Grab Yourself The Prussian Ice Maiden Super Carrier For Dystopian Wars
December 15, 2017 by brennon
If you like yourself some Dystopian Wars then watch out for this pre-order as Warcradle has made the Prussian Ice Maiden Super Carrier available for you to pick up. How festive and wintery...
Here's some of the background on this particular beast of a creation...
"Some question the sanity of mounting a giant galvanic projector on an iron-hulled warship. Those who would dare to doubt are shortsighted, blinkered idiot! Faith and intellect are qualities we have in abundance and they have seen our works take to the seas with only minor collateral losses. Still, to waylay any lingering fears, ice has proven not only more stable as a firing platform but less prone to mishap also."
Knight Luminary Karolina Sanders, Teutonic Order
This ship is 260mm in length and has been completely redesigned and resculpted for the new edition of the game. It is going to be a titanic piece on the tabletop and maybe even dominate it as an objective-style narrative piece perhaps.
You can even play around with the ship and its customisation options as the bay doors at the front can be modelled open or shut depending on what you fancy. The main body of the ship has also been cast out of a single mould so you won't have to worry about sticking two large bits together.
Are you tempted by the Ice Maiden?

I am tempted by the Ice Maiden. I signed up to buy the original one in Spartan’s kickstarter last year, there is a lot better detail on this one and I like the fact the propulsion pod at the back is half submerged in this one unlike the ” jet engine” the original render had displayed.
I am sorely tempted to buy it (and probably will … I despair of my lack of restraint at times) but this isn’t really a faction I had intended to play …. but it does look nice …. bugger
Forgive my ignorance, I take it someone snatched up the IP of DW?
Warcradle guys who bought wild west exodus
That is very nice looking steampunk super carrier.
I just realised that it can be modeled with “guns run out” or with the gunports closed……. How am I supposed to make that choice …………Buy 2??? … *slaps self* Don’t even think about it
Simple, just buy two, one of each
What are you doing to me mate … I need restraint not encouragement 😀
Well they have made a lot of changes to the model I got lucky and actually got mine. I posted pics a while ago if you want to compare the two.(http://www.beastsofwar.com/groups/painting/forum/topic/ice-maiden/).
Also war cradle has a an offer to register for free Dystopian Wars V3 and Armored Clash V3 rulebooks physical copies. https://blog.warcradle.com/dw-free-rule-book
Nice paint job … 🙂 I missed seeing this the first time around. While I am happy for you that you got an original and I am , quite sincerely. 🙂 i am also bloody annoyed that some were made and sent out while other backers … who may say, live on the other side of the Earth and therefore paid an additional 18 pounds to have nothing delivered, didn’t even apparently have their models made. Sorry but it really smarts that they didn’t even finish the casting run or ran it several lots and delivered to the nearby backers… Read more »
I think the one beer will last longer than the cricket
No problem. I’m in the US. I think the reason I got some of my stuff is that I wrote customer service early on and inquired politely about my order and that is I got some of the few things that were actually made.
Oh okay … well that will teach me not to inquire 🙂 . …. I will still be slightly dirty at England since Spartan are English … I anticipate though that will lasrt less than 12 hours (unless rain halts play) … I do have a soft spot for England and English people really … they make the best war games. 😀
