Mongoose Publishing & 2000 AD - OZ Judge for Judge Dredd
10Today we are doing a quick and dirty tabletop-ready paint job on this @MongoosePublishingLtd and @2000ADcomics OZ Judge Miniature for Judge Dredd games.
I plan to use him in the newer Judge Dredd I Am The Law game by @warlordgamesand work out some RPG rules for him to use in the 1980s GW Roleplay game.
Oz is postwar Australia, dominated by the Sydney-Melbourne Conurb megacity. Several other cities and towns exist outside of the conurb. It is part of the Hiroshima Accord.
The centre of the country is the Radback: a vast nuclear desert.
Ozzers are known for being laid back and irreverent, and their society is one of the most accessible and relaxed on Earth. Skysurf legend Chopper took sanctuary there as a result.
The Oz Judges boast they'll "take anyone," even considering foreign citizens or ex-criminals. Cloning and training children are not done. Judges are also extremely laidback and casual. This makes many foreign Judges, including Dredd, see them as undisciplined.
The Oz Judges are a highly efficient force that believes in getting on with their citizens. They will turn a blind eye to certain discretions and don't take some of the more authoritarian tacts of their foreign counterparts. In 2109, Oz Judges could 'arrest Dredd,' so he couldn't interfere with Supersurf: a trick that was convincing enough to fool the Judda. When it comes to combat, Oz Judges have been lethally effective. The early Justice Department had no qualms about deporting and assaulting mutants.
Unlike most megacities, the Oz Chief Judge is elected.
Mega-City One is allied with Oz, and they cooperated to defeat the Judda and later occupy Ciudad Barranquilla. However, the two have clashed over policy: Judge Bruce faced down Dredd and denied him a shot at Chopper, so Dredd attempted to find a way to bust Jugs Mackenzie later in the year, and due to the nuking of Ayers Rock, Sydney-Melbourne kept quiet while tracking down remaining Judda.
The Judges operate out of the Grand Hall of Justice on Hogan Plaz.
Hope you enjoyed it!
