Cool news. I still have my SLA Industries RPG book somewhere. Never played it but it was a good read.
color me interested.
Those minis are amazing, wish I was there to get some 🙁
Nice idea merchandising to raise money
Ooooh! A SLA Industries skirmish game?! I’m ALL over that! The mini’s look good too!
SLA Industries huh? It’s a name I remember from my teenage years, but not one I ever investigated. The trusty BoW team will keep me up to date!
Very interesting.
Full options on sprue? That’s awesome!
WOW, cant wait… would love to wear my T-shirt with pride, great RPG, Love the Minis too!
Sounds like an interesting project.
do they have a web site or face book page? any links would be appreciated 8).
found there Face book page :https://www.facebook.com/daruma.productions
Don’t remember this but the sculpts look nice.
lovely art for the minis
Never heard of it, but those minis look nice
never played but do remember some of my friends playing this .the minis look good maybe something to keep an eye on for the future
OMFG!!!!!! i palyed this for years as a bounty hunter!!!!!!
we made dark boards with custom mini’s etc!!!!
i have to now change my underwear then uber research this game and buy buy buy!!!!
i even put a few recomendations into BoW to look into the rpg.
im so pumped this is coming out at last a game to get poor to :_
HYPE!!!!!!

Hi there, We’ve got Fan page with lots of info coming. The Creators pop in from time to time too. https://www.facebook.com/groups/937285693059011/945881068866140/?notif_t=like¬if_id=1460822518297500
ohh I loved SLA industries back in the day!
Cant wait to see more of the game 🙂
Tell me more!
S L A industries, very rich background, great place to go skirmish wargaming in ! Can’t wait !
Can’t wait for more info.
It all looks fantastic, I’ll have to keep my eye out for this 🙂
Played SLA off and on over the years, brilliant. It’s probably the most intense game we play right now. Currently attempting to recover some property of Mr Slayer and putting together a concurrent Dark Knight (not batman, much, much darker) campaign.
We’ve always said this would make a brilliant skirmish game, these figures look great and plenty of weapon options included.
You can get the whole lot in pdf for less than 30 quid, that’s 8 books and extras.
IHave a look here…

This game is really infectious, we’ve also found ourselves modding miniatures.

A SLA Skirmish game before the end of the year, takes the sting out of not being able to get to Salute this year, tremendous news:)
Cheers
Stu
Love the t-shirt.
Don’t think I spotted them on the floor. Will have to loop back.
Looks interesting but I think if anyone gets the T bar @switch1984 the poor fella may have a melt down (assuming your a fella). lol
Huh, seems cool. I’ll be waiting to see more.
I’ve never heard of the RPG but it can’t be all bad if it has cannibals.
The mini’s are great.
A really nice idea to raise money, good luck guys!
SLA is returning? You’ve just made my day! 😀
Never heard of them before but the minis look good
Don`t remember the game, but then i was into other gaming systems at the time.
Cool looking mini`s, but i do like the Carrien Guzzler. Will be keeping an eye on this……………
I’ll keep an eye on this. The first minis are looking promising.
Looks great, roll on the new physical books
Never heard of these guys before but the minis look excellent.
going to have to take a look at this – don’t remember the game but the minis look good
Holy Crap, S.L.A. industries coming back as a RPG and a skirmish game. Can’t wait to see that.
Okay these look really really cool! Like Shadowrun mixed with 2000 AD and a little bit of Necromunda! The Shivers are just my sort of thing, of course I got no shortage of minis already hahaha. 😛
I’ll be visiting Daruma’s website and keeping an eye out.
@slowloris – thanks for the links!
WOW a SLA tabletop figure game. That definitely sounds interesting.
Loved the original RPG looking forwards to a skirmish version, bring it on.
I am new to this whole miniatures thing but I am getting very interested in various games, seems like I now have 1 more great looking game to follow!
Huge fan of this game and the guys at Daruma are top blokes. Cant wait for more. There’s a CS1 fan page here if folks are interested https://www.facebook.com/groups/937285693059011/?fref=ts
Looking forward to SLA reborn, plus more of the minis! Already super tempted by Shivvers…
Man, SLA is a real blast from the past. I only recall playing a few sessions but it – just like Rift – had a much bigger following than I would have expected and it’s great to see the property is not only still alive but coming back as a miniatures game!
I loved the RPG and I am glad to see it is coming back.
Congrats on not going the Kickstarter route. That’s a great way to get my attention at least.
Looks interesting
Dont look half bad
Looks really interesting!
Have to keep an eye on this – some nice looking stuff for Sci-fi games
Somehow I missed this 🙁
Looks great.
I´ve seen that guy on the t-shirt before, but don´t recall playing the game…
awesome idea 🙂 can’t wait to see the game!
Missed this
Really cool RPG, excellent background for a skirmish game. Very interested in this.
That’s a really cool way to fund the line, best of luck with it guys!
A SLA Industries miniatures game? o.O
I’d play that! We used to play the RPG and it’s both ridiculously over the top and darkly humourous – the setting (and art style) would be perfect for miniatures. Bring on the Carrien!
It is very cool that SLA is coming back, prop-er (I’m hoping props will be a faction or at least mercs). This will be good.
Never played the RPG but the shirt and minis look fantastic!
Cool looking shirt!
Looks interesting, one to look out for
Wow…please get that here in the US,
Nice stuff
Awesome! I would love to add some of these to my miniature collection when they get release!
Looks nice and I like the useful looking body armour.
I really like the artwork style, looking forward to seeing the minis painted up
Blast from the past or what remember getting into this in a small way back when, nice to see it still going
Love the Downtown Shiver and the Scav Maurauder!
dam, I don’t remember seeing them there
I wouldn’t mind painting up one of these guys, it would be super fun.
Very nice
Somehow missed this yesterday so good to catch up today
Love the style of those mini’s
I love the RPG and a game based on the World of Progress oh I so into this.
Got to love gaming clothes!
It really looks like a nice idea and it is always good to see old worlds being brought back.
never heard of them cheers Stu, @slowloris !
vaguely recall this, be interesting to find out more. well done on the alternative funding method. nice to see.
Wow, SLA RPG came out 25 years ago? god, I’m old. But minis could be really cool!
Looks very interesting.
Rpg has great background, bring it on. Nice shirt.
Never heard of this before but the art and models look good so off to the internet.
From RPG to minis nice work!!
I like the idea of a reprint.
Nice guys would like to see more on the game in the coming year please.
Love the T-shirt
The minis kind of remind me of Borderlands. I’d love to try my hands at giving them a comic book style borderlands paint job.
cool
All looks great wish i was there
I know the roleplaying game is very well thought of.
Love SLA industries. I’m more about the RPG then the minis game this time though.
Interesting models – wonder how the game will play??
Love skirmish games and think this one has potential, Well found BoW team.
Great looking t-shirt. keep an eye out for the game later in the year.
I love the concept art, and the shirt is perfect.
My son’s not into RPG fan yet, but these miniatures look cool.
Spent plenty yesterday, but you can’t take it with you. 🙂

remember the image of Halloween jack and have been trying to find out what it was from for ages, so now I know and my interest is peaked. thanks
SLA industries is an amazing game, everybody I have ever ran it with has loved it! 🙂
Nice T-shirt always love the jester types. Don’t know anything about the game but hope it does well to go mainstream! Good luck guys
The Wallace brothers, like the chuckle brothers but more Scottish.
Good to see you lads doing so well….
Never heard of this game before, but the imagery and fluff on those cards is appealing.
Amazed how many great looking games are around and worried that I seem to have missed them. Although not into RPG really like the idea of it as a skirmish game.
Scav Mini looks amazing 🙂
Dammit, I missed these guys at Salute :/
iam so inlove with those minis need to get some
That’s some nice gear, interesting way of getting it all financed
Great T shirt
do you have XXL sizes
Most of the Tees, Hoodies, etc come in up to XXXXL sizes! Mail us if you want something specific.
very cool looking, cant wait to see more.
Checked out sla looking pretty good
Donot know that rpg but great to have merchandise to fund rise it, many Games later lack on it!
Hmm, never heard off. But back in the day there were plenty of small roleplaying games around that was just release in their respective country.
wow a jack t-shirt. well done wii definitely be looking up the merchandise
Interesting. The miniatures look nice, and I vaguely remember the game, though never played it. From what I remember it sounds like it should work as a skirmish game too.
minis look good, and assymetrical play always makes things interesting.
Yay, Daruma!
These minis look lovely!
Daruma stuff sounds fun!
looks cool
So cool!
Looks really nice ^^
Nice!
I missed the SLA guys this year, how did that happen ?!?
It looks excellent!
SLA and Daruma huh? Something to watch 🙂
Awesome Stuff!
I like the growth of skirmish games, and the ides of blending it in with a revived RPG is great. I haven’t heard of it before though.
Nice stuff, shirt looks cool.
I’m curious about Daruma!
Daruma is cool!
SLA Industries has a lot of potential!
This looks like an excellent game!
This totally rox!
Looks interesting.
This seems to be a nice game!
