First I would like to wish all the visitors to the cupboard a very merry Xmas and happy new year, and as it is the season of giving, any visitor to the cupboard can email me for a copy of the Death Match rules if their interested. Simply email wargamesterrainworkshop@yahoo.co.uk with Rules Please in the title and will email you a set straight away.
" FROM THE GROUND UP "
In Steve's last post you will have seen one of our gaming boards in use, the cobblestone board, while Steve was visiting he picked that one up and got a close look at many others, and remarked at how much detail we managed to get being in fibreglass compared to the plastic ones that are available from other companies. We have spent a lot of time developing this process so we can offer a great base for gaming needs.
So what do we cover, we have basic flat boards that have texture to make it easy for painting, and ones with small and large rock formations on (the large one will shortly be removed while we improve the rock texture)
Flat Board
River Bend with Oriental Scenery
Beach Head
Now all the features are designed so you can place them in multiple set up's, for instance the lake could be fitted with three other lake sections to make a larger lake in the centre of the board, or alternatively it could be used next to the beach head to change the shape of the shoreline.Our most recent boards are post apocalyptic road sections, these are my personal favourites
Straight Road
Cross Roads
Would like to make more sections for these at some point including a bend and T junction.All the boards mentioned so far are 2' x 2' square, but we do a 3' x 3' square flat board as well.
Last up we also make a fantasy football pitch that features actual dugouts and raised numbered squares to make it harder to cheat with your counters !
Cheers Dave
Now I DIDN`T know about that football pitch board Dave. Does it come in one piece (as a one piece purchase) or two, and are there rules to go with that fantasy football game? I find myself quite take by it I must say hehe
Having seen a number of these boards first hand I can attest to the fact they look ruddy marvelous, and would aesthetically enhance any game set up you care to mention.
The football pitch is a single piece that comes with counters that have lips on them so they fit over the numbered tiles, no rules as there are many games already available out there, I myself play a certain game by GW on mine.
Glad we impressed, one thing I forgot to mention in the article is the strength of the boards, I can physically stand on one without causing any damage
Aaaah yes I understand about the rules, was just wondering. This is intriguing me more and more.
Have a sports game I want to do but it's more of a futuristic style one and would need a totally different board
As for Salute of the Jugger, wow wouldn`t that make a stunningly cool game? Just imagine all the teams and personalities you could create. Weird isn`t it, I`ve never been into games but I absolutely love them in movies
Good you found a range of models suitable for the WW II
A very interesting post Dave and WELCOME HOME. Are you all set for Christmas?
Good to be back Hils, had a great time if somewhat painful, but missed you all and glad to be back in my comfort zone
{{{but missed you all and glad to be back in my comfort zone}}}
awwwwwww, hey its great to have you back.
Unusual rodents you say ? Nope not ringing any bells ! ROFL you've been chatting to Steve and I haven't forgotten the murderous ape, just clearing some of the backlog on the desk and should be on it, if you've got a pose and look in mind don't forget to send pictures
And the 'rodents of unusal size' was a reference to 'The Princess Bride', so I have no idea what the two of you are cooking up. I'm intrigued now...
I may have a crack at sketching the 'murderous ape', just to see what I can come up with...
