I don't own an EA warlord but if someone can give me an idea of the dimensions they would like such a missile launcher to be....I can make it.

Does the EA warlord have sockets for the weapons like the original SM warlords? If so if someone can give me an idea of the diameter of the hole that would help too.

Also if there is a desire to mount something similar on a rhino to make whirlwind proxies....just say the word.

So the carapace has a U shaped slot for theCarapace weapons, but it gets slightly bigger at the top.

It's 6.6mm across at the bottom and 6.94mm at the top.

The slot is 4.19mm high and extends a further 2mm above beyond the sides.

The sides are 2.06mm deep.

Photo attached below of the mount, hopefully this helps.

ok, looking at the pic it's not clear what the angles are...i'd be shooting in the dark. Might have to find an excuse to buy a Warlord....

It's for business and you need the tax write-off?

Warlord ordered as a tax deductable.....

Latest update on the Nano Space Hulk project.

I have all the corridors and rooms designed (although not made & painted yet).

Now working on parts like the ladders and hatches pictured.

Don't let my painting put you off sleep deprived!

It's cool . Do companies make 6mm aliens / bugs / creatures etc to use in these? Might be cool to partner with someone to have suggested models to use

You could easily use Onslaught Minis for it. They have tyranid type models that are solid;

And Vanguard for "Marines/Orks"'

Vanguard miniatures have 'Novan Elites' and Alien 'Prowlers' that bare a striking resemblance to the necessary in 6mm.....

Lol Hulksmash...we must have been typing at the same time

Honey Bee if you haven't already you should totally get in touch with them and make a package deal to sell on both sites!

Oh and you should put a link to your store in your sig!

SOLD !!! I've wanted a compact, Epic scale Space Hulk for ages !!

I ordered a pile of the canal stuff from Honeybee, and they delivered great service after a post office disaster.

So i thought I'd post some pictures of the completed scenery as a way of saying thank you.

The photos are composed rather than in game shots but, the scenery is so good that I had to buy it, and it will now force me to organise some Epic games!

Having now built two of the canal packs my top tip would be, rather than sticking the canal bits together with glue, cut the basing paper then glue all the bits to it with PVA/ white glue. Much easier to work with.

Looks an awesome table!

Thanks for the understanding when Royal Mail lost your order!

You might have been wondering what happened to the Nano Space Hulk project.

Well Christmas happened and we got very busy with orders. I've now been able to pick this up again.

Ok, i've finished all the actual corridor pieces. This is what you will get in the way of corridors and doors (some are shown open) in the final set.

Obviously the pieces can be combined in any variety of ways.

Laid out like this the set takes up 34cm by 40cm.

More updates to follow shortly on the counters and objectives.

What do you think?

Forgive me if I've asked this already but is there any chance this would be large enough to accommodate 15mm figures?

Sorry MLaw; these are much too small for 15mm. They are aimed at 6-8mm.

You remind me of Reducto.

Looks good but could we see some 5mm, 10mm figures in it?

You should really try and get a link up with Vanguard to cross market.

Hey thanks! It was worth a shot I don't think a hand full of 6mm models will break the bank or the storage but figured since I play 15mm and not 6mm it was worth asking.

Some updates on the progress to make the counters.

Few done, few still to do. I have quite a lot of work on at the moment (with the day job) but i hope to get the product finished and loaded on the EStore for sale in 2-3 weeks.

Nice!

Those red flame counters would be useful as hit makers in Epic Armageddon too.

Post was duplicated - don't know why....

It's finally done and on sale! over 400 pieces!

http://honeybeeworks.co.uk/products/nano-hulk-6mm-space-hulk-compatible-scenery

Nano Hulk scenery is compatible with the 'space hulk' rule set but in a completely different scale - allowing you to crawl over those derelict alien riddled hulks in 6mm scale. For miniatures (not included) we recommend Onslaught Miniatures range of "Legion Prowlers" as aliens and Vanguard Miniatures Defeat in Detail "Nova Legion" as human heroes.

Play your favourite space dungeon crawler in the space of an A4 piece of paper, on the train, in a car, on a plane....

4x 5 square corridors, 4x 4 square corridors, 6x 3 square corridors, 8x 2 square corridors, 4x corridor corners, 8x cross corridors, 4x corridor dead ends, 8x T-junction corridors, 4x external airlocks, 2x dead end rooms (1 Skull & 1 Sword), 1x 'straight through' room, 3x 'corner' rooms, 1x 'cross' room, 2x 'T-junction' rooms, 20x opening airlocks, 10x 'on watch' counters, 10x 'on guard' counters, 10x 'gun jammed' counters, 4x Force Generators, 4x Damaged Force Generators, 1x Force Grenade Counter, 8x down hatches, 8x up ladders, 8x human control counters, 8x alien control counters, 1x tracked drone objective, 1x ancient sword objective, 2x computer terminals, 18x alien hidden movement counters, 1x resource tracker and 3x resource counters.

This is NOT a game; there are no miniatures or rules, it is a scenery set and counter set. While the scenery and counters are compatible with the space hulk rule set from GW, they can be used with any number of other rule sets and are NOT a space hulk clone.

This set requires assembly and consists of well over 400 individual pieces. The set is made from either solid grey, translucent green, translucent orange, translucent red acrylic, which can be glued with super glue and easily painted with acrylic paints.

If some who has bought nano hulk could leave feedback (provided it is positive) it would be appreciated

Those look very handsome! ...and the price point is very reasonable.

I'd also love to hear from someone who has some of these.

i've sold 5 sets (so far in the first week) - so hopefully someone from Dakka bought one and can post feedback.

Ah, certainly.

I received my set last week (in London), and have been seriously impressed with it so far. The page isn't joking - there really are over 400 teeny tiny pieces here, most of which are in small labelled bags. You'll want to keep everything separated until immediately before washing, drying and gluing the pieces.

Everything is made from thick laser-cut acrylic, and is extremely tough. The package arrived in the post looking like it had been stamped on a number of times, great tears in the brown paper, and every single piece inside was intact! I was a little worried that it would be difficult to glue shiny acrylic to shiny acrylic, but the jigsaw-like fitting has kept things securely in place. It is a lot of time-consuming gluing though - something like a single T-junction is 6 different pieces, and you'd be advised to add one piece at a time (in batches) and let it dry before adding the next.

While some of the pieces are generic spaceship tiles, plenty of others have loads of little details etched into them - pressure dials, grating, rubbish chutes, skulls, bullet holes... Frankly has more detail than most of the 1st edition tiles had! The lines from the movement squares are very fine, so you'll want to emphasise those with ink/a wash when painting/

Also worth mentioning that you also get all of the counters you need (blips, blast markers) as well as a plastic resource tracker sheet. All you need to play Space Hulk is rules, dice, and models.

The 6mm models from Vanguard easily fit within the corridors, and could do with extending their integrated bases with greenstuff a little to make handling and directionality easier to manage.

Photos of what I've managed so far:





It's definitely a hobby project that will require a bit of time to put together, but I just find it astonishingly cool. Actually bought it so that I could play Space Hulk down the pub - doesn't fit on the tables otherwise!

Mine will be arriving soon. It looks excellent from the pictures. Space hulk is the obvious choice but there are spaceship boarding action rules in the badab book meanwhile this could be good for 6mm necromunda style corridor skirmishes.

Thanks Bioptic, can't wait to see it painted up.

Samsonov your order is on it's way

Arrived thanks, it is really wonderful. Will post feedback and probably pictures at some future point.
