Aerocity & Overpass


Hello and welcome back. 


Aerocity is a district of the Last City. It was once the airport that served the city long ago. Today it’s own township within the Last City. Manned by a guard wearing a mix of kit and equipment outsiders are treated with mistrust. Inside the perimeter of old scrap walls lies many surviving old hangars, terminals and store buildings. What was once old aircraft pads and run ways there is a sprawling township of shacks. The grass areas are too poisoned to provide healthy food. They are instead used to grow fuel crops. This is refined and sold across the last city. Aerocity also provides scrap materials and parts to the other factions in the Last City. 

Aerocity is an older MBW faction which has been tweaked and moved into the city. 



This guy is a new recruit to the Aerocity guards. He is a early Rogue Trader era Imperial Army figure (even before they called them Guards). As he fits the style I have adopted for Aerocity I decided that’s where he belongs. The figure was a eBay find I intended to clean and repaint, but I found I liked the paint job when he arrived. So all I did was make his base fit the other figures in this force.


As we are looking at districts of the Last City, let me introduce you to Overpass. Overpass is as the name suggests built on what remains of an old city Overpass. It is a selection of ramshackle huts protected by two junk walls at the ground level end of the Overpass. The township has a population of around 120. They are protected by the Overpass Lords, a small band of seasoned warriors wearing urban camouflage and sporting a mixture of equipment. Stories say that the Overpass Lords were once a band of Stalkers. The denizens of Overpass make their living from a mixture of scavenging and working in factories or foundries of other Last City factions. 




These are old Warzone figures. They will be joined by my old Monolith Stalker faction figures which should make them strong enough to keep Overpass safe from Last City ne’er do wells. 


Thanks for looking, take care out there.
