**Guildsman**

Wow. Makes the GW one look like Playskool.

**Bloodwin**

It's pretty but at £82 I would expect it to be bloody good. However It depends what game you aree using it for. I't fine for skirmishes but you'd have to leave out a lot of detail or make blocked out inserts if you wanted to use it for WHFB. I love what these guys do but it's way pricey I'm not complaining about the price as it is high quality but I'd rather buy the GW scenery and not panic every time someone touches it.

**aka_mythos**

This is some really nice terrain. If I ever had the coin for it, this easily some of the nicest... but I don't think its in my future.

I would wonder what the world was coming to if Playskool made a graveyard set.

**Chibi Bodge-Battle**

That would be Playskul? Anyway what sort of example is that spelling school with a k?

Love that graveyard but as per the cost is too high for my empty pockets *boo hoo*
To be fair walls and railings don't come cheap unless you can get some suitable Halloween ones.
In fact I was watching some Playskool park sets on ebay and even secondhand were not cheap. So factor in the chapel and masonary etc and the price ain't far off the mark.

**nkelsch**

Wow, this stuff is amazing. Makes me wish mordheim was still active and popular as I loved playing that on tables with jam-packed fantasy city terrain like this.

**mikhaila**

Yep, I thought the same thing. Would love to have a whole city of this stuff. Have always wanted something like this. Might have to resurrect Mordheim next summer for a campaign. Need time to paint first.)

Just sent these boys a long letter, a starting order, and a plea for a wholesale account to carry their line in my store. Now that we've moved up to bigger digs, I've got space available to devote to more showcases and high end gaming bits. This stuff is fantastic.

I am sad every time you post something about your store because it is not near me and sounds (and looks from pictures) awesome

**olympia**

This is the best scenery I've ever seen. If I ever become wealthy I will buy a gakload of it.

**Ehsteve**

Too bad the graveyard walls are part of the model base

could have sold me that instead of the Garden or Morr if it was more modular. I will be getting those houses, supplies and furnature though. Don't know how long I've been looking for generic cart models, fantastic!

**Chibi Bodge-Battle**

Could be possible to make the walls modular Ehsteve, depending on how it goes together.

**Commander Cain**

I would love some of this stuff just to paint up and display somewhere, truly incredible sculpts!

Only with a good knife, as the floor is one piece

**Chibi Bodge-Battle**

Was kind of assuming that was the case Kroot, but you could potentially use the walls seperately.
If they have nice flat bottoms.

That would leave the base sides open if you wanted and use the walls somewhere else as required.

Not saying it would be too easy or people might not want to mess around when the cost is high but for the creative mind attached to a hand with a razor saw... MWHAHAHAHAHA! *mad scientist*

**Pipboy101**

I think I just messed myself alittle. I think I know what I am buying once my khador is done.

Let me know how this goes.. I might have to pick up some demo stuff from you

Toilet paper?
Diapers?

Whatever you do, don't shine a black light at me. My shorts would glow brighter than a law & order SVU crime scene after seeing that terrain.

Good point on price..and quality. In this case I think the quality is above gaming standard. It seems to be more diorama/scale model level than gaming grade. In this case I actually see that as a negative...its just too nice for gaming...if that makes any sense.

**Kroothawk**

The Mausoleum is now available separately as well (23€):

**Ratius**

Some very nice stuff but at nearly €100 for the GY kit its a definite pass.
You can nearly get 3 Garden of Mors for that and despite the subtle GW bashing going on, the kits quality wise do not have that much difference, espeically if you had 3 GoMs that you could arrange in various ways. The best thing about the TTW kit is the tree.

**Kroothawk**

The Garden of Morr is a nice plastic kit by a big company, this is a small run resin kit by two guys in a garage or something. The resin kit was startet before GW announced the plastic kit. I think both are valuable additions to Fantasy gaming tables.

Small update:

Tabletop World wrote:The Blacksmith's Forge was finished yesterday. Now we have to make molds of it. Hopefully it will be released by the end of the next week.

We like all of your suggestions but we decided that our next few projects will slightly differ from what we've done so far. We'll make series of more simple buildings that will be much more affordable to gamers and hobbyists. When we say more simple, we don't mean that it will be less detailed, the level of details will be on the same level if not even better. What we mean is, these buildings have to be designed in a way that they allow fast casting and remolding. That is the only way to significantly lower the price of the models. These models will have interior but it won't be fully modeled. We find that modeled interior is not of big importance to most of the gamers and in the same time, it is what makes the buildings hard to cast and remold thus more expensive. We are aiming for worldwide distribution with these products 'cause we will finally be able to offer good enough margin to distributors and retailers.

However, in the future we do plan to continue with more complex and exclusive buildings with multiple parts as well - buildings like Ruined Coaching Inn. These buildings will be available exclusively through our webshop.

Finally a new release. Blacksmith’s Forge (88€):

**scarletsquig**

Gorgeous, as always!

If I ever end up with my own gaming room, these are all getting bought and painted up nicely.

Can't wait for them to start doing ruins again so I can get some really good mordheim terrain.

**ironicsilence**

Stuff makes me think of dwarven forge...super sexy but way out of my price range

**Ehsteve**

Must...resist...beautiful D&D terrain...

Would be awesome to see the interior furnishings as a seperate item (being able to buy all the discarded weapon pieces/work benches seperately).

**Kroothawk**

ironicsilence wrote:Stuff makes me think of dwarven forge...super sexy but way out of my price range

As said, future models will have no interior details (can be bought separately) and will be cheaper.

**Kroothawk**

Tabletop World just released a small affordable cottage (26,50€):
http://tabletop-world.com/cottage.php

**scarletsquig**

Love it, and also love the fact that they're making a line of terrain that I can afford.

This cottage is nearly the same price as GW terrain (now that we've had a massive price hike on all of it), and much better looking!

**Orlanth**

I have little problem with the pricetag, the buildings have full interiors and some are as big as Titans. Anyone imagine what Forgeworld would charge for them.

The guard tower is massive, its taller than a Forgeworld Reaver, and nearly as wide.
