Krysa Plague 1000pt Starter Fleet: The Vermin Tide
Unleash the Relentless Swarm of the Krysa Plague with The Vermin Tide! 🐀🌌

Take command of the Krysa Plague’s The Vermin Tide, a 1000-point starter fleet led by the ruthless Admiral Rosenratte. This rodent-like armada excels at overwhelming enemies with sheer numbers, crude yet deadly weaponry, and ferocious boarding actions. Perfect for dominating the battlespace through swarm tactics and resilience, The Vermin Tide brings the Krysa Plague’s infestive might to your tabletop, ready to overrun any foe in its path.

Fleet Composition & Tactical Overview

The Infested Core
At the heart of The Vermin Tide lies the Battleship, a hulking command vessel with a Flag Bridge, serving as Rosenratte’s seat of power. Supported by a Command Cruiser and three Improved Cruisers, this core delivers devastating firepower while soaking up enemy attacks, embodying the Krysa’s unyielding durability.

Swarm of the Plague
Three Cruisers, six Destroyers, nine Heavy Frigates, and three Frigates form the swarm, flooding the battlefield with numbers. These ships, equipped with Dimensional Flux Cannons and Crude X-Ray Lasers, overwhelm enemies through relentless assaults, while their Shield Overload trait keeps them in the fight longer than expected.

Boarding Infestation
Four Assault Ships lead the Krysa’s boarding efforts, deploying swarms of Shock Rat Tokens and Light Rat Swarm Tokens via Dropship Tokens to overrun enemy vessels. These units excel at close-quarters combat, ensuring no ship is safe from the Krysa Plague’s grasp.
