That way it was much easier to focus on the two existing factions and balancing them out. SSU was still not final when the book was written and instead of rushing it, it was prefered to wait until the SSU are gold and then balancing them out with the rest. Also this gives us more space for each faction to write about.

Necros wrote:I posted before I had my coffee .. what I meant was, do we need to buy the DT expansion box set that has the 2 figures in it if we want to start a SSU army for DW? Or are there heroes and other models available separately if we just wanted to buy the book?

A Whole New Battlefield
Introducing the Dust Tactics Premium Playmat, Available Now
FFG, 15th June

An explosion sent rubble flying through the air. Shards of concrete ripped through sandbags and flesh. This was it. There wasn’t time to reconsider. Sgt. Johnson leveled his barrel and began to fire. He could see bullets sparking off the walker’s armor, but it wasn’t slowing down. Its every step thundered along the battlefield…

The new Dust Tactics Premium Playmat allows players to take their games of Dust Tactics and Dust Warfare to a whole new battlefield! Available now through our Dust Tactics Premium webstore, the top-quality Dust Tactics Premium Playmat allows you to maneuver your armies across a durable and attractive 33” x 22” play surface.

Advanced Reconnaissance

Every good general seeks to gain the full measure of the battlefield, so here’s more information about the newest terrain at the center of the furious combats in the alternate-reality World War II of Dust Tactics and Dust Warfare.

- This 33” x 22” x 1/8” playmat weighs twenty-seven ounces, enough to keep it from sliding around, making it a stable surface for your games.
- The dual-sided playmat features a nine-by-six grid for the board game action of Dust Tactics and an identical, gridless surface for the intense tabletop battles of Dust Warfare.
- You can combine two Dust Tactics Premium Playmats to form the same twelve-by-nine grid available from the two fold-out maps from the Revised Core Set, but on a more durable surface.

Bring Your Battles to Life

With the Dust Tactics Premium Playmat and the three-dimensional structures from the Building Accessory Pack and Operation “Cerberus,” you can more clearly envision the dramatic action and high-stakes skirmishes of Dust Tactics and Dust Warfare. Infantry and combat walkers fire at each other along the coast, between warehouses in the docks of southern England, or in the streets of Zverograd.
