The Weekly LIVE 202 – Cyberpunk Red: Combat Zone, Windheim & Horn of the Dawn, Garbage and Glor and Mantic’s Epic Warpath

Posted on by upturnedtable_sx8obi

Cyberpunk Red: Combat Zone is a miniatures skirmish game based on the Cyberpunk tabletop role-playing universe. It offers a meaty experience with easy-to-read cards and tokens, inspired by turn-based tactical games like XCOM. The game is affordable and shipping to crowdfunding backers, with pre-orders open for retail release. Combat Zone is based on the same source material as CD Projekt Red’s own blockbuster multiplatform hit, R. Talsorian Games’ Cyberpunk tabletop role-playing universe. First published in the 1980s, Cyberpunk 2020 was later rebooted with Cyberpunk Red, the analog prequel to Cyberpunk 2077. So while the action technically takes place about 30 years before the events of the video game, many of the factions, weapons, and tropes will immediately be familiar to fans of V and Johnny Silverhand.

The Windheim Companion and The Horn of the Dawn are two books by Nordic Skalds. Windheim is a fantasy world setting for Dragonbane/Drakar och Demoner, set on an island with various factions in conflict. The Horn of the Dawn is a campaign trilogy set in Windheim, offering epic battles, political intrigue, and more.

Garbage & Glory is a tabletop RPG where players control raccoon adventurers diving into the human world to find valuable trash. The game features playable classes, a +One System gameplay mechanic, and garbage and glory cards for rewards.

Warpath, a mass-battle game in the Warpath Universe, is being reconsidered by Mantic Games. The studio has been working on refining the rules for an epic-scale version but faces competition from another company. They seek input from the community to decide the game’s direction, including possible retail launch, plastic models, and distribution channels.

The Weekly LIVE 181 – Fallout 3D Skirmish Bundle, Recycling Warhammer, Corvus Belli Using New Plastic Resin, One Ring Expansion and GMs Day Sale Extended

Posted on by upturnedtable_sx8obi

A bundle of books and 3D printing files for Fallout: Wasteland Warfare will let you get started with the tabletop miniatures game and its RPG spin-off for under $18. Wasteland Warfare is a skirmish game based on the Fallout video game series, pitting players against each other – or AI enemies in its solo and co-op modes – in the post-apocalyptic universe using small handfuls of models.

Games Workshop Starts Trial to Recycle Old Warhammer Models and More Starting with a limited trial of 28 UK stores, the initiative for hobbyists to safely scrap Warhammer sprues, models, and paint pots could roll out worldwide.

Corvus Belli, the renowned manufacturer of miniatures, has recently announced the addition of a new material to their range of miniature production. The company has been experimenting with plastic resin, a mixture of resin and PVC, and has decided to partner with external supplier Unicool to bring this material to the market. The company has been testing this new material for several months and is excited to introduce it to its customers.

Free League Publishing revealed the latest expansion coming to their Lord Of The Rings TTRPG, The One Ring Roleplaying Game, coming out later this year. The expansion is called Tales From The Lone-Lands, and has been beautifully illustrated into a hardback compendium, which will contain six brand-new adventures for you to play as lone adventures, string together, or placed within your own campaign. All are set in the lone-lands of north-western Middle-earth, with players encouraged to assume that the time frame still fits around the main campaign in the years around 2965.

The GM’s Day sale is going on now at DriveThruRPG. It is their largest sale of the year, hundreds of publishers, thousands of downloadable titles, up to 30% off. March Forth and grab some deals. The sale ends soon!

The Weekly LIVE 165 – Star Wars: Shatterpoint Skirmish Game, Regency Cthulhu Expansion by Chaosium, Heroscape Return in Doubt and Edgerunners in Cyberpunk RED

Posted on by upturnedtable_sx8obi

Star Wars Skirmish is a new Star Wars miniatures skirmish game coming next year. Atomic Mass Games, the Asmodee Studio that currently produces the Star Wars: Legion and Star Wars: X-Wing Miniatures tabletop games, have announced this new skirmish game featuring iconic characters from the Star Wars universe. The game will be released in June 2023 and will be released alongside existing Star Wars products. Players will build a strike team of characters, such as Ahsoka Tano and Bo-Katan Kryze or Lord Maul, and have them compete in battles with evolving mission objectives.

Regency Cthulhu by Chaosium is a new sourcebook for the popular Call of Cthulhu RPG. And it does exactly what it says on the tin. The world of Regency England—and specifically here, Jane Austen’s England, which was society through a bitingly satirical lens—is about to be full of monsters from the mythos.Call it Shoggoths and Sensibility. Or Persuasion (by elder powers to hasten the destruction of all you know and hold dear). But maybe buckle a brace of pistols over your waistcoat, because Regency England is beset by horrors.

Heroscape’s return is in doubt. Its Hasbro Pulse campaign captured a burst of backers thanks to the dedicated community that has sustained itself over Heroscape’s nearly twelve-year hiatus, but the momentum died almost immediately. Only 3,400 backers have pledged Age of Annihilation’s $250 box.The project needs to surpass 8,000 purchases, or $2 million in promised funding, by November 15th to convince Hasbro it deserves to exist. Their current focus on their big cash cows of Magic: the Gathering and Dungeons and Dragons means Heroscape will not be coming back any time soon. 

A new starter set allows you to play Edgerunners from the popular Netflix series in Cyberpunk RED. The Cyberpunk Edgerunners Mission Kit runs on the Cyberpunk RED rpg ruleset. Cyberpunk RED is the latest iteration of the original Cyberpunk RPG, going all the way back to the days of 1988. Now, the new starter box has an updated look for even the days of the RED. This feels like the “bridge” between the Night City of 2045 (the time of the Red) and the “now” of Night City in 2077. The set will include lore and rules to bring the setting and game up to the timeline from the anime by Trigger Studios and the console/PC game by CD Project Red.

Idle Red Hands Weekly 040 – Dune 2d20 RPG, Conan Conversion, The Witcher TV Series. Lost in Space and Sisters of Battle

Posted on by upturnedtable_sx8obi

Frank Herberts’s Dune in 2020. Galeforce9 holds the right and released an update of the classic boardgame. Modiphius will release a 2d20 variant of a Dune RPG. Denis Villeneuve is directing a remake of the film with Timothée Chalamet in the role of Paul Atreides. Modiphius has released a conversion kit for their 2d20 Conan and John Carter of Mars, if you want more pulp mechanics in your Adventures in an Age Undreamed Of. The Netflix Witcher series is creating a renewed popularity in the CDPR Witcher 3 video game and the physical copies of The Witcher TTRPG by R. Talsorian Games are now sold out. Plenty of coin for your Witcher. The Sisters of Battle Army box can still be found at retail in Japan. Chris will be working on a TTRPG one-shot similar to the Deathwatch adventure we played featuring the Adeptus Sororitas. Lost in Space releases season two on Netflix. The Doctor Smith character is a great way to play a villain in a secret agenda-based TTRPG.
