Suspended just above a lake of seething magma, this flame-scorched arena is ground zero for the most brutal sport ever created—Grind! Here 10-ton, ash-spewing, steam-powered robots called steamjacks fight to move a giant, spiked ball into the other team’s goal. Using every weapon in their arsenal, these steamjacks slam, smash, and crush their way through the opposition as they tirelessly slug it out for the title.


The Destructodome is the battlefield for two rival teams of armored metal warriors: the Iron Storm and the Steel Fury. With their eyes on the prize these two teams will stop at nothing to own the blistering field, so pack your playbook with cunning maneuvers, loadout your team with devastating weaponry, and get ready to stake your claim to glory.

Your strategy must be merciless. Your resolve, indestructible. In Grind, only victory can quench the burning fury within these unstoppable machines.


The Grinder is about to drop. Stoke your fire and brace for battle!

Features:
• 10 Highly detailed plastic steamjack figures
• No two games the same—customize your team with over 30 interchangeable weapon arms that provide thousands of devastating combinations
• An enormous 22˝ x 31˝ Destructodome arena game board

Grind is a combat sport game for two players. Played in a gigantic, hazard filled stadium, two opposing teams of war jacks attempt to push a massive metal encrusted Grinder into their opponent's Goal Pit. The first team to score a goal wins the match.

Grind was originally published as a variant of Warmachine whose rules were released in No Quarter Magazine #10. It was later developed into a standalone board game. The rules of the new Grind board game have little in common with the original Grind rules for Warmachine miniatures.

Let us think the unthinkable, let us do the undoable, let us prepare to grapple with the ineffable itself, and see if we may not eff it after all.

Yup they changed it.  The one from the No Quarter was rules to play Grind using your warmachine 'jacks.  This boardgame incarnation is more of a stand alone thing having their own weapons.
