I think I remember hearing something on TWIW about laser cut wood terrain that was necromunda-ish in appearance. Does anyone know what this is and where I can find it?

I don't think that's it, they talked about it in the episode with stelak i think. It's wood cut and has decals you can apply to give it more depth and color. Maybe I'll jsut have to not be lazy and DL the episode again and listen to it.

I wonder where one might procure terrain pertaining to the subject of "industrial towers" and "space corridors".

I tried Litko, but they only sell limburger cheese and salami sandwiches.

Have you tried Litko Aerosystems, the Industrial Tower and Space Corridor manufacturer? I hear it's across the street from Litko's Deli.

I've heard of a manufacturer, Litco, that makes space corridors, but I wish they also made industrial towers as well.

I foresee a lot of Space Corridor sets being ordered if the rumors of a Space Hulk resurrection come to pass.

Now, if only there was somewhere to get them (along with Industrial Towers), I'd be good to go.

I know for a fact that Litko is merely an urban legend.

Now if only some company would fill the void of producing such memorable classics as industrial towers and jazzy masterpieces like space corridors, we would be rolling in laminated lumber heaven.

My cousin's best friend once ordered some 'industrial towers' and 'space corridors' from something called the intar-network.

I can't remember the name of the company he used though.

I wonder if you can put the space corridors in the industrial towers... or perhaps the industrial towers in the space corridors. Or mayhaps even combine them to create space towers and/or industrial corridors! THE POSSIBILITIES ARE ENDLESS!!!

Hey guys I've looked at all these different companies you've mentioned but i think I'm going to have to go with Litko aerosystems systems and their industrial tower system.

You should also check out the their websites they also have a really cool space corrider system that might work great for space hulk.

Pfft! Puhleeese!

You go on as if SpaceHulk is an original GW idea.

I bet if you asked the designers where they got their inspiration to make the game, they wouldn't be able to deny with a straight face that they watched the aliens movies and thought to themselves:
"I want to kill aliens! But how can we change the names and shapes of the things we saw and only barely get away with copyright infringement that Fox is so eager to defend? I know! Lets give the aliens an extra set of arms, and call them 'genestealers'. *nudge nudge* Pretty clever eh? You see what I did there by calling them genestealers? Ha! I kill me!"...

If GW can be so blatant and bold, I see no reason why other companies cannot profit off of the same ambiguities of 'generic' space combat as well.

'Cute' indeed.

Balsa wood or some heavy cardstock can do you one better.

You can download some of that textured grate style and paste or glue it to the balsawood.


I think its over at www.Litko.com in the download section.

They have door and floor downloads, as well as that black and yellow industrial markings.

Great I dea to use with your Chromastealerz

When I ordered he was having a 50% off sale and he got a higher response than he would normally expect, so the order took 10 days to arrive.
I was in no hurry to get the items, so I thought the time was reasonable.

Hey all, my website is back up and running at http://www.flyingtricycle.com

I will be updating soon with some new desert/orky buildings that are terrific for 5th Edition. Mike Early did some up for his Cagoween event recently. You can see them in progress here: http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/221899.page

I'll also have some buildings on a few of the tables at Adepticon. I make my kits to 40K scale, i.e., 3" inches between floors, and large enough to hide/obscure vehicles and place squads inside.

Send me a PM or an email if you have any questions or suggestions!

What does everyone mean by industrial towers and space corridors?

Industrial towers- planetary based, or death star style? How tall? Ruined or complete? How about access? With balconies, stairs, doors at the bottom, all three? Part of a larger building at the base, or freestanding? Large enough for a guard shack or control room, or huge for a planetary defense laser? Let me know what other details or ideas you have...

Towers are a definite possibility, as I can make individual kits that may retail from as little as $15.00, to large kits for $40 to $50.

Space corridors - with wall sections or just floor tiles? General Imperial decoration or plain? For playing 40K in a shipboard setting, or other smaller games, or roleplaying?

Understand that to cover a 4x6 table with space corridors uses a lot of material. Even assuming a 25% empty area to 75% terrain ratio, you're talking about 18 square feet of terrain. Thats about 9 sheets of plywood material from my laser, without wall sections at all. Add wall sections and you are talking about 25 to 30 sheets of material. Retail for this would run approximately $180.00 for floors, and $600.00 for floors and walls. I don't know how many people would be able to afford it and interested in buying it, but I feel very few would.

Towers are a definite possibility, as I can make individual kits that may retail from as little as $15.00, to large kits for $40 to $50.

Space corridors - with wall sections or just floor tiles? General Imperial decoration or plain? For playing 40K in a shipboard setting, or other smaller games, or roleplaying?

Understand that to cover a 4x6 table with space corridors uses a lot of material. Even assuming a 25% empty area to 75% terrain ratio, you're talking about 18 square feet of terrain. Thats about 9 sheets of plywood material from my laser, without wall sections at all. Add wall sections and you are talking about 25 to 30 sheets of material. Retail for this would run approximately $180.00 for floors, and $600.00 for floors and walls. I don't know how many people would be able to afford it and interested in buying it, but I feel very few would.


Geez way to get all technical about everybody's favorite terrain. Almost sucks the fun out of mindless repetition! We just want some Space Corridor craziness to spice up the Industrial Tower town.

I wasn't trying to be a jerk, these are legitimate questions. What would you guys like to see? I got a look at the Litko stuff, and I like it, but it sort of underscores my previous comments. Even with relatively cheap plywood, covering a whole board is pricey.

I'm leaning towards stand alone kits that represent larger structures on a 40K battlefield. Similiar in scale to the GW cities of Death kits. Less detailed, but less expensive and faster to put together. The problems I see with scratchbuilding nice looking buildings is getting consistent doors and windows cut out of the walls, decent stairs and other large architectural elements. I make you the basic structure, and you can detail it up to your hearts content. For example, who all would like an orbital defense laser, or the big landing facility featured in the Apocolypse book or White Dwarf? I can design up the buildings out of plywood, and the buyer can add volcanic rocks, radar arrays, the laser cannon, whatever details I can't make in flat plywood.

I ordered flying tricycle's elevated walkway back when he was offering the 50% discount. Box arrived 2 weeks after I ordered it. However, I haven't gotten around to actually opening the box, what with all the other projects i have been working on :(. I will take a peak tonight.

Well, to offer you at least some constructive critisism, cheap landing platforms or orbital leaser both sound a like a cool idea for terrain.

How about some sort of junk-buildings, like Megaton in Fallout 3?

And I would love to see someone do some industrial towers or space corridors, but that's just daydreaming

Well first you're gonna want go to Litko Aerosystems, who specialize in industrial towers, and space corridors, to buy the industrial towers, and maybe some space corridors as well? Then you're gonna want to go to Litko Supermarkets, which is just next to Likto Aerosystems and pick up the Industrial Tower and Space Corridor Peanut Butter Spread.

You should check out the Litko Aerosystems website, they sell both industrial towers and space corridors.

Well Likto just added BattleTech Tokens to their list of items. With any luck they'll start making 6mm Space Corridors and Industrial Towers soon!

BYE

OK, so I finally opened my Flying Tricycle Elevated Walkway that I bought...from Flying Tricycle...back in July .



The parts were all there and a few to spare...I know cause it comes with a fancy instruction sheet complete with pictures and words ...if only GW could learn of such .

The platform and supports include additional detail that is etched into the wood, which should make it fairly convenient for drybrushing and/or shading.



The best part is it leaves your hands smelling like smoked brisket...hmmmm....smoked flavor goodness!

They also sell Fortified Lines with Pillboxes but not Space Corridors and Industrial Towers . Nope, you will have to go somewhere else if you want those.

Yay! I can play Space Hulk with epic chromastealers thanks to these new Space Corridors & maybe even industrial towers.

I got my walkway and it stinks! Literally! Smells like it was still smoldering in my mailbox

The kit is very nice though. Should go together well and the plywood is of a very good quality.
