Trash Mountain

Hark, fellow Trash Enthusiasts- erm... that is...28mm Wargame lovers...

Our game begins as a story often does- out of a place of desperation. A down-and-out individual seated at the heels of a decrepit social construct risks everything for gain and glory. But unlike those stories, whose heroes come of age in sweeping, interminable arcs, our own hero doesn’t weave an enviable narrative.

In Trash Mountain, we follow the exploits of Serfers, peasant folk who dwell within the stinking hovels and jagged, littered bluffs of an endless sea of waste, and whose impoverished state drives them to compete in perilous races. Sponsored by the ruling class residing at the top of the heap, these races promise substantial reward to those Serfs who sacrifice their wellbeing to become Serfers, fighting tooth-and-nail to scratch out a living on the bitter, reeking slopes.

What separates a Serfer from the average Serf, you ask? Simple. A Serfer takes a common looking shield- such as you might envision a knight, or any other adventurer might carry on a single arm- and modifies it into something called a Board. This Board allows the Serfer to ride over the slopes at great speed, albeit at even greater risk. Serfers often form cohorts referred to as Crews, who band together in order to use strength by numbers. No matter who rises to the top, all remain subservient to the garbage ever piling.

Another race is about to start. Time to bust a move.

What exactly is a Trash Mountain, you ask? It's a place for the scratch builders to flex their muscles and create the garbage panorama of their dreams! Take any 2x2 or larger gaming space and fill it up with your creations! As long as it's trash, a Serfer will Serf on it. 

Go on, be a Lookie Loo! Nothing but garbage awaits you.
