The best-laid plans of mechanics and engineers are often pilfered, and this month’s Dystopian Wars pre-orders are no exception. Thievery is afoot as the Crown and Commonwealth each deploy their own appropriated ships, commandeered to further their own firepower.

The Legends of the Crown set is sure to bring glory to a Crown fleet, introducing the highly-anticipated Nautilus to Dystopian Wars, supported by the equally renowned HMCS Tilloch Galt.

Revelling in the spoils of his greatest heist, Markov’s Prometheus is ready to take to the seas, clad in Commonwealth regalia. The sight of this Once-Enlightened vessel supporting the Commonwealth is a painful reminder of the outcome of the Hunt for the Prometheus.

These are due to be released at the end of July 2024.

Dystopian Wars

The Legends of the Crown and Markov’s Prometheus boxes offer Crown and Commonwealth players the perfect way to show off their faction’s prestige, employing the use of stolen ships to add insult to injury.

Legends of the Crown

The prototype submersible Nautilus was famously appropriated from the Crown by the daring and swashbuckling privateer Captain Rani Nimue. Her loyal and eclectic crew have adventured the globe, their tales of seeking legendary artefacts and fabulous treasures are the fodder of lurid tales that captivate all who hear them. As a mercenary, the Nautilus serves any with the coin, even the Crown who reluctantly must pay for the services of their own erstwhile submersible. 

The flagship of the Canadian Atlantic Defence Fleet, the HMCS Tilloch Galt, gained renown in action against the Imperium during their attempt on the Labrador Sea in 1873 and against the Commonwealth during the Ghosts of Midwinter in 1876. She inspires any battlefleet she fights alongside and has become a symbol of Canadian naval power. Merchant vessels making the long journey between the British Isles and Canada cheer in welcome when they come under the protection of the Tilloch Galt and her unbreakable Guardian Generator array.

This box contains:

  • 1x The Nautilus

  • 1x HMCS Tilloch Galt

Markov’s Prometheus

“The decadent and corrupt so-called ‘Enlightened’ of the world will have you believe that Helsinki Markov is a traitor. This could not be further from the truth. He is a great man who risked everything to give us the wonders of this engineering age.

“The short-sightedness of those calling themselves ‘custodians’ was anathema to him. He knew the common man would be uplifted by the machines that the Covenant of the Enlightened wanted to keep for themselves. Not a world of equality for them but singular authority engineered by their cold, unfeeling minds.

“Without the heroism of Markov, a steel cage might have been built around the world, fashioned by those greedy intellectuals. Now, everyone can access the marvels that supply power to the homes of the workers; tireless machines can take the strain in the fields and the factories to keep the Commonwealth the beacon of greatness it is known to be across the globe. We humbly give thanks to Helsinki Markov and the Ministry of Technology for their efforts in empowering the people of the Commonwealth”
