My older setting was set 40 to 50 years after the nukes rained down on MBW. As I have added a 2000AD style High Tech Mega City (Utopia City) I have wound on the world to +100 PA. Lets see how it has changed..... First up - Utopia City Magistrates. The Magistrates or Mags as they are known are the feared elite of the cities Law enforcement. They wear improved body armour and carry better weapons to the Enforcers. With 15 years of training the Mags are authorised to carry out on the spot justice . They are judge, jury and executioner. They will often arrive at riots and block wars and wade in. The Mags act as the cities primary defence force and provide defence from Wasteland gangs and some upitty newly formed wasteland states. Occasionally the Mags will go out into the Wastelands to deal with raiders or criminals. Becoming a Mag is a massive responsibility. Once a Mag always a Mag. If they survive they can rise up the ranks and end up a judge or counsellor. However all Mags face retirement one day – those that do have to wander into the wastelands or undercity to bring the law to the lawless. They never return. Mags are drawn from the cities Orphan population and trained from a early age. It takes 15 Years to train a Meg. Very rarely an exceptional Enforcer will be asked to join the Mags, assuming he or she can pass the training.  Mags have high tech pistols that provide a variety of fire modes and ammunition. They are also coded to the users DNA so they cannot be used by unauthorised persons. This gives the Mags a fearsome amount of firepower. Mags are also equipped with Day Sticks, Stun & Gas Grenades and a Respirator mask. There are also specialist Mags to deal with Riots which are a regular occurrence in the city.  The Mag on the left is equipped with Riot Foam. The Riot Foam sprayer coats rioters in a foam which sets solid until they can be removed, arrested and Judged. It is a quick way to get control of dangerous situation. The Justice Dept has other specialist Mags too.  Left to Right - PSI, Tech and Med PSI Mags provide much needed PSI support and have saved many Mags lives. The mutation is not clearly understood. Each PSI Mag has their own special gifts. Tech Mags deal with the robots and computers and Med Mags rush about trying to keep folks alive (at least long enough for sentence to be passed). Minis are from Mongoose Minis. As rioting can get bad the Mags have adapted an old Warbot for Riot Policing. Meet the Riotbot.  The Riot Bot is equipped with a shield, Day stick and heavy Riot Foam sprayer. The mere presence of this machine usually calms a situation.   This was a old Androids toy - repainted. I am thinking it will need a base on it.  Edited by mattblackgod, Nov 13 2017, 10:12 PM.

The main body of low end Law Enforcement in the City is provided by the Enforcers (known as Grunts by the Mags). Every Enforcer House has that one Enforcer who can give a Mag a run for his money.  Figure by EM4. This Mag Hero is toting a LMG which is often handy for suppressing the gangs when Block Wars occur. Some times life in Utopia City is too much and people just snap. They get what is known as Utopia Shock Syndrome (USS) and are known as Crazies. Crazies are demented and go on homicidal killing sprees imagining all manner of deluded fantasies. This poor lady snapped doing the house work one day....   Figure is a Mongoose Judge Dredd Futsie. I like this mini - she has lots of character. Measuring spoons, toilet brush and a feather duster. Good fun to paint. This is my first attempt at using florescent paints on a miniature. Edited by mattblackgod, Nov 13 2017, 10:13 PM.

Bio Booster Armor Mk1 While experimenting on various forms of Power Armor, the Hypero Corporation developed a form of organic armor they dubbed Bio Booster Armor. Unlike regular Power Armor the Booster links directly with its pilot, or host, bonding with him or her. During field tests it was found that after a matter of weeks the pilot was absorbed by the suit. Hypero undetered, went forward and continued trials ultimately killing 25 pilots. Before pilot 26 could be installed, the suit some how escaped (or was stolen) into the undercity levels of Utopia City. All attempts to capture the suit have failed. Some speculate that the suit has fled into the wastelands.   Minis is a repainted EM4 Alien. I feel a mention of The Mighty Flip is worthy here, as I have nicked his idea and background fluff for the Bio Booster suit ...Thanks Man.  Rad Beers are on me!  In Utopia City most of the menial work is done by robots. In many blocks old droids such as this one can be found carrying out repairs and cleaning.   The mini is by Heresy Miniatures.

A typical street ganger of Utopia City ...very possibly of the Golden Petals gang from Tomoe Gozen Block.  The mini is a Japanese female Samurai from EM4 miniatures. Edited by mattblackgod, Nov 13 2017, 10:15 PM.

When you have a mega city....what do you need? Non Combatants! Those ordinary folks who get in the way.  The mini on the left is a converted EM4 Samurai Lady miniature (Not too happy with the hand bag) and the one on the Right came from Heresy Miniatures. May be Mrs Natagi is on her way home from the office (the 10 hour working week is a bind in Utopia City) or perhaps she has dinner? The other lady could be out for a night out, a street punk...or a street worker (that is one job Robots haven't managed to fully take over!). There will be more non comms following.

Sculpt up a Cat and replace the bag with a pet carrier! Okay very hard to do... I like the inclusion of civilians into a project, if'n only to create LOS problems or like and Old Ross AAR subjects for an abduction scenario. There are other uses too... ! Your Street Worker miniature has potential to be painted up multiple ways and fill a variety of roles in Utopia City. Ya just might want to snag more of those castings! |

Enforcers The Enforcers are the police of Utopia city. Unlike the Mags the Enforcers are drawn from the ranks of the city and is one of the few paying jobs available in the city. They get two years training and then go out on the street with a years probation as a Rookie. Enforcers are well armed and trained, they try to keep order. When arrests are made they are shipped to the halls of justice and sentence is passed by a Magistrate (usually an older or injured Mag unable to take to the streets). Often the Enforcers deal with the mundane policing duties such as traffic, parking, routine patrols, clean ups or security. Enforcers will often support any Mags in the area. Sometimes a Mag will lead a group of Enforcers. The city is a dangerous place and they go heavily armed. Enforcers are not made of the stuff that the Mag's are made from. Many are weak and a few corrupt.   The figures are a mixture of EM4 & Copplestone cops. Edited by mattblackgod, Nov 13 2017, 10:16 PM.

Out in the City are many Orgs....Organised Crime. They vary in style and form as any upon 21st Century Earth. Here we see Big Tony of the Rustini Crime Family carrying out a hit....  The Rustini's are identified by their Italian influence and cheap suits. The figure is a Mongoose 2000AD/Judge Dredd Mobster. Edited by mattblackgod, Nov 13 2017, 10:16 PM.
