Overview

ENTER THE DEADZONE

Deadzone takes place in containment zones – cities or whole planets that have been erased from planetary maps and left for dead. You control an elite team of soldiers ready to enter the potentially lethal Deadzone and scavenge for whatever lucrative resources you can find. But competition is fierce, and other Strike Teams will be out to thwart you on your mission. Get in, get out, get rich, or get dead.

CINEMATIC, IMMERSIVE GAMEPLAY

Deadzone uses an innovative cube-based system for movement and shooting. Throw your tape measures in the garbage because you’re never going to need them again! Apart from DIY, of course. Models can be moved anywhere in a cube, which ensures you can make the best use of cover and obstacles to avoid the enemy, and movement takes seconds, rather than minutes. Shooting is just the same – measure the distance in cubes and, if you can see it, you can shoot it! Wargaming has never been this fast or cinematic.

MORE THAN 5 YEARS OF RULES DEVELOPMENT

Since the release of Deadzone: Second Edition in 2016, we’ve been refining the rules to make them faster and more streamlined. Third Edition incorporates all the changes and improvements made in the previous Outbreak and Escalation supplements, along with a host of other refinements. This is the Deadzone you love… just better. If you’ve never played before… well you’ve just found your new favourite game.
