Description: Prussian Empire (PE) KS SetDystopian Wars - 1/1200th ScaleThis set of models was never released. The set includes: Gustav Class Bombard Monitor (Large Class) (1 model supplied) The Gustav Class Bombard Monitor provides a stable naval firing platform for one of the most terrifying artillery pieces available to the Prussian Empire; the PAK-800 KYC, often referred to by its gun crews as the Todesengel, or Angel of Death. The PAK-800 KYC was primarily developed for ground operations by the Reichswehr, transported on railway tracks and used as a siege weapon on the Eastern Front against static fortifications and large, slow-moving targets like the infamous Russian and Commonwealth Land Dreadnoughts. Even the mightiest opponents can be shattered by a sustained pounding from these enormous weapons. The Gustav is based upon an older pre-Sturginium Age blue-water cargo barge, but the design has been heavily recast to turn it into a true warship. The massive bombard (dragged on to the ship by its own train!) itself is of limited utility at short ranges, and so the vessel mounts clusters of Tesla projectors fore and aft for close defence. In an unexpected move by the Teutonic Order engineers, the Gustav additionally fields experimental Tesla Torpedo launchers in lieu of standard broadsides. These unique munitions are intended to dissuade submerged enemies that might seek to engage the vessel prior to its main ordnance being fired. The impact of a live high-yield electrical generator on a fully submerged ship is dramatic indeed. The sheer energy discharge is capable of twisting open solid steel plates and burning crewmembers to a crisp even deep within the enemy’s hull as many metal surfaces temporarily becomes ‘live’! Brandtaucher Class Submarine (Medium Class) (3 models supplised) The Brandtaucher or Fire-Diver submersible is a cutting-edge underwater attack craft newly in service with the Prussian Empire’s Iron Fleets. Entering service in late 1873, initially with the northern fleet detachments, it is the spiritual successor of the infamous craft used during the London Raid. This aggressive warship is purposely designed to employ stealth to approach the enemy undetected, before unleashing a storm of gunnery and elite assault troops. Its brace of forward cannons hammer the enemy with explosives and electrical burst munitions, before a wave of crack Luftlancers and aquanauts pours into the shattered target to overwhelm its defenders. Brandtaucher squadrons, nicknamed ‘Packs’ by Iron Fleet commanders, specialise in surprise assaults, known with grim humour among their elite officer corps as ‘shock therapy’. Stalking a choice target, their captains patiently wait until the right moment to rain hell upon the hapless foe, before executing a clean getaway. And should any pursuit be forthcoming, the lethal clusters of mines left in the submarines’ wake are more than enough to dissuade all but the most foolhardy. Lahn Class Destroyer (Small Class) (5 models supplied) Operating a considerable distance from home base, as some of their flotillas did in the Caribbean, and latterly along the African coast, brought home the need for swift anti-air cover for the Iron Fleets. The Prussian answer to this problem is the Lahn, the latest of the Imperial Naval command’s light but well-armed destroyer designs. Utilising the deadly Speerschleuder electro-lance launcher and powerful Tesla turbine engines, the Lahn is a deadly hunter. Commanded by self-reliant captains, Lahn squadrons are given a free-roaming role in naval orders of battle, seeking out and destroying enemy aerial threats of all kinds. These models come from my VAST collection of Dystopian Wars models. Please contact me to find out what else I have available. For those who do not know me, I founded Spartan Games created the Dystopian Wars tabletop game and was in charge of creating every single model for the game.For clarity, these are original Dystopian Wars models which means they are 1/1200th scale in size, which is the actual scale the original game was created to support in its gameplay. The models are not retail product. They are models specifically made for my personal colleciton by my former manufacturing team. Custom Bundles Sometimes combining items on eBay is a joyless task. So I am often asked to create custom bundles for people, which allows me to easily manage the P&P in a cost effective way. As my collection is so vast, even if have not got a model listed I will very likely have it in a box somewhere, so if tyou want a model to finish your collection, or want to build a new fleet to play just ask away and I will see what I can find in a box.Shipping I will always pack models well and I send signed for in the UK or international tracked. And apologies to overseas customers, I know shipping costs have increaed globallly, which is why I think many eBayers ask me to create custom bundles so that they can spread P&P across multiple items in one go.
