Here are some first shots of some terrain that I am working on.
Initial designs by Steve 'Elk101'
None of the pieces on this layout are glued together, you can glue if you want for speed of set up, or you can leave unglued so it all flat packs away.
Many, many more pieces in the pipeline together with a range of furniture and fittings to match.

Essentially the idea was to create a kit of parts that could be used to create a colony set up, a Citi-Block interior, a spaceship interior, an underground base, etc. It was based on what I wanted for my own games but Chris has come up with some great improvements and additions. It's obviously flat as that's the nature of the material but the idea of the surface lines is that they provide a modicum of relief, a guide for painting differentiation, or a guide for further embellishments in card, plasticard strips, or balsa, etc. The addition of a few squares of card, plastic or acrylic in the wall sections would make it 'pop' more. These could all be designed in, but as Chris explained to me it's all additional laser time and additional cost.
I'd add that this was originally just my own pet project but Chris has been extremely enthusiastic about it and taken it beyond my original ideas. I know mdf terrain isn't to everyone's taste but personally I'd be keen to game on this.
-
I like this very much.
-
Great. Could use them. For SW I would take more ice design
-
really cool scenery!!! :o :o :o :o
Keep posting more info about that!!
-
This is just what I've been waiting for. Looks like it'll be ideal for my long-planned "1970s moonbase"
-
Colour me interested.
-
Nice!
The detailing really does bring in another dimension and, as you say, easy to add more 'bits' to it for even more realism.
8) 8) 8)
The only down side is that those pictures are rather distracting as my pile of SW bendies is calling to me for a wash and spruce up....DAMMIT!
>:D >:D
-
It only took about 2 hours one evening to Army Painter dip and re-base on clear bases 74 minis which is enought to get started with SW gaming using Pulp Alley or 7TV for example.
I'm hoping to get initial sets costed by Monday.

Do you use the Crooked Dice-Miniatures as figures??? I tink about using them for cylones from the old galactica-show...
-

A lot of CD stuff, yes (astronauts, moonbase crew, timelift security, scientists) plus any other vaguely 1970s-ish "clean and shiny" sci-fi I can find ... which are few and far between, it must be said.
-
Out of interest, what sort of playing size do people want? I would like at least a 3' x 3' layout for an Aliens game, Judge Dredd and zombie/PA.
-
I'm definitely in, since I've been batting around the idea of a sci-fi successor to Shoot N' Skedaddle, and I wanted modular stuff so I could simulate space ship boarding actions etc. If I were selling them, I'd sell them in a number of smaller packages...a couple rooms each for a reasonable cost - let the end consumer decide how big he wants to do.
Basically a few rooms to a pack...and a couple packs of different hallways (floors of different sizes/shapes). Eventually perhaps even some accessory packs (a bridge, interior furniture, engine room gubbins, a jail area, etc.
PS: What's the system for holding the doors up? Just small tabs of MDF?
EDIT: I was just looking at your kits/walls/doors...I'd definitely do random rooms but create a label/name for each type of door. For example, a small door might be Door A, and a large door might be Door D. That way players can glance at kits "hmmm, this is a room with two Door A's..." and know how to buy the kits to match up with whatever they've purchased.
-
You've pretty much hit the nail on the head Elbows. I wanted a system that I could create whatever I wanted with rather than what the manufacturer said I could make. The question about size of set up was more to do with overall size and associated cost. I was, for example, interested in one of the card system Kickstarters for sci-fi corridors but the cost of a decent sized set up put me off. I then saw a few mdf ones but they weren't what I wanted as they were corridors with rooms that seemed to replicate Space Hulk rather than allowing for the sort of layout I wanted. My original plan was to draw it up and build it out of foamboard but once I had the drawings I asked around about getting it laser cut. People are exceptionally busy though and it wasn't until a fortuitous discussion with Chris at BLAM after Mason had mentioned it to him that things developed.
-
Very cool...I do hope there are some skinny claustrophobic corridors planned to add to it (ventilation shafts, service hallways etc.). Can't wait to see where this goes.
I'd also love to see a few angled pieces (namely some slightly v-shaped rooms so we can put the nose on a ship, or tail of a ship etc.).
-
You can make 60mm wide long corridors with it and even add vents in at various points. That's already been designed and cut. I think Chris is going to design some stairs but a lift or ventilation shaft would be cool. I like the slope idea too.
-
Any idea about the Release-Date?
-
:o :o :o I'm certainly interested in seeing more of this!
-
I can see that people are very interested in this so I am hoping to get some pieces released early this week. I will probably start off with a couple of sets and frets of individual pieces to add to them. I am very excited about this project if you are coming to Hammerhead you should be able to see it in action as we are putting on a Star Wars game in colaboration with Crooked Dice. I have a big list of extra pieces I want to make including lifts, stairs, gantries, furnishings & set dressings, double height pieces for hanger bays etc. I hope to have a few more photos to share later today.
-
... if you are coming to Hammerhead you should be able to see it in action as we are putting on a Star Wars game in colaboration with Crooked Dice.
With luck, a following wind and appropriate training from a little green bloke in a swamp, I am hoping to be your designated "Demo Monkey" for that game. Which means I get to repeatedly play with the toys. Hooray for me!
If you're up for suggestions on expansion for this range, my vote goes for "anything that looks like it came out of Moonbase Alpha". Combining your stuff with some of Ainsty's sci-fi bits-and-pieces will be just what I've been after for ages. :-)
-
Hi Morgan, That's great news. I got an email from Karl to that effect earlier this morning. I think the game will be a lot of fun. I'm not so familiar with 'Moonbase Alpha' do you have any links to some images you can share. Was it a TV series I missed in my youth?

Chris, what were you up to back then? Were you wandering the hills, a piece of straw between your teeth, dreaming about IT and pyramids?
Space 1999 was a great TV series with lots of cardboard sets, models suspended from strings and OTT acting. Like Dr. Who of the period, it was a wondrous thing to behold.
Happy New Year, Chris,
James
-
Hi James, and Happy New Year to you too.
I'm not quite sure how I missed out on Space 1999, certainly heard of it but not sure I've seen it. I had best do some professional research!!
-
Chris, will you be kicking around at Vappers this year? If so, I'll run into you there.

Wow, this is moving quickly.

Out of interest, what sort of playing size do people want? I would like at least a 3' x 3' layout for an Aliens game, Judge Dredd and zombie/PA.
Actually, the 'extendable' nature makes me suggest a 2' by 2' set, assuming the 'rooms' would fit. If you buy 6, you could cover a 6' x 4' table, which is pretty common, and makes my mouth water, and three should give you that 3' x 3', with a lot of slack for how one wants it customized.
Am I making ANY sense? Always a first time, I suppose.

Thanks for that!
One of my favourite shows when I was a kid. Loved the scenery, the spaceships, I totally believed it.

I've been experimenting with some clear doors.
If any one has any ideas for other 'door labels', let me know.
-
I had a range of rooms planned including :
Medical / Med-bay
Science
Engineering (probably too long)
Security
Command
Hab / Habitat / Accommodation
Cargo Bay
Vehicle Bay
Workshop
Hydroponics
R&D
Administration / Administration
Comms / Communications
They were primarily going to be defined by the furniture but the odd door would be great.
-
These look great and I will be interested to see if they make it to the retail space.
If they were available in a variety of 2'x2' sections with doors consistently placed, then a person could buy multiples of them and be able to adjust the layout of their table easily.
-
(https://scontent-lhr3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xtf1/v/t1.0-9/12573822_1086665071378717_1718489215755155409_n.jpg?oh=5bc8a4cfe786b2c695bcfa1d88803f0d&oe=57458239)
Here is another special door, this time for a radiation hazard containment door.
My plan at the moment is to make range available as frets of component parts, for example eight 60mm pre-painted wall sections for £4.30 and then to do a series of sets that make up 300mm square.
Everything is interchangable and fits together like a jigsaw puzzle so no problems with lining doors up from different sets.
-
Right, I got these were interchangeable, but you did ask 3 x 3?
For those of us who're backward folk: so a foot, square. Chose nine to make your 3' by 3', 24 for the 6' by 4' Sean and I implied?
Works for me. :D
Doug
-
Only one minor suggestion...provide kits with the labeled doors and without (or, alternately sell the doors as a standalone project). A lot of projects may not be based in Humanity or even English, and occasionally you want to turn a room into something different. As long as that's possible, awesome.
Are you doing all of the sets in 60mm sections? That'd be a downside for me. I like the jigsaw puzzle/build your own concept, but I'd really prefer having some large stand-alone rooms without having to bash them up every time out of small sections. I'd vastly prefer to see some 6-10" rooms sold as is with a couple of doors in various walls, and then being able to implement it seemlessly with the smaller bits. Modularity is cool but I've found with my Dwarven Forge dungeons it makes stuff waaaaay too time consuming. It's why I'm glad I have a bunch of the old DF stuff which was much larger (normally 4"x4" sections).
-
Elbows, the original design had 60mm, 120mm, 180mm and 240mm wall sections. I'm fairly sure Chris still has 4 wall sizes.
-
(wipes brow) Phew...I hope so. :D
-
I wanted to have large standalone rooms, hence the larger 240mm size. You could have one of them with 4 walls (or 8 if you double side them for external and internal finishing) combined of plain walls, windows, vents and obviously at least one door. You'd then add say four 4x4 floor tile sections internally and four or five single runs on the outside (3x1, 2x1 and 1x1; each square being 60mm) for a 1'x1' section.
-
(https://scontent-lhr3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xfl1/t31.0-8/774250_1087004591344765_7940769067668380117_o.jpg)
The system contains wall and floor tile section which are 60mm, 120mm, 180mm & 240mm.
If you want a quick set up you can always glue your rooms together. Steve's original idea was to glue his rooms together and then add the corridors in between them each time it is set up. This is a good compromise between flexability and speed. It was only when I started making and testing the pieces that I found that they could be freestanding without any glue, so if you were short on space you could flat pack the whole set between games. I have not decided what to do with my set in the long term, but for now an really enjoying the flexability to have a completely different layout each time.
Standard doors are the grey painted ones. The clear doors are special extra's that you will be able to buy as single items if you want them and I will work through any requests that come in through LAF so if you want some labelled in Russian or Klingon... no problem, just let me know!
-
Chris is right, that was my original plan, though now I see the flexibility on offer I may change my mind! I like how rooms can be back to back and annexed.
-
OK... I have had lots of emails saying when can I buy some, so I have spent the day putting the basic bits on the web site.
Their will be a lot more door / wall / furniture pieces added together with bigger sets, but for now you can buy all of the pieces in either sets of the same sort of piece or sets that make up a room with a single entrance ranging from 60mm x 60mm to 240mm x 240mm.

Can you show some pictures of the difference dimensions of the rooms (60x60 to 240x240) with a single figure inside? Looks nice, but the 60x60 seems to be to small for gaming.

The 60x60mm rooms are intended for small storage rooms, lifts, cells, narrow corridors, etc. I'm pretty sure they can also be used to break up larger rooms.

I am going to be busy today getting customer orders cut and dispatched, but will certainly be adding some photographs of each sized room on Friday, however I must agree with Steve 60mm square rooms are very, very useful. This is what I use for Turbo-lifts, cells, storerooms, showers & wcs etc. and also very useful for making a room within a room.
I have done a bit more work on the web-page this morning and the photo-gallery has 19 images loaded (some of which feature 60mm square rooms).

I just placed an order, I tried ordering just the bits but ended up too confused and went for the kits in the end. I didn't order any clips and am thinking maybe I should have do they work without the clips? If not I'll have to add some to the order.
I managed to spend more than I meant to and have only half as much as I want.
A couple of questions:
How well do you think they would stack? Can't have Star Wars without a doorway ending in a broken extending bridge now can we?
Also do the doors in the kits come with the frosted perspex insert? Do hey come ready punched for the insert or can you have windowless doors?
For the record these are going to be used for Clone Wars fun so I think the white colour scheme is just perfect.
-
I'm afraid the confusion is largely my fault! I wanted a kit of parts and maximum flexibility, hence the choices. I'm currently planning my order and I'm probably going to go with room options plus s few extra pieces for Windows and doors.
I think Chris intends on looking at a multi level option and I've been tinkering with some other features too.
-
Oh, also be aware that instead of a 240mm wall with a central door, I think you should be able to swap that out for a 120 door and 120 window or two 120 doors. That lets you mix things up a little.
-
I will be doing some big sets, but no time this week as I have customer orders and Kickstarter orders to work on as well.
This is a very flexible system, I think Steves design is fantastic, it was just what I was looking for which is why I have turned it into a production product.
We are no where near finished yet, I have lots more wall combinations to make, double height walls, walkways, stairs, more door option, furniture & fittings etc.
Putting optimum sets together takes a long time, so we will be adding them slowly. I think most people will buy a bit and then add to it over time. If I was buying into it I would select some rooms to start off with in different sizes and then a couple of SFC03 Frets which are the 60mm wide floor tiles for making corridors and some doors and door frames to make an airlock in the passage-way.
-
Ok thanks but big question, do I need the clips. I forgot to order any and I'll be annoyed if the order comes and it turns out I need a second order to get clips.
-
I think Chris intends on looking at a multi level option and I've been tinkering with some other features too.
It looks a very useful system, Steve.
Lets hope Chris commissions some more of your ideas.

OK, making some progress with this today.
I have just added photographs of all of the room kits with a miniature inside for size comparison.
Rooms go from 60mm x 60mm...
(http://wargamesbuildings.co.uk/WebRoot/Namesco/Shops/950003459/569F/AEB7/29ED/9E7D/58A0/C0A8/190D/65FB/SFC33_ml.jpg)
... I normally use these for Turbo-lifts, showers, cells etc....
To 240mm x 240mm....

... This is a good size for a mess-hall, briefing room, cargo area etc.
... of course you can join multiple rooms together as it is a mix and match system to make a room as big as you want.

Those 240mm x 240mm rooms are beasts, I've definitely got to get at least one or two. I imagine that there is a huge amount of work involved in creating set bundles due to getting the cutting, materials and costs to work out?
As I've just received my Prodos Xenomorphs the timing is great as that's what this was initially designed for.
I'm still tinkering about with a few pieces, including an interior square/garden area (think Mass Effect or Logan's Run).
-
Hi Steve,
Yes, it is very time consuming. I have been doing some work today and have put the first six 300mm square bundles together.
These are available now on web site.
(http://wargamesbuildings.co.uk/WebRoot/Namesco/Shops/950003459/56AA/41B8/89CD/5D74/EA7A/C0A8/1910/357D/SFC47_m.jpg)
I've had lots of requests from WH40K players asking about Zone Mortalis style boards.
I'm planning to do another six on Friday and then take some photos of big sets that will cover 600mm square, 900mm square and 1200mm square (assuming I can get enough stuff cut by then!).

The top one is almost identical to my engineering layout I have on cad!
-
Great minds....
I have six more one foot square sets to do today, and then I'm planning to do the other named doors you listed and at the weekend put some bigger sets together on my table at home for photographing.
-
That sounds good Chris. This would also be great for Spi-fi secret bases or even a post apocalyptic underground vault.
-
... This would also be great for Spi-fi secret bases ...
Yes. Yes, it would.

I have just finished the next six 300mm square terrain sets, bringing the total to twelve.

I don't want to talk for Chris but we've certainly talked about (and have been messing about with) multi level layouts and docking bay / loading bay stuff.

Hi Karl,
We have a long list of additional items to design / add to the range. We will certainly have double height walls for hangers & cargo bays with double height doors, stacking rooms, raised walkways and furniture and fittings. Next up is an extensive range of special doors.

I have started work today on the first room pack that will include both the room and furnishings.
I'm very interested to get some feedback from the group about what they would like to see added to this range, so that I can get some new additions done in order of interest.

I guess my not-tremendously-helpful input would be to "do something that isn't easily available elsewhere". For my part, I've already got a scattering of Ainsty bits and pieces that will be used for furnishings so what could you provide that would be different? Are there, perhaps, some iconic bits of Star Wars/Star Trek/Space 1999/MegaCity One/whatever furniture that people would like because it would be a cool reference? The components for building an airlock? A trash compactor? How about one of those funky mesh screens-as-wall that can be often be seen in the engine room of the original USS Enterprise?
-
An airlock kit and trash compactor are great ideas, especially the airlock.

Only last night, I was chatting to the wife and we were trying to think of "things as yet unreflected in 28mm sci-fi interiors" - it took a surprisingly long time to think of "where do people sleep exactly?" So, damn well done to you. Just the thing.

Nice! Very attractive minis too ;)

Thanks, the miniatures are of course from the fantastic Crooked Dice range, getting ready for some 7TV action.
Here we see some guards from the 'Minions Starter Set' investigating a disturbance in the Mess.

That's got me thinking, this could be great for near future Black Ops stuff too.

Last week we put together a full tables worth of Sci-Fi interiors and fought a WH40K Zone Mortalis style game on it...

Chris, I'm sure this has been mentioned...what is the size of the squares on the floor? Is it suitable for 25-30mm minis? Looks like it. I've been discussing a sci-fi dungeon crawl with some friends so I'm curious if these are gridded for use like that as well.
-
This terrain is designed for use with 28mm Miniatures.
All of the photos in the post are 28mm figures (Star Wars, Crooked Dice & Games Workshop)
The floor tiles are based on 60mm squares.
-
The 60mm tiles were deliberately designed to accommodate 40mm bases without issue (terminators, etc for example) and to make larger creatures on 60mm bases have to use wider corridors and doors.

Just came across this photograph from Wargames, Soldiers and Strategy magazine of the Crooked Dice 7TV Star Wars game on our Sci-Fi Terrain.
I must have a look on my camera for the photos I took at Hammerhead and get some posted.

It looks good. I had a look and found it on the WSS website report on the Hammerhead show.
