The Resistance Ground Troops Attack In Dropzone Commander
July 15, 2014 by brennon
Some more previews have dropped (naturally) for Dropzone Commander from Hawk Wargames. See what you think of this rather cobbled together contraption with an added Scourge gun atop it and of course some of their infantry figures.
The first images, preview #12, looks like it could well be the top of one of those hovercraft vehicles. The Resistance appear to have grabbed some of the Scourge weaponry and somehow worked it into their own systems. That's quite an interesting take on things and not the first army you would have thought they'd snatch from but I want to know the fluff on it for sure!
As well as the vehicles you can't do much in Dropzone Commander without some infantry. The Resistance troops here look a lot more ragtag than the ones we've seen for the UCM and of course any of the alien races. That is to be expected of course and I think this more motley look and feel will draw people in.
Are you already thinking up a new scheme for your new Resistance miniatures?

I like those. Hawk could’ve overdone the “rag tag rabble” idea but they’ve stopped short. I’ve liked all these teasers so far so I’d best get saving.
when does this release? ive been looking at Dropzone and this will get me in…
I’m guessing it’ll launch at Gencon
Wayland have pre-orders up. They’re saying it’ll ship on 30th August.
Great looking infantry.
That hovercraft looks like it may be pretty big
I think they may prove to be rather an understatement… 😉
The Resistance are shaping up to be a great addition to the range. Liking most of what I have seen so far. 🙂
I see another game coming my way!
The more previews I see the more I want to collect this faction. I love the scrambled together look combining salvaged vehicles and the more high-tech contraptions. I can already imagine a scouting force of armoured buses and cars trying to bog down a Scourge force until one of those heavy flyers or hovercrafts show up to punch a hole in them.
That is some insane detail for infantry that is 10mm, especially the faces – I will be very impressed if that is replicated on the models themselves!
This looks to be a most promising faction for DZC 🙂
Wow, I must be the only person who is not taken by them. And if there is no plastic options then it will be a miss for the guys at the club who like the faction and want to start the game.
yes! Yes! YES! Give us MOARE!
