Dust Tactics brings this richly imagined world to your gaming table with a choice of two ways to play: you can play Dust Tactics on gridded game boards, or Dust Tactics Battlefield on a gaming table with three-dimensional terrain. Both games use the same rules and unit cards, allowing you to play whichever way you want.
Dust models are unique; they bridge the gap between wargaming miniatures and highly detailed plastic model kits. Each Dust model is expertly pre-assembled and spray-primed in a single faction-specific undercoat colour. Even if you don’t like to paint, the models are ready straight out of the box.
