Title: Evil Doers! You face the Tick
Post by: Freelancer on September 10, 2017, 12:05:42 PM
I've been writing some rules for Masked Vigilantes as a more tongue in cheek gang for Mana Press's upcoming gang war supplement for Tribal...Brutal. It gave me the impetus to work on a project I have wanted to do for years...The Tick

I like the Tick. Is he a goody?

He's the sweet gooey centre of Goodness in the never ending battle against the hard toffee centres of villainy and badness. He is also pretty quick and easy to paint......SPOON!

The Tick has been on the 'list of miniatures I want to make' for almost as long as I've been into miniatures.

SPOON! Indeed.

I see there is a new live action show premiering on Amazon.  I'm still a huge fan of the cartoon series from the 90's.

Yeah, I loved the Cartoon series (very true to the comic) and the Patrick Warburton live action series. The pilot for the new series left me a little underwhelmed. I hope they fixed it before going ahead with the new series.
Now I just need to figure out how to make Arthur.... any 28mm chubby guys in a jumpsuit minis people can recommend?

So when is Brutal being released? Is it still covering regular gangs?
Title: Re: Evil Doers! You face the Tick
Post by: Freelancer on September 12, 2017, 09:20:51 AM
Coming out later this year. Yep still focuses on regular gangs, from Roman and Victorian Street gangs to more modern stuff, plus rules for guns n stuff.

Oh yes, forgot to add that Lon has come up with a good set of rules for Solo play. So you can your lone Hero against the supervillain's goons and run them as NPCs.

Ooo - missed this. I'm putting together some Circus of Crime guys, and Eureka's coppers willl act as good "goons" to fight against.

Amazon released 6 episodes of the new The Tick back in August with more (6?) coming next month (Feb. 23rd).

At least they did so here in the States.

Now that Brutal is in print I thought I'd show the blog link of the TMNT game used in the playtest concept games.
