Prepare for Urban Warfare: Modiphius Announces Second ‘Fallout: Factions’ Starter Set – ‘Battle for Boston

The tabletop wasteland is expanding! Following the successful launch of the game system, Modiphius Entertainment has announced a brand-new, comprehensive starter set for its fast-paced skirmish wargame, Fallout: Factions: Battle for Boston.

This exciting new box shifts the action from the chaotic, sun-bleached attractions of Nuka-World to the desperate, rubble-strewn streets of the Commonwealth’s capital. In ‘Battle for Boston,’ players will carve out their territory in the ruins of the city, leading a crew of survivors whose stories and capabilities evolve with every fight.

Clash of Ideologies: The Factions

‘Battle for Boston’ pits two of the Commonwealth’s most consequential factions against each other, offering a thrilling clash of military might and clandestine technology:

• The Brotherhood of Steel: Clad in iconic Power Armor, the Brotherhood are the steel-fisted arbiters of technology in the wasteland. Their disciplined forces bring heavy-duty firepower and uncompromising resolve.
• The Institute: The clandestine scientific organization from below the Commonwealth, the Institute employs advanced synth technology and sophisticated weaponry. They represent the secretive, high-tech threat lurking beneath the surface.

This matchup provides a compelling contrast in playstyles—a heavily armored, on-the-ground force versus a highly mobile, synthetic threat—ensuring dynamic and tactically rich games right out of the box.

Everything You Need to Claim the City

The ‘Battle for Boston’ starter set is an all-in-one package designed to get two players into the action immediately. Available for pre-order this November, the box contains a truly impressive haul of components:

With 20 highly detailed plastic miniatures and all the dice, tokens, and terrain necessary, this set is a fantastic way for fans of the video games to take their first steps into tabletop wargaming.

Expanding the Factions Universe: The Crew Folio

Just before the ‘Battle for Boston’ release, Modiphius will further enhance the game with the first Fallout: Factions Crew Folio. This publication is a massive expansion for enthusiasts looking to widen their game:
