Look down at the world. The world of the mattblackgod. A world surrounded by mines and weapons platforms. A world that maimed itself and was nuked from orbit to stop its plagues from spreading off world. A world left to die. A world that didn't die completely. Life struggles on even in the harshest conditions.

Look down at the lights, at the Mega City of Utopia. A city that survived the wars and the nukes with laser weapons and force generators. Here is a shining gem of technology on the world. It is hoped that they can save there dying world.

Moving towards the sun rise away from Utopia we are crossing hundreds of miles of barren wastelands of Rosstralia. Not much survives here. Then we pass the occasional settlement or mutated critters. In some places wasteland warlords fight over resources. After thousands of miles we eventually reach some low hills. In those hills lies a fairly prosperous settlement called Greasy Poon.

Looking out to the sun rise lies swamp lands and jungles which are highly toxic. Those lands where at the bottom of the sea and are known as the blight. After thousands of miles of these diseased lands you will reach the Ash Wastes on the Tri Continent.

Lets return to the township of Greasy Poon. These lands are highly toxic and there are few in these parts who do not have some sort of mutation. Greasy Poon lies in what was some sort of amusement park and is set up in what was the park's food courts which is how it got it's name. The township is ruled over by Bangers and Smash. They work as a unit and are pretty mean.

Smash is the big guy and Bangers is a the brains of the operation. Bangers got his name from his love of shooting things. Smash likes to smash stuff. They make a pretty effective combat unit. Smash can throw rusting hulks of old cars like they are a bar stool.

Smash is a mutant from Thunderchild Miniatures and Bangers is a monkey from Ramshackle miniatures. This figure was a mis cast Curtis slipped in. All that was missing was the gun. A GW Space Marine Pistol was grafted on.

Posted Image
This guy was inspired by a certain pair in a certain Post Apoc movie, I am sure you will know.

I added a papoose from putty to hold Bangers. Some armour was added to stop the brains of the operation getting popped off.

A size comparison of Smash. This figure is about 60mm tall!

Now no Warlord stays top of the food chain without a couple of sidekicks to keep them informed. Bangers and Smash uses a couple of Bangers' brothers - Curry & Rice.
Posted Image
Curry & Rice hang around the township picking up information that they think their Brother will need to know. Of course if trouble arrives Curry & Rice have Bangers back.

Posted Image
These monkeys are from Ramshackle Games.

Greasy Poon lies along the edge of Rosstraila and the Blight lands. It isn't yet marked on the map.

Introducing Chips' Gang - Warriors of Greasy Poon.

Posted Image
Chips is a baddass in Greasy Poon and quickly sided with the Boss - Bangers & Smash. It wasn't long until others seeing the odds stacked against them joined. This offers the township a decent amount of security which in turn attracts those who have less combat ability and aggression.

Posted Image
Chips doesn't carry a ranged weapon as he prefers close combat. He wears home made armour and uses an reenforced old truck door as a shield.

Posted Image
Chips is a Stavley resin figure for the Nuclear Renaissance game by Ramshackle Games. The figure comes in three pieces. The body, axe hand and shield. There is also a sculpted integral resin base cast to the figure which saves basing.

Posted Image
I quite like this figure and I suspect I may order another in the future when I re-enforce King Artie's Scrap Knights. This mini would fit the look of that war band nicely.

Posted Image
Gravy and Egg like close combat. Gravy got his name from his habit of looting the graves. Egg earned his name from his battle chant "I am gonna split your head like a mute egg!"

Posted Image
Pie & Cheesy offer some ranged firepower with old assault rifles. Pie gained his name for food stuffs covered in pastry & baked (and some times deep fat fried after that). His love of pies is so deep he has been known to kill for a pie. Other denizens of Greasy Poon are amazed he isn't much larger. He puts it down to his mutie metabolism. Cheesy gained his name from his deep pungent cheese like aroma which keeps many locals upwind of him most of the time.

Posted Image
The last member of the gang is Sausage. He gained his name from his battle cry "How do like them Sausages!".

The members of the Chips gang are GW 40K Chaos cultists. They are nice looking figures and I enjoyed painting them. Whilst they are plastic multipart figures they are made in such a way that they can be assembled in one way. This seriously limits the scope that these figures could have. Nice one GW. Another shot in the foot.

The Chips gang are all named after fast food items that go with Chips (Note they are also known Fries in some parts of the Wastelands). I tried to get the gangers in colours that relate to their names. There will be future additions to this gang - all with names which relate to dishes & food served with chips. Sadly there will not be a Curry as he is one of Bangers' monkey brothers/henchmonkeys.

The lands around Greasy Poon are toxic and are the source of many mutants. Mutations occur in most life forms.

Posted Image

These bugs are a menace to the Mutants of Greasy Poon and to anyone crossing the wastes. There is a plus in that the bugs usually cook up okay. Apparently they (usually) taste like chicken.

Posted Image
The bugs are from Thunderchild Miniatures and painted up quickly.

Next up....more gangers of Greasy Poon. That's if I can stay away from the 15mm toys. :lol:

Introducing Meatpie Indephat.

Posted Image
Meatpie can be found in the township of Greasy Poon. He is a somewhat obnoxious and unpleasant character who's pungent aroma ensures that everybody stays up wind of him. Old hazmat suits are often donned by those who have to work with him. Snot and mucus drips from his nose and some times his mouth. Meatpie got his name from his love of the greasy meat pies that are served up in Greasy Poon's eateries. In addition to this Meatpie has an opinion on everything, usually opposing what everyone else is thinking. He takes great pleasure in voicing is opinion very loudly and starting arguments.

Posted Image
Meatpie will work and fight well enough when watched over however he tends to slope off for a Nuke Cola (or rad beer), Meat Pie and a handrolled cigarette.

Its not all bad. Meatpie can be helpful when the mood strikes him. He is good with electrics and old world devices. His skill in repairing these items stops Bangers and Smash from throwing him out into the Wastes.

Meatpie is a Nuclear Renaissance Filthy Bob figure by Ramshackle Games.
