Description

Combat Zone is a tabletop miniatures skirmish game in 25mm scale. CZ is set in an alternate near future where corporations have walled off cities to protect their economic interests. Economies have crumbled as corporations have turned to military warfare as a means of assuring their financial futures. Destitute gangs, corporate para-military and combat robots all take part in battles to scratch out an existence in this Mad Max-esque world.

Quotes (from this video)
  • Still just don't really like the newest edition of War Cry or sorry not War Cry, Killteam.
  • It seems like it's not about trying to kill the other guys. It seems like it's more about just like it doesn't seem like a war game.
  • There's also a lot of tokens to keep track of and stuff like that and that seems to get even worse in um Shatterpoint.
  • Infinity rules are free.
  • This is the essentials start here box and it's like 40 bucks and it comes with six models, three per side. It comes with six dice. Evidently, there's a ruler in there. There's card stock or cardboard chipboard like uh terrain, printed terrain. There's a card stock mat. Uh, there's cards. There's also the fancy book about how to get started and all that stuff. And uh, it just seems like it's a really good deal.
  • Just started playing Notorious, which is really easy solo RPG. Basically a Star Wars bounty hunter uh hunting targets on a planet based on Ronin.
  • Uh subscribe to Vince Venturella on YouTube. Vince Venturella and Sam Lens. Sam Lens artwork. I would definitely subscribe to both of them.
