DWMG Salute Game: Victory of the Daleks
« on: January 20, 2011, 12:29:48 PM »
We're already prepping our Doctor Who Miniatures Game particpation game over at Crooked Dice towers.

This year: Victory of the Daleks. A six player fast play game which uses the Series 5 episode as a (very) loose background - but also has elements of The Empty Child and another Classic Who episode... so hopefully something for everyone!

Anyway, here are pics of a couple of the squads - first the Ironsides. These were originally Micro Universe Dalek Sec, these were converted by Mark Evans and painted by Mark Dixon. I like these a lot!

The Ironsides




Next is Winnie and his brave boys - Black Scorpion and Artizan. Painted by Dags.

The British Bulldogs



I'll keep you posted on the table (a WW2 airfield!) and the other squads as we get them painted.

Jon's just finished off a couple more squads.

Remember I said we were deviating from the script a little?

OK so now we have Bracewell's Robo-Men (CD Armed Minions with Mannequin heads), some Empty Children (HF's Rose) and some Autons (CD Unarmed Minions with Mannequin heads).

It's a Classic and New Series mash up. It's lack of canon is leaving me in a cold sweat, but it should be a much more enjoyable game with different squads.

The table last year almost exclusively attracted kids and teens, so we're going for a fast-play, fun game.

The Autons will be led by the Master - prolly use Delgado, but might be tempted into using Heresy's Simm.

The last squad will be three Time Agents led by Captain Jack. Two Artizan pilots and the CD April release...



The table is basically a WW2 British airfield with hangers, barracks, air control tower etc. Building has just started.

I like the look of that, especially the Ironsides! ;D

Uti, if you haven't already got this, I thought it might come in handy.



Hope you like it.
They will not force us,
They will stop degrading us,
They will not control us,
We will be victorious!!

Cheers Trooper! Already gracing the back of some of the player cards - and probably bits of scenery around the board :)
