Runner of the Wastelands

You are a "Runner", a traveler who faces
the dangers of the wastelands as a courier
between the few cities that still stand.
Make people trust you, so that when
someone has to send a package,
you're the runner they think of.

"Runner of the Wastelands" is a solo-journaling resource-management TTRPG where you explore the wastes using a hex-map and miniatures in a hex-combat-grid to resolve encounters.

Every time you venture into the wastes to fulfill one of your courier jobs, creatures and enemies can stand between you and your destination. Run away, or face them, that's your choice.

A star-faced wolf, one of the creatures you might encounter in the wastelands.

An evolving game:

I want "Runner of the wastelands" to be an ongoing project, and make more art, rules, and tools for it, so that you and I can have the most fun with it. So for every 20 bucks that this game makes, or for every 20 reviews/comments (about your experience with the game), I will do one of the following:

• A new landscape drawing for one of the six possible "types" of terrains on the hex-map to use as a background for your minis.
• Small printable "terrain pieces", for one of the twelve "peculiarities" of the terrain on the hex-map (such as crystal, ruins, plants, etc). 
• Rules for expanding the game beyond 10 towns.
  
• Spark tables for towns.
• Spark tables for the wastes.
• Factions and rules for them.
• Additional tools for solo playing.
