Games Workshop: New Grim Dark Warhammer 40K Sector Mechanicus Scenery Released


Games Workshop has launched the pre-order for their new Warhammer 40K - Horus Heresy Sector Mechanicus scenery including a rather nice kit of Galvanic Servohaulers and other hard-plastic grim dark terrain pieces.

Sector Mechanicus Galvanic Servohaulers - Click here

A highly-detailed, evocative plastic scenery kit, the Galvanic Servohaulers are a set of 2 haulers and a large crane, which open up a host of modelling options with which to add linear obstacles to your gaming table, providing cover for your miniatures and evoking a lived-in, working feel to the industrial scenery of the Sector Mechanicus range.
The 2 servohaulers themselves are remnants of ancient technology; little more than powerful engines with tracked wheels, they’re covered in iron plating, and feature a hydraulic crane and robotic arm – these pieces are interchangeable between the two. Both servohaulers feature Adeptus Mechanicus symbols and large, almost primitive exhaust systems – there’s nothing elegant here! The crane is a much taller machine, a skeletal frame of iron holding a chain, three-clawed grabber and winch with a large engine block and Adeptus Mechanicus symbols on the sides. 

The trailer that the crane fits upon can instead fit a Munitorum Armoured Container; this kit has been designed with an eye to mixing and matching components from that kit and creating your own obstacles and cover in industrial environments. Also included are a toolbox and fire extinguisher, because in the grim darkness of the far future safety is still a top concern. A scenario is included for using the Galvanic Servohaulers in games of Warhammer 40,000.

Sector Mechanicus Promethium Forge - Click here

An incredibly detailed, striking scenery set, the Promethium Forge is a modular plastic kit compatible with the entire Sector Mechanicus range – detailed, configurable scenery that will help you play games on a multi-level environment!
A large collection of walkways, pipes, platforms and equipment, the Promethium Forge is a splendid scenery set that provides a great terrain piece for your miniatures to battle over. Featuring a central tank, with a huge, detailed chimney, the kit features a number of walkways and platforms that can be assembled around the Forge in a whole load of different configurations, clipping into place with the plug-in holes. Each piece of the kit is covered in incredible detail, with pipes beneath the walkways, valves, displays and fans covering every surface and ladders allowing you to build multi-level structures. Of particular note is the huge, skull-shaped winching mechanism which can hang under whichever walkway you choose. Rules are included for using this scenery piece in games of Warhammer 40,000.

This kit contains 4 frames of plastic components – one featuring the tank and chimney of the Forge, one filled with supporting legs and two filled with platforms – and is compatible with every other kit in the Sector Mechanicus scenery range, meaning massive, multi-level labyrinthine structures can be built for your battle to be fought on. They can even be combined with the Haemotrope Reactor, Promethium Relay Pipes and Void Shield Generator. Your imagination is the only limit – no two gaming tables ever need look the same!

Sector Mechanicus: Ferratonic Incinerator - Click here

An incredibly detailed, striking scenery set, the Ferratonic Incinerator is a modular plastic kit compatible with the entire Sector Mechanicus range – detailed, configurable scenery that will help you play games on a multi-level environment!
Made up of a cylindrical structure – the Incinerator itself – with a set of 4 industrial walkways and a central platform, the Ferratonic Incinerator provides an excellent, massively configurable platform for your miniatures to battle over. The Incinerator, covered in detailed pipework, valves and Mechanicus symbols, can be used as a central pillar with the walkways and their sidewalls clipped in place wherever you like using the plug-in holes. Included are 4 ladders and a set of legs – the walkways can be constructed above each other, and used to connect multiple Sector Mechanicus scenery pieces together. 3 different small cranes and winches are in the kit, and every single piece is replete with details, from information displays and pressure control valves to vents, fans and Adeptus Mechanicus maker’s plates. Rules are included for using this scenery piece in games of Warhammer 40,000.

This kit contains 4 frames of plastic components – one featuring the Incinerator cylinder, one containing walkways, one filled with supporting legs and one filled with platforms – and is compatible with every other kit in the Sector Mechanicus scenery range, meaning massive, multi-level labyrinthine structures can be built for your battle to be fought on. They can even be combined with the Haemotrope Reactor, Promethium Relay Pipes and Void Shield Generator. Your imagination is the only limit – no two gaming tables ever need look the same!

Wayland Games is now accepting pre-orders for these excellent discounted hard-plastic Warhammer 40K - Horus Heresy scenery pieces. You can save some money by grabbing yours now here

Forge World: Massive The Hobbit - Iron Hills Dwarf Chariot


Forge World: At the forefront of Dain Ironfoot’s army ride the Iron Hills Chariots. Intent on nothing less than the total destruction of their foes, they smash through shieldwalls and cleave apart those unfortunate enough to find themselves in the path of their bladed wheels. Each mighty chariot is pulled along by six rams and crewed by four highly skilled Iron Hills Dwarves, one of whom fires the rapid fire bolt thrower.

Fans of The Hobbit™: Strategy Battle Game should keep their eyes peeled over the next few weeks for the arrival of the most impressive chariot in Middle-earth™, and each one comes with either a driver or the option of an Iron Hills Captain to command it.

Fenris Games: Stocking Bronze Age, Darkling Minis and Forge of Ice Miniatures


Fenris Games: Now Salute's done & dusted and the workshop's approaching a clear floor again, I've had chance to list almost 300 "new" minis in the webshop. The entire Bronze Age and Forge of Ice ranges are now available via the Fenris website - and I'll be adding Darkling Minis (Chaos Dwergs, spelltoads) to the shop soonish, too. Small stock of a variety of them, but mostly these will be a rolling pre-order (similar to what Tim at Miniature Heroes does with Reaper, et al) on the 1st of each month, allowing you to avoid import duties and Royal Mail handling fees. Random assortment of pics follows; all listings are in the 28mm minis section of the website.

Modiphius Entertainment: Fallout: Wasteland Warfare Tabletop Miniatures Game


Modiphius Entertainment: London - England (April 26, 2017): Modiphius Entertainment, publisher of the Star Trek Adventures, Achtung! Cthulhu, Mutant Chronicles, Conan, Infinity and John Carter of Mars roleplaying games, is thrilled to announce today that Fallout: Wasteland Warfare, the first tabletop miniatures game based on the Fallout universe, is currently in development and is set to release November 2017.


In Fallout: Wasteland Warfare, players will build their own crew from a wide range of factions, allies and iconic characters from the Fallout series, and play in apocalyptic games of 3 - 30 high quality 32mm scale resin miniatures through a huge variety of iconic scenery and settlement buildings, from the Red Rocket to Sanctuary Hills, Nuka- Cola vending machines and wrecked vehicles. Settlements will include buildings, defenses and resources that impact the crew’s army list and abilities in the wasteland.

Fallout: Wasteland Warfare will include an entire narrative campaign arc as well as unique random missions with narrative-style objectives, and Crew Caps recovered in missions can be used to improve the crew’s perks, weapons, gear, and upgrades for the next encounter. In either Player vs. Player, or Tournament mode, players will try to survive the tabletop wasteland.


The game will also come with a customizable solo-play AI deck to control enemies that play to their strengths and replicate a faction’s tactics while attempting a narrative mission or perfecting settlement-building strategy. Players can also team up with a friend to defend a larger settlement or explore narrative missions in cooperative games against AI forces or the post-apocalyptic dangers of the wasteland. Organized Play packs will be available at launch to retail stores, organizers and gaming groups. Fallout: Wasteland Warfare will be available for pre-order in the summer. 




TerraCutter: Fantasy, Historical and Science Fiction Wargame Miniature Scenery


TerraCutter: On the website you will find a variety of terrain options for different board games (Infinity, Warhammer40k, Malifaux and other). Over time, the range will increase. We also have a section with different accessories. Rulers, markers, boxes for miniatures and other.


Armorcast: New Scifi Tech Walk System Released


Armorcast: Armorcast's Tech Walk system allows for fast pace tactical combat in a dark futuristic setting and takes your skirmishes into the third dimension! 

Designed for infantry and other figures on 32 mm or smaller bases, this multi-level system offers advantages for snipers, and other infantry specialists to get the drop on other units. It makes a great play space for gang type games with capture the flag and hold the high ground scenarios. It is structurally very sound and steady and packs into a smallish box when done. The gritty details of a worn, rusted and combat damaged fire base are sculpted into the design. 


It works well with games like Osprey's Scrappers, Megacon’s MERCS 2.0, Games Workshop’s Shadow War Armageddon, Corvis Belli’s Infinity, Games Workshop’s Warhammer 40K, and other futuristic small squad games. Individual pieces can be used to form piers and outlooks on the short, and pedestrian walkways over major roads. It works well with Armorcast’s Tech Canals, Gothtech Structures, Overhead Pipeline and Modular Refinery. All walkways are modular, interchangable and (with the tiniest bit of effort) easily adaptable to other buildings kits. The components are designed to be sturdy and easy to assemble, as well as featuring a modular set-up. No more flimsy cardboard, fiddly plastic connector clips, and parts cut from wood by-products that when painted show off woodgrain textures when the model is supposed to represent steel or concrete! There will be three waves. The first two will be from the original collection, while the third wave will have new designs to expand the set.


ACTW003 – 3" Tall Small Platform with Ramp – $21.00 USD
ACTW006 – 3" Tall Medium Platform #1 – 2 Entrance Points – $15.00 USD
ACTW007 – 3" Tall Medium Platform #2 – 3 Entrance Points – $15.00 USD
ACTW008 – 3" Tall Large Hex Platform – $25.00 USD
ACTW009 – 6" Tall Small Platforms w/ Two Ramp Set – $35.00 USD
ACTW011 – 6" Tall Medium Platform #2 – 3 Entrance Points – $17.50 USD
ACTW012 – 6" Tall Large Hex Platform – $32.00 USD
ACTW015 – 9" Tall Medium Platform #2 – 3 Entrance Points – $20.00 USD
ACTW016 – 9" Tall Large Hex Platform – $35.00 USD
ACTW017 – Catwalks/Ramps (2 Sections) – $15.00 USD
ACTW018 – 3" Tall Tech Walk Columns (2) – $15.00 USD
ACTW023 – Novamerican Elevated Fire Base – $25.00 USD

Second Wave will feature boxed sets (pictured above) as well as the remaining classic designs. Third Wave will feature components to make the platforms and catwalks have a post-Apoc shantytown look to it. Hastily erected walls and shed roofs will be the theme. Also, take advantage of Armorcast's free shipping for orders over $200.00 USD worldwide!
