Dust Swarm!

Hey dusters!

Apologies for the long silence, looks like sporadically will be the best I can do for now in terms of a posting schedule. Not that I'm not working on stuff but with the fluctuations in the game recently I want to wait for Gregory Withrow's update to Dust Warfare in Version II, which will feature an updated and expanded Rosies scrapyard - custom unit builder.We'll revisit the stats and rules in an update and then go on to new things.

But not that I've been doing nothing in the meantime.

- from old Mars Attacks card game
Couple of months back i saw someone playing some Alien swarms vs Axis on one of the Dust Facebook pages. I happen to love these types of Space-Dino-Bugs and have a large collection, though haven't played the game they are set in a while.

Just for laughs thought I'd whip up some dust warfare unit cards for swarm based aliens, feel free to use them to spice up your games.

Turned into a bit of a mission but got some I'd like to share.

The Swarm - Special Rules:

Swarm Consciousness: all units need to have at least one model with in Swarm Consciousness range of a unit with the Swarm Consciousness special rule, or will only be able to take a move action at the units max speed towards the closest unit with Swarm Consciousness. If no such unit is left in play the remaining units must move at maximum speed and attack the closest enemy unit. Does not Apply to units with the Ranging or Swarm Consciousness special rules.


Now just as is stated in the blog description, let me state this again now all credit and copyright to those who own and deserve it and I make no claims to the ownership of the imagery or anything nor am I making money from any of this... yada yada yada.

Anyways hope you guys like and find useful and fun. Please let me know what you guys think conceptually and stat/point wise.

As a last thought, Was wondering if there was anyone out there a collection of AT 43 Karmens, that would be willing to take and send through some photos to be used in the cards. Big prob at the moment is lack actual miniatures to divide into dust compatible teams. Think lots of 3 and 2 man Armour 4 units plus armour 3 aircraft.
