Terrain Tuesday - The Ones You’ve Never Heard About

On Tuesday I like to showcase some inspirational terrain, things that bring out battlefields to life! All part of forging that narrative.

But what about the not so well known "other" battlefield ruins? The ones we know are trenches, defense lines, impact craters. But what about?:

The Humble Forcefield Generator:

This can be a piece of terrain that you place on the table. I had no clue it existed, but, if the pieces are within 6" of each other, they make a wall of impassable terrain... and any shooting through them will confer a 3+ invulnerable save! Awesome...

So, I dont know know about you, but these seem mighty appealing when faced off against a shooty army. I like it.

Cheers!

Terrain Tuesday: On The Table

Welcome to the tuesday post. I am now on my way to my Brothers wedding. In true form I am trying to keep to schedule! So, Jason was able to drop off something special for me on sunday. An Imperial bastion. Sweet. I can't wait to build and paint it up. It will play a part in the upcoming campaign at Sir Games A Lot! (as players will be able to requisition its use).

Any ideas as to how to model it? Im thinking of leaving it modular to make the bastion as well as a smaller one story bunker. And I will also be measuring its dimensions carefully so that I can recreate a Dark Eldar bastion with the same proportions but in a different design.

Well. Thanks a lot for tuning in. Any thoughts?

Cheers! Skari - out

#miniaturemonday - Assault Ram

Welcome to a new week. On #miniaturemonday I like to showcase a model that has inspired me and thats why I share it. This one looks really cool! The caestus assault ram, a transport torpedo ship. (As I play BFG, assault ships are for boarding other ships so this hits the spot, quite literally).

Well. Here is to a great week of content, gaming and more.

Do you have a great pic you would like me to show the world? Sent it to my email

Cheers! Skari - out.

Terrain Tuesday - On A Wednesday - Landmarks

I have been thinking of ideas for some scenarios to do during the campaign. These would be multi player games that would involve all the players involved in the campaign. All fighting for themselves and trying to gain some sort of personal advantage within the campaign map itself. Now, the main missions in the crusade of fire campaign are played on some really cool custom tables (like the spaceport) or the zone mortalis boards from FW.

So, maybe I need to make a few terrain bits to use in these special missions. And I was searching the interwebs for some inspiration, here is a cool pyrammid maybe I could makes something big, with an entrance way to a subterranean table and this would then have the gamers fight in the catacombs or something.

Do you have any ideas that I could use?

Thanks for tuning in!
