Radio Dishdash Bring Ultramodern Combat To Kickstarter
November 5, 2018 by brennon
The team from Radio Dishdash have taken to Kickstarter with another ruleset AND collection of miniatures for those that want to try out some Modern Warfare tabletop gaming.
The rules of Ultracombat will focus in on Modern Warfare that spans the globe right now and gets you stuck into the skirmish engagements that happen between squads in both urban and rural settings.
The game has been going through playtesting for six months and they've tried to make it a tight and realistic experience of Modern Warfare on the tabletop. It builds on the rules they developed for Skirmish Sangin and the like which we know Gianna is a big fan of.
US Vs Russia?
When it comes to the miniatures from the Kickstarter campaign we're seeing a real focus on the clash between the soldiers of both the US and Russia.
With the world being in the state that it is, it is becoming more and more of a possibility that these particular forces are going to fight. Added to that, both the US and Russia have some of the highest spec equipment and training out there, giving you a cutting-edge force to use on the tabletop.
The miniatures are all in 28mm scale so they will work alongside a lot of other Modern ranges out there. From what we're seeing already of the 3D renders the details are pretty sharp and hopefully when they get translated into real-world that gets carried across.
When it comes to the Kickstarter, you can either snag yourself the US or Soviet forces OR get your hands on both. There's no reason that they can't be used to go up against Insurgents and the like as well as possibly fighting each other.
Oh, and if you really want to go over the top you also have some big vehicles like the US Stryker.
Most soldiers on the ground are accompanied by armour that is sent in to protect them and watch over their advance. So, if you fancy making sure the enemy stays hidden away then this would be a good idea.
Are you going to be checking out this Kickstarter in more detail?

Just the thing for special forces lover’s.?
I will certainly keep an eye on this one!
Already backing this one. And hoping to see more of the stretch goals met.
The rules will also cover more then just U.S. and Russian Federation. With squad TO&E for U.K. and French forces already Posted up. There should be more to fallow in the future. You can also just pick up the rules if you are not interested in playing ether of the two forces provided.
There are two how to instructional videos on the main campigne page and a added AAR with Squad TO&E on this page.

Guys despite what our left leaning news networks and right leaning Evangelical TV Preachers think, its the Russian Federation now, the Soviet Union fell in 1990 and its never coming back guys and the USA is never going into open war with Russia unless the Democratic party gets everything in 2020 and then , losing all it marbles, starts launching nukes (possible I suppose, but I doubt anyone would bother sending troops after the nuclear holocaust). Now the US could get more involved in either Ukraine or Syria, both however are proxy wars (at best) and neither are particularly popular… Read more »
Yeah no one but the most avid conspiracy theorist types think that the US and Russia will fight in open conflict any time soon. Its just some fun with miniatures. I am going to paint them up to be used for both the U.S. and Russians in other games, but will be fighting as two imgia-nation’s armed forces against each other. Thinking Circle Trigonists for the Russians. And Cascadian’s for the U.S. troops. And Agreed I would love to see some more PLA, out their. Currently Empress is the only company that makes modern PLA Infantry in 28’s. Not really… Read more »
Stretch goal 2 has been achieved. So that means 2 heavy weapon teams for both Russian and US forces.
