Judge Dredd: I am the Law! by Warlord Games - a 28mm Sci-fi Strategy Battle Game for 2 or More Players Using Miniatures

Product Information

Some may be surprised at the limited number of minis actually provided in the set– especially when compared to the complex setups shown in the rulebook. It is, almost inevitably, impossible to recreate the kind of battles pictured with what’s provided here. Warlord Games have given the player just enough to be getting on with. However, if you really want to recreate the world of the comics then you’re going to want to invest in many additional models, buildings and props. Mission Debrief Armour-Piercing:this depleted uranium / Teflon coated round will punch through body armour and hard cover. It is also effective against armoured buildings. This scenario is based on the story ‘Requiem for a Heavyweight’ as seen in 2000 AD progs 331–334. This story was also reprinted in Judge Dredd: The Complete Case Files 07. A blessing of Danu was placed upon Sláine that caused Earth power to channel through his body when suitably enraged. This would bring about a warp spasm, turning Sláine into a fearless, twisted giant of a warrior who could slay a handful of foes with every swing of his favourite axe, Brainbiter. In game, if Sláine Mac Roth rolls two special sides during a close combat roll, he has potential to “Warp Out”, and his miniature be replaced by Warp-Spasm Sláine, whose stat-line, though hardier, is a whole lot more unpredictable… Earth Tribes Warband Whilst Judges are highly trained and well-equipped, they both inhabit and protect a dangerous world. Demonic, undead and/or alien invasions are real possibilities, as are apocalyptic wars. Temporal and interdimensional travel exposes the world to threats from across time and alternative realities. Even domestic robots have a penchant for bloody revolt! Having invested so many years and resources in the training of their new Judges, the Justice Department is keen to maximise the Judges’ chances of survival. For this reason, Judges are issued with the very best equipment available. Equipment

Whilst an individual Fattie might seem a less than threatening figure, the first food raids saw massed wedges of obese activists trundling forward supported by their BeliWheels®. With their layers of flab providing a natural armour against anything but the most lethal weapons, little could stop them once momentum was gained.In one way it’s brilliant - with this one book, you’ll have all the rules to play out any scenario you can think of, no matter whether it includes vehicles, mounts or even rooftop chases. The book will also help you develop a strong sense of the fictional world of Mega-City One. However, the downside is that if you’re not already familiar with the game, or at least with other tabletop skirmish games, the learning curve will be very steep. Lawgiver: The standard sidearm of the Mega-City Judge, the Lawgiver can fire a variety of different rounds. These range from: Lawmaster: The standard mode of transport for Judges, the Lawmaster is an armoured motorbike fitted with bullet-proof tyres, a variety of weapons and a computer. This computer can control the Lawmaster autonomously, enabling the rider to dismount and leave the Lawmaster to act alone. A warrior almost on par with Sláine himself, Niamh is a match for most opponents. With a Shoot, Fight and Resist of 4, she is on par with some of the hardiest characters in the game. Her Move of 6 makes her, like Sláine and the other warriors of the Red Branch, one of the fastest on the table. A resilient fighter, her Hardy skill means that, although unable to perform any double actions other than Charge or Recover, she incurs no penalties to her stats when first issued with an Injury marker. Furthermore, Champion of the Goddess allows her to draw two Feat cards at the beginning of every game.

Not all rookies are destined to become street Judges. Some may show talents that predestine them to different posts within the Justice Department. Perhaps they show technical proficiency and are thus able to become a Tek-Judge? Those with a knowledge of medicine could be wasted in any role other than a Med-Judge, whilst others yet might be more suited to the dangerous glamour of the undercover Wally Squad or Accounts division policing. Some may even be selected to join the feared Special Judicial Squad, otherwise known as the Judges who judge the Judges. Body Armour: Judges wear toughened bodysuits, a variety of armoured pads and, of course, a helmet. This body armour is lightweight and durable enough to provide your tabletop Judges with heightened Resists stats, but not at the expense of their Evade. In one way it’s brilliant – with this one book, you’ll have all the rules to play out any scenario you can think of, no matter whether it includes vehicles, mounts or even rooftop chases. The book will also help you develop a strong sense of the fictional world of Mega-City One. However, the downside is that if you’re not already familiar with the game, or at least with other tabletop skirmish games, the learning curve will be very steep. In the Sláine Miniatures Game, the Earth Tribes of the goddess Danu battle the decayingDrune Lords and the relentless Fomorian Sea Demons, over the mist-soaked Land of the Young, in a fast-paced skirmish miniature wargame. Taking control of a small warband of warriors, champions and heroes, players will fight fast-paced battles to determine the fate of humanity in the pre-history of the world. Recruit legendary heroes, such as the titular Sláine Mac Roth, and chart their successes in the Cosmic Battle by performing feats and earning boons. A rookie Judge is recruited as a child and benefits from years of exhaustive training before (hopefully) graduating at 20 years of age. Once they hit the street as a full Judge, they are the front line of law enforcement on the lethal streets of Mega-City One.In addition, most advertising networks offer you a way to opt out of targeted advertising.

Mission Debrief Stub Gun:arguably one of the most dangerous weapons in the Justice Department’s arsenal, the Stub Gun fires a beam of energy so strong it can slice through almost any material. During a mission on Mars to rescue an erstwhile ally and recruit him to their ranks, the various members of the team reminisce about their experiences of the Volgan War, a fictional invasion of a fascistic Russia (but with an obvious Soviet aesthetic) started by the United States under the pretence of liberation but with the actual purpose of securing dwindling oil reserves, leading to the war’s unofficial designation as the Fourth Oil War. To limit human casualties, War droids were introduced on Russian and European battlefields, to which, inevitably, the Volgans countered with more and more robots of their own, led by the tyrannical Volkhan, Ikon of Ikons – blessed with a high rank, autonomy, and a horde of powerful robots. The Volgans were eventually defeated, but at great cost and with many an ethical quandary on the road to eventual victory.

The presentation and quality of all the set’s components is very high. The rulebook is a handsome volume filled with great 2000AD art. The minis are highly detailed (but be aware that they come unpainted and require a little assembly). Equally, the tokens, chips, cards and custom dice are all solid, although some of the iconographies could’ve been improved in places. The set also comes with a double-sided play mat featuring different streetscapes. This is of a generally decent quality. However, it doesn’t match up to any of the set specific scenarios! The terrain on the map actually introduced confusion into my own playthroughs of these missions. This is as it didn’t agree with the set-ups proposed. In fact, it makes little sense to use it as a beginner when starting out. This is frustrating given the intention of this set.In the 2080s speed and volume eating, ‘scoffing’, became a competitive sport and extreme obesity became the desired body image for many Mega-City citizens.
