Spartan Games: March New Releases – So Many Spaceships!
March is quickly approaching and Spartan Games is cranking out a lot of new goodies for Firestorm Armada! It’s Destroyer, Frigate & Corvette Month!
FADF17 Dindrenzi Federation Destroyer Group
Eschewing heavy armour plating and supplementary weapons systems in favour of fitting the largest arcbolt pattern rail gun possible, this squadron of mobile artillery slams ferrous slugs through their prey at tremendous velocities and with incredible accuracy. Wading through such an unrelenting bombardment, the enemy Fleet will be unable to mount any effective resistance before the Dindrenzi force hammers them flat.
Contains: 3 highly detailed resin Trident Class Destroyers. Models supplied unpainted and unassembled.
FADF18 Dindrenzi Federation Frigate & Corvette Group
These light vessels each provide a different but equally important supporting role to a Dindrenzi Fleet. The Thraex takes a similar form to its larger cousins and fights accordingly. Its central rail gun can shatter vessels of equivalent size with ease, or wear down larger targets with repeated volleys. Meanwhile, the versatile gun racks of the nimble Sgian make them an ideal rear guard or flanking force.
Contains: 4 Sgian Class Corvettes and 3 Thraex Class Frigates. Highly detailed resin and pewter models. Models supplied unpainted and unassembled.
FATA17 Terran Alliance Destroyer Group
Aptly demonstrating the destructive potential of Terran nuclear weaponry, the Artemis Squadrons adopt a prime firing position and then wait patiently for the enemy to move in to range. Advanced countermeasures make targeting an Artemis impossible whilst it lies in wait. Then, a single volley will blaze nuclear fire through the heart of a dense formation, annihilating the target with raw force and damaging many others in a surge of radiation.
Contains: 3 highly detailed resin Artemis Class Destroyers. Models supplied unpainted and unassembled.
FATA18 Terran Alliance Frigate Group
Advancing under unrelenting torpedo barrages from a Squadron of Armsmen hidden behind a distant asteroid field disrupts and weakens even the most determined enemy. When followed up by a close range assault from a full Squadron of Missionary Frigates, turrets and broadsides launching volleys of crushing projectiles or burning lasers, no foe will be left standing.
Contains: 4 Missionary Class Frigates & 4 Armsmen Class Frigates. Highly detailed resin and pewter models. Models supplied unpainted and unassembled.
FAAP17 Aquan Prime Destroyer Group
Although not as swift as most Aquan Commanders expect from their vessels, the Stingrayís broadside laser banks can sear through hulls at impressive distances. Employed on the flanks of a Fleet, they shield themselves with stealth technology whilst blunting any offensive drive that threatens the Aquan force. Then, in the later stages of a battle, they turn their weapons on the largest prey, operating in concert with the Fleet to eliminate the most valuable targets.
Contains: 3 highly detailed resin Stingray Class Destroyers. Models supplied unpainted and unassembled.
FAAP18 Aquan Prime Frigate & Corvette Group
This box set contains two full Squadrons, one of Snapper Class Corvettes and one of Chimaera Class Frigates. Both Squadrons grant fast moving offensive punch to Fleets of the Aquan Sebrutan. The Chimaera spears fearsome cutting lasers from every surface to engage targets in multiple arcs, whilst the vast shoal of Snapper Corvettes dodges through fire in to point blank range, before unleashing a swarm of punishing torpedoes and speeding away to safety.
Contains: 6 Snapper Class Corvettes and 4 Chimaera Class Frigates. Highly detailed resin and pewter models. Models supplied unpainted and unassembled.
FASC17 Sorylian Collective Destroyer Group
Unusually for Sorylian vessels, the Kestros mount powerful, far reaching rail drivers down their central spine, enabling these ships to deliver punishing strikes from across the battle zone. Able to lie in wait, undetectable by enemy sensors until there are ready to unleash their firepower, the Destroyers can time their deadly salvo to tear holes through the enemy formation whilst the rest of the Fleet swings in to bring their ferocious broadsides to bear.
Contains: 3 highly detailed resin Kestros Class Destroyers. Models supplied unpainted and unassembled.
FASC18 Sorylian Collective Frigate & Corvette Group
Agile, hard to target and operating in large packs to multiply their firepower up to devastating levels, these light craft are a vital component of a Sorylian Fleet. Using their incredible speed to drive up the flanks and dart out of enemy firing lanes, these Squadrons are used to encircle the foe to tear into their vulnerable aft engine sections and leave them with nowhere to run.
Contains: 5 Plumbata Class Corvettes and 5 Reaper Class Frigates. Highly detailed resin and pewter models. Models supplied unpainted and unassembled.
FATD17 The Directorate Destroyer Group
Employing every advanced anti-detection technology available to the shipwrights of the Directorate, the Nemesis stalk their prey in pairs. Skirting the edges of an engagement, they are all but invisible to targeting sensors and, unopposed, they are free to focus their deadly batteries of plasma turrets on distant foes. Precise cuts are incised through the hulls of key vessels, aimed to sever power cores, knock out engines and leave the enemy helpless and foundering.
Contains: 4 highly detailed resin Nemesis Class Destroyers. Models supplied unpainted and unassembled.
FATD18 The Directorate Frigate & Drone Group
Striking out with hull-boiling plasma turrets from within the core of the Directorate Fleet, the Liquidators are equally adept at combining their fire to burst cruisers apart or thinning the ranks of lighter vessels with independent salvoes. The entirely automated Hostilities meanwhile shut down the systems of important enemy vessels with assault torpedoes loaded with complex viruses and vicious combat robots.
Contains: 4 Hostility Class Drones and 4 Liquidator Class Frigates. Highly detailed resin and pewter models. Models supplied unpainted and unassembled.
FATR17 The Relthoza Destroyer Group
Lurking, completely concealed, the Venom Destroyers wait until the last moment before springing their ambush. When an enemy has strayed into striking distance, they reveal their presence with an unending torrent of nanite-infused shards. Able to inflict brutal damage on targets in several firing arcs at once, an unwary foe that manoeuvres their fleet too close will not survive long after discovering their mistake.
Contains: 4 highly detailed resin Venom Class Destroyers. Models supplied unpainted and unassembled.
FATR18 The Relthoza Frigate Group
This box set contains two full Squadrons of Relthoza Frigates, one of the Nidus Class and one of the Widow Class, along with the SRS Tokens which the Nidus Class can bring to battle. Screened by a cloak of sensor disrupting Relthoza vessels, these lighter vessels form a formidable picket against any enemy which tries to outmanoeuvre the Relthoza Fleet. The Nidus Class also bring a small complement of Short Range Spacecraft, either additional assault craft to inflict more damage or interceptors to thicken the Relthoza defences.
Contains: 4 Nidus Class Frigates, 4 Widow Class Frigates and 1 Large SRS Token. Highly detailed resin and pewter models. Models supplied unpainted and unassembled.
