Empire of Marduk for Atomic Tank

Greetings Cadets!

It’s been a while since we’ve given an update on various projects. This weekend’s main project is painting the units that will be featured in the initial Imperial 7 point army. The studio army is shaping up nicely and is going to look great on the tabletop.

The main army will only feature Mardukkan infantry and vehicles. The Empire uses many auxiliary forces from vassal planets. These will be released as 5 point army Auxiliary boxes featuring two infantry units, a giant unit and a hero. Who’s ready for the Dragon Man rhinosaurs or Worm Man mega worms?

Game designer extraordinaire John Douma is beginning work on the rules and will be introducing a lot of new special rules to make the Empire fun to play (and challenging to play against!)

Players will get their first chances to play the Imperial army at FlintCon and at Adepticon.

Stay tuned for more Hydra news!

The incredibly talented Illustrator Carmen Cerra did this great caricature of Flash Gordon. Carmen has done some fabulous illustrations for all of our games. I absolutely love this latest illustration, Carmen!

INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING UPDATE

We have had 3 international packages go missing this month. These orders were shipped via Global Post or USPS First Class International. Dealing with missing packages is a huge hassle for both the Hydra crew and our customers. Effective today, we will only be shipping via UPS International to our international customers, including Canada and Mexico. The UPS International service is much faster and infinitely more reliable.

Our War Rocket demo at MichToy was a success! Our players Joel (Galacteers) and Kirill (Imperials) had a blast as they raced to collect precious Trilithium crystals scattered amongst the asteroid fields.
Kirill won the game by collecting enough Trilithium to secure a victory. Lots of awesome space carnage with two instances of mutual ship destruction! John and I had a great time today and hope to run another Learn to Play in the future!

Dan!

“I love the smell of burning metal and tiny worms in the morning. It smells like victory!”

My caster Andrew Barlow sent me photos of the production mold for the 10mm Worm Men. They are so TINY and detailed. We use pewter for small or thin models since it is more durable for tabletop gaming.

We are continuing our work on the 10mm Imperial force for Atomic Tank. We have so many good ideas that the Imperial army will have 12 product codes instead of the 10 codes for the Galacteers and Robot Legion. Who’s excited for the Imperials?

Something Wicked This Way Worms!

Caster and sculptor Andrew Barlow of Dark Platypus sent us this fantastic photo of our 10mm Worm Men, freshly molded and cast in lead-free pewter. I am so stoked to see these little guys in person! They sure look awesome, don’t they?!

The Worm Men are an auxiliary alien race serving the Empire of Marduk, and they’re ready to squirm their way onto the battlefield.

We’ll be playtesting the Imperials for Atomic Tank very soon, with a goal of releasing them in Spring 2027.
