SKIRMISH WARGAMING IN THE FALLOUT WASTELAND

“One of the core truths of the Wasteland is that everyone wants their cut, and they’ll do whatever they have to in order to get it. Most who try end up face-down in a crater somewhere, not a thing to their name–barring the bullet in their back. You want to make it anywhere out there, you need more than just a dream: you need the right people at your back so that they can take the bullets for you. Between the Brotherhood, the Super Mutants, the Raiders, and even those well-meaning few who think their way of living is the only right one, there’s plenty of competition for that cut of the world. So, you’d better be the best of the best, or else this place will chew you up and spit you right back out again.”

WHAT’S IN THE CORE RULEBOOK?

This book contains all you need to know to take to the Wasteland, teaching you the rules of play, the in-depth Campaign system, and showcasing the iconic Factions of Fallout, helping you decide which flag to carry to battle. Combined with the Fallout: Factions “Battle for Nuka-World” Starter Set, or the Fallout: Factions - Tokens and Terrain Pack 1, you’ll have everything you need to pick a Faction and start your journey to become the de-facto ruler of the Wasteland – as long as you don’t mind crushing a competitor or two along the way.

The 112-page full-colour hardcover Fallout: Factions Core Rulebook features:

  • Welcome to the Wasteland: An introduction to wargaming, and all you’ll need to play Fallout: Factions.
  • Playing a Game: The core rules you need to play the fast-playing, high-risk, high-reward tabletop skirmish wargame.
  • Preparing to Play: How to set up a game, with an overview of the in-depth scenario system that keeps each game interesting.
  • The Story Phase: Details for growing your crew and ascending to legend – or what to do if you end up a footnote in another crew’s story.
  • Appendices: Faction Lists (Brotherhood of Steel, Super Mutants, Survivors, Raiders), Weapons, Perks, Legends of the Wasteland and more – everything you need to bring your own touch to your crew!

WHAT IS FALLOUT: FACTIONS?

Fallout: Factions is a skirmish-level wargame for two players, where you take control of Wastelanders vying for power in an irradiated hellscape, full to bursting with monsters, mercenaries, and murderous miscreants – all doing exactly the same. Over the course of several games, crews will rise and fall, each moving through their own stories thanks to an intricate Campaign system.

On the tabletop, players control a unique group of miniatures, representing a core Faction from the Fallout universe, and bring them to battle the crews of other players in a fast-paced, dice-hurling, action-packed skirmish wargame – where every action can have long-lasting consequences.

Grow your unique Leaders and Champions into veritable Legends of the Wasteland, or hire on renowned and recognisable characters to tame the battlefield; use every dirty trick you can to make sure that, when the sun sets on the rad-blasted landscape, it’s setting with you standing tall.

Played over a 2x3 ft. battlefield, Factions promises quick and engaging gameplay, where no two fights ever turn out the same way. With a host of free online content to supplement and expand your games, the possibilities – and perils – are endless.

Easy reading, needs an edit pass
Format: Kindle
Bottom Line Up Front: good enough to buy sequels. The premise of the story is set up well, pacing is overall decent (coincidentally, about real-time with the reader). The characters are simple, boiling down to one property for personality, one for motivation, and one for looks. However, they play believably against each other and there's no feeling of railroading (except one place, more on that later). The chapter prefaces offer a nice world building method unconstrained by the first person exclusive story itself. On the other hand... Tell me the book was written during Trump-era mask mandates without saying "The book was written during Trump-era mask mandates". Those references, while amusing now, will be dead in a few years (unlike the reference to SpaceBattles which is eternal). Speaking of: The book could use a professional editor to fix things like "gravity thingamaBALL" being two pages later called a "gravity thingamaGRENADE" and described as a cylinder, easy to tie to. Clearly the author changed the shape for convenience but forgot to change the earlier mention (also, metal cylinders slip out of nooses. If you write an ACME 10-ton weight, shape it like a weight and be done with it ;). There were other similar niggles that I forgot now, and I saw no major plotholes... But remember: SpaceBattles forum feedback does not an editor equal. Overall, nice way to spend sick days with 40 C fever.

Just from the beginning, I'm hyped
Format: Kindle
Just from reading the first few chapters, I'm excited. I hate having to deduct stars for non-story related issues, but this formatting is really hard to read. This is much easier to read on Neovel. I started reading it there after Amazon had recommended this book to me. I had no idea we had a web-novel to (light?-)novel pipeline in English! After the first few chapters, I bought the book here to support the author, but trying to read it is a very poor experience. The spacing and sometimes fonts are wrong and make it really hard to read, which is odd because the formatting is great on Neovel. It's almost like it was copied over into ebook using a poorly written tool that didn't properly convert various tags. The primary issue is a lack of indentation on paragraphs. There's also that the AI speaks in italics, but sometimes the italics are missing. Some edits have been made from the web novel, though they seem mostly spelling fixes. The character's point totals are significantly different in Chapter 26 of the web novel vs this book. I haven't re-read the ebook from the beginning though, so I don't know why there's such a difference. I'm not sure which one is better to read, though for some reason the author never put volumes 2 and 3 on Amazon so you'll need to read them over there anyway. Update: As a huge fan of the series, I raised my star rating even though I still stand by the formatting issues. It's not fair to have that tarnish the content rating though. Also, of course, future volumes have continued to be published since then.

What a Great Ride
Format: Kindle
This book was a fun ride from start to finish. While not fully LitRPG, but sorta' LitRPG light based on the system that's set up, the world building makes sense and fits the story very well. The real shining star was the character development. I felt like I knew the characters after a few lines and as the story developed, casual comments helped build a deeper web of interrelationships. Also loved the blurbs at the start of the chapters - thought they really added to the world building and backstory in a fun way. Can't wait to read more about Cat!

Wonderful
Format: Kindle
This was everything I was hoping for and more. Great world building, awesome characters and a mythology that just left you wanting more. Little snippets at the start of each chapter that hints at the history of the world at large while also slightly framing the content of that chapter? Spot on. My one issue, and I believe others have pointed it out, is the fact that the text is grey and not white, which can make it harder to read when you’re, say, outside. But that’s a formatting thing and has no bearing on the contents. I’ll be waiting in line to get the sequel as soon as it appears! Oh, since Amazon can be iffy about it, the LGBTQ+ tag is accurate!
