Earth Reborn - Part I

   Today I want to present my figures from the super-cool boardgame EARTH REBORN. This sci-fi skirmish boardgame was released by Z-Man Games in 2010. It is set in post-apocalyptic America, and features the struggles between two very different communities that have survived the nuclear fire. On the one hand is the N.O.R.A.D. faction, who have emerged from their city-bunker to rebuild the glory of ancient America. Opposing them are the twisted survivors of the Salem city-bunker, who have resorted to unspeakable and inhumane methods to remain alive for centuries underground.

   It's G.I. Joe versus Atomic Zombies in the wastelands of America... What's not to like?

The complete set of figures from the game

   This game comes with some very well done soft-plastic miniatures. Using my Army Painter shades and paints I whipped these off in just a couple of days, and I am happy with the results. Let me introduce you to the heroes and villains of Earth Reborn!

   First up we'll look at the N.O.R.A.D. faction, starting with their leader Colonel Nick Bolter.

Colonel Nick Bolter

   Gifted with an unbreakable spirit and unparalleled charisma, Bolter is a living symbol of bravery and strength, inspiring blind faith in his men. He, in turn, believes strongly in his men and makes it an absolute priority to ensure the survival of every member of his team.

Lieutenant Monica Vasquez

   Lieutenant Monica Vasquez was awarded a medal of honor at the early age of 17. During her military training, her target shooting scores shattered all previously held NORAD military records, regardless of gender. She is now NORAD’s elite sniper.

Agent James Woo

   James Woo is a specialist in espionage and stealth. He is nimble, fast, clever, and can move without being detected. His skills and knowledge make him the ideal asset to gather information and retrieve ancient knowledge.

Mammoth MK II combat walker

   Designed initially to enable surface exploration while shielding their pilots from radiation, the Mammoth walkers were later retasked for combat . This new model Mammoth MK II is equipped with weapons and is reinforced with military-grade shielding to be ready for potential skirmishes.

Stay tuned for Earth Reborn Part II!
