Grab The Experimental Rules For Four New Dropzone Vehicles!
March 15, 2014 by brennon
Hawk Wargames have revealed the experimental rules for for of the new Dropzone Commander vehicles that you encountered over the advent period this past Christmas. See what you think of the rules for the Ravager, Fireblade, Helios and Birdeater...
Take them to the tabletop and get playing to see what you think of these hulking new pieces of kit. I'm excited to see how the Helios and Fireblade play mainly because those are the two coolest looking vehicles from the bunch.
I'm sure both Shaltari and Scourge players are also going to be loving the Ravager and Birdeater though so make sure to post below with what you think of their rules.
Which is your favourite?

Flame thrower all the way for me, could be just what I need to beat Natalie’s invulnerable scourge infantry
I wish they would make more of the minis in plastic
why? resin is just as good imho.
*resin is better
But the cost is what is a bit harsh at the moment and I assume plastic would make starting points easier – but you have the starter set which is great, the plastic models are amazing, not as great as the resin models (which are pretty damn high in quality) but still amazing. That might be why some people are wishing there was more plastic though.
Even post about Dropzone makes it really difficult not to get into.
Hard plastic is easier and safer to work with and is more durable than resin, which is important if you are gaming regularly and lugging this stuff around. The resin is more capable of holding finer detail, and so would be better for display minis.

This resin is pretty durable… I’ve seen videos of people throwing the mini’s around and it not falling apart/breaking. And when I play with my own models, I do not fear them breaking or snapping either. Imho its on par with plastic if we look at durability.
And safety?
Safety is a bit of a non-issue isn’t it?
I haven’t needed to file any of my DZC resin models. Some needed to be bent, obviously some needed bits cut off, but it’s very easy to work with. It’s nothing like other resins you’ll have used. It’s a lot tougher, and less brittle.
If you need to sand it, then just use a face mask. They are a couple of cents each, you probably already have them (or should have them) for drilling and sanding at home. It’s really not that onerous.
Hawks resin is supposed to be nontoxic
