Why, hello there, youngster!
From the veteran designer James Hewitt (Necromunda, Adeptus Titanicus, Hellboy -The Board Game) comes Fallout: Factions, a brand new PvP table-top skirmish game where crews of raiders battle it out for control of Nuka-World.
Using standard ten-sided dice and featuring a streamlined resolution system, Fallout: Factions is great for both beginners interested in exploring miniature wargaming and veterans looking for fast games full of tactical nuance. Build your crew, select your ploys, and watch your team grow into a legendary fighting force across multiple fast and furious PvP matches.
Your crew’s story doesn’t end when the match is over. All of the games you play in Fallout: Factions are linked together in an ongoing narrative arc, following your team’s highs and lows in their war to become the Top Dogs!
Are your crew going to be climbing to the top of the corpse pile, or will they be the ones being climbed over?
Welcome to Nuka-World!

SEE IT IN ACTION
WHAT’S YOUR RAIDER FLAVOUR?
A short drive west of Boston, Massachusetts, sits the wreckage of what used to be America’s favorite destination spot. Before the bombs fell, Nuka-World was a sprawling amusement park, a wonderland of rides and attractions themed around the nation’s favorite soda. Now, it’s a hotly contested Wasteland; its park locations carved up between three factions of Wasteland Raiders:
THE OPERATORS
The Operators focus on profit, stealth, and efficiency. They appreciate the importance of looking sharp, and they make extensive use of flashy,
high-tech weapons.
THE PACK
The Pack model themselves after the animal kingdom, valuing strength, loyalty, and ferocity above all else. Their colorful outfits and animal masks make them stand out amid the Wasteland's dust.
THE DISCIPLES
The Disciples revel in violence, bloodshed, and torture. They clad themselves in dark leathers and metal armor, loving few things as much as the sound of serrated steel separating sinew and skin.
O BROTHER(HOOD OF STEEL),
WHERE ART THOU?
The question we get asked most is whether new factions will be coming for Fallout: Factions.
Our answer? Absolutely!
We intend to support Fallout: Factions for years to come, and have exciting plans for introducing fan-favorite factions and locations. In the meantime, we’ve put together what we’re dubbing ‘Get You By’ lists; temporary crew lists allowing you to get your Brotherhood of Steel, Super Mutant, Wasteland Raider, and Survivor miniatures to the table straight away! You can see the ‘Get You By’ by clicking the button below!

In Fallout: Factions, our newest head-to-head miniatures skirmish game, you pick a faction, build a rag-tag crew of miscreants, and battle your way to the top of the pile!
The game has been designed from the ground up to facilitate fast, accessible, and action-packed gameplay.
Games take place across a compact 24"x36" battlefield and last around 40 minutes once both players know the rules.
The core mechanics are simple and intuitive, focusing on cinematic action and cunning strategies. What’s more, all of the games you play are linked together, forming an ongoing narrative.
As your crew expands, learns new tricks, and takes over an ever-increasing slice of the park, you’ll want to keep coming back for more! -
Wasteland Warfare was always intended to be a detailed, granular tabletop experience that mirrors the in-depth narrative gameplay of the Fallout video games. You create a group of wanderers in the Wasteland, outfitting each one with a unique set of equipment and perks, and you use a variety of different play styles and scenarios to create immersive tabletop PvE, solo, and co-op experiences.
With Factions, we wanted to create a game that’s still unquestionably Fallout , but which gives a tighter, more focused PvP experience. It has a whole new game engine that uses simple mechanics and minimal components, ensuring it is quick to learn and quick to play, without sacrificing any strategic heft.
-
Fallout: Factions is designed to be played between two players and does not include AI or Player vs Environment modes at launch. There are currently no plans to implement them.
We will be continuing to support Fallout: Wasteland Warfare, which has extensive rules and mechanics for Co-op and solo play. -
