New Ute

 Having finally secured some vehicles of a scale and price I could live with I thought I would take a bash a sectoring one up…




Really happy with the scale and the price was even better at £7.99 for six cars

New beasties....squids





 Greetings 

Three new beasties sky sailing super squids 

Turned out pretty well after lot of head scratching and painting rethinks 😬

May stay them as super predators for now

Given me a taste for aerial cephalopods....might turn into a separate sculpting project once the final editing is done

Cheers all

SECTOR12 INTRO....



INTRODUCTION 

   'So you can fight. That much is obvious...but can you think too? At least you know when to shut up...well we got no need for fighters taking their troubles out on law abiders, we like the law here, law's for everyone, keeps us safe, safe from what's out there.' 

   'You got a different way of thinking right? Might be useful..but you been running with a wrong crowd, not good, you is young though, maybe get you turned round, maybe. Too late for your mates though, too old to retrain, one went down the tunnels other two straight to recycling, best thing for 'em if you ask me.' 

   'Don't look like that, you know what the world is we are dealing with, no room for dead weights...everyone works everyone eats...but I got a job come across my desk this morning might suit your type. Very dangerous, probably kill you, but you'll be free of this place and them bracelets...just the rules your Pathfinder gives you.'

   'You heard about SECTOR 12? News travels eh? Its real alright...opened up two days back...convenient for you or this conversation wouldn't be happening. Just like that? Sure...frontier starts to flickering then POW! Gonna take longer this time, massive area but the doors are tiny...nothing big is getting through, small teams only, hard, self sufficient, long range.' 

   'You'll be the first boots down, long recon...looking for anything we need...Supply dumps, water sources, intelligence maps, local populations, flora, fauna, viro conditions...We need to know what's in there, what might get out...I'll kit you out, put you with an experienced team too, always looking for new hands, keep you alive, maybe. Strictly a onetime offer though kid and I've got other places to be. You decide now and you'll be on your way outta here. Look at it this way it can't be any worse than the tunnels, right?'

The Playtesting Crew...

 Anyone familiar with my posts on the lead adventure forum will be aware that the current playtesting team have suffered something of a set back.

During their last mission they lost their beloved leader to a dinosaur attack, this created a power vacuum into which stepped the new boy, Clyde the amiable super ape.

After a quick discussion where it was suggested that Clyde’s spoken language was not really up to the job it turned out that all he really wanted was a bad ass hat, a nice big hand gun and a belt pouch full of Oreo cookies...any excuse to cut some minis up🙄

The leadership role was then taken over by Harris.

Having only three members in the team will cause them headaches initiative wise but it will allow me to test the new ‘short handed’ rules.

Perhaps something indoors might help?

Returning to the tents after the night attack the team find what may be the cause of the campsite’s desertion.

Inside one of the largest tents they find what appears to be a cave in, bore hole or perhaps a burrow?

Oddly after the first few metres they realise that cave floor is paved with work stone...

Dungeon crawl anyone?

Terrain and the Environment





 Due to the nature of ‘The End’ and the world that it left behind many different environments have become evident from initial expeditions. 
  This means that gaming in SECTOR 12 gives us the opportunity to use just about any terrain that is available. 
 These environments, more often than not, coexist in odd juxtapositions separated by shimmering borders of reality and a single step for the Pathfinder teams. 
 Bubbles of freezing wilderness, pockets of terrain warping storms, sudden vacuums of deep space in fact the entire playing surface usually 3x3) may be divided equally between two different states of being. Similarly the nature of the terrain may be show stark contrasts...ancient ruins and virgin forests, swamps in cities of the future or starship corridors running through mountain ranges. 
 How these differences are decided can be left to the player and the terrain available but if a large selection of terrain is available the player can use the random terrain chart and leave the decsion to fate...

The only limit is your own imagination (and the contents of your terrain box!)

From small beginnings...


 Greetings all 

New blog first post..

SECTOR12 - Adventures in a Post Apocalyptic Reality is a set of solo skirmish rules designed by myself Martin Green, currently in the final stages of playtesting. 

Some of you may already be familiar with the rules journey from postings on the lead adventure forum under the user name Chimpfoot...

Starting today here is where you’ll also be able to find rules, playtesting, battle reports, painting, miniatures and terrain projects related to these rules and more (all the good stuff that keeps us tinkering away at this great hobby).

Due to the nature of SECTOR12 the content here will have a deliberately eclectic feel....SECTOR12 is a weird and wonderful place created from a reality bending apocalypse the nature of which is yet to become clear to those ‘fortunate’ enough to have survived it...

Welcome and beware...

Ogre Warband Part 7 : Light infantry

 Light infantry? Not round here I’m afraid, not with these salad dodging maniacs. Maybe ‘slightly lighter’ infantry is more accurate for wha...
