Mongoose Publishing Press Release - Judge Dredd Rulebook Previewed

From the Mongoose Publishing Website

400 million people, and every one of them a potential criminal – welcome to the world of Mega-City One and Judge Dredd!

The Judge Dredd miniatures game has been around a few years now, but now we are really ramping things up with a range of new models, all spearheaded by the new Judge Dredd miniatures game rulebook.

Judge Dredd Rulebook

This is a 240 page full colour hardback, with all the rules you need to build a force and take to the streets of Mega-City One in a campaign that will see heroes rise and villains fall (or vice versa!). The core rules are simple and quick to learn, but with enough tactical depth to keep you playing for years to come.

Inside the Rulebook...

Eighteen different forces are available in the core rules, giving you a wide choice to match your playing style, ranging from the iconic Judges to mutated vermin from the depths of the irradiated Cursed Earth!

• Justice Department
• Brit-Cit Justice Department
• Citi-Def
• Street Gang
• Ape Gang
• Mobsters
• Fattie Stampede
• Cursed Earth Desperadoes
• East Meg Invasion Force
• Apocalypse War Resistance Unit
• Sky Surfer Gang
• Lone Vigilante
• The Angel Gang
• The Dark Judges
• Chief Judge Cal’s Personal Retinue
• Zombie Horde
• Demonic Cabal
• Renegade Robots

The Citi-Def, Ready to Shoot!

The Fattie Stampede

Beyond that, however, the core campaign system allows you to bring famous characters from the 2000AD comic strips straight into your games – no need for special scenarios or permission from your opponent. They can be present during standard campaigns, so you can use models such as Judge Dredd himself, Stan Lee, Galen DeMarco, or perhaps a Judge from one of the other Mega-Cities.

Judges from other Mega-Cities

We have also included Famous Firefights, scenarios that allow you to play out actual scenes from the comic strip, such as Judge Dredd’s encounter with the Cosmic Punks and their leader, Gestapo Bob Harris.

A Famous Firefight

The all new Judge Dredd miniatures game rulebook is due for release on October 18^th and until then we will be running a series of previews on Planet Mongoose that delve into all aspects of the game, so stay tuned!
You can pre-order a copy of the Judge Dredd miniatures game rulebook  from here and have it sent to you on day of release, giving you plenty of time to prepare your forces for the battles to come!
