Atomic Tank: The Robot Wars

Atomic Tank—The Robot Wars is a 10mm retro-futuristic tabletop wargame that features cinematic, mass-combat sci-fi warfare in the year 2315.

Core Theme and Setting

The Retroverse: Set in a 1950s-inspired “Atomic Age” vision of the future (reminiscent of classic space-opera serials like Flash Gordon or Buck Rogers).

The Factions: Pits the heroic Galacteers (retro space explorers with ray guns and jetpacks) against the unstoppable Robot Legion (an automated mechanical army led by a robot queen).

Gameplay and Mechanics

Scale and Miniatures: Uses 10mm scale miniatures. Infantry and delicate models are cast in lead-free pewter, while larger warbots, walkers, and giant atomic tanks are high-resolution resin prints.

Activation System: Utilizes an alternate activation and order-dice pool mechanic that keeps both players engaged throughout the round.

Scenario-Driven: The core rulebook includes a streamlined 40-page ruleset, tokens, dice, and multiple scenario missions (such as Annihilation, Breakthrough, and Factory Destruction) designed for fast-paced 2-to-3-hour matches.
