Covenant of Antarctica - Atticus Medium Walker

For the Covenant of Antarctica/Enlighted faction in Dystopian Wars, I have painted 24 Atticus medium walkers. They were painted the same as my Xenophon small walkers with the addition of Arcane blue for the frount window, no yellow, and cheap black for the undercarriage. There are no rules for them in the third edition of the game.

In the second edition, they had a turn radius of zero, good AA, fixed foward and port/stbd guns, and can be deployed in units of two to three models.

Covenant of Antarctica - Socrates Bombard

This is the Socrates bombard for the Covenant of Antarctica/Enlighted faction in Dystopian Wars. I have painted 16 of these support tanks. They were painted the same as my Xenophon small walkers. There are no rules for them in the third edition of the game.


These bombards have superb range, can turn in place, and come two to three to a squadron. Their weapon is fixed fire but not a problem with their turning ability.

Covenant of Antarctica - Orpheus Drone Controller Tank

For the Covenant of Antarctica/Enlighted faction in Dystopian Wars, I have painted nine Orpheus Drone Controller tanks. They were painted the same as my Xenophon small walkers with the addition of Arcane Blue for the windows. There are no rules for them in the third edition of the game.


In the second edition, they had a turn radius of zero, decent broadsides could launch one SAS fighter each, and could grant excellent abilities for its SAS squadrons. One of these can be attached to any non-small unit.

Covenant of Antarctica - Janus Infantry Portal Walker

 For the Covenant of Antarctica/Enlighted faction in Dystopian Wars, I have painted three Janus Infantry portal walkers. They were painted the same as my Xenophon small walkers. There are no rules for them in the third edition of the game.


In the second edition, they had a turn radius of zero, no weapons, and are elusive and small targets. One of these can be attached to any armoured unit. They can set up two portals to allow tiny units to move between them, with some risk determined by a die roll.

Covenant of Antarctica - Colossus Walkers

These 12 Colossus walkers are for the Covenant of Antarctica faction, known as the Enlightened in the third edition of the Dystopian Wars game.


They are painted the same as the Xenophon small walkers. They are quite powerful at point blank range but slow. Otherwise similar stats to the Xenophon walker.

Covenant of Antarctica - Xenophon Small Walker

These 44 tiny models are Xenophon small walkers for the Covenant of Antarctica faction of Dystopian Wars, known as the Enlightened in the third edition of the game


The models were primed black, rough brush of cheap silver paint. Metal then lightly drybrushed with Privateer Press Radiant Platinum. The bronze parts were painted GW Retributor Armour (I ran out of the PP Rhulic Gold I used for my Naval forces) and entire model washed with GW Nuln Oil. Cygnar Yellow used on the bulbous tops of the walkers and the inside of the engine funnels painted PP Necrotite Green. The base was painted cheap silver around the edge, inside painted cheap dark brown, GW gravel affixed with craft glue, then twice Gal Force snow was applied in clumps. Because the models are so small, I put the flocks on so that clear channels were in frount of the model to the edge of the base. Even though they have a turn radius of zero, it helps to know where they are pointed.


In the older edition of the game, they had great movement, decent forward firing gun, tough, and deployable in squadrons of two to five models. They are also all terrain and hard to hit.
