Here's a word from Scoutsifer, who is one of our guests this month :
Greetings, mech enthusiasts!
I'm Scott, the creative mind behind Scoutsifer Studio, and I welcome you to the riveting world of "Of Oil and Iron." Here, we dive into the heart of a dieselpunk universe, where towering mechs known as "Rigs" dominate the landscape.
In my Patreon realm, we explore the intricate dance of politics and war in the Smoglands, a world veiled in industrial haze and political and corporate intrigue. As a patron, you'll gain exclusive access to a growing collection of meticulously crafted Rigs, each embodying the essence of the factions vying for supremacy. These diesel-powered giants are not mere models; they are the embodiment of a world shaped by conflict, innovation, and the relentless pursuit of resources.
Each Rig comes as a multipart, multipose miniature – supported in both 28mm and 15mm scales. Each month, you can look forward to 2-3 kits, which includes monthly Rigs and terrain kits. Also included scattered amongst Patreon posts are many stories and extracts of the lore, as we together build the world of the “Smoglands”. This year you can also look forward to a ruleset and lore in the form of a book and gaming assets for a mecha skirmish game, based on a D10 system and loaded with mech customization!
Join me on this journey, where every Rig tells a story, and every story is a glimpse into the intricate tapestry of the Smoglands. Your support on Patreon fuels the creation of more Rigs, expanding the narrative, and bringing to life the intricacies of this dieselpunk saga. This January, you can get the "Defiance" Heavy Rig from the Freegear Coalition faction and several terrain kits. (edited)
Gear up, Ironclads! Let's forge a future in the smog-laden landscapes of "Of Oil and Iron." You can also join other dieselpunk mecha enthusiasts over on the Scoutsifer Studio Discord – see you there! Cheers, Scott
