Niðavellir Shipyard

The Nidavellir Shipyard is a large UCM Shipyard hidden far away from any planetary system.
After the scattering of humans after the first Scourge attack many ships used their ftl drives and made an random Foldspace jump just to get away. Many of this ships found themselves alone in the dark, to close to a star or a black hole and perished but some made it to an empty place in space. And that’s how the Nidavellir belt was discovered. A collection of large rocks, asteroids in different sizes and collection of dust and sand. Exactly how this place come to be, far from any sun, placed in between systems is not known. It is believed it was created after an extremely unlikely collision of two larger celestial body, with no stronger gravity pull in the vicinity this collection of minerals and rocks have held together by their own combined pull of each other. The scatter of large rocks and the natural background radioactivity have created a hiding place. After the survivors made contact with the now formed UCM the area have been put to good use.

Named after the Norse mythology Nidavellir, the world of the dwarves, for its rich mineral and metal resources. Perfectly for foundries and a large shipyard complex.

This is the place to produce ships...

Shaltari army, 1500pts

I took these pictures of my 1500pts Shaltari army that I will be playing this weekend at Wexio spelkonvent here in Växjö.

I have speedpainted most of it during a two week time and Im really satisfied with the result. They are not fully finished, they could need some detailing and some more colours but their fully tabletop ready.









And this is the army. If its good or bad... well I have no idea, you tell me. All I know that it looks rather cool.
As I spent the time painting miniatures I havn´t had time to read any rules at all and as it was such a long time since I last played Dropzone Commander I dont expect to win. I see this weekends tournament more of a crash course in the Dropzone Commander rules.
Atleast my guys will look good loosing.

  2. Very very nice looking army. But i think you can only take Tomahawks in multiples of threes. 3,6 or 9 Tomahawks. I haven't the rulebook with me now, so not 100% sure.

  3. It's totally fine to do that in a Shaltari army. :)

    Lovely colors!
