Hawk Share Images Of PHR & Shaltari Fleets On The Horizon
March 21, 2016 by brennon
Hawk Wargames have shared some more images of their upcoming ships for both the PHR and the Shaltari that were part of the Dropfleet Commander Kickstarter. This is really looking like a great set of alien fleets that might have the edge over what we're seeing from the UCM and Scourge...
Post-Human Republic
We've been keeping an eye on what they've been doing and while there are some additional miniatures to show off from their update HERE these two were my favourites. I love the look of the Orpheus ship with that hint of blue amidst the inner workings.
Both of these ships are looking great and I like how they mirror the design of their ground units with the pure cream shell too.
Shaltari
On the other side of the colour spectrum we have the vibrant looking Shaltari ships. Here are just two of their ships coming out soon.
While I really do like the bright orange it would be neat to see someone tackle these ships with some different colours. Purple or blue would be interesting with accents of green in there too. How would you paint them?
Princess Civilian Cruise Liner
As an additional surprise they also showed off the Princess Civilian Cruise Liner which will have a scenario made based around it when the game hits the tabletop. I think this looks great...
Now that is a luxurious looking cruiser liner for the stars. I can imagine that this comes under attack by one of the alien forces and the UCM have to rush to its aid as it's getting bombarded.
Did you plump for the alien races?

OMFG these models !!!!
Sooo getting me some phr to use as stand-ins for bfg.
I’m using BFG ships as stand ins for PHR in tonights Beta game. Tonight is also the last night to jump in with a late backers pledge.
I wasn’t so keen on the Shaltari. They were my least favourite of them all until I saw them in the flesh. They are awesome but not as awesome as the PHR
Can’t wait to get these babies!^^
i’m planning for a HUUUUUUUUGE rpg campaign using the infinity rpg as a base but way more cyberpunky!^^
Thats a good idea.
Sweet! If the game is as in-depth as DZC I can see myself picking up a few fleets!
The Princess reminds of that Cruise Liner from the Fifth Element, which isnt a bad thing
First thing I thought of, @mage!
Gee, another cruise liner for Doctor Who to come to save.
Those look impressive.
My kickstarter pledge needs to hurry the hell up.
That civilian cruise liner…*ONNOMNOMNOM* It looks like a million dollars.
These look insanely good…
they are amazing models like everything from hawk they are so detailed, seeing the up close they look even better cannot wait for my admiral pledge to arrive:-)
the details they can get on the ships are brilliant.
@brennon the PHR are human or at least posthuman
Looking great, but that is no surprise
Every single ship design I have seen for all of the factions in this game has been excellent. The consistency of the quality on display is incredibly impressive in itself.
When everything looks this good, the hardest part will be picking a faction.
If only the civvie cruiser was an actual basis for a fleet. It’s easily the best looking of the bunch.
These really do have a sci-fi flare that reminds me of Star Trek in a good way. I always loved the ship battles that seemed much more focused on tactics than high octane.
Christ almighty but their spaceships are freaking gorgeous. Absolutely beautiful. Just gushing praise from me on these.
