I give you table #1 "City 17" It's the first of 10 tables in the works for an upcoming tournament that sallieman and I are holding on the 30th. The terrain was built/painted by myself and sallieman, big thanks to Jason "an00bis" for the wicked awesome tau drawings. The awesome ethereal pic is by Wen-JR http://wen-jr.deviantart.com/art/Ethereal-100544412 and the awesome crisis/stealth suit pic is by thevampiredio http://thevampiredio.deviantart.com/gallery/?offset=0#/d3ct2lr

It's basically an ex imperial world that has been colonised by tau. This specific sector of city 17 is the mining district. The mining vehicles are made from robogear bits.

Do you play 30k? It'd be a lot cooler if you did.

Great job! Love all the posters and such- really brings the table some character. Will all of the terrain be snow/ice/crystal(?) themed or do you plan on mixing it up?

Very, very impressive. Great, well balanced table that I would love to play on. Excellent.
Most of all though; Half Life 2!

"As I recall, your face was tortured. Imagine that - the Master of the Wolves, his ferocity twisted into grief. And yet you still carried out your duty. You always did what was asked of you. So loyal. So tenacious. Truly you were the attack dog of the Emperor. You took no pleasure in what you did. I knew that then, and I know it now. But all things change, my brother. I'm not the same as I was, and you're... well, let us not mention where you are now."

And you guys are dead on, it's a total homage to half-life 2. Gotta love that "benevolent" occupier vibe

I love the table. Very cool and extremely well done.

I just think its funny that at a tournament someone is going to have an army with lava themed bases that is going to have to play on it.

The first one made me chiver with the cold, and i heard the wind, the machines working and the digital voices giving me orientations. VERY well done.
