Introduction

Hello and welcome to the third edition of Wastelands, the post-apocalyptic miniatures wargame. This

version is designed to bring together some of the complexity of the first edition with some of the solo

play ideas of the second and a whole heap of new concepts and ideas.

Wastelands is not an easy game and nor should it be, the post-apocalyptic world is incredibly dangerous

in lots of ways so you’ll have to think carefully about how you develop your faction and how to approach

the battles that you will inevitably have to fight for survival.

I’d like to thank nb246 for the artwork which was so generously provided and to everyone that helped

me playtest the game and all the folks at

who

played previous versions and posted their battle reports and expressed an interest in this new version.

Playing Wastelands

Battles

The easiest way to start playing Wastelands is to fight a battle, either against another player or solo

playing both sides. This will help you get used to the battle system before you dive into a campaign.

Simply use the faction section and weapons tables to pick two equal point forces and starting battling. A

force of around 100 points is a good starting point.

Solo Campaign

The solo campaign is really the focus of this edition. In the solo campaign you create a small gang from

one of the factions and then set out to achieve the objectives you want to achieve. Perhaps you want to

become the most notorious band of raiders the wasteland has ever seen or grab yourself the finest

territory, maybe you want to build a band of legendary heroes or become a legendary defender of the

highways. You can do all this and more in the solo campaign. In this edition your faction has a

reputation, bad reputation generally means you’ll be offered less opportunities but you can do whatever

you please, good reputation generally means you’ll get offered lots of chances to advance your faction.

The ultimate aim of the solo campaign is to make you feel as though you are taking part in a coherent

story set in a post-apocalyptic world and all the factions, events and missions are designed with that in

mind.

Multiplayer Campaign

The multiplayer campaign lets two or more players manage their own faction, fighting battles between

themselves for territory and against other random enemies. Players can continue playing their factions

solo in between face to face games if they like.
