An additional sprue with more braces that isn’t shown? Like the missing sprue with the other half of the plasma regulators (they are subtly different from each other in the way the cabling is laid out, so there must be a back half somewhere, not to mention the mirrored railing).

I think the point is, it's pretty weak-sauce on GW's part to only include pics of some of the sprues or not clearly state what's in the box.

Did they somehow lose the ability to produce more of the straight walkway sections? The new Promethium Refinery doesn't include any, and the Ferrotonic Incinerator which included them has been sold out for a long time.

You can still get 'em here.

My thoughts: Ryza Pattern Ruins does not come with the third sprue because it is twice the size of other two. It does not fit in the box. I am still going to buy it, plus Klaisus box for the third sprue. Gotta catch 'em all.

Ialso believe that GW simply forgot to show the second sprue in Thermic Plasma Tower Thingys. The sprue currently shown has two right halves. The other sprue should be similar in setup, but mirrored part arrangement.

I am happy to see ruined Dreadfort wall ends available separately. I skipped the previous boxed set that included them because I had just purchased all the parts I wanted separately.

If it's the big sprue that's missing it could be this is a consequence of their production bottleneck for the which might be why all of these terrain things have been a bit fuzzy on the contents

they may have expected to have solved the bottleneck by now but not being able to do so in time have had to change up what's in the boxes

Do you guys think Dragon Fate dais for aos will make a return in a separate set or should I buy the pack with the 4 terrains ? Thx !!

I don’t know if it will or not, but I know I got the set discounted and shipped to the US for £107, which ends up being less than what the web store sells it for here ($149 + tax). I wouldn’t pass that boxed set up if you’re interested in the contents. It’s already a good savings, and even though it says web store exclusive, it’s not.

Creator of the plasma conduits and regulators will sooner or later be tweeting their features and whatnot like he did with the industrial terrain he created earlier, should be interesting.

Wassat? I'm lost? What features need tweaking?

He'll be tweeting them. He shows off different builds/combinations for the kits.

It's actually really nifty to see.

I'm sure he'll be on WHTV again as well, those were very interesting segments.

No it wasn't. I asked them afterwards.

Their descriptions are the reason I asked. Does the Plasma Conduit look like it comes with 12 pipes, and 4 of each sprue? How do you get 32 braces when the sprue that has the braces only has 6 of them?

This is why I asked.

My apologies! I was referring to the Promethium Refinery

Oooo, got a link to his feed? Need to mine ideas...

I would buy the Ruins of Elixia. It's $208 retail for $149. So easily available online for about $127. The Dragonfate Dais was $50 back when it was in production, and it's been gone for almost a year. It's a sweet piece of terrain, so I would not risk losing out on it forever.
Plus the Ophidian Archway and Numinous Occulum are modular. I had two of each and made one of each vanilla and combined the rest into a cool ruin piece.

Thanks for that. That feed is gold - so many clever little things that I've never noticed before:

Agreed! Shame they didn't include these in the instructions, as trawling through his posts and retweets has yielded a nice haul of inspirational builds for later this month.

More Xenos stuff please Geedubs!!

I'd love to see some Eldar, Necron and/or Ork terrain (buildings) from GW. It would be glorious!

Just imagine things like this:

Or:


They could be both usefull for Warhammer and Post-apocalyptic games

Apologies if this has been posted here or elsewhere before, but the rules for the Hive Shield and scenario for the Pythos terrain packs can be downloaded from the GW site.

Pythos scenario: https://www.games-workshop.com/resources/PDF/Downloads/40k-outpost-pythos-iv-en.pdf

Hive shield rules: https://www.games-workshop.com/resources/PDF/Downloads/40k-hive-shield-en.pdf

And here we go: https://twitter.com/RayDranfield/status/931919705568350213

Plasma Regulators No1. Both of the left sides fit with both of the right sides, giving you 4 different variants

And no. 2: https://twitter.com/RayDranfield/status/931921494980079616

Plasma Regs No2. Pipeline fittings allow you to link them to your #sectormechanicus #scenery giving your game more levels.

More kits at the same height would be welcome. Especially if they came with support struts and ladders to suite.

It'd be nice to see the underside of those platforms - if there are pre-moulded holes and the like, then expect more at that height.

I've asked him on Twitter, we'll hear soon enough I suppose.

That is a really good twitter feed. Learnt a few things about the kit I did not know. The pipe length one is very useful.

What's up with GW's stinginess with the straight walkway sections?

I love this terrain sooooo much, but I'd love it more with more straight walkways.

so is there any new 40k rules for the new pieces of terrain?
