An Arkanaut Frigate is a fearsome sight, its sleek hull and powerful endrins giving it the speed to deliver an arsenal of devastating firepower – not to mention a deadly cargo of Kharadron privateers, eager to earn their share of aether-gold by leaping into the fight. With an armoured ramming prow and enough bombs to level a small city, the Frigate is an unmatched vessel for sheer skyborne aggression.

This multipart plastic kit builds an Arkanaut Frigate, a versatile Kharadron transport and assault boat. The Frigate is armed with two aethershot carbines protruding from gun ports in its hull, two bomb racks loaded with various explosives, and a choice of turret-mounted gun on its spiked prow – a heavy sky cannon or a heavy skyhook. It boasts an experienced duardin crew – a captain stood before the ship's wheel, a sextant-wielding navigator perched in the crow's nest, and an endrineer hard at work with an oil can and hammer.

The vessel is loaded with eye-catching details – a rivet-lined hull with plenty of space for painting duardin runes, a sculpted ancestor figurehead, and portholes and doors for the passengers within. There are powerful buoyancy endrins strung with rigging, an anchor dangling from the side, and a host of pipes, vents, valves, propellers, and other mechanisms. The turret, carbines, and rudder all offer glueless assembly, allowing you to adjust their position mid-game.

This kit comprises 88 plastic components, and comes with a Citadel 120x92mm Oval Base and a 50mm ball and socket flying stem. This miniature is supplied unpainted and requires assembly – we recommend using Citadel Plastic Glue and Citadel Colour paints.
