About the Project

I have been a DropZone Commander and a PHR player since the very first BoW Boot Camp - but my army does look a lot worse for wear after a few Invasions in Crydon plus a transatlantic move. And 2 trips to Origins and 1 to GenCon. So it is time to relaunch it for DropZone Commander 2.00 and before that the MI GT in October in Lansing MI. Mitchigan done. Next step is a meet up with the Ohio Drop group in Toledo the 10th of November.

Tiamat – a great command unit and my MVP in most games, the reach of 36″ hitting on 3+ and when it hit likely to kill on all but 1s. For the PHR I have a hard time looking beyond it, I love the Nemesis type 4 command walker but it is much more likely to get hurt and would need a Posidon dropship in version 2.0 or else you are with out commander turn 1.

The other choices are the Hera command walker, with or with out a 2nd Hera guardian and a number of Apollo A walkers – I were tempted by this before the Tiamat as they can be played very aggressive from turn 1, but they are no match for an airborne commander.

Last option is the Type 2 heavy walker block – you put them down and have an unmoveable brick – a bit of old school PHR – despite the fact that they are all but unkillable it would have been my last choice, given the missions at the GT.

Sorry I have returned from Lansing, MI – the list did alright but got swamped Resistance in two games.

I ended up being on Command Value 1 – a Drop podcast – and my 2nd game against Rob the winner is on SCALD

So this weekend in Lansing, MI – is the annual GT, and part of that is a 1 day DropFleet and 1 day DropZone tournament sponsored by TT combat – I will play in both but I mainly care about the DropZone which will be run using the V2 beta rules. Including new beta-beta units (rules for all the units that was not in the original book, but in Reconquest phase 1 or 2 or not yet in any book at all), see the unofficial units on http://michigangt.com/rules-and-mission-packets/

So as there is a chance to play V2 and play with new toys I will take the V2 army here on the road, so time to haste paint the missing parts in the list I came up with.
