The Tier 3 set adds a stationary weapon back with a HMG and a ATGM launcher, as well as a spotter to assist them. This set has already been distributed to all those who were members during December.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The January release will be accompanying these figures, bringing some Russian vehicles to the table. Further details coming soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Urban Scatter Gaming Celebrates Test Print Day!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1440\" src=\"https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/D749E0AA-970A-48CA-ACE7-BE4022CFC298.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-27996\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/D749E0AA-970A-48CA-ACE7-BE4022CFC298.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/D749E0AA-970A-48CA-ACE7-BE4022CFC298-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/D749E0AA-970A-48CA-ACE7-BE4022CFC298-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/D749E0AA-970A-48CA-ACE7-BE4022CFC298-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/D749E0AA-970A-48CA-ACE7-BE4022CFC298-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, it was a glorious day for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.patreon.com\/UrbanScatterGaming\">Urban Scatter Gaming<\/a> patrons on the weekend &#8211; Test Print Day! As you can see above, the various parts for this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.patreon.com\/posts\/quick-update-96932082\">month&#8217;s substation\/garage release have gone through the testing process<\/a> and come out looking pretty good. There is going to be a good mix of parts for all things industrial &#8211; for example, the frame you can see is actually made of much smaller pieces, letting you build it up as a modular assets, meaning you can use the same bits for a small rural substation or something giant in the inner city. Having passed the test prints, we can expect the full release of these items soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1012\" height=\"1099\" src=\"https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Screenshot-2023-09-03-193707.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-27288\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Screenshot-2023-09-03-193707.png 1012w, https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Screenshot-2023-09-03-193707-138x150.png 138w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1012px) 100vw, 1012px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to support my work on gathering the news together,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.patreon.com\/ChargeBlog\">my Patreon<\/a>&nbsp;is the best way to keep things going.
