Check Out New Cruisers For The Firestorm Galaxy
December 28, 2013 by brennon
Continuing the list of previews from Spartan Games for their various properties we have a look at some of the models that will be coming for Firestorm Armada, especially with the Cruisers for the various factions...
I'm still not entirely sold on the models outside of the Terran and the Directorate but I think they are growing on me. This is of course all coming in the wake of the new starter set that will get you most definitively started within Firestorm Armada and we looked at that via On The Table before Christmas.
I'd rather Spartan's focus would lie with Uncharted Seas but I don't think that it's been as popular as Firestorm or Dystopian Wars (alas).
Do these Cruisers have you excited?

The third one down is the most aesthetically pleasing, and has something of the Sulaco about it.
Just to clarify- they’re BATTLEcruisers, just a touch larger than your typical cruiser it seems.
I’m glad somebody clarified this because I’ve already seen the new cruisers, and they don’t look like these. I was a little confused for a moment.
I love the Didrenzi aesthetic. Like stereos, spaceships should be massive lumps of metal.
Dawwww, the Medusa Dreadnought’s had a baby!
@somegeezer: Agreed. Nice vicious-looking ship.
That ship looks a bit odd compared to the other Sorylian ships.
Mmmmmm very Star Destroyer-like.
Nice model but (from this angle) I can’t really tell it apart from the other cruiser types.
Not a bad deviation from the original aesthetic but, imho, I would’ve liked it to go vertical.
Can’t wait to see the stats to these ships, and their release dates. 😀
The battle cruisers haven’t been added to the fleet manuals yet, but maybe the Sorylian BC has wings it can deploy? That little extension kind of looks like a launch/recovery bay for smaller craft. I’m eager to see when they update the fleet manual PDFs with these ships.
Same here, mate. It wouldn’t surprise me if the Sorylian BC did have Fighter wings.
I think they all look great. I took 4 ships along to our games club 4 months ago to see if the guys fancied Firestorm Armada. Now everybody has a fleet. Great game.
There ships seem to be getting ever larger!
