The game has been in full swing since the revamp came out at the beginning of 2021. If you are looking for the starter set, you should go check that post out and get everything you need to play in one buy. Today though, we’re going to take a look at some of the new sets that will expand your forces. if you want to field a new force the Descartes Battlefield set is for you!
These are due out at the end of July, but are on pre-order now! Let’s take a closer look at the sets.
Descartes Battlefleet Set: £40.00
The armed forces of the Covenant of the Enlightened are entirely composed of paid volunteers and are therefore few in number. The technological superiority of the Enlightened makes up for this with automation. Many of the smaller vessels in the Enlightened fleet are virtually crewless automatons loaded with sophisticated routines and reactions. This significantly cuts down on the crew needed for the navy as a whole. The Germain Class Zebek and Merian Class Frigate are two such vessels that are seen in squadrons alongside the larger vessels.
The Descartes Battlefleet Set kit builds eight multi-part plastic and resin miniatures;
- 1x Descartes Class Battleship
- 2x Copernicus Class Cruisers
- Each Cruiser can alternatively be built as either Antarctica, Chatelet, Lovelace, Stiletto or Ulysses Class
- 6x Merian Class Frigates
- Each Frigate can alternatively be built as Germain Class
- 2x SRS Tokens
- 2x Bases
- 1x Whale & Iceberg Token Sheet
The Constitution Battlefleet Set: £40.00
Farragut Frigates are also a common addition to any Union fleet. These small but maneuverable vessels are able to make fast raids against enemy squadrons or in even greater numbers, larger vessels such as Battleships.
The Constitution Battlefleet Set kit builds nine multi-part plastic and resin miniatures;
- 1x Constitution Class Battleship
- 2x Yorktown Class Cruisers
- Each Cruiser can alternatively be built as either Intrepid, Lexington or Reliant Class
- 4x Farragut Class Frigates
- 2x Akron Observation Rotor
Tempelhof Battlefleet: £40.00
Added to this array of impressive naval firepower are the Imperium Destroyers. Vessels of the Sigimer Class are longer, more heavily armored and boast additional firepower over Frigates. Toten Class, on the other hand, is heavier still and is equipped with two Sturmklaue cannons. Many an Admiral has underestimated these smaller vessels to their cost.
The Tempelhof Battlefleet Set kit builds seven multi-part plastic and resin miniatures and 4 SRS Tokens;
- 1x Tempelhof Class Fleet Carrier
- 2x Reiter Class Cruisers
- Each Cruiser can alternatively be built as either Konrad or Volsung Class
- 4x Sigimer Class Destroyers
- Each Destroyer can alternatively be built as Toten Class
- 2x Blitzen Bomber special SRS Token
- 2x Imperium SRS token
- 4x Base
That does it for this one! Just a great way to add to your growing forces.
