One of my impulse purchases at Adepticon this year was Wreck Age’s new Seed Bank two-player starter. $60 buys you two five-model crews, a mini rulebook, and a bit of terrain. A pretty good value all around.
It took some time, but I finally got around to painting it up, starting with the Stakers.
The Stakers are the homesteaders in the dystopian future of Wreck Age. They’re just trying to settle down and build a community.
The package is a great value, although some of the detail is a bit muddy.
The Wreck Age game itself seems to be a hybrid between a RPG and a wargame. The rulebook even suggests having a narrator / GM. That makes it a bit hard to fit into my game schedule.
I received this promo model for participating in the Broken Contract event at Adepticon this year. Wreck Age is one of many post-apoc/distopian games that have been on my radar for a while but hasn’t quite managed to break through to a significant buy in.
But I’m not one to let the lack of game prospects keep me from painting a cool model.
Now in its thirdyear, let’s take a look at my hobby work over the past year.
Overview
I started the hobby year working through the Malifaux Black Friday order and getting a few things ready for Adepticon. Then the queue got real. In 2015 I felt I had been a little too stingy at Adepticon. Let’s just say I didn’t have that problem this year.
