Subject: Budget Terrain from Angry Mojo, 32mm bases; 20 for $3, Batman scatter terrain, Infinity templates

Which game? We cater to pretty much everyone we can, if there's a system we're missing I'm all about catering to them.
There are actually a few things I will be using it for. One is a modification of Gruntz for 28mm. Another is going to be based on Deadzone (minus cubes) for XCom. There's another that is scenario based but basically the premise will be anime type scenarios. I have a 28mm scaled GiTS spider tank, several 1/48 mecha, and am working on my collection of 28mm sci-fi humans. So a lot of near future type stuff with some hard sci-fi. That's a personal project I'm designing but my main point is I have been needing good reliable modern buildings that have some bulk to them and seem more or less realistically scaled.
The Gruntz modification will allow for things like my Crooked Dice Ghost Busters fighting my ginormous Stay Puft Marshmallow man or my 1/48 military models to square off against a War of the Worlds Tripod Walker which is 15" tall.
There might be some 40k, Void, Infinity, etc played on it at some point but I try to steer anything that would be Grimdark away from that setting since I'm pretty burned out on it.

Pretty full plate. If you do your scenario, please take some pics. We're getting a user gallery up and running. The more the merrier!

It'll be a while, my stuff is packed for a move in August. Would you be terribly offended if such pictures were to also include the other terrain ranges I mentioned? Eventually I plan to have a table that is a fairly realistic city block or two using terrain like yours and some model railroad terrain as well.

I wouldn't be offended at all, I'll even give a small shout out to the manufacturer of the other terrain. The best urban tables I've seen have a variety of buildings. I've got more designs in the works for differing architecture styles, my Batman tables currently just have the Markham City buildings and look more like the communist bloc than a Gotham City block.
lol, awesome
I'll be looking into the Batman game too, not really sure where the rules are but I'll probably just re-base some heroclix. I have a 1/43 die-cast batmobile too so it should be good times

It's by a Spanish company called Knight Models. The first edition rulebook is available for free online, the second edition just came out. I've been having a lot of fun with it. The models individually come with a high price tag, but the sculpts are fantastic. And you don't need to many of them, a full tournament list can include Batman, Nightwing, Tim Drake, and Damian Wane. And that's a very effective list.
MLaw wrote: Would it be too much of a stretch to play it with re-based Heroclix? They're pretty much the right scale (I think).
I'll have a look for that rulebook thatnks for the heads up
I've seen a few people try the game out with rebased Heroclix. It's a good way to make sure you like it before investing. They're close to the same size.
I was looking at the Heroclix I have.. I already have Batman, Robin, Azrael, Joker, Harley, Penguin, Poison Ivy, and all kinds of goons and cops/SWAT guys. The problem is, I looked through the rulebook and I don't see the cards for the characters anywhere :/
Anyway.. I look forward to your future releases, I have you bookmarked and once this move is done I will start sandbagging some cash for a big Christmas order

You can find the data cards at bat-builder.com.
We'll have some really cool stuff up by Christmas as well!
So, with Age of Sigmar on the shelves, we're looking to make some stuff for it. Outside of a measuring widget, I'm having trouble with ideas. Give me inspiration, community!
We have some releases up. Check these out.
The Spanish Mission runs $50.
$50 for the Boomtown too.
This office building for Markham City will set you back $25.
15 bases, 40mm, $3.
A lone 80mm base is only $1.
I'd post some WWX minis for scale if I had any. The detailed photos all have some Reaper figs on 30mm round lipped bases, that's what we designed them for. Should work great.

It was good to meet you there, Mojo!

I really love your stuff, and I don't want to be negative, but there is nothing particularly arcane or ruined about your arcane ruins.
They look like some sadomasochist race, like Dark Eldar, would have built them, with all the hooks and sharp corners. They are not bad, but I don't think the name goes with the design.
When I read Arcane Ruins, I'm expecting crumbling walls with sigils here and there. A ruined Wizards tower, a summoning circle, henges, etc.. stuff that would look like it belonged on a Frostgrave or KoW table.

Going to have to agree with this one. I think its a great building but the name doesnt suit it at all.
On a different note if you were to build a crumbling tower with sigils marked into it that would be pretty amazing, both great for fantasy or lets say an old tower where resurrectionists tried to summon something (Malifaux junkie here).

Subject: Re:Terrain, Accessories, and Videos from Angry Mojo, Huge set of Arcane Ruins up.
The name originally sat as a placeholder, and it just stuck. As a side note, I do have plans to make a Malifaux set based on the quarantine zone. What with my ressers and all. Bias!
