Waste Knights

A post-apocalyptic adventure game set on the ruined continent of Australia, where players take on the roles of heroes roaming the Waste to complete a shared Mission while competing for Reputation. Players move across a modular hex map in Vehicles, manage four vital resources (Fuel, Ammo, Health, Radiation), explore locations revealed by Wasteland cards and face mutated beasts, corrupted machines and hostile humans. Combat uses range settings, Combat cards and a variety of melee and ranged weapons, with one opponent acting as the Waster to control enemy choices. Progression comes from completing Tasks, acquiring Gear cards and trading via a barter system; games mix tactical combat, skill tests and resource management.
