Miniatures from Dreadfleet boardgame

[MaaX]

Hi all,

I got unassembled Dreadfleet game for Christmas 2021. I assembled everything right away and I'm slowly painting all of the pieces. I think I have 6 ships left and some tokens.

First of the terrain:

And now the ships:

The Bloody Reaver



The Shadewraith




The Heldenhammer





Black Kraken

Nice crisp paintwork, what do you use them for?  Still playing Dreadfleet or running them for something else?  Mantic's version of Man O' War looked pretty cool.

Thanks, I'm actually going to play Dreadfleet with them.

Thanks, I'm actually going to play Dreadfleet with them.

Bet you don't play it more than once........   'tis an effin awful game.
Which is a shame as the models are great and it could have been the successor to the far superior Man O'War.
In honesty you are better off hitting Sea of Claws, the iO group for Man O'War for rules.

I believe there is also a facebook group but I don't have any info.

I think I played once or twice 

I wanted to have everything painted before I play again.

So yeah, will see how I like it after few more game.
But thanks for thew link, I will look into it.

Very cool. I always enjoyed Man O War, but never played Dreadfleet. It's nice to see the miniatures painted up.

I still haven't painted mine (no surprise there...). I like the crisp colour schemes, especially the castle, which looks so creepy with that restricted palette.

I too have the entire game painted up, miniatures and terrain are superb, the game is a bit "meh" - sadly. Have not played it for several years but have no heart to sell it as the minis are just too cool...

These are quite nicely painted, maybe a bit of inspiration for me.
I was intending to use mine copy of the game to play Galleys & Galleons (with its fantasy supplement), but I've yet to get past priming the miniatures.

Nice. Love the Black Kraken.

WOW so many comments Thank you all, I'm glad you like it.

I still haven't painted mine (no surprise there...). I like the crisp colour schemes, especially the castle, which looks so creepy with that restricted palette. 

The only time I ever had all of my minis painted was when I was still going to school - not making any money and painting whatever I got for Christmas or Birthday with my water color school paints 

And yeah the castle did turned out cool
