Just letting you all know that I'm not dead. Well, not yet and definately not by a long stretch.The thing is, that I've had some trouble finding new stuff to work on in regards to Wasteland Chronicles, and the whole of the post apocalypse genre in all. Basically, I like to game a whole lot more than just the Wasted west. So, for those who are still interested in all of these scribblings and what

Today's post will consist of two Youtube clips that I found on the internet which I found to be more than delightful:Fan Trailer for Mad Max 2 - The Road WarriorBeautifully recut trailer in my not so humble opinion. I really like how it sets the mood of the movie; a whole lot more than the old trailer ever did (which you can, incidently also find on youtube).And then... there's this:Mad Max Music

The chitterbug is one of the largest predators to be found out in the wasteland. Standing nearly 3 meters tall when poised for an attack, this deadly crawler can lash out its four talon limbs with deadly accuracy and speed, severing limb by limb from the hapless victim in mere seconds. Leading scholars and scientists have reason to believe that the chitterbug is not ‘native’ of earth, as

Shorty and Bully are just two of the many children living in the Dust Falls community, under the guidance of 'Big' Sven. As is common in this age of post-Megadeath, everyone able to bear arms will do so when a settlement is under attack; even the children. As for Shorty and Bully, this has had the sideeffect of making them the notrious ringleaders of a small gang of children within Dust Falls,

One of the major car companies of the pre-Megadeath Northern States was the Pacific Motors Company; who had specialized in "cars for the average joe" as their slogan went. Among their more high profile cars were the model included above; The Cougar. It was a very spacious car, able to carry two adults and three children; had all the modern additions like A/C units, 8-track player, reclinable

The Huntsmen are among the most wellarmed forces within the Guild of Siliciums sacred halls, and one of the most dreaded sights across the wasteland - that is, if you are a mutant, deemed hazardous to the continued plans of the Guild of Silicium. The difference between the Huntsmen and the Relocators is more than just the weapons and armour that they are equipped with, it's also a difference of

Among the nomads, those lonesome wanderers of the wasteland, there has always been myths, rumours, legends and hear-says about the Nomad King. His origins are shrouded in mystery, but he was the one who would unite the explorers of the Springdale Vault under a new banner - The Nomads.Following the Megadeath War, the Springdale Vault was among the first to open its doors to the wasteland; and many

This is it then, the first foray into reviewing other game systems and a chance to give some rants and raves - as well as constructive criticism - for rules I've picked up over the years. Although slanted towards post apocalypse, I'll have to say that I'll list what other things the rules that I review can be used for (like Colonial, Pulp, Sci-fi, Fantasy, Horror, etc) as well as what they were

As with the Savages of yesterday, I've hit a golden streak in regards to getting some post apocalypse figures finished and photographed. With that said, here's some Slagger Beasts for your viewer enjoyment:Slagger beasts often take the form of a bipedal, humanoid creature which measures around 2 – 2,5 meters in height, but variants include specimens with a height of up to 4 meters.

Well, just a quick little update to let you all know that I'm still alive and doing very well. For gaming related purposes, then the Road to Avalon campaign got started last week, after having tidied up Version 1.0 (which is still undergoing layout and what not), and already I'm at the bottom of the ladder.Just goes to show that even though I designed the damn thing then I have no sense of

The new version is finally complete! And it can be downloaded from the link below:Road Warriors V. 1.0!(Just right click the link and select "Save As")That's right, I finally completed all of the text in the main document. An updated layout is well underway, with snazzy pictures and definately something that's going to chew up your printer something fierce! So I figured, why not just upload this

This is going to be a very short update in which I will show off my newest paintjob; the PAPA (Post Apocalypse Power Amour). And I also managed to take a few snap shots of some of my favourite Veterans of the MegaDeath/Partisans/Scavengers from Copplestone figures as well. I might just have to purchase another pack and paint them in more desert friendly fatigues than these. Anyway, pictures for

After having read this article on the Future Highways website; I immediately became inspired for a lot of new goodies to be had for even more vehicular mayhem! I kinda figure that the actual skirmish part of the rules are fine as they are; seeing as No Limits have all the rules really needed for skirmish gaming, I have therefore focused on bringing the vehicles to the front of the game. Oh, and

Today I went on a shopping spree, buying various bits and ends for conversion jobs of vehicles and some new terrain to boot!

Hi all!Sooo... It's almost a year since the last update. And why is that exactly? To be frank, lack of interest on my part for a shortwhile, followed by dabblings in other areas, eras, scales and what have you. But I've never forgotten my true love and now I'm back to give it a shot once more.Thus, it's time to get Road Warriors up to speed and into the big version One point oh! And to this I

Although I promised to keep the updates down for today, I just can't seem to help myself writing stuff for this blog. Therefore, I've got a couple of pictures to show of the game I mentioned between a gang of Scavengers against my Renegade Vaulties. Photo credit goes out to Henrik, and he did a smashing job! But see for yourself:Here we have my gang, made up of some Delaque gangers from Games

My initial idea for the "official" background story of Road Warriors is not entirely unlike that of Games Workshops old boardgame/minigame hybrid called 'Dark Future'. In it, the world hadn't totally gone down the drains (although, in Road Warriors, it must go down the drains) but instead was more set in a pre-apocalypse era.In it, roving gangs duelled out on the highways and interstates of a

Today, following our first game with the new Oh-Nine rules of Road Warriors, there were slight mumbles around the club. People were starting to talk about whether or not 'Road Warriors' was that much of a title - especially since I found out, and pointed out to the others, that 'Road Warriors' was a name already used by others.So now the talk is on; should it be renamed City Limits for the
