Dropfleet Commander: Neue Light Ship Boxen

TTCombat bieten einen neuen Bausatz für kleine Schiffe sowie die bisherigen Dropfleet Modelle zur Vorbestellung an.

Die PHR Light Ships kosten 30£

PHR vessels of light tonnage are highly advanced, resilient killers. Some, like the Ariadne, Castor, and Echo, are focused gun platforms built to excel and survive in a specific tactical position, be that defensive or offensive. Others though are specialists which offer unique and useful capabilities. The Ourania exists solely to assist the fleet in targeting, and the Pollux is a dedicated escort.

Others, such as the Jason and Odysseus blockade runners, offer combat speeds far exceeding most PHR ships to penetrate any defence early in an engagement or to react
with lightning force. PHR cutters are especially fast and can even outrun most Shaltari ships.

This box includes:

• 1 Cutter
• 2 Corvettes
• 2 Lighters
• 1 Monitor
• 2 Destroyers
• 8 Dropfleet Bases

Die Scourge Light Ships ebenso 30£

Scourge ships of light tonnage are some of the fastest combatants in theatre and frequently pack a punch beyond their size. Packs of these slippery killers are rightly feared by experienced opponents, often above the more obvious might of capital ships.

Most excel at a particular brand of lethality but some offer specialist capabilities unique to them, such as the Parasite’s energy siphon or Hiruko’s direct and terrifying boarding capabilities.

This box includes:

• 1 Destroyer
• 1 Monitor
• 1 Cutter
• 2 Lighters
• 2 Corvettes
• 7 Dropfleet Bases

Die Shaltari Light Ships ebenso

Shaltari warfleets thrive on speed, reflexes, and hyper-advanced firepower. Their light tonnage vessels exemplify this and are among their most feared hunter-killers. Ships like the Mercury, Chromium, and Caesium are all focused little executioners. However, classes like the Selenium, Cobalt, and Helium serve to augment and reinforce the Shaltari’s voidgate network, adding priceless tactical utility.

Still others specialise in the most eldritch forms of offense such as the Gallium bio-hazard cutter. Lastly, the dreaded Glass Cloudflier is among the fastest atmospheric-capable ships yet encountered.

This box includes

• 1 Cutter
• 2 Corvettes
• 2 Lighters
• 1 Monitor
• 2 Destroyers
• 8 Dropfleet Bases

Genauso die UCM Light Ships

Within the mighty UCMF, ships of light tonnage contribute the largest numbers and the greatest tactical flexibility. These mainstays come in dozens of classes such as the Rekyavik, a fast and lethal hunter, to the Vienna, a tough defender.

Many offer unique and useful capabilities such as the Lysander which specialises in stealth or the Santiago’s atmospheric strike power. Most are specialist vessels that excel at certain missions while offering the economy and evasiveness that comes with their compact size.

This box includes:

• 2 Cutters
• 2 Corvettes
• 2 Lighters
• 1 Monitor
• 2 Destroyers or 1 Heavy Destroyer
• 9 Dropfleets Bases

Genauso die Resistance Light Ships

The Resistance employs a huge variety of light tonnage vessels, and many offer unique capabilities not seen in capital ships. Some, such as the Aldrin colony ship, are among the oldest vessels still operating anywhere, proving their endurance. The Newton and Galileo monitors were once lynchpins of orbital defence lines, and they still excel in that role.

Their opposites, the Sagittarii and Baleares cutters, are among the fastest ships available to the Resistance admirals and offer impressive first strike capabilities. Also, being improvised forces, merchantmen inherited by the Resistance are often jerry-rigged to carry swarms of remote-operated fire ships.

This box includes

• 1 Cutter
• 2 Corvettes
• 2 Lighters
• 1 Monitor
• 1 Destroyer
• 7 Dropfleet Bases

Eine ebenso teuere Box ist die der Bioficer Light Ships

Bioficer ships of light tonnage are uniquely advanced, efficient killers. Often in the vanguard of Bioficer incursions, these terrors were among the first encountered by the UCM, which was not reassuring. Their corvettes are the largest and most powerful type known, their cutters can be especially aggressive, and their lighters even offer limited drop capability.

Every weapon utilised by their destroyers is formidable, including the most compact example of the Bisector yet encountered, which can neatly slice a frigate in half in one burst.

This box includes:

• 1 Cutter
• 1 Corvette
• 2 Lighters
• 1 Monitor
• 1 Destroyer
• 6 Bases

Neben diesen Bausätzen werden viele weitere wieder angeboten, teils auch als einzelne Gussrahmen, genaueres findet ihr in der Quelle.
