Does anyone here have experience with litko's industrial tower system? It's a laser cut terrain set with parts to make towers, platforms, buildings, and walkways. Looks like it can make nice vertical terrain for skirmish games like necromunda.
I've got a few skirmish games I play now and it looked like the perfect terrain. I planned to get the biggest set which costs around $350. Costly but it fills a table and adds more play area. However, I wanted more reviews and opinions in it.

More importantly, do they make any Space Corridors?

Good grief, it isn't that funny anymore. I mean, I'm all for running gags, but please... this gets thrown around far too often.

Yeah, it's a running gag, but it's starting to be run into the ground. At least give it enough of a break so that there's a fair few people who don't know what it is first

In that case, they look good from the pictures, but I don't have any either.

I don't own any, but I've seen some pieces in person and I was underwhelmed by the lack of detail. For the price, I'd pass. Buy some tehnolog kits instead.

I like them. I bought one set of the walkways for my display board for my Eldar:
They look nice IMO and while no, they arent incredibly detailed I dont see why they should be. I prefer my stuff generic anyway so the paint can have detail. It's why I dont roll with GW buildings.
The only downside is that they STINK hardcore. He uses a laser to cut the wood, and I had to let it sit outside for a day. Open and leave inside and its like instant two pack a day smoker living with you. It faded after a couple days though.
IMO it was worth it.

Very much worth it, although like the Space Corridors, you need to finish with paint or additional materials.

Industrial towers by Litko? I've never heard of them, what do they make, can I use them as space corridors?

If only a company could make such items like the much vaunted Space Corridor and perhaps in addition the fabled Industrial Tower! Then perhaps my search would be over! If only a company such as the mythical Litko Aerosystems would finally hear my pleas.

So long as I have a Space Corridor on one hand, and an Industrial Tower in the other, I won't care much now will I?

Speaking of, I think Litko has some templates available on their site in .pdf format, if you're not into the kind of amazing finishing job that GMMStudios did.
