Rumbleslam Is Live On Kickstarter From TTCombat
December 16, 2015 by deltagamegirl22
Let's get ready to rumble!!!
TTCombat's exciting, fantasy wrestling miniatures game, RUMBLESLAM, is live on Kickstarter now. This game is literally full of all the characters we love about fantasy miniature games with all the flair and attitude of wrestling.
But since this is fantasy wrestling, they've even kicked it up a notch- why battle with one wrestler against another wrestler, when you can take on teams of wrestlers?
In RUMBLESLAM, players will be trying to throw the opponent's team out of the ring. Yes, it can be very exciting if they're still conscious when you do, but it'd sure be easier if you knock them out first! With an action packed game like this, there'll be plenty of dice rolling as players take turns alternating model activation.
Even when it's the other player's turn, you will be rolling dice to try to fend off their wild moves.
Given the expected level of drama and show that we've all come to love in wrestling, there's even special crowd pleaser dice that can be played throughout the game- but be warned. As in real life wrestling (which is a rather amusing statement), the crowd is often a fickle bunch.
Sometimes they're on your side, but other times they just may not like you and you'll suffer a brutal "boo" which causes you to lose an action point.
To start, the core set will come with two wrestling crews - The Heavy Pounders and The Green Bruisers, but don't worry, there are plenty of add ons to jazz up your game with a fantasy twist on some wrestling favourites.
The game will come with basic stat cards for each character as well as a ton of upgrade stats and wild and crazy alternative moves.
What kind of fantasy crew would you like to take into the ring?

I’ve been a fan of their MDF terrain kits for a while now and since Troll Trader are effectively my FLGS, backing this was a no-brainer for me. My youngest is going to love this!
I like TT Combat, I do, and I like wrestling and fun quirky games. But why in this day and age do people launch KS projects with no rules or gameplay video to show? I would think that anyone doing their homework, especially folks with KS experience, would have known this is a big thing for game projects.
Ugh. Looks hilariously awesome and the minis look great. That said. It is xmas time … too many presents to buy and with a fat hunk of my KS money devoted to Westfalia’s halfling project … I just can’t personally kick in on this one.
I hope this does well and ends up being widely distributed, I’d certainly pick it up retail at some point next year. Cool little project!
Theme and the miniatures really appeal to me but I’m in the same boat as you. That and I’m backing the Kensei Undead Kickstarter.
