Doom Squad solo or co-op rules for 300 years of special forces warfare by Steve Danes released!

From the dude who brought you Furioso and its Italian Wars expansion, who brought you Sengoku Monster Hunter and who was in on Sulphur too we are delighted to present Doom Squad!  The latest wargame title published by Alternative Armies from the author Steve Danes.  

You take the role of a small team of special forces soldiers in one of four different historical or present time periods then go up against the game engine in a mission which changes every time.  Use any miniatures and play a game in twenty minutes.  It is great fun!

If you play in the era of Horse and Musket, of Napoleon, the colonial wars of the 19th century, the first world war, the second world war or the cold war and ultra modern then Doom Squad will slot right in with your figure and rules collection.

SDB01 Doom Squad – Go HERE.  A4 Printed Book

Written by Steve Danes a new nerve-shredding game of special forces action that ranges across three hundred years of history. From the time of Napoleon through to the trenches of World War One and right up to special forces operations in the early 21st century.  A small team dropped in against the odds. Doom Squad is meant to be played as a solo game system pitting your team against the game engine. You can also opt for a multi-player game of 'co-operation' of two or several players going up against the game.  Your troops will be equipped with the latest high-tech weapons and equipment from their historical or current era; which can mean muskets, rifled carbines or assault carbines with red-dot sights.  It all depends on which period you pick. Rules are very simple and easy to use and are based around the use of one or more six sided dice to test for firing and close combat.  Players will control one or more special forces squads and will be faced with an enemy that can be tough, disciplined, confused, resolute, unsteady and always unpredictable.  This title is 44 pages and is a print book.  On our Tabletop Gaming Books page.  Use any miniatures you possess which are suitable in 28mm, 20mm or 15mm scale (heck even 6mm if you wish).

Here is a run down of the contents of the book as well as some page images too.

VNT40 Scorpion Scourge skuttling out now!

“The Barbarian kicked the door with a force no other member of the party could ever hope to match.  His fur clad boot splintering the wooden planks and the frame holding them too.  As the wood, now only good for a cooking fire, exploded into the room beyond the corridor the Barbarian stepped back and raised his  axe ready for any attack.  Silence came from within the room.  No Goblins or Night Horrors awaited the adventurers. Instead a strange sound began and then gained in volume.  Nothing could be seen in the room...and then.  Almost as one the Barbarian, Thief, Bard and Cleric noticed the floor was rippling.  Rippling and moving towards the broken remains of the door.  They could really have used a Wizard and a fireball but Ribald was gone.  They ran.  Hoping the mass of black scuttling Scorpions could not keep up.”

I have only ever seen Scorpions behind glass and never in the wild...just as well..scary.  These new white metal creatures are not likely to sting you though so that is great.  Now on the Alternative Armies website a new value pack of Scorpions in one pose. Go HERE or read on for more.

VNT40 Scorpion Scourge

This code contains  ten of one pose of white metal miniature approx 14mm long and 6mm tall to top of stinger.  They work in 28mm and 15mm scale for any fantasy setting plus modern, horror or any other setting. These miniatures are not supplied with bases and are supplied unpainted. Select your choice from the drop down product menu.  Choose from a pack or three packs with a 10% saving applied; or a massive 100 Scorpions saving 25% off the single creature price. No assembly required.  Go HERE. Poses in this code are as follows:

VNT40-01: Scorpion on the ground with tail raised and claws forward.

Here are some more images of the Scorpions including scenic shot with one of our 28mm Crystal Elves (CE24-04 Infantry with Halberd) plus a scale shot with 15mm and 28mm miniature to compare.  We have other codes suitable for use as multitudes and in your dungeon questing adventures.

FL29 Mischief of Rats

This code contains ten from two different poses of white metal miniatures approx 18mm in length. Great quality, choice and value. These miniatures are not supplied with bases and are supplied unpainted. Select your choice from the drop down product menu. Choose from a pack or three packs with a 10% saving applied; or a massive 100 mixed Rats saving 25% off a single pack price! Go HERE.

VNT29-02 Stricken Adventurer

When you sign up with a party all you see are riches and glory in store.  Sadly not for all.  For some the adventure ends in a tunnel or cavern injured with something nasty gnawing at your leg.  This fun miniature is an unfortunate adventurer who is being nibbled upon.  One of our favourites and great for your dungeon or gaming table.  Go HERE.

VNT38 Big Mouth Beast released!

Our first big 28mm scale fantasy release of the year is the Big Mouth Beast which was our festive season pre-order offer.  Our thanks for all those who took Alternative Armies up on the offer and we hope you are enjoying your maw monsters.  This creature is now on general release.  Go HERE or read on for more details.

VNT38 Big Mouth Beast

It is little more than a maw upon fast running legs!  Rows of serrated teeth within jaws which could eat a man whole!  Six eyes look for prey and its legs take it with great speed and nimble grace across any land flat or hazardous.  The Big Mouth Beast was sculpted by Kieran Billings and is a creature of nightmare. This multiple scale suitable monster is composed of four high quality resin parts and when assembled (with a small degree of pose choice).  

These parts are the body, the lower jaw, the left leg and the right leg and once assembled (which is not difficult as it is a durable wargaming model) the monster is approx 50mm long and 30mm tall with the mouth having internal detailing.  You can purchase one or three with a 10% saving by selecting that option on the product page.

It is suitable for 15mm as a mighty beast or 28mm as a normal sized creature.  It could be inter galactic spawn, it could be a wizard's creation, it might be from the dungeon dimensions or roaming the wastelands.  It will fit right in with your campaigns.  The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted and it shown by us on a 50mm square base.  We show other miniatures from our ranges for scale and these are not included.  These are a 15mm scale HOF90 Cultist Holy Guard (in yellow and 16mm tall), a 15mm scale MDA47 Illusionist (black robes and 17mm tall), a 28mm scale VNT31-05 Liche Lord (Undead Hero and 30mm tall) and lastly for Flintloque there is 5024 General Saindoux (30mm tall).  Go HERE.

Kieran Billings has sculpted some really nice creatures which are great for wargaming in several scales and settings.  Here they are and you can click through to the website if they catch your eye.  I love that Air Squid..so weird!

VNT39 Air Squid with Handler

VNT37 Crustacean Monster

VNT35 Greater Sandworm and VNT36 Sandworm Swarm

SKIRMISH TABLETOP RULES FOR POST APOCALYPSE MAYHEM 

A4 Format. Colour Covers. 68 Pages 

Sulphur is a set of sci-fi skirmish rules with its own extensive range of 32mm miniatures including infantry, vehicles and heroes. Sulphur has a distinctly post-apocalyptic feel to it which creates battles between rusty and improvised looking war wagons, ragged looking infantry squads, menacing heroes and satisfyingly impressive heavy weapons. The rules allow players to customise their war-wagons with their favourite weapons and equipment - and the vehicle miniatures themselves all come with a range of weapon options. Armies will be led by a number of heroes, characterful individual warriors with their own profile and special attacks. Infantry are divided into a number of categories such as Light Infantry, Assault Infantry, Warriors and Heavy Weapons. Each infantry squad has a particular function on the battlefield which if used correctly will improve their chances of success. Players need to learn how to use these troops to their best advantage as well as how to combine them with other squads in their force for maximum efficiency and effect. For instance, using light troops to identify targets, using heavy weapons to weaken and suppress the target and then sending in the warriors to finish the enemy off at close quarters. Sounds easy? Not so in practise! This means that it is not just a case of the dude with the biggest gun winning the day (although the game does have plenty of big guns!). The right troops have to be used at the right time in the right way. And beneath all of this the sinister threat from Sulphur, the insidious creeping mist and shadowy nightmares that lie within it - waiting to terrorise and devour even the bravest souls. It’s the apocalypse folks - and it’s going to get nasty!
