The campaign has successfully attracted $10,810 in pledges, far exceeding its initial goal of $657, with 148 backers and 17 days left until its conclusion on April 26. This project offers backers the opportunity to construct detailed, modular urban environments that reflect the architectural styles of the 20th century.

Sentinel City is designed to enhance tabletop gaming experiences, allowing players to create expansive, multi-level cityscapes for scenarios ranging from zombie outbreaks to superhero showdowns and explorative RPG adventures. It utilizes the Dragon Drops™ tile system, enabling gamers to easily assemble and customize their urban landscapes.

The campaign promises exciting stretch goals as funding milestones are reached. These include additional scatter terrain pieces, new custom building designs, and the Sentinel Obelisk terrain piece. The latter comes with a custom mission for Zombicide and can be integrated into various game settings, enhancing the overall narrative depth.

Key features of Sentinel City include:

  • Dragon Drops™ Tile System: A modular construction system designed for easy assembly and customization, allowing for a wide range of urban environment setups.
  • Highly Detailed Design: Each STL file is designed to maximize playable area and modularity, ensuring a visually appealing and functional gaming setup.
  • Printer-Friendly: The terrain is optimized for FDM 3D printing, requiring no additional supports, which simplifies the printing process.

The narrative backdrop for Sentinel City involves a twist on a post-zombie apocalypse scenario, where an AI named The Sentinel, housed in an obelisk within the city, turns the undead into controlled drones. As the AI seeks to expand its control, the city faces a new threat, prompting a group of heroes to embark on a mission to stop The Sentinel and save the city.

This tabletop game venture brings a remarkable blend of intricate design and creative storytelling to the gaming table.

Operation Maelstrom has already received overwhelming support from the gaming community, amassing $16,165, nearly doubling its initial $8,750 goal. With 236 backers to date and 24 days left in the campaign ending on July 13, 2nd Dynasty’s exciting new project is quickly gaining momentum.

The Kickstarter campaign presents an assortment of 3D printable, highly detailed, OpenLOCK aerospace vehicles, accessories, and a modular outpost, all specifically crafted for 28mm scale tabletop gaming. The 3D models come as digital STL files and can be easily printed in less than a day, offering gamers a personalized and immersive experience.

“Over the last six years, we’ve refined our design process, increasing the fidelity, printability, and quality of our range to incredible standards,” 2nd Dynasty’s team stated in their Kickstarter campaign. This prowess is evident in the eight new aerospace vehicles introduced in Operation Maelstrom.

Key designs include the ASF-09A Firefly and ASF-09S Astrofire, both lightly armed tactical aerospace fighters, the Spidercrab, a utility craft originally designed for salvage and recovery missions, and the Wolfram AH-222 Stinger, an enclosed rotor Attack Helicopter. These vehicles can be customised with swappable weapons systems and landing gear, providing gamers with various strategic possibilities.

In addition to the spacecrafts, the campaign introduces an exciting feature: the Modular Outpost and Modular Control Tower. The Outpost, designed to be prefabricated and rapidly assembled on site, serves as a quick fortification in hostile environments, furthering the immersive gameplay. Accessories to customize the craft or outpost are also included, adding an extra layer of personalisation.

The campaign offers two core pledge levels: ‘Aerospace Vehicles’ and ‘All-In.’ The former offers the eight new aerospace vehicles, while the latter comes with additional campaign-exclusive add-ons. There are also early bird specials and special pricing for the members of 2nd Dynasty’s Tribes.
