Campaign Book: Hurricane Season

 

The first Campaign Book for Dystopian Wars is a 128 full colour hardback book that details the bitter struggle between the Federated States of America and the Empire of the Blazing Sun. With the involvement of the Kingdom of Britannia, Prussian Empire and Covenant of Antarctica, this is a titanic struggle! Hurricane Season is fully-illustrated and provides a series of exciting scenarios for you to play, detailing major actions in the campaign. The Covenant of Antarctica rules and Stats are included along with new rules for National Fleet Commodores, Amphibious Landings, Deployment Orders and more.

 


Large Landing Barge (1 model per blister)

Amphibious warfare comes to Dystopian Wars! To help you link your naval and armoured fleets, we bring you the Large Landing Barge, capable of transporting any unit from an Armoured Battle Group boxed set across the sea.

 

Landing Platforms and Small Landing Barge Set (9 models per blister)

Moving from island to island can be a dangerous process. However, Landing Platforms add further amphibious capability to your armoured units and another exciting element to your gaming table. Small Landing Barges are perfect for assaulting secondary targets.

Tabletop Quality a Miniatures Painting Guide.

 Gaming News, Miniatures  Comments Off on Tabletop Quality a Miniatures Painting Guide.

Have you ever heard the phrase table top quality?  Did you wonder what it means?   Well, if you know or think you know what table top quality means read on and I will share with you my findings.  We will attempt to do this by not siding with any one view (I will still pick on stereotypes though), but instead by defining it based off reading articles, and forum posts from Dakka Dakka, Bolter and Chainsword, Cmon, and game manufacturer’s websites.

 

When I first decided to write this article I thought I had a good understanding of the phrase.  I was wrong.  I discovered that a  part of the “painting” community is loud enough that that they are heard.  Not only are these people loud they are rude.  You will find comments like”table top quality is just another way of saying ” , and “tabletop quality is just an excuse for you not wanting to play me”.  So if you are a new player or painter who plays you are forewarned that you will be up against this kind of mentality.  I suggest you steer clear of these people as best you can while you are learning to paint.
