A downloadable game

The year is 1947. 

30 years ago, the Cataclysm struck. A rift between worlds plunged Europa into an Ice Age and exposed our world to the relentless horrors known as the Jötunn. Drawn to our warm and resource rich world, immense, ink-black monsters crawled, ran, slithered and flew outward, wrecking city after city. 

Armies crumbled and millions perished. Our please for mercy were as ineffective as our weapons. Old feuds melted away in the face of annihilation and together, we made monsters of our own, Brassbounders, and closed the Rift. When the storms finally withdrew, our land was littered with corpses of man, machines and monster. 

Now, a generation later, we have incorporated their technology into ours. Adamantine, the material that made the Jötunn impervious to all but the heaviest weapons is essential in almost every field from medicine to construction. As the battlefields are picked clean of any remaining Adamantine, the world's two super powers, the Coalition and Pact squabble over who is entitled to what little remains. Tensions are at an all time high, and all it will take is a single spark to ignite all-out war once more...

Brassbound: Adamantine Dawn is a two-player, tabletop war game set in a dieselpunk post-apocalyptic setting. Towering Brassbounders lead legions of soldiers and tanks across ruined battlefields to secure precious Adamantine reserves. Play as the high-tech Coalition, the pragmatic Pact, or create your own unique faction with their own identity and backstory. Using the Unit Creator, you can bring your own models and units to life!

Getting started is easy! Learn the core rules in 15 minutes by playing the Quick Start Scenario. Follow the step-by-step instructions to craft your armies, choosing from 16 different models. You can use whatever loose bricks you have or buy the models from us directly.

Craft a dynamic battlefield rich with Strategic Points to contest, cover to hide behind, and terrain to create interesting choke points. Are you fighting in the ruins of a city pillaged by the Jötunna burned-out forest, or over an industrial wasteland? You get to decide!

Blow your opponent to bricks with fun and easy to learn mechanics by watching the Learn to Play video below:

This game is awesome. It's fun, with quick but engrossing gameplay, tactical combat with a great cover system and overall a entertaining experience. However, it's not without a scatter of minor issues will rise during gameplay, but these are easily fixed wether by your own choices or other rules. The gameplay may be confusing at first, so I recommend playing the included rules for the first game to learn before playing a proper game. The rules appear long but are intuitive and include building instructions for the basic troops. It also includes the Unit Creator, an awesome tool to allow you to make your own troops easily to integrate into your games. Overall, it's an impeccable game that will easily entertain you for multiple hours on end, so check it out!

It's a lot of fun in a fast paced game, perfectly paired with a brick building experience. I love how you can now design your own units.

Looks very cool, reminds me how as a kid I was playing wargames with LEGO :)

The new look is amazing. Really love the colors and the logo. :)
