Ah that's very good to hear. What set of figs did you go for out of interest?

**Vorian**

Between 3 of us we got the TNG crew, Klingons and Romulans. Only cracked open the aliens so far

**Alpharius**

PVC minis?

Pics please!

We'll consider it OT here as it will be representative of what we can expect!

**Fan67**

Not a big fan of recent rules leaks (like agility serving as HP for certain characters), i am more old fashioned, and agility always seemed more armor/to-hit modifier.

But at least super mutants rely on End for HP so i’m fine. Wargame requires more level of abstraction, and populous fights in Fallout Pen-and-Paper were humongously overextended. And i suppose if you find the game commercialy sucessful, nothing stops you from adding RPG supplement for S.P.E.C.I.A.L. fanboys like me.

You guys are doing great job so far, i’ve ordered huge pile of miniatures, hope there will be no serious bumps during shipping in March.
My local gaming group already started to build terrain for your game, isometric Fallout 1-2 style.
It is really my child memories manifested in resin, well, mostly, because i played more original dilogy than anything else from the franchise.

Realy looking forward to characters like Vic, Sulik, Skynet, Marcus and Horrigan in further Add-Ons.
Also crossed fingers for Vault 0 robots (i played them most in fallout pnp, loved paper miniatures

) and sentient Deathclaws (like Goris) as playable pvp fractions.

So much to hope for!

All the star trek stuff is resin.

I could take some photos tomorrow, but the fuzzy crap photos my phone would take wouldn't tell you much! The photos Jon posted on the previous page of bare resin show you the kind of quality you'll get.

What I have in hand are like that. I haven't had to do any hot water bending, Worf having a snap at the wrist was only minor damage, but that glued easily enough. Other than that it's been very minor clean up

So those are Resin models not the Starter Box PVC?

I like how they look that's for sure!

I'm debating playing as Super Mutants now I've loved their stances from the renders and they look pretty spot on painted up... but Brotherhood since FO1 cant betray my brothers lol.

When are we gonna get Raiders and Synths, Wave 2? or just Synths for 1.1?

I haven't followed a game so closely my whole life... My wife calls me a dork

Side Note : The FFG Fallout game lives up to my standards of Fallout and the minis are 28mm to 32mm so Im happy

Are you going to use that for the exploration stuff, and then add the map? How would this cross over with the RPG?

Ah, sorry about that!

I agree that their 'resin' looks good - I'm wondering about their "PVC" now...

I don't think I get what you are asking

. The games I think will be pretty different. Like Risk Vs Chess. FFG's Fallout focuses on the story and some personal development but is missing some stuff from the game. The enemies are 1 at a time where Modiphius' game is your group vs blank group or your settlement vs a group of blank.

I meant I could use the miniatures for add-ins to Wasteland Warfare

.

I'm using FFG's fallout as a filler for Wasteland Warfare anyway, It's not to expensive and can be played solo.

**Pacific**

Is that board game actually out yet? Thought it was due along next year at some point!

If the minis from that fake could be used for the tabletop game as well that would be good (although obviously the sculpt detail wouldn't be anything like as good)

**Maddok_Death**

Yeah pre-orders of the game were released two weeks ago I think. I've painted up 2 of them. I cant figure out how to add the image so here is the link to my gallery pictures here on dakka. I think the quality is pretty good, I dont have any complaints.

For those waiting to pre-order from their local store, according to the latest newsletter now's the time:

YOUR LOCAL STORES SHOULD NOW BE ABLE TO PRE-ORDER FALLOUT: WASTELAND WARFARE!
- Also news of an upgrade to the Starter Scenic Set & Resin Starter! -

If you've been hanging on to support the pre-order via your local store the wait is over! By now our distributors should have passed on the order information to your friendly local gaming stores but you can help us make sure your local games store has everything they need to know!

We have launched the pre-order for the Two Player PVC Starter Set, The Red Rocket Scenic Set, and all the faction boxes (Super Mutants, Brotherhood of Steel & Survivors) through distributors. Instead of Nuka Cola Girl, retailers have a different pre-order bonus of the Alien Zetan which comes with the Blaster Pistol weapon card - if you order the PVC 2 Player starter set through retail before the end of January then you'll get one of these. NOTE! Your local store may have an earlier cut off date as they need to get their orders in to distributors before the end of January so please check!

If you've pre-ordered online already with us, or plan to soon don't worry! When we launch our Spring Wave 2 pre-order which includes the Enclave, Raiders and Institute we'll be swapping around the pre-order bonuses.

That means your local retailers will get Nuka Cola Girl, and Modiphius webstore pre-orders will get the Alien Zetan. You'll also be able to pick up both of them from us at any events we attend through the year - so far that includes UK Games Expo, GenCon, Essen, Dragonmeet and more to be announced in the US and Europe.

MADE TO ORDER ITEMS!

Some of the items in the pre-order are made to order and only available from our webstore or direct to retailers. We have launched a direct to retail webstore just to support your local stores www.modiphiusretail.com which includes free shipping on bulk orders. Remember you must be a registered retailer to sign up.

If you want to be able to order the following sets through your local retailer please pass this on and ask them to sign up for an account and they can order them in if they get us orders before Jan 31st (to guarantee delivery at launch).

This includes:

- Resin Two Player Starter Set
- 2 Player Starter Models Collectors Resin Set
- Super Mutants: Behemoth
- Wasteland Starter Scenic Set (and all the individual sets)
- Wasteland Creatures Core Box (and all the individual sets)
- Wasteland Robots Core Box (and all the individual sets)
- Terrain Expansion - Turrets
- Acrylic Range Rulers

WASTELAND STARTER SCENIC SET UPGRADE!

After working with our factory we've been able to bump up the contents of the Starter Scenic Set to match the contents of each of the individual scenic packs giving you more value - in fact you're now saving £60 on the individual sets.

We've added the following:
- 1 Extra Nuka Cola Machine, plus the parts for each machine
- 1 Extra Wall Mounted Console
- 3 Extra Vault-Tec Crates

Plus we're adding a set of cards to the box set including the Nuka-Cola Machine search deck and Vault-Tec Search Deck. We'll reveal more about this soon.

So now you're getting 26 High quality resin miniatures. Here's a picture to remind you what's in the box now!

We'll be posting the next Development Blog this week with a discussion of the Settlement system, and revealing a whole bunch of cards that have just been approved by Bethesda. We're working very had to get everything ready for production but need to give Bethesda plenty of time for approvals - it looks like the rule book will be signed off in January and we'll share it free online in PDF as soon as it is. In the run up we'll have lots more previews though.

The following are already in production - the Survivors, Super Mutants and Brotherhood of Steel Core Boxes along with the resin version of the Two Player Starter set miniatures since we already know there's huge demand for all of them we're aiming to build up as much stock to meet the demand!

Which brings me to another upgrade to announce! The resin version of the Two Player Starter set will now come in a specially stickered version of the actual retail box so those of you picking this version don't miss out.

That's it for today, please pass this on to your local retailer - or just tell them to head to www.modiphiusretail.com to sign up for the special Fallout: Wasteland Warfare made to order items - it's as simple as that!

**Pacific**

Ah.. that's interesting about the resin starter set.

Was hoping to get that from a retailer. Had an email from Wayland Games with the list of items they are selling (which otherwise looks pretty comprehensive), but might drop them a note and see if they can get hold of the resin set.

**Binabik15**

Oh crap this reminds me I still haven't got (access to) the Infinity RPG stuff my mother gift-pledged for me back then. Older women and backerkit don't mix.

My brother and cousin might want the Fallout stuff, I should tell them about it.

**Geifer**

In addition to the model photos posted on the previous page, Modiphius updated their web store with the final bottle cap token design:

**Pacific**

I've been collecting beer and coke bottle lids for about a year. Yes I am that much of a loser!

Am hoping to use them as funds for a campaign I'm going to run (assuming that's appropriate)

**Geifer**

I don't. Ain't nobody getting none of my caps!

But don't worry, I would have hoarded bottle caps too if everything wasn't plastic these days.

**Dream.Warrior**

Having recently got again into minis and JUST started playing Fallout 4 yesterday, I couldn't be more excited for this!

As many have said earlier I would love to see NCR & Legion here but still it's more than enough with everything that's been unveiled up until now.

Hopefully I'll have enough time to finish painting Shadespire & Necromunda until May when I'll inmerse myself into Wasteland Warfare!

**Dakka Flakka Flame**

How much time is still left on the pre-order? I'm still waiting to hear back from my FLGS and I might just skip them and order directly, if that's still an option.

I think you'll have time until they ship the first wave on May then there will be another preorder for wave two

Pre-orders are still very much open if you did want to jump on board, but we have also revealed the LGS pre-order bonus figure if you prefer to shop where you play.

**hobojebus**

The alien is nice but really who's gonna pass on nukagirl?

Not really much of an option if you live in the US and are ordering from a US company. So alien it is. Alien mini is free on pre orders submitted before 1/31/18. Ordering directly from the main site gave no real benefit or discount where other locations gave 20% off so. I am onboard for the base game anyway.

**JonWebb**

Plus you can always get Nuka Girl at a later date from a convention or similar.

We are not planning on locking her away in the Vault if you miss the chance to get her from the wave one pre-order and I am all in favour of you folks ordering locally and supporting where you play.

Having a stable and supported scene in LGS around the globe will only help the game continue and grow.

**Aeneades**

I believe Nuka Girl will be the wave 2 preorder bonus for store purchases and the Alien will be the exclusive for direct sales.

That's correct. I've quoted the newsletter stating this further up the page.

Hobojebus isn't wrong, though. I wouldn't pass up Nuka-Girl.

**Desubot**

Wait so am i not getting nuka girl? i preordered directly like the week it went live.

**Aeneades**

If you preordered directly from Modiphius and was above the freshold to receive one then you will get one. If you preordered from a store then you will receive the alien.

Which is then switched around for the next wave (Enclave, Raiders, Institute) so that if you order through the same channel, you get the opportunity to pick up the other special miniature.

Nothing to worry about, your current order didn't change. If you order by web store and exceeded the threshold, as said you'll get Nuka-Girl.

**Desubot**

Great That was tripping me out for a sec

thanks.

**Maddok_Death**

MiniatureMarket.com just put of FO Wasteland Warfare (FOWW?) up on their pre-orders!

I got some more stuff pre-ordered. My FLGS said they are gonna wait on getting a shipment.
