8" wide leg span and almost as tall, I have no idea how to store or transport this thing. It is assembled, magnatized and primed now so that's the entire dzc phr army ready for paint.
I would like to say, this was a pain in the ass to assemble and just as difficult to magnetize so be warned if you plan on getting one.
Some test models to come soon.
Infantry based and everything except the behemoth primed.
Now to decide on a paint scheme. I'm thinking either using the studio scheme with some teal pops of color OR grey with teal...idk, test minis will need to happen.
Hey folks! I'm getting back into this game after years. Played back when it was owned by another company. Don't remember much about the strategy cards. I read up on the 3.0 rules and watched a couple battle reports, can't say I'm a huge fan of them. I saw that only in Skirmish-sized games are they optional, but I wanna know how the game is in that sense. How is it without cards? If I were to play larger sized games without cards, would it still be generally fun?
Some slightly better photos of the new UCM stuff I've got painted so far. Onto the armour sprue next!
Heyo! Super new player here. I was thinking of getting the PHR Starter Box and I wanted to know how the models came. Do they only build the one variant or do they come with all the loadout bits and options. For example, can the Poseidon Heavy Dropship be built as the Tiamat or the Njord? Or does it only come with the Poseidon loadout?
Thank you guys! I’m trying to decide on whether to get the new 2 player starter set or the PHR Starter Set. I think I’m really looking more to collect than play just because of my life right now. I appreciate the info :)
Hello All! I never got into the game because I couldn't drum up interest locally (way back in 1.1), but a couple friends of mine actually picked up 3.0!
(1) I noticed that TTC put up all the lore bits of the old books, but didn't put up the unit parts, which actually had a LOT of lore I loved. I also remember that the TTC site USED to have Unit Lore on it, but since they purged all their listing, all that Lore seems missing.
Is the old Unit Lore archived anywhere?
(2) I read like... 4 short stories between Battle for Earth to now. One was like, a (anti-PHR) UCM officer discovering the PHR messing with some artifact they found on Earth (probably a Bioficer thing, but we didn't know at the time). Another was the initial contacts with Bioficer ships and boarders (and the UCM survived a boarding action). I remember a part where the UCM officer from the first story in on a PHR world and she's come around to liking the PHR, but that doesn't seem long enough for a whole story. [I just checked and this is all in the Lore Primer on the DFC links, lol.]
Are there any other things I'm missing? I read EVERYTHING from release to Battle for Earth that I could get (including the Dropfleet stuff), but after the TTC buyout, I couldn't be sure I got everything. Did TTC acrhive this anywhere [other than that Lore Primer]?
