Does anyone know of a list of ship dimensions for Dystopian Wars? I need one more tray for my Dystopian Wars stuff and as looking to use the extra space for some combination of a second fleet starter, alliance ships, etc.

For example, I made this for my own use:



Ruler Battleship 2" 4.5" x 1.5"
Olympic Class Transport 2" 6" x 1"
Illustrious Sky Fortress 2" BF Shape does not work.
Bunker Complex 2" 2.5" x 4"
Doncaster Bomber 1" 1.75" x 1.75" Stored diagonally
Attacker Frigate 1" 1.75" x .75"
Merlin Light Interceptor 1" 1.25" x 1.25" Stored diagonally
Orion Destroyer 1" 2.25" x .75"
Bastion Escort 1" 2" x .75"
Vanguard Submarine 1" 3.5" x 1.5"
Tribal Cruiser 1" 1.25" x 2.5"
Lord Hood Battlecruiser 1" 3.5" x 1.25"

First number is a height (minimum 1", some stuff at 2" could probably be adjusted to 1.5") and other numbers are the height/width.

(Obviously, I favor the KoB.)

Really like the look of the new Danish allies, thoguh they're not friends of the KoB.

I have a lot of Prussian stuff so I'll post dimensions for it when I get home

Got a good bit of EotBS stuff so i'll get you that stuff tomorow. Mind if I throw a link here or something in my newbie player post Balance? I had a few questions on size when I got my carry case too, so could be helpful for future.

Actually, if we can get a few factions witha good start, maybe this should be re-formatted on Dakka's wiki system? I can do tables and stuff there, drop the BattleFoam-specific stuff, and have easy-to-fill blanks for stuff that needs to be added.

Here's a DakkaWiki page for this:

http://www.dakkadakka.com/wiki/en/Dystopian_Wars_Model_Sizes

I must confess that i have no idea how to format all those tables but here are some Kob untis you missed and most of the prussian units

Avenger Fleet Carrier- 1.5" 4.75" x 2.75"
Majesty Dreadnought- 2" 5.5" x 2.45"
Swift Corvette- 1" 1.75" x .75"
Agincourt Class Gunship- 1" 2.5" x 1"
Sovereign Landship (without drop on)- 1" 2.5" x 1.75"
Mk II Medium Tank- 1" 1.1" x 1"
Cromwell Bombard- 1" 1.1" x 1"
Terrier Tiny Tank- 1" 1" x 1"

Prussian Empire
Blucher Dreadnought- 1.4" 6" x 1.5"
Emperor Battleship- 1" 4.5" x 1.1"
Konigsberg Battlecruiser- 1" 3.75" x 1"
Hussar Gunship- 1" 3.1" x .8"
Reiver Cruiser- 1" 3.1" x .8"
Arminius Frigate- 1" 1.75" x .25"
Saxony Corvette- 1" 1.8" x .25"
Geier Bomber- 1" 1.75" x 2.25"

I don't own any of those.

Will add when I have a moment.

I'll try to get you measurements of the Italian ships.

Ok bit of a delay, but here are the EotBS sizes. Hightxlengthxwidth

Ika 1"x4.4"x2" or 0.4"x4.4"x2"
Sokotsu 1.5"x4.2"x1.1"
War Gyro 1.6"x5.6"x2.1"
Large Walker 1.6"x2"x2"
Heavy Bomber 0.5"x2"x2"
Gunship 1"x3"x0.8"
Cruiser 1"x3.2"x0.6"
Escorts 0.5"x1.8"x0.4"
Frigates 0.6"x1.6"x0.4"
Inari 0.9"x2.9"x1.3"
Medium Tank 0.6"x1.2"x0.9"
Bombard 1"x1.2"x0.9"

Got them about as exact as I could hope it helps. Also please note the Ika measurments is not including the tentacles, the taller one is the none submerged one obviously.

Thanks, EmilCrane!

doc1234, I'll have to go through and add the EotBS stuff so I can add yours.

Sorry Balance, I'm kind of at a loss with the tables and such >< glad I could help though

Which is the 'Large Walker'?

I've added a bunch of unit names.


if anyone wants to try editing, the wiki format is pretty easy. Click 'edit' next to the section you want to modify to keep things sane, and you'll see something like this:

{| border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5" align="center" | <b>Unit</b> | <b>Height</b> | <b>Size</b> | <b>Notes</b> |- |Archimedes Class Heavy Walker | | | |-

This is the wiki formatting to start a table. Just look for the unit to add details for, and look at the three lines below it with a pipe (|) at the start of the line. The pipe indicates a table cell. In this case, the three cells after each unit title are: 1. the height; 2. the width x. length; 3. any notes.

Remember, if you do something wrong, wikis remain revisions you can go back to.

Oh the Take-Ashi sorry
