Dystopian Wars: Empire Starter Set [2026]

For centuries, the Immortal Celestian Emperors have been content to keep the Seven Realms isolated from the rest of the world. But in this new Dystopian Age, and with enemies on every side, they have come to realise that isolation will not keep their realms safe. They must adapt. With terrifying colossi, impregnable skyfortresses, and torrents of alchemical fire, the Empire demonstrates their naval power to all who would threaten their sovereignty.

When Crowns topple, Unions break, and Sultanates shatter, it is the Empire that will endure.

This faction Starter Set provides the perfect complement of miniatures to either begin or expand your Dystopian Wars Empire fleet. The Empire is infamous for its mastery of alchemical weaponry, deadly gases and unquenchable flames designed to sow terror and devastation amongst their foes. Boasting awesome gun batteries, alchemical rockets, and Huoqiang flamethrowers, the mighty Hokkaido was built to sail in a line of battle and respond to injury in kind. Further back behind these brawlers is the versatile Miyagi Advanced Monitor, renowned as an adaptable chassis capable of launching Rin-Exo Submersibles to target enemy vessels from below, or of seeding the area with deadly mines before the battle even begins. Newest to the combined fleets of the Jade Pact is the Oni Command Cruiser - named after the legendary “Oni” prototype battlecruiser, it continues its namesake’s legacy by deploying some of the Empire’s advanced generator technology to the frontlines. Ranging ahead, meanwhile, are the Kyoto Fast Frigates, which excel at darting around an enemy flank and opening fire from wherever it is least expected.

Whatever an Admiral’s strategy, the contents of this box will provide the perfect backbone of any fleet.

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.
