New Dropzone Commander Starter Released

By Rob Baer | October 5th, 2013 | Categories: Uncategorized


The eagerly anticipated (and quite possibly ground-breaking) Dropzone Commander Starter has just released this week!

Hot off their big debut last year at GenCon, Hawk Wargames is turning up the heat on their competition with this new all in starter box release!

Hawk Wargames is pleased to announce the brand new Dropzone Commander 2 Player Starter Set!

Containing two sizable starter forces, the full sized 1.1 DZC Core Rulebook, plenty of accessories as well as a starter battlefield with a set of card scenery, the only other things a new player will need are glue and paints! 

It is designed to be one of the most complete wargaming starter sets ever released. 

This boxed set makes a fantastic entry point into the Dropzone Commander universe as well as a great way for existing players to add to the core of their forces.

All the 10mm scale miniatures in this box set are injection moulded in plastic. These crisply moulded models feature extremely fine detail, matching our resin kits in quality.

Be sure to check out the photo gallery below for a visual tour of this amazing box set!  But don’t wait a deal like this is sure to dry up before the holiday season!

Bio: Virginia restless, miniature painter & cat dad. He blames LEGOs for all this, as there was something about those little-colored blocks that started it all. Spikey Bits started with Rob trying to stay motivated to hobby on his backlog of projects and share his knowledge with others during the early blogging era.

He’s played every edition of Warhammer 40k and Warhammer Fantasy since 5th Edition, but Titans of all sizes will always be his favorite! It’s even rumored that his hobby vault rivals the Solemnance Galleries, containing rulebooks filled with lore from editions long past, ancient packs of black-bordered Magic Cards, and minatures made of both pewter and resin.
