The Imperium are an interesting fleet in Dystopian Wars, often represented by a lot of grey! So, this was an interesting challenge for John to make them pop on the tabletop. What do you think of the final look of this Imperium Fleet?
Make sure to check out the List Building Video, where John sits down with Shay and Gerry to go through turning these miniatures into an army for the tabletop.
