Mecha Wargames

What did you use for the buildings?

I needed something really quick so I used the display boxes that the likes of Dragon Armour come in. I took the base and stuck it on the roof. Primed them grey, put masking tape on and sprayed black all over. Then just peeled the masking tape off.

Steders thanks for sharing the figures and game looked ace!! Glad this thread has become a growing interest in the mecha genre.

They look fine.  I mean obviously they could do with some more work but if time is short the important thing is to have enough stuff to get the game played.

I think that most peoples terrain collections are in a constant state of upgrade and renewal.  Mine certainly is.

Thanks for the info.

Thanks, I know they need more work, I'm just not sure where to go next with them! Maybe highlight the 'windows' and some fire exit signs.
I might make a plaza to put them on, just a base board with foot paths and some basic street furniture.

Reaper's CAV is also a decent ruleset.

I second CAV.  Pretty fast play too.

Any chance for a more in-depth opinions on why its fun?  I've been debating giving this game a shot, but the initial investment is going to be fairly large, so I'd like to hear some good (and bad) points if you have the time.

Thanks.
