For two bleak decades the Undead reavers of Count Noctilus have plagued the oceans of the world. After each raid, the Dreadfleet disappears into its lair as quickly and silently as it appeared, far from the reach of Man. And yet there remains hope. Captain Jaego Roth of the Heldenhammer has vowed to hunt down and destroy Count Noctilus and his Undead captains once and for all. With him sail the most notorious and cunning of the pirate lords of Sartosa, each borne to battle upon a giant warship bristling with cannons, organ guns and bolt throwers. At the stroke of midnight on Geheimnisnacht, most forsaken of nights, the Heldenhammer and her companions sail into the realm of undeath known as the Galleon’s Graveyard. One by one, Count Noctilus and his vile allies move in to stop them.

Dreadfleet is a boxed game for two (or more) players that includes everything you need to make war on the turbulent seas of the Warhammer world. At your command are two fleets of ships – the Dreadfleet led by the Vampire Count Noctilus, aboard his gargantuan sea-hulk the Bloody Reaver; and the Grand Alliance commanded by the Pirate Captain Jaego Roth, who recently stole the Heldenhammer – the pride of the Imperial Fleet, and one of the largest galleons to ever sail the high seas.
As your ships engage in furious battle, it’s down to you, the fleet captain, to make important split-second decisions. Do you bring all guns to bear on the closest enemy warship, or do you sail into position for a furious broadside? What happens when the warship catches fire, or worse, the powder kegs ignite? Exactly how much punishment can your warship take before it sinks without a trace? Are those Undead seagulls or flying piranha fish? And, when all else fails, do you have the courage to ram your foe, board their ship, and engage them in a duel to the death?

The elite cavalry of the Dawnguard, destors thunder across the battlefield to smash apart enemy lines or bring down heavily armored foes. Armed with lance cannons designed specifically for their order, the destors can soften an enemy from afar with unerring blasts from their weapons and then finish the job with a crushing cavalry charge. Many times it is the thundering hooves of a destor charge that deliver victory for the Retribution.

Cassino is one of the most iconic battles of the Second World War. It was here that the battle hinged on the infantryman. While so many other battles relied on mobility and speed, Cassino was about putting one foot in front of the other and living to tell the tale. Cassino is the second book that focuses on the Italian theatre in late war. The other is Dogs and Devils, which focuses on the battles around the Anzio beachhead. Cassino looks at the forces further inland that were locked in combat for nearly six long and bloody months.

The history of the bloody fight for Cassino and the road to Rome.

• History and tactics of the Moroccan Goums, the Nisei (Japanese-American), the 91st Cavalry Reconnaissance Squadron, the 4th & 8th Indian Division, and the 2nd New Zealand Division.

• The option to field a Goum or Nisei Rifle Companies, a Dismounted Cavalry Squadron, and Indian or New Zealand rifle companies.

• History and tactics of the 1. Fallschirmjägerdivision, the 44. Reichsgrenadierdivision Hoch und Deutschmeister, and the 90. ‘Sardinien’ Panzergrenadierdivision.

• The option to field a Fallschirmjägerkompanie, a Reichsgrenadierkompanie, and a Panzergrenadierkompanie.

• Introducing Infantry Aces, the brand new escalation campaign system where you will fight for victory and glory with the heroes of Cassino. Everything you need to play is included in this 32 page section.
  

The fate of Cassino is in your hands. Will it fall and open the road to Rome to the Allies, or will the Germans continue to hold on against the onslaught?
