The Abyssal Dwarf Fleet Sets Sail

27th Jul 2023

Martin Thirlwell




‘On the treacherous seas of Pannithor, a menacing fleet emerged from the depths, the Abyssal Dwarfs. Forged in both darkness and pain, their vessels are as grotesque as their dark intentions. The malevolent Dwarfs navigate the waves with sinister prowess, terrorizing all who dare to oppose them. The ships engines choking everyone with the dense black smoke, billowing out the high funnels like insidious shadows, and their cursed cannons unleashing unholy power upon unsuspecting ships. As the world trembles before their might, who will confront the Abyssal Dwarf fleet and quell the darkness that threatens to engulf the seas.’

Hi folks, Martin here.

As we start to approach the Shadowed Horizons campaign in September, we have the next release for Armada that has set sail this week. The Abyssal Dwarf ships are a blend of bizarre technology and pained flesh, all combined together in order to exert their will on the seas of Pannithor!

Check back soon for even more details on the campaign and share with us what army and fleet are you going to be using.


Abyssal Dwarf Starter Fleet – AVAILABLE NOW!

The shipyards of the Abyssal Dwarfs are hellish places – sprawling factories and blazing forges belching smoke into the already black skies over Tragar. Yet only a small portion of the shipyards lie over ground. The cruel, pulsing heart of Abyssal Dwarf industry burrows deep though cliff face and mountainside, drawing power from the infernal Abyss itself.

Set sail from Tragar and forge a new sea power with the Abyssal Dwarf Starter Fleet:

  • 1 x Angkor-Class Warship: a tough and nightmarish foe, equipped with a colossal Hellmortar
  • 1 x Infernox-Class Warship: an assault ship with boarding chains and a crew of Blacksoul Marines
  • 1 x Katsuchan Bombard: an armoured support ship with a spear-tipped explosive rocket
  • All the cards and bases you need for your miniatures

 


Abyssal Dwarf Booster Fleet – AVAILABLE NOW!

The dwarfs and their underlings toil day and night at the behest of the Overmasters, creating ever-more powerful vessels. These monstrous behemoths of steel and brass loom from the waterline like Abyssals themselves, covered in leering faces, and festooned with infernal weaponry, spewing fire and smoke.

Requesting naval reinforcements! The Abyssal Dwarf Booster Fleet will bring you both greater numbers and tactical variety:

  • 1 x Angkor-Class Warship: you obviously can’t have too many Hellmortars…
  • 1 x Decimator Support Ship: a fearsome vessel with high crew capacity and incendiary weaponry
  • 2 x Blacksoul Frigates: the swiftest vessels in the fleet, deployed as forward scouts and hunters
  • All the cards and bases you need for your miniatures


Abyssal Dwarf Hellfane Battleship – AVAILABLE NOW!

The Abyssal Dwarfs’ answer to the Dreadnoughts of their Imperial cousins, Hellfanes are a floating blasphemy against the Shining Ones – vessels powered by anguished souls and designed to strike terror into the hearts of the enemy.

It’s time to call in the big guns! This kit contains parts to build either the Hellfane, or a special named variant:

  • 1 x Hellfane-Class Battleship: a floating metal fortress, with a deadly and malign arsenal.
  • Parts to build ‘The Arbiter of Pain’: a heavily-armed vessel, capable of deadly ramming attacks.
  • All the cards and bases you need for this miniature.


Abyssal Dwarf Fliers – AVAILABLE NOW!

Swarms of Gargoyles are often seen following the fleets of the Abyssal Dwarfs, waiting for their chance to pluck poor souls from the seas or off the deck of their ship. Caged Gun Worms are bizarre fusions of giant, winged maggot and infernal technology – a perfect accompaniment to the steam powered vessels that trawl the seas beneath them.

  • 1 x Gargoyle Swarm
  • 1 x Gun-Worm
  • All the bases and cards you need for your miniatures


Until we meet in another far-flung port, may your sails be tight, your winds favourable and your adventures plentiful.
