What is Turnip28?
Rooting for the Absurd
Turnip28 is a whimsical tabletop game created by Max FitzGerald. It combines elements of Napoleonic-era military aesthetics with a grim, decayed, and overgrown theme, where armies are covered in mud, moss, and turnips. Players build and paint unique, grotesque miniatures using kitbashing techniques, blending historical figures with absurd and surreal elements like roots and plant growth.
The gameplay emphasises fun and creativity over strict competition, making it popular with hobbyists who enjoy customising miniatures and inventing bizarre backstories for their units. The setting is intentionally vague, allowing players to bring their own ideas to the table. The community-driven aspect of Turnip28 has helped it grow, with many fans sharing their creations online and adding to the unique culture surrounding the game.
