Cheers for the blogging guys.

That brown and green UCM fleet looks amazing!

redsarge

Yes! It seems like an odd connection, but they remind of Starcraft Broodwar, playing Terrans on a winter map using the dark green color scheme! I’m sold!

perrin

Like the building & painting party 🙂
Wish we would have a active Dropfleetcomaner community in switzerland. Looks like we have to start one 😉

dorthonion

Good night folks.
Meantime at Resistance HQ, hackers have infiltrated NachtWolfOn-5’s command and control systems 🙂

biggrim

Damn . I’d kill to be part of this!

draccan

you and me both buddy

tek72797

Yup. Sucks being broke in the US

uezguersmaster

Me to. But you do not even need to be so far away to don’t get there…

clash957

Those are some nice looking Shaltari ships. The blue really does suit them. I also like the UCM paint job. After battleship gray, which I’m sure is quite common among players, a good military green suits them.

verystoic

This looks really cool. Wish I was there^^

beetle

Tomorrow is gonna be so busy. I wanna see someone crash into one of the moons.

wargamehub

That Shaltari fleet looks really nice. Once I get DZC ground troops for them I may have to go blue.

h20fowler

Great job with vlogging today. Wish I could have come to this boot camp. Are camps ever so successful you hold another one for same system after launch?

archangelvernon

Loving the holographic shaltari, great ideas all round as well. Giving me lots of inspiration for my own fleet(s), wish I’d managed to get in on this boot camp!

coachjose59

So jealous, wish I could be there even if just to learn from Dave how to play. Great job guys, looking forward to tomorrow’s updates. Have fun at the pub!!

sunabe

but Shaltari are the bad guys an PHR are the heroes

artemis5150

Booooooo, should be loads of Scourge 😀

mulletsteve

but they’re the bad guys no one wants to be the bad guys

wataru2001

WHAT?! No Resistance?!?! (Kidding, kidding)

lorcannagle

1: Hnng, Battleship

2: Pub O’Clock at 10.45? What time do the pubs close up north?

hayes

O My wish I’d dropped into this !

paulbarton

One of the many reasons I need to goto one of these bootcamps the PUB

badula

I like the holographic shaltari and i think to be fully painted they just need the core in a different color and some ridges maybe in silver!^^

drahazar

i love boot camp

wilhelmkingspeak

Love boot camps, should do one for blood bowl when it gets into full swing!

lordbob

Seems to be a lot of past boot camper returning. I’m feeling a bit jealous to be on the other side of the pond right now.

spacewolflord

I can’t wait to get a better look at that holo Shaltari for I want to something similar for my ground assents.

cobblett

spare a thought for us who live in the wrong hemisphere!

Justin’s not required to blog through the night as he paints his PHR?

nosbigdamus

Rob, like your deep sea theme idea for his Scourge Fleet. Guess when it comes down to it the “Natural look” is in.
Suppose in a way they could look like flying squids. Yes they do look like flying Squid and when up close they can grab on hold tight and do nasty things to other ships.

lordsharick

…..Have a nice R&R….

rgreenparadox

I like the icy blues of the sonic the hedgehog fleet. Looks great. It seems like everyone is having a grand time. So jealous. Have some fun for all of us that can’t be there so we can live vicariously through all of you.

wils7

Thanks for the coverage. Looks like it was a busy day! (OF FUN)… BTW, why are these called “Boot Camp”? Curious as to the explanation.

uezguersmaster

Because they are bootcamps!
If you go there you get to learn the basics.

thalandor

Do we know how many points of ships they had to build?

jester

Rasmus:Lost in new york? Wasnt that a film?

soulflayer

Picked up a Scourge box for Christmas, Thanks BoW.

zberg

Scourge are maligned, that’s why we’re malignant!

lostdog

Ah man, now I’ve got a painting itch. The ships look amazing, everyone is doing a great job there, very inspiring. Looking forward to seeing some games played.

farseerjoe

A Chance for an incredible Fleet is upon me! i bet every1 i will win! 😀

dukerocco

This is why beastofwar is at the center of my gaming world, always the latest news and tactics but it’s by gamers for gamers. Wish I had been able to at least try to attend this weekend. Don’t know how they pick people to attend I would of come all the way from the Midwest Ohio valley.

rattman21

Hope you didnt all go to crazy in the pub, flynn im looking at you here !! Have a great day tomorrow guys

swordofjustice

What a great hobby weekend!

darkurth2000

Nothing says great battles like a bunch of Admirals with hangovers…..lol.

foyble

These drop ships are going to be amazing

foyble

The best thing about having kids who get up at 4am is that you get to watch the late BoW vids all over again

azogthoth6

Should be more scourge

fancybearzod

that was a pretty neat idea to basically do some solid base coating and use that, can’t wait to see everyone’s forces on the table.

ghent99

Looking good.

minigiant

Solid start to the bootcamp I have to say. Look forward to catching up on the Saturday after work, then following min by min on the Sunday

acjones

Looks great, am slowing trying to get more people in my area playing.

darkendlight

A great series I would love to see more of them.

alext

It’s looking great fun! And such a high standard of painting too! After a long day, and all the travelling I can’t think how bad my painting would look!

inquisitorfelix

Spaceships and beers, this is the way life is meant to be lived.

gobbo

I will have to get to a bootcamp one of these days!!!

voidjumpr

My Comment below hahahaha

docbungle

Really enjoying these, interested to see how rest of the weekend goes.

garethbranwyn

Love that Shaltari fleet.

severon

great job. looking forward to what’s coming.

nogginthenog

Great start to the weekend!

ambinormal

Those ships all look brilliant, very impressed with the models so far. I have been itching to get a 2 player box for this. Dont suppose anyone knows of a store in NZ or AU that has stock? I have not been able to find a shop with a delivery date earlier then February.

mark balkham-smith

Some familiar faces from the DZC boot camp I see

battlehawk

Those ships look great.

tonka73

Well have the evil man flu hopefully watching the boot camp will get me through….

mckraken

Battleships, mmmmmm……..

darkvoivod

I’d love to get some more enthusiastic gamers round here and have some geeking in the pub with them. I’m just lucky to have at least one of my friends who I can convince to play anything mini related

fang9

Things are looking great there. As you guys call it a night I think I will break out the rule book and get ready to follow along tomorrow. Thanks for all the hard work guys. It was fun !

guillotine

What’s up with people not picking up Scourge?

If you’ve paid attention to the DzC fluff, they’re not the true evil…

uezguersmaster

You are so right.

partridgeking

All’s looking awesome, having just mainlined the Friday content this morning, now to watch the drip feeding of Saturday whilst I work on my Scourge for both Dropzone and Dropfleet from home. One might say a boot camp of one, almost.

wolf320f

nice to see some colour on the minis

bradleigh

I’m gonna have to get in on one of these boot camps.They look like an absolute blast.

steelobelisk

All I want is the PHR fleet, the starter set is wishlisted for xmas but really love the look of the PHR.

nikkel

Those Shaltari look really good! Great work for such a short time!

multifish

Real shame I couldn’t come and join in the fun.

nakul

Would love to be there, really hyped for this game again now 😀

laughingboy

Pub, Pub, Pub, Bed, Bed, Bed, Game, Game, Game…

jmrecoil

Bring on some games!!!

lawnor

Looks like everyone is having lots of fun. No idea how they are getting everything built and painted in just a day

nyilus27

So many different colour schemes being used on the bootcamp, although blue does seem to be loved. For me I would probably go with a dark red and black colour scheme for PHR and then a vibrant orange for the Shaltari which would be my other force.

wizardv12222

Should put a count down clock on the wall, telling everyone when they need to be done on the day… put some pressure on that painting!

jkos

great Friday, now on to Saturday 🙂

stingrayp226

I would be lucky to have a fleet box complete by this point… I am a SLOW builder and an even slower painter

glitchingout

Looking good! Looking forward to seeing some gaming tomorrow morning!

jasonskee

looking good.

tookeywhy

really nice look to the ships! it is a shame they can’t get more painting done! more importantly To The Pub!

lyraeus

Ohhh the blog posts I could do with that. . .

somegeezer

Lack of Scourge is a strange one, though I can’t fault anyone for choosing the others. Some fine quick painting going on, too.

zorg

looking good everyone.

monkeybeard

I love that blue for the shaltari.

bobcockayne

Why am I not there, bad Bob , bad Bob

grimharbinger1

Those fleets look lovely.

abraxus04

I like how the shaltari are turning out

vegeta365

1 hour later and I am all caught up on Fridays action. Now on to Saturday 🙂

Hope your all having as much fun guys as I am with this amazing game.

sayntofsynners

Great day but tomorrow is better.
Thanks to All BEASTies, HAWKers , and atendees. on the great start to an awesome Weekend.

carabus

Thank you for your time and effort, there is so much content to chew through each day keep up the work as we all appriciate the effort!

soulflayer

Thanks all, all the content is really helpful. I’m going to be making a scourge fleet but I’m hoping to get 1 of each at some point.

normandyfan

Very nice

specter

I want these ships to be in stellaris

owlet

nice bright blue shaltari

draccan

where are the pub pictures? 😉

wendren

Has Justin really turned yellow and swapped sides to the scourge, shoot the traitor.

peon

Nice colour schemes there

panouil

happy camping!…. oh wait

caibre

The shading on those minis are impressive!

astralwraith

looks great, I’ll have to get the money together one of these days so I can go on one of the boot camps

fireblarney

Great start to the weekend, those Shaltari are coming along nicely.

hazyboy75

Ah Friday night at the Bridge will live long in the memory!

mulletsteve

not too long I hope, things were seen, and heard that should not be remembered

swkdb

Nice round up for the first day

uezguersmaster

A shame there are not so many Scourge players around. The ships and the ground troups (Dropzone Commander) are so beautiful.

Especially if they turn into shining bubbles of fire far far away from your own troops. 🙂

eddator227

i need some of those prizes to lure a mate on the game, haha!

mago

Watching the boot camp videos does make me want to get into the game. Surely a baby can’t be that much work?

greaper

It still blow me away how much you guys get from the games people.

cursed13

I wish there were some building and painting parties around here. I don’t really know enough people to start one myself.

orku

someone should put a live feed from the Pub since Warzan talked about that place a lot 🙂

heavygear02

I never seem to win anything, so I wish the rest of you good luck with the contest.
