This is my attempt to translate the chess-like game featured in George R. R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire novels (Game of Thrones). Being a huge fan of the man and his work, I wanted to try and give his game the best translation I could. Working with my good friend (and studious Martin scholar) Nate Stevens, I adapted the game to include everything mentioned in the book into a rules set I found believable for a game made during the emulated time period, while also keeping the games in mind that Martin has mentioned as inspiration during interviews. So, Let me know if you get to printing/playing it, and if you have any suggestions for rules adjustments, variants, etc, post in the comments below and let's get a dialogue going. The rules PDF is with the other downloads, and its a light read (2 pages). Game on!

Needs some string....

Dedicated to Adeline.

A stone monument to Thor that I designed based on images of artifacts from the Viking age. Makes great tabletop RPG or wargame terrain.

A Viking Age-styled wooden longhouse! Its modeled in 15mm scale, mostly so I can use it with my Pocket-Tactics miniatures. The inside floor is patterned in a 15mm grid map for increment-based RPG or miniature game play. Had some issues with curling, though I'm looking into ways to reduce that. Also have some furnishings in the works.

"Clouds of dark smoke hung over the freshly blasted mine entrance. In the stygian darkness beyond. A faint glimmer could be seen, hovering motes without tell of depth. Soon a flutter could be heard, soft at first, then rising to a cacophonous flurry, the once-dim motes now given form. They poured from that empty place, taking the worst aspects of bats, jellyfish, and ticks, their luminescent skin betraying the pulsing shapes of their strange, internal biology. Screeching in a sound born beyond the stars, they tore, stung, and bit until there were none left to give witness save the phantom eyes of the automated surveillance footage."

Felt like trying my hand at some random alien creatures and was pretty happy with these guys. They're designed in 15mm scale, though they could really be used with any range.

As famine struck the dark forests of Jotunheim, Wolf-Eater scaled the impossible cliffs of Ymir's Brow, descending into the lowlands of Midgard and sating his hunger on the tribes of men.

I wanted to make a proper Norse dragon. I really liked the idea of an antlered forest wyrm with vestigial wings adapted to climbing giant trees. Currently using this guy as the center of an RPG storyline. He's scaled to 15mm (making him rather massive) so he can be used with my Pocket-Tactics models, but he'd make a good dragon for heroic scale (25-30mm gaming) as well.

Part of a Zyntari Combine prospecting team, Xaar and his brethren came to Nexus City to appraise the hub world for invasion. As Xaar grew fond of the strange place and its colorful inhabitants, he felt himself grow apart from the imperial creed and decided to stay, opening his own robotics repair shop and ferrying paying customers through the local Omnisphere (a skill he had learned as part of his duties to the Combine).

Xaar is modeled in 54mm scale and is an RPG character created by Thingiverse user knutsford and modeled by myself.

Born on an alternate Earth where the Confederacy won the American Civil War, Henry led a violent revolt, freeing his fellow slaves from the Applewhite plantation. Chased by the vengeful Abner Applewhite, the last of his clan, Henry and Abner were possessed by minions of the Faceless One and drawn into another reality.

Over one-hundred and fifty years later, Henry was freed from his demonic possession by the mysterious Doctor Solomon. Since that time, Henry has adapted to life in the Multiverse. Making a name for himself as hired muscle in the Nexus City underworld, Henry was soon hired on by the Lost Agency and, with that advancement, his reputation grew beyond the bounds of the seedy hub-world.

Slayer of monsters, savior of the downtrodden, and agent of justice, Henry is known across the Multiverse for his deeds. Since the disbanding of the Lost Agency, he has retreated to the solace of his farm in the refugee colony, Reverie. However, having made powerful enemies during his many adventures, its only a matter of time before they find him....

Henry is modeled in 54mm scale and is an RPG character created by Nathan Stephens and modeled by myself.

Built and gifted to Captain Baker by the Servitors of Nexus City, TH1-NK3R served as the tactician for Baker's Dozen for many years. After the remaining Dozen disbanded and went their separate ways, TH1-NK3R returned to Nexus City and, after a time serving the collective, was gifted to the refugee colony, Reverie.

TH1-NK3R is modeled in 54mm scale. He's an RPG character created by Dan Pettit and modeled by myself.

Formerly a blaster for a prolific dwarven mining company, Ralph Siggurdson eschewed his clan code and went rogue, joining the trans-universal mercenary unit known as Baker's Dozen. Since the surviving Dozen retired and went their separate ways, Ralph was last seen relic hunting in Tunnelworld, the vast, labyrinthine complex sprawling beneath the waste-world of Eden 2.

Daughter of the late, famed mercenary, Captain Hedrick Baker, Ymelda Baker seeks to follow in her father's footsteps and reassemble the "Baker's Dozen." Inheriting her father's wits (along with his sidearms and magic coin), she ventures into the Multiverse, seeking out veterans of the Dozen, and replacing those who have passed with worthy individuals she meets along the way.

54mm-scale model of an NPC from my gaming group's current RPG storyline.

Formerly a member of the trans-universal mercenary company, Baker's Dozen, Emer soon after became the star of the hit Teledrome-produced reality series, "Pig Tracker." Emer's whereabouts have been unknown since the Teledrome's destruction at the hands of the Lost Agency, though some believe him to be the true identity of the "Desert Phantom," a mysterious gas-masked survivor who haunts the poisoned wastes of Eden 2.

Emer is 54mm scale and is on a 40mm base. He's an RPG character played and created by Thingiverse user Jeremy8077 thingiverse.com/Jeremy8077/designs and was modeled and printed by myself.

One excellent (and common) alternate use for Pocket-Tactics figures is as miniatures for RPG encounters. Because of this, I've started designing some modular map tiles fitted to their scale.

Each square is 15mm x 15mm, and represents a standard "increment" of space in your game world (roughly 5 feet or 1.5 meters). This makes them perfect for D&D and similar games systems, and will work great with any 15mm scale miniature ranges. (Khurasan, Splintered Light, etc... look them up, they're fantastic!)

For the full Pocket-Tactics range of models, here's the collected sets, single units and, of course, Pocket-Dungeons (which has some classically RPG-themed models):

They print really easy and with plenty of space on a Replicator platform,so print a ton of these plates and build an epic dungeon! Check back for expansions and different tile types... plenty more to come!

Resolving an assault in Pocket-Tactics with a character that uses a kicker? Toss a kicker token down with your dice. Totally optional, but it can help you visualize your total a little better.

Context is a simple to learn, easy to play word game where players use letter tiles to make words they think will be found within a randomly chosen encyclopedia article. The game works best if you have access to Wikipedia or similar online encyclopedias. Specific Wikis are great if you and your party want to play within a certain subject of expertise like Marvel Superheroes or Dinosaurs.

Note: So, this is the same High King faction as found in the core set, though these guys needed an update. I'll leave the original models up there, though feel free to sub these guys in...or better yet, battle them for supremacy!

Still working on this set, but its a ways out and I thought this would be a cool model to share. This guy will be at the center of the force, though there will be the usual cadre of support models as well as an unorthodox approach to a Pocket-Tactics core set.

The Olimyoo are large, four-armed humanoids with tough gray-green skin and pachyderm-like features. Olimyoo in Nexus City are likely escapees from Tartaran enslavement.

Peaceful creatures by nature, the Olimyoo have the distinction of coming from the planet, Pakinare, a world in a distant universe with a 78% compatibility with Earth biology. It is widely assumed that the Children of Tartarus found this world by means of magical scrying while searching for a new home after their separation from the Galactic Neo-Roman Empire.

The language of the Olimyoo is best described as being musical in nature. Olimyoo are incapable of speaking other languages, though may learn and comprehend them.

Olimyoo concepts by Jeremy Larsen, model designed in Sculptris and TinkerCAD.

This is my entry for the Develop3D robot design contest. I've been wanting to make a modular robot for some time now, and I figured this was as good a way as any to start!

With the pins, he should snap together without any glue, and the ball joints should function a bit.

So, here's the link to my TinkerCAD model: tinkercad.com/things/187wSn06BB4-modulo I'd like to put it out there for all of you Thingiversers to add parts for Modulo should the inspiration take you. Post up anything you make and if it fits him, I'll add the stl to his downloads. Drill arm? Jet pack? Crawler legs? More poseable bits? Any takers?

This version is fully compatible for play with all of our other sets, though is a lot easier on your time/printer (the whole set can be printed in just under four hours)

All of the pieces were designed in TinkerCAD and, as with all of our games, the Non-Derivitive CC is just there for the rules sheet, so feel free to go in and futz around with the components!

You may recognize these guys from Pocket-Dungeons. Check out their original game here thingiverse.com/thing:59110 and be on the lookout for more crossovers in the near future....

Introducing Pocket-Dungeons! A modular, competitive dungeon-crawl for two to six players.

With modular, tile-based board design and randomized events, no two games will be alike. Dynamic, tactical game play allows for quick resolution as players control treasure-hungry dungeon delvers vying for gold and glory.

This game has been designed with Pocket-Tactics in mind and the pieces and rules sets will be able to cross over and expand the depth of each range.
