Ahoy me hearties! In today's Retro Read Through we are looking back at the launch of Dreadfleet, which was covered in White Dwarf issue 382, released in October 2011. This issue was pretty much entirely devoted to Dreadfleet, its just a shame that nothing else was! More on that in the video...
Dreadfleet was a naval combat game set on the high seas of the Warhammer Old World and it was packed with stunning miniatures, terrain and a very nice cloth play mat to represent the sea. White Dwarf 382 covered everything in the box, including details of each ship, tactics on how to play the game, a detailed battle report featuring the two fleets of ships in the box, and also painting guides for each and every ship, as well as the terrain and smaller auxiliary miniatures.
This is the fourth episode in the 'Retro Read Through' series, and I'll be taking a look at more old White Dwarf issues as well as old Codex books, Army Books, older rulebooks as well as various other retro publications like the Space Marine Collectors Guide and Index Astartes books etc. They might not be the most popular videos, but they are fun!
