Of Oil and Iron - Core Rulebook (PDF)
Across the wastelands of the Smoglands, vast corporations wage endless war over the world's most precious resource: oil.
Pilot towering diesel-powered Rigs into battle, customise your war machines with devastating weapons and equipment, and lead veteran Ironclads through brutal engagements. Do you push your engine to its maximum and risk catastrophic failure?
Of Oil and Iron is a fast-paced tabletop wargame for 2 or more players, featuring tactical mech combat, deep customisation, and a richly developed dieselpunk setting.
