The Imperium is a colossus bestriding Central Europe, a military superpower that spans the continent from the shores of the Baltic to the Adriatic coast, surrounded by jealous enemies on every front. Ruled over by Kaiser Friederich from his Prussian stronghold and protected by the enigmatic and fearsome Teutonic Knights, the Imperium is determined to seal its glorious future with blood and iron. Possessing an unrivalled base of industrial might and connected by a network of railways, it produces state-of-the-art advanced weapons and war machines in vast numbers. From voltaic cannons to gun-studded battleships, these creations are unleashed against any who would dare threaten the Kaiser’s realm. Superior firepower and matchless Germanic discipline ensures the eradication of the Imperium’s enemies, and further cements its place upon the global stage.
This Starter Set allows Admirals to pledge their allegiance to the Kaiser, and dominate the seas in the name of the Imperium. A variety of cutting-edge vessels can be assembled from the contents of this box.
Blücher Cruisers are the most common warships in the Prussian fleet, armed to the teeth with Voltaic weaponry and designed to close to optimum range before unleashing a killing storm of voltaic force. Augustus Bombardment Cruisers utilise heavy mortars to engage foes at maximum range, whilst Reiter Flak Cruisers scan the skies for warplanes to shred with their deadly anti-aircraft cannons. Schaumburg Supply Cruisers dash between elements of the fleet, supplying and refitting allied warships and ensuring they are ready to face whatever threat the enemy presents. Konrad Support Carriers send forth squadrons of Blitzen Bombers to wreak havoc from the skies, and Ferdinand Teutonic Command Cruisers dominate the battlefield with their multiple auto-targeting voltaic batteries. Volsung Cruisers, meanwhile, excel in close-range combat, avoiding enemy fire with their sheer speed and agility before delivering a killing blow with enormous Sturmbringers. Supporting the main thrust come nimble Arminius Frigates and Sigimer Destroyers, screening the task force from torpedo attacks and providing vital scout reports.
Dystopian Wars is a naval tabletop wargame that uses highly detailed miniatures to represent huge engines of destruction on, above, and below the high seas. Set in the Dystopian Age, an alternate late-nineteenth century of our own world, the Great Powers of the globe use super science and alien engineering as they clash over resources and power. Battleships and cruisers sail the surface of the sea while sky fortresses and dirigibles soar in the sky above. Submarines lurk beneath the waves alongside squid automata and colossal mechanical knights. Fighters and bombers circle, waiting to dive upon their prey. All of this combines for an intense, tactical experience.
