Looking for a list of quality 28mm trench terrain manufacturers. If this has been already posted I canne find it! I was looking at callistra and was hoping for the opinions/reviews/advice of dakkanauts to help me with my city fight-trench fight board.
Currently finishing building a mantic quadrant and have a shedload of quality bunkers. Alongside this I have lots of curious constructs sandbag emplacements. I would like some modular trench networks, craters, minefields ect I don't mind doing abit of work with putty ect! Thanks!

I don't know if this is of any help to you, but perhaps try to build them yourself?. Cheaper, and you will get exactly the interconnecting pieces you are looking for. Good luck.

Not really otherwise I'd be asking for a tutorial....
No room for projects in my new flat, no time.
If it makes it easier: I want to buy not make. Reasons now included above!
Would love to make though! Shouldn't have mentioned putty..

These aren't the best but probably the cheapest:

No but I have seen them at Salute.
As I said, not the best but stick it to an mdf base & glue on some sand / gravel, paint & flock, than you should get a really good result.
As I'm now playing SoTR, I am getting very tempted.

Thanks colonel! Will put an order in...been loving your blog and posts for a long time and it helps with imagination-ideas and motivation! Sadly my ability doesn't always match up. I love my sandbag defences ect and would love either a gunpit or a covered dug-out from curious! Will go on and look thanks!

No problem! I know Chris, who does the Lucky Punk Miniatures terrain has alot of things in development at the moment - a sandbag bunker has been mentioned to me as being very near finished.
This week it's the turn of a Urban Barricade Defence Line though and it looks stonking!

That's cool- long shot but is there any pictures of the urban barricades early? Would love a look!...sounds exactly like what I want
Really happy with the redoubt and various sandbags I've bought... id be really keen on any terrain that would match up with my static artillery!!

Really glad to hear your pleased with the exiting range, I use them myself as well, both as part of my own terrain collection and for my gaming store, Kirton Games.

I have the Lucky Punk sand bags set & I am really happy with it. It even comes with a tiny decal sheet with warning symbols including 'bio-hazard' which, I've found, is one of the hardest to find!

I'm from cornwall originally colonel and just saw your store is in Devon and I may break a habit of a lifetime and on the way back to the best country on earth pop in and see your store!
Thanks! The urban rubble defence looks cool!! Will put a order in the end of the week. Quick question: do you sell the new autocannon sep from the gun carriage (I make my own) like the gatling? Cheers and gone

I have quite a bit of Amera stuff including the trenches
It's dirt cheap, easy to work with & very light weight. If you stick it to some 4mm ply or mdf it is very sturdy but I like the fact I can put loads in a box and carry it under one arm.

I did put a small order in with amera for craters and a couple of bits...will put down a larger order when I receive them to see if they fit with what I have and what I plan ect. thanks for the pics!! Now all I need is to figure out what to put in my mantic quadrant streets between the trenches, sandbags and (hopefully) curious constructs urban defence line...I can't imagine burnt out ground cars in 40k (not for fluff reasons but because they may not fit the aesthetic) so may do market stalls and the odd burnt out chimera (if I can bring myself to ill use such a vehicle)

Would be awesome to meet you if you do find yourself passing by, drop me a PM here or on FB if you do, I'll try and make sure I'm around! There are three of us running the store on a rota normally!
I dont currently have them listed as seperate items on the store no, but I do have a small surplus which I am planning on adding just as soon as I've got the chance! Same will apply to all the weapons!
