I myself feel intimidated to paint these models, but again I can't wait to do so. This product has kind of reinvigorated my feel for the hobby as a whole. I'll be taking my sweet time assembling and painting this little jewel of a game.

Me too! I was looking at them this morning before work. Lovely models and something that I would hate to mess up. That volcano island is going to be a treat.

And as for the Fantasy Flight Games comment, I think Horus Heresy is definitely EPIC...in feeling and scale. I love that game! GW should take some lessons from these guys. :P

Uhm. If it is anything like the boxed set GW produced back in 1980-something, then it is the same game....

Not sure why the previous post shortened the link which means it didn't work. The ending of the link is dreadfleet-review-first-game/

Yes, the volcano is really nice. The latest white dwarf mag has a painting guide for the ships and the terrain. My local hobby store worker also said it was about 85 pages of Dreadfleet commercial...I told him that's FINE with me. ;D

I believe at the core of the game it's the same, but I think they tweaked the mechanic of the game with all the cards.

Glad that you liked the box set. The price is still too steep for my limited budget though.

That is why you must go bargain shopping! ;D

To be honest, I dumped a bunch of stuff on Ebay, then I had my funds for Dreadfleet.
