Pretty cool fluff... Looks like Wolfden is a deadly hellhole providing tons of atmosphere for fierce battles.

The Badland's is a semi arid region of Planet Wolfden over run with villains and bandits. The region is a nogo for the planet's Authorities. Like the Outback it is littered with wrecks of Pirate & Freelancer vessels that where involved in the battle to free Wolfden from the Pirates over 100 years ago. Many of these wrecks are home to all manner of scum who often use the ship's surviving (and ageing) arsenals to keep the the Authorities at bay.

Wolfden has many legends of lost pirate and freelancer loot laying in various (allegedly) undiscovered wrecks across the world. Another legend is that the allegedly "merchant" McNulty who founded/freed the world was a ex pirate and he had hidden a secret stash of loot. This attracts adventurers to Wolfden who seek quick riches.

Deep in the Badlands lays the wreck of the Rogue, an old pirate Corvette. This is used as a base for a bandit gang called "the Rogues". The Rogues pull raids into Wolfden City and the Space Port.

The Rogues - 15mm.co.uk Raiders. I cant find this lot on the site so I am not sure if they are OOP.

Posted Image
Some Rogues are making off with some loot. This duo is one of the reasons I like this set. The guy on the Right wears the Rogues icon of the Red Skull.

Posted Image
The Rogues prefer fast strike vehicles to make their raids.This example is unarmed so the can enter Wolfden City or Space Port. Armed vehicles are not allowed into the city or space port.

The car is a toy from a Kinder Egg. I added new rear wheels from another toy.

There has been quite a bit of 15mm work going on here this week. I only managed to get the Rogues gang finished but there has been some vehicles and terrain completed.

Posted Image
A Barricade. Another bitza from left over bits from my 28mm Hexagon Platformer sets.

Citizens of many frontier world's make use of small all terrain vehicles for getting about. Definitive Colony Systems (DCS) build the Mule which has proved popular with the colonists.

The Mule is a toy from a Kinder Egg repainted.

The colonies and frontier worlds have many old vehicles laying around. Many are on their last legs. A few are rusting heaps of junk abandoned and forgotten.

Posted Image
This truck is a cheap toy from a mining toy set. A quick repaint and it's ready for the tabletop. This is to be used either as a vehicle or a terrain.

Are you located in a Remote Station? Need a rugged transporter to haul supplies? Then Definitive Colony Systems (DCS) has the answer for you. You need the DCS Rover. Rugged all wheel drive, traction control, powerful hydro-electro motors, bouncy suspension, fancy braking systems, lots of transport space, optional fluffy dice...Yes the DCS Rover is the Vehicle for you!!!

Posted Image
The DCS Rover....

Posted Image
The Rover is a Matchbox Vaniom toy. I glued the wheels up and gave it a repaint.

For £1.50 I cant complain. Shame the supermarket had sold out of these when I went back.

I like the first and second seasons best! Weird, but I like older stuff more so than new stuff. IMO, the older less in your face and overly digital enhancement stuff is best. This is a double bonus cause it was like new to me not a rerun! Can you believe I watch Peter Gunn series still! One of my favorite detectives... Question: you ever meet Lister, the actor?

During the many wars & invasions that has happened across the colonies and independent edge worlds the Confederacy of Independent worlds raised many reg tag looking regiments to fight off various invaders be they pirates, Solar Nations, Corporations or the Galactic Blok nations. Many of these regiments where nicked named "Browncoats" because of the distinctive Brown Coats worn by these freedom fighters.

While Wolfden is not a member of the Confederacy it is a important trade hub for many of the Confederate worlds. To protect Wolfden the 24th "Browncoats" where posted to the world. After a few years the figment disbanded and quite a few fighters stayed on Wolfden forming a Mercenary company in the pay of the World's leader:- Lady Valium. They see various deployments against the Outback and Badlands gangs or as extra muscle for the Wolfden Security Forces.

The figures are 15mm.co.uk Rim Mercenaries.

I see this force as begin quite rag tag mixing equipment and uniform colours. The only thing tying them together is the Browncoat they wear. In the to paint pile is a converted Matchbox vehicle which will serve as a patrol vehicle.

This force will grow as there are more Rim Mercenary packs available from 15mm.co.uk. I am also tempted to mix in some WW2 US GIs and USA Vietnam figures too. In the end I would like this force to be at least Platoon strength as I plan some games of Stargrunt.
