6th Extinction Games has launched their Lands of Ruin Kickstarter to fund their hybrid post-apocalyptic wargame! Combining software and tabletop gaming with excellent miniatures, they have ventured into what I think is the future of modern wargaming.
Easily track the statistics, wounds and abilities of your miniatures with tablet driven software and explore the Lands of Ruin without the need of consulting your rulebook and the hassle of manual bookkeeping. So forget battlefields filled with markers, tokens and pieces of papers and use the easy to navigate software instead. Using the specially developed software more realistic gameplay can be introduced without slowing the game down while also offering a clear overview of your faction's situation during the turmoil of chaotic combat!
So what have the guys behind Lands of Ruin have to say? Lands of Ruin is a post-apocalypse tabletop wargame. However, it is not just another run-of-the-mill clone of every other game on the market. This next generation tabletop game utilises the recent advances in mobile technology to bring a more realistic, faster paced, and deeper gaming experience to the already mature tabletop wargaming genre. A companion tablet app (Android and iOS), called the “Command Console,” allows for more rapid gameplay, while simultaneously introducing a level of depth and realism that cannot be achieved in other game systems.
Even before the beginning of our Kickstarter campaign, we had already established a working relationship with a European miniatures manufacturer. We have completed a test production run, and are prepared to move to the production phase very quickly after this Kickstarter campaign succeeds.
