Although stalwarts like the Beijing continue to be built, the Admiralty wanted new capabilities, modernity, and lethality. Launched in 2673, UCMS Hanoi was the first of this new breed of monsters to lumber from Niccolum’s yards. The embodiment of focused colonial naval architecture, the Hanoi is built around twin UF-12000 mass drivers, making it a supreme capital ship killer.

This can be used to assemble two Battleships for your UCM Fleet. The first is the Dehli, this heavy carrier ship can drop large forces from orbit on it's bulk landers and still deal out mass firepower to keep the enemy at bay. Alternatively the kit can be assembled as the Hanoi, this ship sacrifices launch assets due to the massive UF-12000 Twin Mass Driver. This weapon can cripple any ship no matter the size.

Contains 1 resin miniatures with parts to assemble two variants, and 1 plastic Dropfleet Commander bases and flight stands.

"When I shipped out for Basic, these stations were all theory and politics, now look! This station is one of three hundred geosync platforms. That hangar up top can spit out more fighters than a capital ship. With coordinated fire from torpedo stations, nothing's getting past this line."

With a blocky build and grey paint job, the UCM theme is hard to miss. These new small stations are no exception and it will show any enemy of mankind that they're dug in and ready to hold the line!

Rather then bringing arms to bear, these stations pack launch assets that can support the rest of the UCM fleet. The first variant builds the UCM Defence Hangar that can send Fighters and Bombers into the fray to counter enemy ace pilots. The second build replaces the launch bays in favour of a payload of standard UCM torpedoes.

Space stations are integral to many scenarios in Dropfleet Commander - highly appropriate for the game's orbital combat setting!

Contains 1 resin miniature with 1 plastic Dropfleet Commander base and flight stands.

Resin miniatures supplied unpainted and unassembled. This kit will require cleaning and assembly, and could need some small holes filled.

It is the year 2673, a time of war on a galactic scale. The mighty battlefleets of the United Colonies of Mankind are ranged against those of the alien Scourge, vile overlords of humanity's once great homelands – the seven Cradle Worlds and Earth itself. The Colonies are on the offensive, the will of an entire species bent on vengeance. This grand endeavour is known as the Reconquest; the greatest military enterprise in the history of mankind. Thousands of ships and millions of soldiers battle for victory in the void and on land.

Play your part in these war-torn times. Fight for noble humanity or the dreaded Scourge in orbital battles for supremacy, played with finely detailed miniatures. Command fleets of colossal warships, unleash strike craft and deploy your ground forces in strategic naval battles above a war-torn planet. Prepare your vessels; the battle for mankind's future has begun!

Due to the attrition the UCMF suffered during the Battle for Earth, several manufacturers have gained lucrative military contracts. The Titania Aerospace Corporation continues to innovate and is now capable of producing small quantities of combat capable cruisers.

The Titania New Rio and New Berlin (named after the cities on Titania) are the product of the newly operating Titania Fleet Systems. It's two flagship cruisers are optimisations on already existing designs, the Rio and Berlin. Matching their combat performance blow for blow, the Titania variants offer a greater operational lifetime, reducing time spent undergoing refits in drydock.

While deployed in small numbers, the maintenance cost of smaller engagements and general wear and tear is a great improvement over their Nicolum counterparts. Despite this the UCMF is slow to adopt these efficient designs, due to the lack of spare parts and no compatibility with current UCM designs.

These ships offer an alternate visual style but still follow the normal rules for the UCM Rio and Berlin cruisers.

Contains 2 resin cruisers and plastic Dropfleet Commander bases and flight stands.

Resin miniatures supplied unpainted and unassembled. This kit will require cleaning and assembly, and could need some small holes filled. Other ships and gaming mats are for scale purposes only.

Reykjaviks generally operate ahead of the main fleet and are often tasked with making the first small but crucial kills in an engagement, using a pair of fixed UF-9000-S mass drivers: short-barrelled versions of those found on dreadnought turrets. The Nuuk’s ability to directly damage an opponent is limited, but a concentrated, close-range blast from its Haywire Blaster can render an enemy ship confused and unable to compute complex tasks, such as plotting firing solutions for all weapons.

This set contains 3 UCM Cutters, all able to be built as either Reykjavik or Nuuk variants. There are parts to build 3 ships, of either variant, offering brand new options to the UCM.

Although not the fastest ships in the game, the UCM Cutters are tied for the fastest ships in the fleet, and with Vectored as well, that's maximum mobility! The Reykjavik is the ultimate in UCM interceptors: get in quick and unleash a hailstorm of mass driver fire! You'll have to be careful with positioning to make the most out of them, but with Outlier and Vectored, that'll be straightforward. The Nuuk is anything but straightforward! Its Haywire Blaster does no damage, but shuts down an enemy ship's systems, sending them onto Standard Orders for the round. Especially deadly against Scourge on Silent Running, or large ships like Dreadnoughts!

Contains 3 resin miniatures and plastic Dropfleet Commander bases and flight stands.

Resin miniatures supplied unpainted and unassembled. This kit will require cleaning and assembly, and could need some small holes filled. Other ships and gaming mats are for scale purposes only.

The Lysander class Lighter has been a lynchpin in the UCM’s covert ops since it entered service in 2669. It is the UCMF’s first fully cloaked warship, pushing multiple 1st gen classified stealth systems to their current limits of scale. The class is equipped for extended infiltrations including limited surface landings to scout potential invasion sites and support Resistance groups.

Initially the class was Level-6 classified and generally reserved for Marine Force Black - the UCM’s most elite troops under the Office of Naval Intelligence. Rumours circulated among the admiralty, where demands for access to such a tool grew from whispers into shouts. As the Battle for Earth loomed, the Lysander’s existence was confirmed and production ramped up. While still precious assets, limited numbers are now available to support regular frontline operations and first strike incursions.

This set contains 6 UCM Lysander Stealth Lighters. With superlative stealth capabilities, this little ship is the perfect special ops craft.

Cast in a single piece, the model has fine detail and a smooth canopy synonymous with UCM design. Lysanders have Full Cloak and a Signature of 0", which makes them some of the stealthiest ships in the game - rivals even to Scourge! The Lysander has bays of Dropships and can even scan Clusters, making it a valuable target for your opponents, who will have to dedicate significant resources to dealing with these outliers.

Contains 6 resin miniatures and plastic Dropfleet Commander bases and flight stands.

Resin miniatures supplied unpainted and unassembled. This kit will require cleaning and assembly, and could need some small holes filled. Other ships and gaming mats are for scale purposes only.

The Istanbul is a typical naval defence monitor. Frigate-sized, it features armour as thick as a battleship’s and low speed to match. UCM Monitors achieve this through dispensing with Foldspace capability; they must be brought into system by tugs - large vessels under the auspices of the Fleet Logistical Corps. Once in system, its undersized, overstretched sublight thrusters slowly get the monitor into position.

This massive sacrifice of mobility also frees up considerable power for weapons, allowing the Istanbul to be over-gunned for its relatively small size. It features a massive UF-B-9000 mass-driver, in a unique, rotating mount; supporting its defensive role. This allows the Istanbul to easily engage targets in higher orbital layers or directed towards the surface for bombardment.

The Vienna mounts an anti-ship laser - the smallest UCM ship to be able to do so - due to its otherwise low power requirements. It also fits into a quite different role: that of battleship escort. Used in this way, its laser serves the useful secondary purpose of heating the target, assisting the much larger ship’s gunnery. Given this application, the Vienna also mounts additional point-defence clusters for limited aegis capability.

This set contains 3 UCM Monitors. These small ships are slow moving, and struggle to manoeuvre, but make up for that by targeting between Low and High Orbit without penalty, and having unparalleled armour for that size of ship.

This pack makes three ships, buildable as either Istanbul class Monitors or Vienna class Escort Frigates. The Istanbul has a UF-8-9000 Mass Driver, which is a ludicrous weapon for a ship of its size, usable either as a regular weapon or a Bombardment system, providing danger for all orbital layers. The Vienna on the other hand is faster and offers both Aegis (4) and the Mamba Laser - the smallest burnthrough laser in the game! With the traditional Burnthrough and Flash, it's a great weapon for softening up enemy ships and leaving them vulnerable to larger vessels.

The beginnings of the UCM were bathed in fire and blood. The alien Scourge attack on Earth and the Cradle Worlds left humanity reeling. What was left of the fleet fled to the Colony Worlds to lick

their wounds for 150 years. In the colonies life is bleak and hard, but relatively safe from invasion. Humankind toiled for that time, building a brand new army and a new fleet with emerging technology.

In this militaristic state, the United Colonies of Mankind was born. Gone were the lavish ways of old Earth, replaced by frugality and utilitarianism. Their fleet reflected their existence, as simple, mass-produced ships that accomplish their goals with little pomp or ceremony. Entire armadas leave the shipyards on an almost daily basis, grinding the war machine every forward to take the fight to the Scourge and any others that might get in their way.

Now, almost two centuries later, the UCM have arrived at Earth: the focal point of their Reconquest.

This box contains an entire UCM Battlefleet, with (almost) everything you’ll need to raise a fleet for your games of Dropfleet Commander. This set contains a mix of plastic and resin ships, which provide a solid core for your fleet and some more advanced ships to fill particular roles. Add just a Quick Start Rulebook and a set of dice and you'll have everything you need for your new fleet.

The plastic Cruisers and Frigates can be assembled in dozens of ways, each with a very specific place in the fleet. From the up-armed Cobra Heavy Lasers of the St Petersburg Heavy Cruisers, all the way down to the troop landing capacity of the New Orleans Strike Carrier.

Each ship comes with a multi-part plastic base and flight stand to keep track of your damage, orbital layer, fire arcs, energy status and ship names.

The UCM have heavy armour and balanced weaponry, making them an excellent starter faction.

This box contains:

• 1 Resin UCM Battlecruiser, which can be built as either a Johannesburg or a Perth. Typical length 132mm, 12 parts per ship (including optional ones).
• 6 Plastic UCM Cruisers. These multi-part plastic sprues contain 28 parts each (including optional ones), and can be assembled in 9 different classes, including Cruisers, Heavy Cruisers, Fleet Carriers, Light Cruisers, and Troopships! Typical length 107mm.
• 8 Plastic UCM Frigates. These multi-part plastic sprues contain 4 Frigates, which - using the 38 parts on each sprue (including optional ones) - can make up to 5 different classes, including Frigates and Strike Carriers. Typical length 65mm.
• 3 Resin UCM Corvettes, in a single piece with typical length of 49mm.
• 56 UCM Command Cards & 33 Activation Cards.
• 2 Fastplay cards.

Contains 14 multi-part plastic miniatures and 4 resin miniatures, all with multi-part bases, 89 playing cards, and 2 fast play cards.

Resin miniatures supplied unpainted and unassembled. This kit will require cleaning and assembly, and could need some small holes filled.

From years of living in the constant strife of the colony worlds, the admirals of the UCM were already wily opponents. But after lifetimes of service in the Reconquest, they come with decades of experience fighting the Scourge, Shaltari, and even renegade humans.

This pack contains 56 Command Cards to use during your games. From the Point Defence improving Fighter Aces to the incredibly offensive Infiltrate and Sabotage, the DFC UCM Command Cards provide great fun and a huge amount of unique feeling to playing a UCM Fleet.

With distinct Dropfleet styling and easy to read rules, this deck is the ideal purchase for any aspiring UCM admirals, fighting the Reconquest of the Cradle Worlds, or even battling above Earth itself.

Made from high quality playing card material, these cards are standard playing card sized, fitting into regular card sleeves.

This blister pack can be assembled as either a Beijing, New York or Tokyo class battleship. It is cast in exceptionally tough impact resistant resin and white metal and features extraordinary detail. 1:9150 (0.2mm) scale.

THE BEIJING CLASS BATTLESHIP

The Beijing class is an extremely resilient vessel which packs extensive firepower, namely nine UF-6400 mass drivers in three turrets, twelve UF-4200 mass drivers in four turrets and one Cobra laser, not to mention scores of missile bays and banks of point defence lasers. It is currently one of the most popular commands of the UCMF’s Admirals and for good reason – few ships the UCM has on active service are as effective in the annihilation of any enemy as the formidable Beijing. Most of the UCMF’s battleships are surrounded by tales of their illustrious deeds, their names etched into the collective consciousness of the colonial citizenry and this class has no shortage of legends.

THE NEW YORK CLASS BATTLESHIP

The New York class is one of the most in-demand ships in the UCMF since its flexibility and awesome power are almost unparalleled. A later development of the Beijing class, it replaces the former’s heavy turrets with a gigantic voidcraft hangar for launching scores of lethal fighters and bombers. It also replaces the Cobra laser with an enormous torpedo tube and internal storage for two of these devastating munitions.

THE TOKYO CLASS BATTLESHIP

The colossal Tokyo class battleship is one of the most specialised ships of this tonnage level in the UCMF. While based on the Beijing design, this class dispenses with its main mass driver battery in favour of three turreted UF/B-8000 bombard cannons, making this one of the most formidable orbital bombardment platforms anywhere in the Reconquest. Only the UCM has need of a battleship sized vessel designed for this purpose, such is the scale of the mighty undertaking.

This set contains 1 UCM Battlecruiser, able to be built as either a Rome or a Venice class.

Opening up some interesting new design space, these Battlecruisers offer something visually different to the rest of the UCM fleet. The Rome champions the triple prow first seen on the Kiev, and the Venice opts for an open prow, leaning into the antennae style in the rest of the range.

The Rome is your answer to a hard-as-nails escort. With 2 Heavy Torpedoes, even the largest ships can be split apart with ease, and its massive banks of point defence lasers aid their assistance to nearby ships. Meanwhile the Venice is your answer to a light command ship. House your Admiral in there to gain Command Card bonuses, and recycle those Command Cards into powerful additional bonuses to Battlegroup orders.

Contains 1 resin miniature and plastic Dropfleet Commander bases and flight stands.

Resin miniatures supplied unpainted and unassembled. This kit will require cleaning and assembly, and could need some small holes filled. Other ships and gaming mats are for scale purposes only.

Cruisers are the most common size of capital ship and form the backbone of almost every fleet fighting in the Reconquest. They offer an excellent and flexible combination of speed, firepower and versatility. The standard cruiser hull is so ubiquitous that its design has been redefined many times for a wide variety of roles.

The Havana is the earliest type of destroyer currently in service with the UCMF, having first seen combat with the Shaltari in 2596. Its design stems from older and largely outmoded naval strategies revolving around the use of torpedoes as primary weapons.

The Vancouver class emerged from the UCMF Naval Design Bureau in the late 2640s in response to the obvious need for more cost effective fighter and bomber support than the well armed Seattle class offered.

The Kiev is an interesting vessel, in that it features a pair of super-heavy UF-9000 series mass drivers in a fixed position. These impressive weapons are heavier gauge than those mounted in almost any other UCMF warship, save the mighty dreadnoughts. The mission role of Kiev class is to hunt and kill the most heavily armoured enemy vessels with swift brutality. They are unsubtle sledgehammers and the bane of enemy flagships. Many an enemy admiral has met their ignominious deaths at the hands of this smaller adversary since its inception in the 2640s.

This set contains 3 UCM Destroyers, all able to be built as either Havanas, Vancouvers, or Kievs! There are parts to build 3 of each Havanas and Vancovers, or 2 Kievs.

The sleek design of the UCM Destroyers uses the typical fins of the UCM and arranges them in three completely distinct ways for three completely different ships! Fast and surprisingly tough, the Destroyers operate as search-and-destroy vessels, or escort carriers. The Havana's Light Torpedoes provide surprising punch, the Vancouver gives a handy (and cheap) launch vessel, and the Kiev is the UCM's Heavy Destroyer, its UF-9000 Twin Mass Driver the bane of even Battleships!

Contains 2-3 resin miniatures (depending on build) and 3 plastic Dropfleet Commander bases and flight stands.

Resin miniatures supplied unpainted and unassembled. This kit will require cleaning and assembly, and could need some small holes filled. Other ships and gaming mats are for scale purposes only.

THE JOHANNESBURG CLASS BATTLECRUISER

Following the success of the experimental Atlantis program, the Johannesburg class was designed around an entirely new hull created for the specific requirements of battlecruisers. Its primary armament is a pair of huge quad UF-6400 mass driver turrets, a more potent array of this calibre than a Beijing class battleship. It also features launch capacity equivalent to a Seattle class Fleet Carrier. In combination with the speed necessary to keep up with cruisers, it is a superlative and flexible killing machine.

THE PERTH CLASS BATTLECRUISER

The Perth class dispenses with the largest mass drivers in favour of an enormous Viper super-heavy anti-ship laser, one of the largest weapons ever to be mounted to a UCM vessel. This colossal weapon takes up over half the ship's length. It is devastating if unsubtle when fired and fully capable of neatly slicing a cruiser in two. The Viper's obvious energy signature necessitates use by a skilled captain if enemy retribution is to be eluded. The massive generators and power storage facilities needed to feed this beast of a weapon precludes the launch bays featured in the Johannesburg, although the Perth compensates by doubling the UF-4200 mass driver armament of its sister class.

Introducing the biggest ships that Dropfleet Commander has ever seen. One of the most detailed spaceship kits of all time, the UCM Dreadnought measures 195mm long, with the twin-bodied hull synonymous with UCM engineering.

This set includes parts to make either the UCM London class or the UCM Washington Dreadnought. The London has a ridiculous 20 Mass Driver Turrets, which - when going Weapons Free - can fire 40 shots. Meanwhile the Washington forgoes outright firepower for a Launch capacity of 15!

Rules for Dreadnoughts can be found in Battle for Earth.

Resin miniature supplied unpainted and unassembled with a multi-part plastic base. Note that this is an advanced modelling kit and may need small gaps filling and pieces gently heated and bent to fit.

The Santiago class corvette is a small, atmospheric-capable vessel of sub-frigate tonnage. These nimble, fast ships were designed for a single purpose - hunting down enemy atmospheric fleet assets. They are armed with a potent array of air-to-air missiles, utterly lethal to the frigate sized vessels that are its favourite prey. In particular, strike carriers and their precious cargo are prime targets since these strategically vital ships are shielded from the majority of enemy fire while operating in atmosphere.

Santiagos are favoured by the most aggressive captains fresh from Niccolum's Naval Academy. Atmospheric combat is not for the faint of heart as it must be fought only at close range where the small Santiago is always vulnerable to return fire. The uniquely challenging nature of these operations is a fiery crucible from which many budding captains do not return, but those that do are often destined for greatness in the future.

CONTENTS: 6 single piece resin miniatures/blister

Length: 49mm

Miniatures supplied unassembled and unpainted.

There's no better way to show your allegiance (and stave off the watchful eyes of the state censors) than rolling green! Any UCM player worth their salt won't soon let the enemy forget their treachery/invasion/treachery again/place in society (delete as appropriate) by throwing Colonial dice at them (figuratively).

Made in UCM green with an opalescent finish, these dice have the UCM logo etched on the "6" facing, meaning you'll be cheering the colonies every time you roll high!

This pack contains 10 six-sided dice, perfect for games of Dropzone Commander and Dropfleet Commander.

Forged in desperation, united by adversity and resurgent in power, the UCM exists for a single purpose - to wrest mankind's lost strongholds from the clutches of the Scourge. A collection of diverse and remote frontier worlds, the UCM is a restless cultural melting pot, bubbling with a righteous desire for vengeance.

One and a half centuries after the Scourge captured Earth and the Cradle Worlds, the UCM has expanded beyond all recognition. The greatest fleet in the history of humanity has been assembled; a vast armada recently unleashed against enemies old and new.

The UCM fleet is efficient, utilitarian and utterly lethal - packing awesome firepower from turreted mass drivers, enormous lasers and banks of missile bays. It is an excellent all-round force, delivering flexibility, survivability and dependability in one lethal package.

This boxed set is the perfect way to get started with a UCM fleet or add to an existing one, since it can be configured to almost any requirement!
