Love everything about this game, the scale, the models, the epicness. Will definitely be picking this up.
Recently picked a couple of starter sets up and the cityscape, and a couple of hours later had a full 6×4 board of scenery and two built forces to play with. For a lazy git like me it’s perfect. Can’t believe how good it looks with such minimal effort. It’s a similar story with the painting as well.
I have to say this is the most desirable prize I’ve seen on BOW!
PHR has to be the poster faction for DZC!
Stunning models!!! I think I’ll sale my Vampire Counts to buy these 🙂
I think that the hades model is one of the best minatures I have seen.
Such a beautiful game. Really want to starter box (does anyone know when they are going to announce the winner of that btw?). Can’t wait to get man little mits on to this :). Good work everyone at Hawk Wargames.
with the starter set and new faction this game is starting to look very good.
man i love drop zone commander, i went on a crazy buying spree last week end and bought up almost every model i could, i am the soul reason why its now hard to find drop zone commander in the area hehe… i cant wait to see what else they come out with, i hope they’ll be full 18 wheelers with giant home made cannons on it, trains or even poorly made old planes as their fighters, i’ll be watching closely 🙂
Perhaps I’ve missed it but have the winners of the Nam Week been announced?
seeing those resistance minis makes me want to make some ‘the last of us’ inspired terrain
Still can’t get over that tank i love it.
I love the game. I haven´t played it :(- yet. I still have to wait, until the starter comes out. I have printed out and build every building so far the moment they went on the website, I even made bigger and smaller buildings: http://i96.photobucket.com/albums/l188/MadXIII/Tabletop/Infinity/Gelaende/Dropship%20Commander/6F67653F-C26C-4365-A5D8-9F3CFEE71315-766-00000257705AD84B.jpg http://i96.photobucket.com/albums/l188/MadXIII/Tabletop/Infinity/Gelaende/Dropship%20Commander/801DE794-028D-4A9A-ADFB-1C5724EB1400-766-0000025778D6398A.jpg I planed to save some money for the big army, but the money was´t there- with the starter box- I finally have a way to get into the game. Not with my first choice of army (that would be the Shaltai), but the second best choice for me and an army for my flatmate.… Read more »
apparently links won´t do it- I guess I have to use the terrainarama the first time.
I´m sorry for the spamming, it was not intended.
this is a game that I could really see myself getting into
You did it! You got me to sign up for backstage. And it’s definitely worth it.
I was thinking of going with Scourge. I have an interesting not-smudgy-and-horrible paintscheme in mind for them.
But the Resistance looks and sounds very appealing.
Same here, it drew me into a backstage pass. DZC is a gem of a game.
I have a growing army of Scourge, you won´t be disappointed with collecting them! Every time I look at the models I´m amazed at how well done they are made. Even with my simple painting skills, they look fantastic.
Me too! You gotta love the recent DZC coverage and it has convinced me to take the plunge and get backstage membership.
Yea the resistance is looking like a faction i can get behind I’m a sucker for anything flame thrower-ish,
would love to get my hands on the PHR force. such beautiful mini’s!!!!
Just love this guys can’t wait for my starter box set to arrive
It’s so great to hear the reasons behind how the different armies have been designed, how their tactics work and just the thoughts that has gone into the background.
I am seriously contemplating making this another game I collect, although my favourite faction aesthetically is the Shaltari, the PHR are definitely a close second.
As an aside, when will the winners for Nam Week be announced?
I have a liking for the “underdogs” and the Human Resistance sound just like that kind of army. They also lend themselves to “gaming in the gaps” and the creation of a personalised army with its own little history within the main background.
Really nice show, thanks for focusing on the wonderful game that is DCZ this weekender.
I hope that a DZC week will follow on BoW, perhaps coinciding with the release of the 2-player starter set. Watching a demo game was what got me hooked not to long ago. The Resistance has the potential to be a second army, loving Dave´s ideas. Especially the Leviathan – I want´s itsssssss!
It is truly a wonderful time to be a wargamer!
looking forward to this being on sale
its so nice to find a games company that is willing to be open about their future plans. Also future looking A10 Warthogs and helicopters in a certain vidio game style would be so cool.
awesome game, really looking forward to the resistance.
