Check out the Zombie town terrian and the Wasteland webcomic too. Skank Game This site is by a freind of the guy who does the Skankgame site - and uses the same terrain. Lots of great batreps and ideas in here too. Recon In Force - Wastelands and Trailer Parks Enjoy!

But I will be on the lookout for some, I did/do have plans for my own, just a quick and fairly dirty set to get me through...

I am pretty certain that Xander and I have homebrew rules that will cover anything you can dream of. However the paperless system and the simultanious move and action sequence is not to every ones tastes. Oh and armour is missed off. But it can be simulated by increasing character damage levels so that only rifles or in the case of powered armour .50cals can do any damage. Try it - they are free.

At one time I was converting loads of 40k stuff across to the system and so I've got rules for pretty much everything (not all typed mind. If you've specific request though I'd type it up especially)

The rules are basic at the minute but workable and I am still working on the skills. I will email them to you. If you like campagin games give Nuclear Renaissance by Ramshackle a shot. They are free too. The close combat takes a bit of getting used too but once you have grasped the rules great fun. So many skills and there is character flaws too. The downside is that you WILL end up building tons of rigs and vehicles for your gangs! Nuke Ren rules

Tsk Tis too small precious!" and looking all hauty when you buy the cheapo toys for massacre (I am lucky that I am at that age where store clerks think I am buying for my kids ). Then you run home....and think about mugging a kid cos his toy is just right and slightly battered......then its a night of lurking at the bits box at the end of the world muttering and cackling insanely as you assemble yet another Post Apoc death rod! Its a slippery slope kids!

You might pick up a tip or two. Plus you get to see some of Hasslefree's naked ladies get painted. Skankgame articles.
