:38 a.m. PST

Good luck with this Rich and Lon. Looks like a blast.

Sooooo…who won the war "US", or The Godless Commie Scum????

Captain Apathy09 Mar 2009 11:45 a.m. PST

Count me in…

Let's just say there was a THIRD party involved. :-)

And between those pockets, battles rage between gangs of survivors (The 8th Avenue Greasers, The Michigan State Bowling League, and others)

As someone from Michigan I can assure you Our bowlers are pretty damn tough.

Captain Apathy09 Mar 2009 12:14 p.m. PST

Will the demo be in the vendors area, or elsewhere at the con?

Rattrap109 Mar 2009 12:23 p.m. PST

The demo will be on whatever free table we can find in the Distlefink room at about 9pm on Saturday.

Speed painters who can buy their figures on Friday and have them painted by Saturday night are welcome to bring them along and we'll throw them into the game as well. :-)

That depends on whether this is the State of Michigan Bowling League or the Michigan State (University) Bowling League. If the later with their green and white shirts, with the sparty logo, then they are a bunch of wimps – gutter balls. If the former, with a large number of Wolverines on board in Maize and Blue, then look out for all the strikes from them.

Sounds like good fun. Modern fantasy with out zombies, except maybe a few.

Well if those are My two choices then Maize and Blue but I also think Brown and Gold look good to.
