Charred Axle - Vehicular Combat in an Alien Star System
Lähetetty: Pe 20.10.2023 14:48
Hello everyone.
My name is Scott. I have been a miniature gaming enthusiast for 20 years or so with my main game being Warhammer 40k. When I moved to Finland my passion for the tabletop hobby genre was reignited when I met a wonderful group of likeminded individuals. Ive always been a creator and story teller at heart, Ive always had fun making home-brew scenarios or writing my own small games. Enough about me and onto the reason I created this topic...
I have finally released my own tabletop game. It is called Charred Axle and is played with models mounted on 50mm bases, you only need 1 miniature to start your own career as a Rigger and the required table/arena size is only 50cm x 50cm so you don't need an entire room to play it - coffee table, picnic blanket, train table or an airplane bathroom should all be big enough...don't quote me on the last one of those. ;)

For those of you wanting to try the game, digital copies of the rule book are available for FREE and so are the tokens you need to play. You'll just need your own miniatures. Official Charred Axle miniatures and a paperback copy of the Destruction Manual (rule book) are available to purchase from the website along with everything else you need.

What is Charred Axle?
Set in a distant star system called Tarapor, Charred Axle is a turn-based, miniature tabletop game that allows players to build custom vehicles, known as ‘Rigs’, to be pitted against each other in a contest of arena combat. Rigs can be designed to fit multiple different playstyles: Heavily armoured and slow moving, able to withstand massive amounts of damage. Fast and nimble, able to run circles around its opponents. Or something in between. No matter how a Rig is designed it will need to put on a show for the spectators in order to score the most Favour and be crowned the victor. An armoury of weapons is available to help players do this - each with their own powerful traits known as a Specialities. Even the Rig Crews are customisable; Drivers and Gunners come with a list of their own Specialities that can turn the tide of a game.
Players must have their wits about them for various threats, known as ‘Phenomena’, can occur throughout the game, such as - carnivorous creatures and plants, massive lightning storms and even cybernetically enhanced creatures. Whether players choose to play their game on a planet, a moon or an asteroid, something is bound to happen that will change the pace of the game.

Thank you for your time and I hope some of you find my little game entertaining. I designed it with simple fundamental rules, so that most people can understand the rules and play the game, but with a large amount of customisation options so you can go as deep as you like to in crafting your perfect Rig.
Now there only remains one question...Do you think you've got the skill to be crowned the next Charred Axle Champion? If you do, we'll see you in the Arenas!
