Mostly happy with the progress I have made this year.
A list of what has been done so far.

- Activation system complete with test cards
- Prototype Character cards. cheat sheets and stats done
- Combat system working and streamlined
- Started character illustrations
- Began compiling the rules into a rule-book. properly formatted for printing and pdf versions.
- Started work on other game scenarios and possible campaign system.
- Character builder planned out, for adding non official minis to the game.
What I will do in 2026
- Continues sculpting more models for the 3 factions not yet complete.
- Compile the rulebook and finish the diagrams and illustrations.
- Create a game board for test games and photography for rulebook.
- Publish battle reports and have weekly playtests.
- Get the rulebook and cards printed in a small test run.
- Redesign website.
Plus lots of tweaks and test prints for the models.
Trying to do some art for the rulebook
Needs inking but quite happy so far.Finished the test tile
Learnt a lot. Weathering too heavy on tiles makes them look like dungeon tiles not pavement. Terrain test (kept to a minimum in this project log)
The idea is create a ruined post apocalyptic look, I will add overgrown plants, vines and mushrooms to fit my theme.I had some wooden canvas panels they’re a bit small and odd dimensions. So I’ve ordered a load of 30mm x 30mm ones. They make ideal modular boards.
I started with some thin foam and torn up bits of sand paper pva glued to the base.
Drawing paving slabs and damage with a pencil. Tapping the rubber end of the pencil into the foam at random for some texture.
Added some textured paint to the edges of the sand paper and some small stones and sand to damaged areas.
Painted the whole thing dark grey with cheap art paint. I'll do a second coat then hit it with some vallejo primer through the air brush before weathering and flock.
