We’ve been keeping things pretty close to the vest about our Post-Apocalyptic book in the works, but we are now able to reveal and proud to announce that last year we signed a contract with Osprey Publishing to produce Scrappers: Post-Apocalyptic Skirmish Wargames for their Osprey Wargames division!

Scrappers will be a hardbound book complete with core rules based on the Brink of Battle skirmish system and with complete rules for campaign games in the wastelands of the near future! As with Brink of Battle, each Crew will range between 3-15 models per side.

Players assemble Recovery Crews who explore the ruins of ancient Earth for lost artifacts and scraps of useful technology fighting off enemy Crews in the process. Scrapper Crews can belong to one of six Factions or be freelancers selling their scraps of tech to the highest bidder. Crew members can be one of three Lifeform types: True Human, Mutant, or Synthetic. Rugged human survivors, mutated humanoids & animals, and deadly robots fight for every last piece of tech they can find!

Scrappers: Post-Apocalyptic Skirmish Wargames is targeted for release in the spring of 2017.

Sounds interesting! I should find some information on the Brink of Battle system.

I definitly hope for some vehicles rules. That would make the game special. I believe the game needs something original in the wargames competition. Looting and fighting each other is kind of standard thing. I like the innovative ideas behind Frostgrave or the Walking Dead by Mantic for example. Dangerous environment and vehicles could be "the thing" for Scrappers.

Will there also be miniatures released for the game? (like Frostgrave or In her Majesties name)

Looks quite interesting.

Anyone tried it, yet?

Faust23 · « **Reply #11 on:** December 17, 2016, 10:01:02 PM »

It doesn't release until April 18th, 2017.

The rules engine is from " Brink of battle", seems to be mor roleplay than tabletop.

Faust23 · « **Reply #13 on:** December 18, 2016, 01:55:19 AM »

Thats incorrect. Its not roleplay at all.

NurgleHH · « **Reply #14 on:** December 18, 2016, 08:00:00 PM »

Ok, I saw RPG-things in it. At the end we try this ruleset several times and it was only boring for us. Found several better systems ...
