Here at Spikey Bits, we keep trying to come up with more fun and, what we hope are, exciting ways for you to save on your gaming needs.
This game may be one of the best, most affordable games out there, not just for the models but for your terrain, and accessories as well!
The Year is 2670
You join this universe in the earliest days of mankind’s ambitious invasion to retake the central planets from the Scourge. Bloody battles and epic conflict awaits as races, generals and individuals take sides. Whether you’re fighting for humanity, the Scourge or for your own ends is up to you!
Dropzone Commander (DzC) is a 10mm scale sci-fi tabletop wargame, devised for mass battles between two or more players. The rules are designed for efficient and dynamic games which can be played on a standard 4’x4′ table (although larger tables work well also!).
The rules are based on an alternate activation system, which keeps the action constant and involving. They are also scalable, and will cater for tactical skirmishes as well as titanic clashes of metal and firepower. This is accomplished whilst never sacrificing the character of individual units, and indeed all the colour and eventfulness of battle.
A vast array of war machines will be at your disposal, but this does not belittle the importance of the humble infantryman.
The game is built around the concept of rapid deployment and redeployment of your forces by airborne dropships, exemplifying the pace of combat on the battlefields of the future. This makes for a tactical and fast paced experience, where quick thinking and strokes of genius often bring victory.
Plenty of additional information about the rules is available in both the FAQ and downloads sections of this site. We plan on adding much more content to these sections over the coming weeks!
