  • As we all saw a little while ago, Warren got to unbox the new Dropzone Commander two player starter set. Well he couldn't resist bringing the guys from Hawk Wargames back in to the studio to play through the box's starter mission.. So guys get ready to not only see how this amazing game plays, but also to get some insight on how your first game will feel and look, as well some of the tactics you might want to employ.

    Such a cool looking game, been thinking about this for ages. Took the plunge today and picked up the 2 player starter set plus two expansions for each army. Now I need some scenery. This set looks amazing.

    Well I am really late to the show but I just bought the Hawk Games starter off ebay and the command cards for the Scourge and UNC, and are really excited to have them.

    The rolling for Initiative reminds me at AT-43, it had a similar system.

      If u got the players and fancy a divorce from GW , then good on you . GW still seem to entice folks with stunning new models and superbly formed terrain. This Game seems very basic and a ‘ less is more ‘ gaming experience. Well done Hawk Games !!

      @PMMagro 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Meeko1010100112 The starter sets are not expensive at all.
      The models sold sepratly at 10mm are not cheap though.
      If you can do with just say 2 x starter armies and a few indivual blisters it's very acessable indeed.

    @lorcannagle 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    The +2 move doesn't increase your move/fire stat, so if your Rapiers go faster than 4", they can't fire.

  • @Coraxincarmine
    @Coraxincarmine 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    The UCM sabres where in a road at the end of the video, doesn't it gives them +2 to movement? that would have let them shoot at the anti air with impunity.

      @canis77 8 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I miss the no pre-measuring days of 40k. It added an extra skill to the game. There were some fuckers who destroyed it by basically saying "I'll move here...on second thoughts here...no actually here...." and used their move phase as a way of pre-measuring. Rather than fixing that in the rules they said 'fuck it, pre-measuring is now allowed' a real shame.

  • @tr3nta345

      +Danthehorse infact, but what i was saying is that it doesnt compliment the miniatures, even more so on camera, the glossy finish on the terrain and the "flat" texture make them look worst and i wanted to see the detail better

    • @PMMagro

      Sure the cardborad tgerrain is not the main thingh of the starterset but one do need terrain so it's good it comes with the box.

    Putting tank sideways to cover two other tanks is the most doggy move I have ever seen. I wouldn't play with someone who does that.

    • @alexanderstanfield5845
      @alexanderstanfield5845 8 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      +inhumanbookworm Wtf man that is literally 1/2 of the UCM strat, they're built to play like that due to their articulated special rule: they can shoot 1in above their actual guns. You can also land the dropship to use that as cover.
      Tl:dr If the dev says its okay, its okay

    • @inhumanbookworm
      @inhumanbookworm 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    • @andrehas82
      @andrehas82 7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Its basic tactics in just about any wargame you can come across, to cover your units with other units. And in this particular case, Alexander is right, its part of the UCM´s strategy both in fluff and in game-play. I wonder what the generals of old would say to your statement, "damn dodgy Germans! He covered his tanks with his own tanks to gain the advantage! Ill never go to war against that general again:(".

    • @intruder313
      @intruder313 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Agreed. I was considering buying this game until I saw that AND that the Dropships themselves just hover about with their tanks for the entire game.
      Just so much silly cheese.
      With such a small-scale game (6 tanks and 2 piles of infantry each) there's no reason that the rules should not include facing; something which is fundamental to tank design and doctrine.

    • @intruder313
      @intruder313 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      No tank would ever sit side-on to the enemy - unless it was immediately abandoned.
