Dystopian Wars: September Neuheiten
Der September bringt Neuheiten für Dystopian Wars, mit zwei neuen Flotten Boxen und einer Schwadronen Box.
Archimedes Battlefleet Set – 85,00 GBP
The architects of the Dystopian Age, the Covenant of the Enlightened wield their formidable intellects to sweep aside those ignorant or deluded who stand in the way of Scientific Progress. These masters of technology covet knowledge above all things and believe that it is only they who can steer humanity on a path to enlightenment. With their wondrous war-engines, the Covenant of the Enlightened take every opportunity to demonstrate their technological supremacy. The discoveries that were intended to herald a new era for humanity are instead used to punish those who would misuse them. Only when the Covenant are lauded as the rightful leaders of the Earth, can the world be brought into a new dawn of achievement and prosperity.
A flagship of the Enlightened fleet, Vault ships were conceived as massive floating platforms to deploy their larger engineering and scientific marvels. In this manner, the Archimedes class is usually fitted with either a Callimachus Chrono-Lathe or Diophantus Chaos-Orb, both so intricate and sophisticated in their crafting that like much that is not understood in the Dystopian Age, they are considered magical by the uneducated..Other fleets are centred around the graceful, and superbly equipped Nansen Explorer. Designed for long voyages far from friendly ports, with extensive laboratories, training facilities and cartographic equipment. The Nansen class is in many ways the ultimate expression of Covenant naval ambitions.
Contents:
- 1x Archimedes Vault Ship (can also be built as either The Shneider or Nansen Class ship)
- 2x Advance Cruiser (can be built as either a Newton, Zumeena, Vesalius or Origen Class ship)
- 2x Support Cruiser (can be built as either a Plinius, Tacitus. Claudius or Quintilian Class ship)

Marena Battlefleet Set – 45,00 GBP
The Marena Vitruvian Colossus is a wonder of engineering that inspires ice-cold fear in the hearts of the enemies of the Commonwealth. A towering sight on land and no less impressive at sea, it is as versatile as it is imposing. Its Mag-Rail Axe can be used to make crushing attacks that rain down upon enemy vessels or be launched at range causing a magnetic field that can stick a vessel on its current course. This can be particularly troublesome when combined with the Cryo-Generator that stands as the head of the machine, creating icebergs ahead of the opposing craft that it now may find itself impossible to avoid.
The Boyar Heavy Frigate packs a surprising punch for its size. Woe betide any captain who mistakes these vessels for a standard frigate. Their combined firepower can be surprisingly devastating if one makes a mistake identifying them. The squadron captains have used this to their advantage by meeting their opponents head on, appearing to be less threatening Rurik Frigates to the unaware, only to turn and show their second gun batteries at the last second where they unleash twice the firepower that was expected. This is often the last mistake that their enemies make.
Contents:
- 3 x Marena Vitruvian Colossus (can also be built as Kostroma Vitruvian Colossus)
- 6 x Boyar Heavy Frigate
Please Note:
- Miniatures are supplied unpainted and unassembled.
- Unit Cards are not included and can be found on the Dystopian Wars website.
Scandinavian Frontline Squadrons – 25,00 GBP
The Scandinavians are a group of proud naval nations in the Imperium. Their vessels are fabricated primarily by the Norwegians at Akers Mekaniske Verksted. This large shipyard produces huge numbers of Hoth Heavy Corvettes for use by the Scandinavians throughout the Imperium’s fleets.
Prowling the bitter northern seas, the Scandinavian’s Odin class Reavers are often painted in dark colours by their crews, preferring to strike at dusk or at night.
Built around an exceptional propulsion system, the engineering behind the Gungnir is a closely guarded secret amongst the Scandinavians. Captains have standing orders to scuttle their ships rather than let it fall into enemy hands. The explosive charges throughout the engine room ensure that the advantage will remain with the northern nations.
Long sharp lines distinguish the silhouette of the lethal Jotunn. A prized command by Scandinavian captains, the powerful vessel has advanced targeting systems to enable it to maximise its firepower against its target.
Contents:
- 2x Jotunn Assault Reaver (can alternatively be built as an Odin Reaver or a Gungnir Light Reaver
- 4x Hoth Heavy Corvettes
Please Note:
- Miniatures are supplied unpainted and unassembled.
- Unit Cards are not included and can be found on the Dystopian Wars website.

Ich hatte ja schonmal gesagt, dass die Skandinavier beim neuen Dystopian Wars für mich die besseren Preußen sind. Ich muss mir von denen endlich mal die Starterbox besorgen.
Ansonsten ist die Covenantbox nett. Vor allem der Unterwasser-Insektenroboter gefällt mir – aber etwas mehr Wasserberwegung beim Auftauchen wäre gut gewesen. Die Robotergruppe der Russen überzeugt mich hingegen nicht – warum setzt man sowas auf dem Wasser ein?
Diggi das sind Roboter die auch an Land eingesetzt werden können und jetzt halt nur durchs Wasser watscheln.
Also es wird auch mal landeinheiten wie panzer geben, so wie es jetzt auch schon fliegende Einheiten gibt.
Mit den dicken Robotern kannst wenn du eine Land und Wasser Schlacht spielst halt vom Wasser aufs Land gehen.
Mega geil man
Landeinheiten sind bisher nicht geplant. Woher hast du diese Info?
