Hey all, this is not an RPG, but I thought your mechs would fit right in.

Iron Buckets is a miniature-agnostic skirmish game about barely-functioning mechs battling for the crowd. Buckets are massive industrial titans originally built for deep-space harvesting and conquest. Though they once dominated the stars, most were left to rot on forgotten battlefields after the Metallium Carta banned their deployment in war. Now, they have been salvaged and reactivated for far more profitable business than war: entertainment.

Games are played with 3 mechs per player and use a dice-based activation system. It is designed to be quick to learn and play.

If you would like to help with playtesting and provide feedback, I would be very grateful! Any feedback is welcome.

The rules are available on Itch: https://fromniki.itch.io/iron-buckets

Thank you!

Edit: Just noticed the typo in the cover! It’s already fixed in the actual rulebook linked above.
