Breach & Clear With Icarus’ Miniatures Alliance Boarding Troopers
April 6, 2015 by brennon
It's time to kick down some doors, smash in some windows, blow an airlock and basically just smash everything when it comes to taking down your targets as Icarus Miniatures reveal the artwork for the amazing looking Alliance Boarding Troopers...
Q&A With Icarus Miniatures!
"The standard operating procedure for breaching an enemy ship is for a squad of boarding troopers to travel to the enemy vessel in a special craft. This craft has a type of ram on the front which can puncture through the hull of an enemy vessel, before opening to allow the boarding troopers to disembark. Once within, boarding troopers use short ranged weaponry such as shotguns and flamethrowers to clear the corridors and advance on the ship’s critical systems."
In the game these troops work best up close with their shotguns doing the brunt of the work. They will be punching forward for objectives then digging in to make sure they hold it at all costs. The upgrades for them include a flamethrower and sword/energy gauntlet if you want to get really stuck in.

I think the artwork is great and as you've seen earlier today these guys can deliver on the render/miniature front too it seems!
Would you be part of a boarding party?

Concept artwork for these looks fantastic, looking forward to seeing the miniatures for them.

You can see the first of the miniatures in the main content flow as part of a Q&A with Icarus 🙂

The more I see the more interesting this one seems
Who knew I needed another minis game?
This looks set to be an interesting game.
As with all of the above comments Icarus is doing some amazing conceptual design work that just pulls in the sci fi minis fan! Love the artwork above for the Boarding Trooper. 🙂
Love the helmet!
