      Stunning piece of terrain. Was it fun to play on? Or did the board overly constrain movement?

      It was a ton of to play on. Also played 3 games on that thing and while there were movement penalties to most of the terrain it just made the tactical decisions more challenging. I had a blast. :)

      I would like to hear about you actually playing Malifaux :D

      Er.. “mm” scale should be read “Millimeter” Scale. As in 10-15 Millimeter scale, or 25-35 Millimeter Scale.

    Terrain, Terrain, Terrain 

    Next month I’m holding a Warmachine/Hordes birthday event. To prepare for this I’m building up some terrain. Here are some trees that I’m working on.

    GF9 Battlefield in a Box Large and Small Hills 

    I picked this up lat year from my local game shop. Very much worth it as these were only 20 bucks for the large hill and 20 bucks for the set of 2 small hills.

    Terrain Guy Game Mat 

    I bought this mat from http://www.theterrainguy.com. Here’s a video of the map. I like it very much and works very well as a portable gaming table solution.

    Sabol Designs SD-Combat Mat 

    Just got the Sabol Designs SD-Combat Mat in the mail courtesy of The WarStore. It’s a pretty heavy mat that is made out of a durable material that is similar to what computer mouse pads are made up but a bit grainier. Not too sure what it is.

    Here are some pictures so you can see for yourself.

    Imperial Sector Update 

    Built up a total of 5 structures from the Imperial Sector terrain set. I must say you can a lot of bang for your buck with this one.

      Do you plan on putting any colored panes in the windows or leaving them empty? I’ve thought about getting some clear colored plexies to bring more color to the miniatures, plus it will eliminate some of that 5th edition LOS issues: “I can see your ____ through the window, so I can shoot it!”

    • Larkin Vain 1:58 pm on July 1, 2008 Permalink | Reply

      I’m not to sure… from what I’ve heard the 4+ cover saves would help. If anything me and my opponent could always just declare them solid :)

    • Miniature Peddler 5:23 am on July 3, 2008 Permalink | Reply

      Are you going to use these also with your Iron Kingdom stuff (damaged or destroyed Menoth city) or are they too chock full of GW symbology?

    • Larkin Vain 7:34 am on July 3, 2008 Permalink | Reply

      I don’t know. I would prefer separate Menoth terrain. Maybe that’s a project I’ll work on sometime this year.

    GW Bug: Imperial Sector 

    With all the hype around the release of Warhammer 40,000 5th edition, I’ve been getting bit by the GW bug. Today I picked up the Imperial Sector boxset from my local game shop. It’s a huge and heavy kit. It was either that or a Space Marine battle force. I think I will wait till September to start my Space Marine force.

     
    • Miniature Peddler 4:56 am on June 27, 2008 Permalink | Reply

      Yes, the building kits from GW are massively heavy; lots of plastic crammed into their boxes. I must say that they are one of the best deals that they put out.

    • Larkin Vain 7:14 am on June 27, 2008 Permalink | Reply

      Yep. I’m tempted to get a second box down the road. Just gotta figure out what to base them on. MDF, or something easy to cut.

      I got my imperial sector kit from Games day ’09 and i took it home to assemble it. I used the cover to a 3 ring binder to mount it on. its light and the paper pocket makes a handy hand strap for on handed carrying. its stiff but, able to cut it. just a thought.

    Red Blok Terrain Work In Progress 

    Got most of the general work done on my Red Blok Terrain set. What I have here are two command structures (possibly one is a communications structure), a pair of water containers and a power generator. This is supposed to be a modular Red Blok base that is dropped in sections in areas where Red Blok forces need a quick command post. Just need to do the detail work on these guys.

    Terrain Inspirations 

    While I was at Wal*Mart with my daughter today I got some inspirations for terrain for AT-43. I started picking this up left and right to see what kind of hodge-podge terrain creation I could make. Here’s what I bought. Hopefully in the next couple days it will turn out to be decent looking terrain.
