Is this finally a way to easily make beautiful wargaming tables?

Matthew discusses his journey in making gaming tables, and the pros and cons to all the solutions out there.

Nice to get this recap of how you've made your tables through the years!
I still remember following the old table tutorial you had and making my own wooden table with sand glued to it😂

[gregobobotto]

I so totally agree with you: an immersive table is so much more important to me than the miniatures.
I can get my kicks simply by looking at a great table, visualizing the battle taking place. 😅

Looks awesome. $1200 for an unpainted set is sky high.

When Adam (from green Leaf terrain) was in Melbourne back in 2008-2009, he used to hang out at Viv's old gaming store, The Battle Bunker. He, Viv and Scott Reid used to make great terrain and gaming tables together, many of which can be found at various clubs in Melbourne, including Axes and Ales.

I’m 💯 in agreement! Models are important having an immersive well put together table is so much more. It lets you really get into the game.

I love this. I’ve been having a blast making my own terrain. I’m using the nice box for indomitus cut to shape as the base. I use hot glue to attach any styrofoam to the base. Works with 3D printed ruins aswell. Then Grout mixed with pva glue and water and paint of your choice such as tan for sand or grey for concrete. This Seals the foam and while is still wet you can add a nice dusting of choice to add basing. Grass or actual sand rocks. Moss vines etc. Fun easy way to craft some terrain. I’ll use a standard gaming mat under

Perfect timing, I just had my first FDM printer delivered and also spent loads of time/money building a game board out of wood/foam. All of the problems mentioned in the video I had experienced first hand. I will be trying these out in the coming weeks for sure.

got into this hobby about a year and a half ago. I find myself making terrain instead of painting my minis .

[christianpearse]

Although its' awesome in both concept and finish, I couldn't deal with all of the joining lines between tiles!

[jacoblobodinsky]

Ha i just backed this yesterday and im glad you guys did a video so i can see what it look likes

[tnterica]

Great video! Thank you for sharing your recommendations :) Looking to share some of these tips with our wargaming community!

[bryal]

Sold me on the kickstarter. Nothing works better than having a guy talk about what they love and Matt loves the hobby!

[rub-al-khali]

Me too! I've always been more fascinated toward terrain.

[cinocefalo]

At least, I’m not alone with the fascination with the terrain and escenery

[josephaulisio]

I’ll stick to making my own .
Why not, if i have the creative ability, time and desire-

[connorjensen]

I'm the same, the scenic terrain is as important or more important than the models. As a warmachine player, lemme tell you, its rough.

So let me ask this: HOW modular are they? There's one thing to print them out based on something you laid out or a predesigned table, but the modular-ness I'm aiming for is to have the tiles line up in several different ways to help avoid repetition. I want to see a tile with say 8x8 grid and if half of one edge is elevated 2" then it's able to line up with any other opposing tile at that height. Is that the case? I mean you'd still need quite a few tile options, but it opens it up quite a bit if you have that level of connectivity.

[thelchking]

I agree on terrain tables in general - but those tiles look terrible. Total illusion breaking.

[ironmaidenrocks]

Full table of terrain can be yours for the low low price of $700! Yikes

[imperiumvoxnetwork]

I love terrain so much too!!! So immersive! A must have for a real good looking game! ;)
