New Player Questions

By Brownmantle, in Dust Warfare

Hello!
I’ve been looking into purchasing a Dust Warfare Premium set to play, but I wanted to know something about the revised core set; what units does it come with and, if I were to purchase a balanced equivalent of SSU forces, what sets would I buy?

Concerning the new premium play mat, I really like the idea over folded paper, but can I play the core sets scenarios with the play mat?

The Website doesn't list what comes with the new Core set. Does anyone know where a game inventory of units would be for the revised core?

Revised Core Set includes these units, all of which are exclusive to the Revised Core Set and are not available separately:


Faction: Allies ( 120 )

Heroes:
Rhino (22)

----- Assault Platoon (98)
Command Section: "Hell Boys" Ranger Attack Squad (25)
1st Section: "The Hammers" Heavy Ranger Assault Squad (28)
4th Section: "Death Dealers" Ranger Weapon Squad (20)
Support: LAW M1-B "Blackhawk" (25)

Faction: Axis ( 140 )

Heroes:
Lara (29)

----- Blutkreuz Platoon (111)
Command Section: Sturmpioniere (25)
1st Section: Heavy Laser Grenadiers (35)
2nd Section: Heavy Flak Grenadiers (26)
Support: LPW I-C "Hans" (25)

I used the Force Builder at http://dust.mainecoon.net/ and made the valid platoons that the box can create.

The SSU book isn't out yet, so we don't know what the platoons will be like. Anything you purchase now you do so at your own risk - I couldn't recommend buying more than 1 of anything for now - if you bought 5 of one box and they turned out to be the Command Section for a Platoon you'd be unable to use 3 of them in 300 point games!

Huh? All the units are available separately except the two walkers.
