@Gen COn 2019 I interviewed Chris Pond from Warcradle Studios and we discussed Dystopian Wars, Wild West Exodus, Firestorm Armada, and Lost World Exodus.
I look forward to a lot more Wild West Exodus and Dystopian Wars!

The Syndicate Traders League (STL) Patrol Fleet has been designed to be light on its feet and rapidly deployed to deal with any incursion into space controlled by this faction. The highly capable Spur Class Battlecruiser takes up the Tier 1 slot on this fleet, bringing with it plenty of firepower and flexibility. Whilst not the most devastating spaceship in the Firestorm Galaxy, few rival its all-round capability in battle. Two Wraith Gunships add more violence to this Patrol Fleet, and 5 Shadow Class Frigates round things off. The Shadows can be fielded in a maximum of 3 to a Squadron, which allows players to field 1 full strength and 1 slightly under-strength Squadron OR take 2 of the Frigates and attach them to the Spur Class.
DWEX18 The Black Wolf Aerial Battle Group
As his horde of Mercenaries grows, Captain Vladimir Nikinov, or the ‘Black Wolf’ as he is infamously known, has now complemented his deadly naval forces with a devastating Aerial Battle Group. At the heart of this new force is the massive and most intimidating Retribution Sky Fortress, one of the most impressive flying models in the world of Dystopian Wars. The Retribution is designed to act as a mobile command centre for Nikinov should be choose to leave his famed Death Bringer Submarine, and as such the Retribution hammers enemy models with withering fore weapons, brutal rocket batteries and crushing bomb attacks. In support of this beast are three Chimera medium airships, also armed with fore guns and rocket batteries, and supporting these are five small Wrath airships, armed with fore and aft turrets. The arrival of aerial mobility to Black Wolf forces makes them an even more dangerous foe to fight off, both as a standalone force or as mercenaries hired by the various nations of the Dystopian World. Only one fleet is spurned by Nikinov, that of the Russian Coalition, the Admirals of which have orders to kill the Black Wolf on sight. Contains: 1 Retribution Class Sky Fortress, 3 Chimera Class Medium Airships, 5 Wraith Class Airships, 16 SAS Tokens, 3 Movement Trays & Micro Dice, 1 TAC Deck and Tokens & Templates. Models supplied unpainted and unassembled.
Well our friends at Spartan Games have another action packed us gamers. Do they sleep over there? How many of Santa’s elves did they steal?
DWAL05 Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth Zamiec Class Sky Fortress
The armed forces of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth are known for their unparalleled battle skill and courage. Long years of warfare have honed the Commonwealth Hussar Legions into veteran fighting units capable of facing off against all an enemy can throw at them. The Zamiec Class Sky Fortress’ breathtaking stature makes it instantly iconic in the world of Dystopian Wars.

“Let the games begin…”
Well if that isn’t enough here are the pics
The Boys from Spartan Games are at again here are their latest releases.
DWCB02 Campaign Book: Storm of Steel
Invasion and retaliation shake the great powers and their allies as the World War explodes in Northern Europe! Storm of Steel is the second Campaign Book for Dystopian Wars and within its pages we massively develop the history of the world, play out military campaigns, expand on the great commanders of the period, offer exciting scenarios and provide new game rules to enhance the current rule set. It is a must for all military commanders.
Russian Coalition Borodino Class Battleship (1)
Bristling with turrets and broadsides, the Borodino Class Battleship is a truly fearsome vessel. Its ablative armour plating forms a hulking tiered formation that gives this ship an intimidating profile. With the ability to absorb withering hails of fire, this industrial nightmare will forever haunt the ambitions of anyone who dares cross the path of the Russian Coalition.
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.
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.
Olympic Class Troop Transport The Olympic Liner is one of the largest passenger ships ever created. Built at the Proctor & Mercer Shipyards in Middlesbrough, these impressive vessels have carried people over the seas in style since 1861. A main selling point is the advanced technological design, and claimed robustness of the ship’s hull. However, the outbreak of world war saw many of the Olympic Liners refitted to fulfil the role of a troop carrier. With its pioneering keel design, the Olympic Class Troop Transport cuts through the water at high speed, allowing it to efficiently deliver thousands of troops to war zones around the globe.
I do believe this will be my first Dystopian Wars Model. I wonder if the Prussians will find the Bismarck?
