Sludge (10)

 

One of the initial factions for the game

is to play a cult--

apparently in the Sludge world they gather to

the service of resurrected saints.

Monsters, maybe.

The rules have been published in two parts

so far

in a magazine put out by several independent game designers.

The magazine is called Blaster, it's available online.

Volume 3 has the rules and Volume 4 has rules for several factions

to differentiate play styles and special rules.

I'm making a sort of pulpy cult army

for the game.

What you have been seeing in these photos is some 

work-in-progress

figures.

A trial, like.

Sludge (6)

 

Figures are based singly for skirmishers, characters,

elite units.

Line units are more like three figures to a larger base, plus

there's cavalry and knights in armor.

Honestly, what's not to love?

Sludge (4)

To date the rules have been published only as a couple of magazine articles, and I think that many of us who are watching the game develop are looking forward to the day when an actual rulebook makes an appearance

and is more widely available.

The game asks players to come up with their own models,

from whatever manufacture they choose

encouraging kit-bashing.

The formations in the game follow the traditions of 

other wargames depicting the period.

 

Sludge (2)

The game is authored by Sean Sutter, and

imagines a world where the era 

of black powder spins out of control.

A sort of Napoleonic armageddon.

 

Different Worlds (Sludge)

 

It's a mytho-historical setting, imagine

as a post-apocalyptic, pre-industrial world.

Stuck in time.

Different Worlds

 

Let us look together

at some other figures.

Different worlds.

The ominous models that we've seen in the last several posts

are part of an army I've been working on

for a game

called Sludge, which

I like thinking about.

Welcome Back (final)

 

Welcome, Back (5)

 

Always true.

Now on

to some new business.

Welcome, Back (4)

 

So thank you for your forbearance.

It's good to see you again, dear reader.

I love you. It's

true.

Welcome, Back (3)

 

One piece, 1246 episodes.

The world turned a little

upside-down.

Welcome, Back (2)

 

We're back.

In more or

less

one piece.

Welcome, Back

 

Well, here we are

again.

The Interregnum (final)

 

We were

the enemy.

The Interregnum (28)

 

Not for long.
