It is hard to believe this year is half way over! We still have so much more in store for all of you Fallout fans for this second half of the year and hope you are as excited for what’s to come as we are.
Fallout: Factions Rules PDF for Pre-Order Customers!
We will be sending out the rulebook PDF for all of those who preordered the Fallout: Factions- Battle for Nuka World Starter Set on July 23rd so you can look over the rules while you wait for your box to arrive!
The Fallout: Factions- Battle for Nuka World Starter Set has begun shipping in the US! Those who preordered the box set from our US webstore should be getting their orders unless you opted to keep your order delayed due to the dice shipment delay. We can’t wait to see this set on your tables. Snap some pictures and use #FalloutFactions and tag us on social media and tell us about how your battle for Nuka World is going!
As stated in our emails to customers last week, the UK webstore preorders for the Starter Set have been delayed until August 12th. This was caused by the unfortunate instability of international freight shipping around the Red Sea and current world events. If you ordered extra dice sets with your UK webstore order, there will be no added delay for your dice and the Starter Set will be shipping with those extra dice orders. Please remember to check your emails for the £10 voucher to spend on the UK webstore if you preordered as an apology from us. If you need further assistance regarding the delays to your preorder you can contact us at support@modiphius.com
Fallout Miniatures- The Mothman Has Landed!
This month we have been thrilled to release the highly anticipated Cult of the Mothman miniatures sets and free Dawn of the Mothman Rules Packet!
Dawn of the Mothman Rules Packet
The free PDF for Dawn of the Mothman Rules Packet has Unit and AI Cards for all new miniature sets to use in Fallout: Wasteland Warfare as well as Vault-Tec Approved Model Profiles for quick and easy force building. This packet also contains the new scenario, Equinox Interruptus, which has the Cryptid Hunters facing off against the Rogue Cult. And I know many people have asked if they can play as Cult of the Mothman in Fallout: Factions... and the answer is, yes!
This packet has rules for you to add your favorite moth loving faction to your Fallout: Factions games. *(Please note that we updated this packet on July 18th so if you downloaded it BEFORE this date you can download the updated version now for free.)
Cult of the Mothman - Followers
Right out of the Wilds of Appalachia we have the Cult of the Mothman Followers box set that includes 3 female cultists and 3 male cultists.
Cult of the Mothman - Clergy
You can’t have a cult without priests and prophets, right? The Cult of the Mothman Clergy box set comes with a High Priest, Wrathwing, 2 Disciples, and 2 Seekers miniatures. Will you please the Winged One with your efforts when you bring this faction to your table?
Cult of the Mothman - Mothman Eclipse
Each Mothman has its own unique personality and look but one thing they all have in common is they are usually worshipped by a crazed group of followers who see them as deities. The Cult of the Mothman Eclipse box set gives you 1 mothman and 2 hatchling miniatures. In the free scenario Equinox Interruptus that can be found in The Dawn of the Mothman Rules Packet PDF you will use the Mothman to help defend your High Priest, if you can!
Upcoming Miniatures
We have listened to feedback from the community that you would like a heads up on what miniatures you can expect to see in the coming months so that you can plan ahead on what you’d like to buy. Starting this month, we will be giving you sneak peeks here on the Fallout Friday blog on what miniatures we have releasing the next two months!
Crater Warlords
The Crater Raiders are known for their ‘civility’ to those who come in contact with them around their home in the Crater of Toxic Valley, at least for a time. Don’t let their pretty words and well-pressed suits fool you. Meg Groberg, Johnny Weston, and Lev make up this box set that will be available to order in August for £24 / $29!
Foundation Authority
Paige, Ward, and Aubrie make up the Foundation Authority miniatures box set. This group of survivors strive to bring safety to Appalachia among the ever growing threat of mutants, monsters, raiders, and cryptids. Perhaps you will find a safe space to rest your head when you add this set to your table in August, available for £24 / $29.
Legends of Vault 76
Vaults have a funny way of changing people. Experiments, time, and isolation, are just a few things that can alter a person after being bunkered away for most if not all of your life. And once you emerge from that safe, or not so safe, haven of buried steel and concrete into a world that has completely changed for the worse, who knows what you will become. The Legends of Vault 76 box set is cracking open the vault to you in September and will include a Raid Leader, a Wasteland Drifter, and a Sneaky Survivor miniatures, available for £25 / $30.
Zetans- Alien Invaders
Almost as in answer to our human Power Armor, this group of Zetan Invaders are encapsulated in a set of intimidating highly advanced armor of their own! You might want to make sure your crew is ready to face these cosmic invaders before these 2 Zetan Invaders land on your table! Beaming down to you in September for £20 / $24!
Zetan Invaders from Beyond
In a world where irradiated monsters walk the Wasteland, it’s surprising how few people still believe in aliens. But, believe it or not, the Zetan threat is very, very real. Zetan society has been interested in the inhabitants of Earth for centuries, covertly influencing, kidnapping, and otherwise interacting with the human race to fulfil whatever unknown aims they have. Since the end of the Great War, the only thing to have changed is how bold they’re being about it. Spot 3 Zetan Troopers, 1 Zetan Inquisitor, and 1 Zetan Drone in September for £35 / $42.
Form Fillable Vault-Tec Approved Profiles
Based on your feedback, we’ve put together both blank PDF and form-fillable PDF versions of our new Vault-Tec Approved profiles. These profiles provide pre-made units for quickly getting the game to the table, while these new blank profiles let you make your own if you don’t have the cards or want the simplicity of a single profile at the table over an array of cards.
You can grab these on our downloads page.
Fallout: The Roleplaying Game News
Wasteland Locales Map Pack 2
We have another exciting map pack for you releasing next week! Wasteland Locales Map Pack 2 features eight roadside locations including a Red Rocket Service Station, Drumlin Diner, Roadside Farms, Railway Station, Warehouse, Abandoned Shop Fronts, Garage, and even a Military Checkpoint! This map pack also includes a 38 page booklet that provides sample encounters for each location, loot tables for scavenging, and interesting NPC stat blocks.These scenarios are perfect to add into your existing campaigns or to run as mini scenarios for your group.
Errata Update
The newest errata updates have been added to our downloads page for Fallout: The Roleplaying Game products. Some of these updates include changes to the Core Rulebook, Winter of Atom campaign book, Rust Devils NPC Pack, Settlers Guide Book, Wanderers Guide Book, and Reilly’s Rangers NPC Pack. The Errata log can be found here and if you have found any other errors that have not been included in this errata release we encourage you to let us know by filling out the ongoing FAQ/Errata form here.
Wasteland Warfare Print on Demand Cards Update
The participation in our community poll about Print on Demand Cards was incredibly insightful and we are so thankful for every response. We love that we have a gaming community that is as passionate as the one we have with Fallout: Wasteland Warfare. You may have seen that as a result of the poll, we will be categorizing the cards by completed factions. What this means is that once all of the cards in a faction have been completed we will make them available to Print on Demand with DriveThruRPG. If you would like to save on printing and shipping costs we will also have Wave Bundles available using this service that will include cards for entire waves, rather than individual factions. We are working on backdating previous cards to include in this new initiative but for now only offer cards being produced for the current waves and factions. Backdating those cards is going to be a long process, and we still have work to do on the upcoming releases! We appreciate your patience as we do the work to get those included for you.
To reiterate what we have said in communications previously, going forward there will “no longer be an official, Modpihus released, physical card deck product.” However, we still have all cards available on our downloads page and we are still in collaboration with the designer of the official Fallout: Wasteland Warfare apps on both iPhone and Android to keep it up to date at a reasonable rate.
Link to the cards can be found here.
