Luigi, I am pretty sure it is by Ironclad Miniatures.

Lots of other designs available, too.

YES!
Thank you PattusMagnus. I knew I had seen them before.
Now I just need to swallow once more my resolution of painting more dwarfs before adding to the pile.

I can confirm the VSF armoured car is from Ironclad miniatures.
It actually belonged to one of our mates (John Cunningham) who sadly passed away recently.
He had half painted it, but I remembered speaking to him about it, and he always said he wanted to finish the vehicle in a black colour.
So hopefully I’ve completed it in the way he wanted, and we successfully got it to the table this weekend for the first time.

Cool buildings, I like the awnings! Very desert planet style.

Thanks. They're from the now defunct Plast Craft Games.

Very pretty, but very fragile.

Some pictures from my two runnings of "Scavenging in the Trailer Park" using Zombie RV rules the previous weekend. I had four players on Friday night and five on Saturday morning. Everyone had fun and enjoyed themselves -- which is indeed the number one goal when running games at a convention.



The gray discs at the bottom of the above picture are my noise markers I made. The number of stones on each disc is the amount of noise the character made (which attracts zombies, of course). When I play a game that requires markers, I always try to make them scenic ones that don't detract from the look of the game.

Last day for the generic fantasy Wildspire Miniatures Gamefound Relic miniatures campaign, although you can make a late pledge at the same price.
https://gamefound.com/en/projects/wildspire-miniatures/realm-reforged

Anyway, it's the solo Lasting Tales Ambush Scenario! It's actually wilderness, but I didn't think of taking pics until after setting up the board for a settlement adventure.

I'm "cheating" by picking weaker elite units, in this case a Bandit Captain and Assassin. Not only do Elite units have the Loot trait, but the Bandit Captain sprinkles treasure around the board once you reach so-many casualties. And you win the scenario with a number of casualties, so weak minions are fine, too. Besides, its an ambush, so bandits are thematic, right??

Of course, it's not all a cakewalk when the enemy starts with five Bandit Targeteers on high ground and rock cover, and shoots four crossbow bolts at your only armored guy, who can't even reach them. Thankfully, abusing the rules resulted in them abandoning cover for better range, resulting in the Ranger picking them off (not fast enough) from the forest, where, because he's a Ranger, they can't see him. Wizard, meanwhile, uses the OP "Fleet of Foot" spell to run around the map picking up treasure.

The thief, meanwhile, has the OP Backstab ability. Spend your action on one turn for a Hide, let everyone attack the dwarf, then, next turn, pop out of the bushes and add +1d6 to the attack. Since he's at 3rd level, he can then make a second strike. With that second strike at 3rd level, melee units become *very* useful. Takes down a Bandit Captain and a Rogue Wizard that way. Gains a vial of poison from one, and strange Arabian lamp from the other!

I love that this game evokes the old Wake Island game that featured in Wargames Illustrated(?) many moons ago.

I was thinking that: I'd get distracted by the beautiful models and lose the game.

We played another game of Star Wars themed Space Weirdos last night. It wasn't part of our campaign, but its script was stolen straight from the first movie! Stormtroopers are doing a boarding action on a smaller rebel ship, looking for a high value target (Princess?).



We continue to have fun with the rules, so hopefully will keep interest up to play them fairly often.
