Fat Dragon Games Believe a Dwarf can Fly!
February 5, 2014 by dracs
Fat Dragon Games have announced the next printable miniature kit they are bringing out; an awesome airship for your dwarfs to take to the skies.
The idea of steam powered wings being used to let a boat take flight is pretty cool, but I have to say that I think this design could use a little bit more than that. At present it looks like it will hang in the air in precisely the same way as a brick does.
Still, it is a pretty cool concept and its inclusion in a fantasy game should open up new strategic options and challenges, as well as just being a fun addition to a dwarf player's arsenal.
Will you take flight with Fat Dragon?

Dwarves can fly if you use enough force to toss them.
But NEVER tell the elf… 😉
I quite like the structure of the air boat, but I agree with the wing situation, that is, they need to have a much bigger influence on the model – bigger, and more sailing structure to keep the craft aloft. The engines also look a bit odd and a bit small in my opinion.
I’m following The ravenfell KS from fat dragon games and it’s looking awesome.

Could be held aloft by magic, and only guided by wings. I quite like it, much more than those egg/Apache gunship fiascos GW just unveiled.
That ship could do with a balloon-like structure on it. 🙂
Well Fat Dragon Games has done it again. Another paper card creation, which I feel great about. This could also be used for a Mars 1890 game. I am a fond person of card paper models, having created a few myself for the budget of my wargaming hobby I value any company producing these kits with high standards.
Fat Dragon games having made $32,000 when only asking for $1,000 on there kickstarter it shows that there is still a market for this medium in the wargaming societys. The textures which are created and come from Fat Dragon Games are amazing the detail is stunning.
The Dwarven Airship will be placed on my wish list along with a sceen print of the Dwarf section on the GW website I also call my wish list. Fat Dragon games has had several successful Kickstarters which gives you confidence in the company.
The Dwarven Airship being made for 28mm scale miniatures and being released in the same period of the Dwarves from GW, it should gather quite a good coverage both on Beasts of War website and on the Fat Dragon Games website. With the release of the Dwarves this month I feel the Airship with fly with success. The Airship which is a download should scale to other sizes, knowing the correct percentage to print the model at.
An excellent model and a good marketing effect.
