Dropzone Commander
The guys over at Hawk Wargames have created some incredible new units for their game Dropzone Commander.
We've got some awesome hobby chatter for your Sunday including talk about a 11ft Long Star Destroyer.
Happy Sunday! Welcome to The Weekender XLBS where we're talking about all things post-apocalyptic and wasteland-like in the wake of so many people checking out the new Mad Max film...
We take a look at the behemoth of the PHR army; the Hades Super-Heavy Walker and discuss how Dropzone Commander players can utilise this beast and its tail mounted Super-Heavy Rail Repeater to terrorise opposing forces.
You've seen how PHR players can utilise the Hades walker but what about tackling the beast if you're a UCM, Scourge or Shaltari player? In this video we show you how your Dropzone Commander army can fight the Hades on land and in the air too.
Want to rebuild those awesome vehicles from Mad Max: Fury Road? How about checking out this work one man has done with LEGO and then see what else we suggest for giving it a go!
Aliens and Men fight on the ground as well as in their vehicles as we get a look at some more units coming out for Dropzone Commander by Hawk Wargames.
Check out the reveal of the new UCM Fleet for Hawk Wargames' Dropfleet Spaceship game coming soon! We've also got a look at new infantry figures and some news on a big Avenger Build Diary in the works!
