Also, would I need some brush on in the same colour to go over the edges? I've noticed the edges where they're laser cut are burned black.

Looks like it will work just fine:

I know that's what I'll be using...

I've used AP Primer to great effect. I believe it's the best canned spray on the market, due to it being actual primer and not just spray paint.
Spray 6" from the surface in even strokes; don't linger too long on one area as it'll get too thick. Two coats are better than one. Do not spray too far away as AP spray cans produce a finer particulate than most normal spray paints, and that smaller paint particle will dry faster in the air if it's further away than 6-8" or so and you'll get fuzzy paint.

Has recently done a review on BPLASERS Multi use building, or M.U.B. for short.

I especially like the roller door texture of those. It totally looks like the grating they roll over business windows and doors in cities.

Not really terrain, but I thought this was a fair venue for Infinity tools as well.

Considering no-one in the industry has an order-pool manager, we decided to step in with a handy tool!

Introducing the SharkStand, the new order-managing, tablet-holding, token-toting wargaming tool available only at Shark Mounted Lasers.

Not only does it hold your tablet (Of any size over 7"-We've tested the lot of them) but also has two order pool managers, a token holder for 10 of your most utilized chits (1"), and between it acts as a troop carrier between tables/sides.


When unpacked, the entire unit is under an inch thick, and easily fits in your gamebag.


Flip it over for miniature moving!


Available at http://www.sharkmountedlasers.com now!

That's a nifty little tool! I only use my iPad in the bathroom

I'm fairly sure toilet paper is the cheaper option.

iPads wipe clean.

They don't flush at all well and you can't read toilet paper.

That's a really nice piece of kit actually. Very useful, I've been wondering why no one was offering something like this. Btw, does the tablet holder take a rulebook?

Hmm having messed with it I don't think it would hold a rulebook stable. It works great for a tablet though and the order counters work FANTASTIC.

Speaking of Shark Mounted Lasers sadly this is like 1/5 of the Feast of Blades Infinity terrain.

Forgivable! I bet it would hold a few 'cheat sheets' though if they were card backed.

Whaa!? You going to start nesting for winter there bud?

Wow! Soon you'll need an R/C Forklift to move them around

This is the BEST Infinity board I've EVER seen.

This also seems like it would be a nice tool for Warmahordes...

Wow.. that is amazing!

Did you recognise where that terrain has come from, is it all scratch built?

Also, what surface does it look like they have used?

Whoever has used those unpainted minis on it though... (yes.. they should feel ashamed of themselves! )

That's all laser-etched wood man! I don't know the maker, but the modeller who made it put LOTS of extra special touches on it, like the glass in the windows, etc. I think the surface is a Woodland Scenics vinyl grass mat painted? I dunno.

Warmill, I think?

Or was it Warsenal?


Yes it was Warenal - http://warsen.al/

At least for some/most of it?

http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/545930.page

Warsenal it is!

Certainly looks the business!

That board is enough incentive to get me to buy Warsenal. If only I had the money, I'd be all over it right now.

In the meantime, I'll paint their dumpsters and Torii. :(

It's a zuzzy mat

It's truly gorgeous 13p. Be pleased. Be very pleased.

I like the logo on your bag in the background. Does the board have its own custom carrying cases?

Anyone know where I can get a nice plain grey gaming mat in 6' x 4'?

Something plain and unadorned, suitable for a not-destroyed urban setting?

Vinyl flooring?
I've seen a nice grey sofltly speckled 'granite' type surface - you really have to look at the surface, and on a gaming table, you should be looking at the opponents figures and terrain instead - so it might be suitable.

As a birthday present from my fiancee, I'm getting these:





With these two being ordered very soon.




I'm aiming to have a very varied board rather than just apartments, I'll be adding the waste center and medical facility from Warmill plus some more apartments. Basically I want to be able to fill out a 6x4 board pretty dense with a small suburb area with the mass transit port, a few 'corner stores' with waste disposal, and the medical facility as a good objective room.

Nice haul, Loki! Make sure to post pictures of your progress! I like the idea of a crossroads of transport links, people travelling through from all over and lots of goods lying around ready to be shipped... or stolen.

Very cool! Have to let us know how you get on with the noodle bar, have been meaning to get one of those for some time..

The bench at the metro stop looks great, but uncomfortable like the chairs at FlatTop grill

So, realistic then?

Bus stop benches and diner stools are never comfortable.

Gah! Why`d you have to point it out? It looked so good, but now I can't unsee the wonky bench! You'd slide right off the darn thing, and you can forget about setting your shopping down on it.

The problem comes from the scale the terrain is made for and the the fact that it's MDF of the same thickness as the rest of the kit (since it's all cut from the same bit of MDF).

The only way around it is either cut it from thinner MDF so it can be curved tighter or cast a resin or metal peice, which gets expensive for fixing a pretty trivial issue.

I'd much prefer stuff like this than everything being right angles, so I don't mind.
