The Bloody Reaver was created by Count Noctilus himself. From his mystical realm, he used powerful sorcery to bind the wreckage of the ships he found there, to forge a warship of staggering proportions with which to dominate the seas and drown the mortal world in blood. Miniature Review The…

Previously known as the Stormbreaker, the cadaverous warship now known as the Shadewraith rotted away long ago, yet its essence still clings to the mortal world. Shunned by the moon and the sea alike, it bears a terrible stigma, for the dread vessel floats above the waves as if Manann himself…

Even by the standards of the Undead fleets of Nehekhara, King Amanhotep's warship the Curse of Zandri is a strange and wondrous craft. It is propelled through the waters by hundreds of skeletal oarsmen, undying soldiers whose strength is drawn from the tides of magic so that they will never tire…

The Black Kraken, Tordrek Hackhart's ingenious creation, really captures the spirit of a terrifying sea creature - if anyone could build such a metallic behemoth, then it would be a crazed Chaos Dwarf Engineer. The articulated tentacles lend a sense of the sinister to what is already an esoteric…

An enormous cadaver the size of a Skaven underwarren, the sea-monster's insides have become a maze of crude scaffold and pitted brass spheres, each of which buzzes with tainted warp lightning. It is this fell energy that sustains the crew and powers the crackling warpstone weaponry bound to the…

Miniature Review Most of the boats come with its own auxiliary. In most cases it's a small ship, but as I want to paint them together with the main ships I won't cover them here. That leave two miniatures, the Grimnir's Thunder's Dirigible and the Seadrake's Dragon. Both are fairly simple…

Miniature Review To continue on with avoiding the boats I painted all the playing pieces. The Wind Gauge token has a lot of great detail on it, and is completely different on both sides. The Ship's Wheels are only one sided but again look really nice, with the text and skeleton captain adding a lot…

Miniature Review The natural follow on from painting the islands seemed to be the islands. The rocks look the same as expected, as do most of the shipwrecks. The only different piece is the dwarven shipwreck. It's a pretty small piece with a few runes, and some barnacles to add some extra detail…

Having worked on a few Space Wolves, I started to feel bad at the number of old board games I still have looking at me unpainted. I decided that before expanding the army too much, as it will likely never stop, I should paint at least one more now. Dreadfleet was one of the older ones and is…
