Future of Zone Wars

Wed 17 Jul 2024, 09:49

Hello everyone!
A friend brought Zone Wars to our game night yesterday and we had a blast playing it!
Ive been following the game since announcement, but never had the money nor time to try it out.
So happy we finally did.
So, what is the future of Zone Wars? Will we see more products? Updates, erratas?
How had your och experience with Zone Wars been?

For me personally its great. Its the only game I can get my partner to play. The rules are streamlined and simple but not dumb or overly complex. Coming from Fallout wasteland warfare which basically no one wants to play. It just takes too long to setup and play a game. Not saying its bad. Its just that games like these can really suffer from the need to have massive armies or overly complex rules its hard to get people to get into it.

Zone wars solved that for me. Currently playing campaign with partner and I have also played some solo which works absolutely fine.

Same here, my wife loves the game! I do have plans to make a few homemade teams and scenarios of my won but i would love to see Free League release another box set.

A little saddened to see this post is 4 years old. I am very into this game, and while I am eternally greatful this is not another power creep game constantly forcing people to buy new products to stay competitive I would love to see more and to further support Zone Wars.

Some things that come to mind for me:
-More characters for each team in a set that also includes some additional cards (mutant powers, artifacts, etc)
-An expansion that adds more scenarios and zone cards, possibly with some more options for campaign play included
-Models for the various zone threats
-more teams/factions

What post is four years old. This thread is five months old. Perhaps you are confused with the date when people joined the forum?

We have a vital no-official facebook group where we share pictures, game ideas and psd so you can make own terrain and characters.

I made a rubbit team with names from the hot summer of -94 Swedish football team.

Love this game...super quick and pure chaos on the table. Would love more factions and models for the existing factions. Also a longer campaign, more zone cards, more artifacts would be fun.

Here is hoping Free League is going to continue support.

Yes, would love to see more ! I had a blast playing it with a friend. We don't have time to start big wargames but we love figs... Zone Wars fits perfectly.

Maybe other Free League RPG's will have a wargame with same set of rules ?

I can see on the Alien KS that one of the stretch goals is Skirmish Battle Rules. Since the Alien RPG is using a variant of the Year Zero-Engine rules (just as Zone Wars) I guess that the Skirmish Rules for the Alien miniatures will be an adapted version of this.
