Welcome to the Last City.

Hello and welcome to the Last City! 

There are two armies under the command of Mattius Blacke (the city’s ruler and self professed descendant of the Mattblackgod) within the Last City. The Future Guard is made up of ex-mercenary units, deserting enclave forces and the descendants of old military units. As such each squad has a very different look depending on where they got their kit. The Future Guard is less fanatical then the Black Guard but still regard Mattius Blacke as their commander. Their main focus is patrolling the streets, outer perimeter barricades, guarding the outer gates and patrolling the wastelands. Here are a couple of the units of the Future Guard. 

Rustgrad company:


Rustgrad company escorted their people from their township of Rustgrad who decided upon hearing Last City’s transmissions that they wanted to join the city. Two thousand miles of wastelands was hard on both the people and the company with less than a third making it to the city. The people just vanished into the outer city once the dues had been paid. The remaining soldiers had no where to go, so signed up to join the Future Guard. 
Rustgrad company are old Vor Neo Soviets (still carried by Ral Partha Europe).

Wolf Guard:


The Wolf Guard are the descendants of a well equipped military bunkers. They where operating as raiders in the frozen northern wastes when they picked up the Last City’s Radio call to arms. Fired up with a new purpose the broadcasts gave them the Wolf Guard fought and bled across thousands of miles of wastelands to reach the Last City. Unfortunately the force was too fierce to be allowed to patrol the city, even a lawless place like the Last City. Their lack of control made them several loose cannons. Rather than have them as enemies Mattuis Blacke is using them to patrol the wastelands and to come down hard on threats. 


The wolf guard are GW 40K space wolves (space Vikings!).



Christmas Street Bandits:



It’s easy enough to get into the Last City if you know who to bribe. This bunch of bandits have made their base in the ruins of Christmas Street. Lead by Bad Santa the gang run all manner of criminal activities across the city. 



The Christmas Street Bandits were sculpted and cast some years back by Rustbucket over on the Post Apocalyptic Wargames Forum.  Some of the other figures come from Kallistra’s 28mm Sci Fi line. 


Thanks for looking. 


Take care out there and beware Bad Santa.

  1. I like the look of the Rustgrad look very post-apocalypse. The Bandits will surely stick out in a crowd.
