Necromunda... terrain and ideas

[Warden]

Does anybody play?

I have been looking up terrain ideas recently, and may begin to start planning out my future 40K urban terrain board, when I came across a few gems. If anyone is interested in Necromunda they are definately worth a look for both miniature and terrain ideas.

Found another good site:

• Iron Hands.com has a ton of great classic Necromunda/40K stuff (as well as some Mordheim) sprinkled through its many pages of photos. I was especially a big fan of their Industrial Scenery, as well as Ork Terrain and Alien Terrain.

Great to see how some of this stuff was made:

Don't play myself, but I think the Necromunda setting is fantastic. So many opportunities for conversions...

I have played a couple of times and love the setting. However, I think it was a real mistake putting the Eschers into the boxed game...

Cool set of minis from Maelstrom's Edge:

Broken Infantry



So far as I can tell from the assembly guide, a single kit comes with enough parts for at least 6 miniatures, to include:

x6 torsos
x12 legs
x 36 sets of arms
~ about 23 head options including both regular humans and an assortment of aliens
~ about 20 weapons to include pistols/guns/bigger guns

The site had three purchase options for 6, 12, and 18 minis.

Considering the price you get a wealth of options that could easily augment a Necromunda force or other sci-fi setting, provided you don't care about mixing manufacturers too much. I may consider getting a box of these guys for the conversion opportunities.

The minis are relatively the same scale as GW 40K, being a little bit taller (see below for two other Maelstrom's Edge minis from another faction versus Imperial Guard and Space Marine)

The maelstroms edge stuff is decent

Also, i'm more looking forward to the video game adaption the makers of the mordhiem game are doing

Cool terrain ideas, would also look great for infinity!

Very clever - all the road signs are made of old green 40K tokens!

Still working on my terrain - production has ground to a halt for the moment while I decide what to build next whenever I have a spare minute or so from doing work (which isn’t often).

I have really enjoyed Realm of Chaos recently, who did a fantastic Space Hulk game. I am a big fan of the terrain they put together:
