Dropfleet Commander Boot Camp – Friday
We're kicking things off as we get stuck into the Dropfleet Commander Boot Camp alongside Hawk Wargames. With it being Friday the Boot Campers are just arriving and they're getting stuck into building their fleets ready for battle over the weekend.
Comment To Win Awesome Goodies This Weekend!
It's time to follow along as these captains begin getting their vessels ready for war and maybe we'll even see the first few games getting played too, later on tonight.

Will you be following along with the Boot Camp this weekend?
What the Hell has been keeping you? 🙂
We’re going as fast as we can! D:
Debating between UCM or PHR fleet.
Choose both 🙂
That was my solution when faced with that choice.
…..Lots of Orbital Trash to be left…..
DROPFLEET i played my first game yesterday and it was awesome fun !
About time to start tossing some torpedos and counters!
I’m hyped for the event. Just got my starterbox and I’m looking forward to see what you guys are doing while I paint my lovely scourge vessels.
btw Is there a plan where we can see what will happen over the weekend?
hmmm still waiting for my KS Stuff und I see here a lot of painted fleets and a lot of Space Station.
No more support for Hawk KS from mine side, next time I wait for retail, because you get it faster than from a Hawk Wargaming Kichstarter.
Agreed, I’m pretty salty about not having my Commodore rewards yet. Seeing the pop up store kind of pisses me off.
That being said, looks like a great weekend. Hope you guys have a blast!
Yeah its unfortunate how long it takes. I just got my stuff this Weds (commodore level same as dahob). Retail is definitely faster but it will come. Have faith.
enjoy yer bootcamp guys!
Very jealous of the participants….have a great time.
BTW, the clear base on the ‘Monster-Station’ looks great! I’m thinking custom clear bases for all the ships might be a cool idea!
Maaaaan hope I win on of those sets just to build/paint something Dropfleet. Still no word on my KS stuff
Ah, wish I was there. Have a great time everyone! And where the fudge has Justin’s beard gone? Only yesterday he said he was keeping it. Enquiring minds need to know!
Somone needs to houserule rules for the resistance, let them start on the ground, give them lots of atmo craft, then they launch boarding actions up to orbit and use space stations. Somewhat reversing the way the game would play out.
Yeah, I’d love to see the resistance addded.
Yeah. Something very early on. Dave said they don’t have space faring capabilities. But that could always change.
Great idea. They would make great boarding teams.
I’d have no problem with a house rule for something like that on a one off, but I sincerely hope Hawk don’t add the Resistance to the game itself as it sort of goes against the background.
These are people who don’t have access to that sort of technology generally. I think the best way to incorporate the Resistance is to have them act on the ground targets in some way. If there are command cards similar to DZC then they could be incorporated in that way – as a bonus on ground assaults.
I think I’ll enjoy this weekend, really must try not to fall too far behind on the videos this time though. It’s much more fun to watch as they come on than cram them on Sunday night.
Plugged in to follow this bootcamp with great interest
This game is amazing, just got my stuff, cant wait to play
Interested to see how the orbiting moons change the game.
Uh oh … here we go! Game looks great, especially for larger fleet battles.
@rasmus – blow up some ships for me! 😀
I am doing my best
Are so annoyed I missed this one. Been meaning to get into drop fleet for some time
So looking forward to this live blog.
I hope I will be able to watch. Am at sea with dodgy reception…
the game deos look veary good
Lovely to see all the ships 🙂
Really looking forward to this after a week of night shifts, those mats/ tables look so good!
It’s always a shame to see the beard go.
Had to be this weekend, have an Infinity tournament tomorrow. I’m going to watch as much as possible though as I really am enjoying DFC.
