Here Come The Bastards - The Miniature Game of Drunk-Ass Space Orcs Expands!

Planet Smasher Games pulverised Kickstarter last year when they raised funds for Space Gits, their dexterity based miniatures game of drunk-ass space orcs. Now they’re over there hangover and back to wreak more drunken carnage with Here Come The Bastards, the games first expansion!

Here Come The Bastards is a vomit-proof* hardcover book which includes a host of new scenarios, new factions, and plenty of new artwork.

Space Gits is a dexterity-based miniatures skirmish game about drunk-ass space orcs lootin’, shottin’, and scootin’ from award winning designer Mike Hutchinson (Gaslands, A Billion Suns and Hobgoblin: Brutal Fantasy Battles). You play as a gang of drunk-ass space orcs (how many times can I write that in one article?) rioting through the megacity of Gnork. You are out for a rthumpin’ good time, and to look whatever isn’t nailed down.

You may notice it call’s itself a dexterity-based miniatures game. Well, that’s because of some innovative (some may call silly, but they just aren’t drunk enough) mechanics. To move you roll dice into the play area and move directly towards the dice, wherever they land. You shoot pretty much the same way, rolling dice and spraying bullets towardfs them, hoping someone is in the way. You fight using a variant on rock-paper-scissors… where each throw selects a different fighting action (throw shove, pinch, or thump). Both damage and activations are managed using little towers of dice that have to stay in contact with your little gits at all times. So if you move the model you also have to move the dice tower, and if the tiower falls down then so does your git - and they can’t get back up untiul a mate comes along and gives them a boot.

Along with the Here Come The Bastards expansion you can also get the core Space Gits rulebook and a whole bunch of STL Miniature Files. The Kickstarter campaign runs for the next 30 days so try not to get too drunk and back it!
