Dust Tactics
The year is 1947...
Dust Tactics is a tactical miniatures board game for 2-4 players. In an alternate 1940s reality, alien technology fuels gigantic machines of war as the forces of the Axis and Allies clash over rare mineral deposits that could inevitably decide the outcome of the war.
Sigrid von Thaler in front of a Jagdluther. The German Jagdluther, a heavier variant of the Luther, I hyperdetailed the already very good painted Deluxe model as usual. The Tamiya 1/48 gas tank and the roll are also aded by me.
I am a long time DUST fan. I read all the comics, I got the source books and even bought a 1/6 Playkit once...
That DUST now finally comes to the tabletop is IMO a real blessing. Being the fanboy I said I was foolish enough to order one of the Deluxe DUST Tactics sets. Boy are these prepaints good! specially the walkers need none or only very little retouches. The only thing I do not like are the bases, so expect some re-basing soon.
