Title: Just a few pictures from our recent S.T.A.L.K.E.R game.
Post by: Nimrod on March 04, 2019, 06:46:01 AM
Playing new Metro Exodus game rekindled my interest in all things postapoc and so we managed to have a game of stalker at our club this weekend.
Rules worked out quite nicely and we had a lot of fun playing the game.
Hopу that in a few weeks we can have another game this time with more players and a bigger game table.

Some great looking buildings you have there.
Well done.

Thank you gentlemen! :)
If everything goes well then in a few weeks I could show  more pictures from our planned big four players game.

That so reminds me of the Yanov map in STALKER Call of Pripyat (which is probably the point ;) ).

Very nice setup! 8)

Looks like a great game.  The table looks terrific.

Meant to ask before, STALKER rules?

Thank you all for your kind comments! :)

I have a couple of very familiar, for any stalker player at least, buildings in the works right now and hope that in a few weeks I will show bigger and better detailed table for our planned four players game. :)

We use a set of home brewed rules as it turned out that we were not able to find any good stalker themed rules on market,  still I hope that this is going to change when Dentatus finally releases his "Zona Alfa"  ruleset.   :)

Gosh, I hope so too.

Release date is out of my hands though.

Some more pictures from our recent four players game of stalker
Game was a blast and we had a lot of fun playing it.
Lots of typical stalker situations and a big showdown in the end turned to farce rather quickly I must add. :)
As usual there is some more pictures from the game in my blog: https://abdulgoldberg.blogspot.com/2019/05/zz-top-stalker-party.html

Thank you!  Now when we have an adequate amount of basic terrain for postapoc gaming I think that I need to build some underground terrain next.

Absolutely brilliant! So many typical Stalker elements (the anomalies, the tower, etc.)  :-*

Have you tried playing the new "Anomaly" Mod?

Among other things which usually dwell in dark and  seemingly abandoned labs :)
Hope that I can finish a first couple of corridor sections in a week or so.

I've just spent some time playing "Anomaly" and must say that I rather liked it. IMO It has a good potential to became on of the best stalker mods over time given enough polish.

We don't talk about those Stalker mods. My own Stalker thread was called "Lost to the Zone" for how many times I died playing Misery for research. :D

Have you considered making some artefacts for objective markers? Mine were just slapped together out of a bit of greenstuff and painted up in weird colours. Though I guess regular stacks of grates and guns work for objectives too to be fair. :)

Very clever idea with these artefacts! They look highly recognizable for anyone who played stalker before!
I made some generic markers from various bits and pieces but not considered idea of making artefacts before this moment. Now I think that things are going to change in this regard. :)

I really like those artifacts.

Currently playing my way through a CoP game at the moment, so those artifacts are definitely familiar.  In 25mm plus (or, maybe, even 20mm) or larger, the artifact models make sense.  My chosen scale is 15mm so, while I'd like to make up some similar models, I'm thinking the effort wouldn't be worth the appearance of the final item... :/
