Back in April Spartan Games showed off the Olympic Class Troop Transport for Dystopian Wars.
The Olympic Liner is one of the largest passenger ships ever created. Built at the Proctor & Mercer Shipyards in Middlesbrough, these impressive vessels have carried people over the seas in style since 1861. A main selling point is the advanced technological design, and claimed robustness of the ship’s hull. However, the outbreak of world war saw many of the Olympic Liners refitted to fulfil the role of a troop carrier. With its pioneering keel design, the Olympic Class Troop Transport cuts through the water at high speed, allowing it to efficiently deliver thousands of troops to war zones around the globe.
I remember thinking that would make a great model for various Dystopian War scenarios. I didn’t get one at the time, and thought no more of it.
Finding one recently though, I did buy it on impulse. It comes in a blister and is a one piece resin model with metal masts.
Nice. I picked up a FSA carrier and half-a-dozen escorts, plus the rules v1.1 at ‘Reveille’ the other weekend. When are we going to have a game with all these ships?
Yes, we should have a game. Not sure when, will get a day soon.
