Tanks, Mercenaries & Mortars Coming To DUST: Operation Babylon
June 10, 2014 by brennon
DUST: Operation Babylon has nine days left on Kickstarter and it's still going very strong. They recently posted a preview of what they hope to be able to share in the coming days in addition to what's already part of pledges!
So it appears as if we're going to be seeing a whole lot more support heading to the battlefield with the Mortar Team and those new USMC troopers with shotguns and flamers (can't beat a bit of flame). Of course no update would truly be good without a massive tank and a massive gun atop such a tank. In a world filled with walkers it's neat to see a more traditional looking tank still being used on the battlefield.
These Mercenaries too, what to make of them? They look fairly awesome even as silhouettes so when we actually get a look at them I imagine we'll be somewhat blown away. As well as all these things to look forward to lets take a look at some of their more recent unlocks too.
So alternative hero poses, a massive walker tooled up with lasers and alternate poses for some of the faction heroes to give you a bit more individualism when it comes to your army. All fairly awesome indeed and I can see a lot of DUST armies taking to the battlefield once this is over. Remember the rules for DUST Battlefield rules are FREE and available HERE so go check them out.
Have you been pledging for this one?

iIt looks like I might have to increase my pledge.some very nice looking miniatures
That tank just begs to be on the table. I think I can’t possibly resist its allure.
Awwwww shit, there goes my savings….again
That . . . is one serious assault gun in picture 2.
“Misha! Do you zee zhat German bunker, da? Vee don’t want it there anymore, comrade!”
Already boosted my pledge to the double Army deal, now which 2 armies to get, Some very nice extras
Awesome stuff coming for DUST. I’ve been painting the things I already have and I’ve really been enjoying them.
I am in and boosted the pledge again last night. I also got my grubby paws on the Tropical Jagdluther already via retail – a fabulous beast. Epic looking, great silhouette.
To bad I love the axis to much but that tank is awesome!
In the new Dust rules enemy equipment can be captured so the SSU mega-cannon could serve the Axis after all. It happened for real in WW2 so why not in the Dust reality? 🙂
‘Dust reality’ he says 😛
I know but the tanks isn’t on the list of captured tanks, …. For now.
It’s just too much for now… and I need to paint the ones I already bought first anyway.
