This has got to be the best damned deal I've EVER seen.  Ever.

Yeah- you read that right.  Oh, and shipping?  $24 CDN for DHL Globalmail to deliver this from Australia to my home in Canada.  That's it- for a giant stack of wood to be shipped pretty much as far as possible between two points on Earth :p

Holy crap!  I'm going to have to buy this and I know for a fact that I have no where to put it in my apartment, but I just can't risk it not being available when I get the space.

That IS pretty damned impressive. Depending on your own personal hourly rate, you couldn't make a table yourself for cheaper. Factor in your time, planning, materials... Damn.
Get a couple of those and you have a 4 by 6 table... And more layout opportunities.

I saw this on warseer and commented there. The aussies have it good because of not only shipping but on the charge itself.

$100 AU translates to under $80 USD. But if you pick your region there, you now have to pay $106 USD plus shipping. So that makes it over $233 USD for enough to cover a 6x4 table.

Its not overly exorbitant, but $50 higher than Iii was expectiing it to be.

It does specify on their site about the conversion policy and being charged actual $AU, but I am not willing to take the risk.

It is nice stuff though. Great for a TAU board. All you need to do is dry brush the thing and its ready to go.

After thinking about this, it would be great if they sold the roads alone, as the little add-on panels I dont really like because of the tau flavor. (theyre not bad, theyre great actually, I am just not into the style)

If they sold the roads alone, they would have a deal at the appropriate price.

The warstore carries a selction of there stuff. He doesn't have these yet but give it a little time and you can get it from Neal. That guy is about as dependable as the sun.

Aye, I'm interested in getting some CNC sand buildings, and saw that the WarStore USD prices are not only cheaper, but you're only paying that $3.95 flat shipping he charges ... beautiful!

I've gotten some of the sand buildings and the execution and layout is really nice. I'm not sure how I feel about this stuff though. I like my cities to be 3-D and once you start putting stuff (like buildings) on top of these blocks I could basically get the same look a lot cheaper.

yup Neal should have it some time soon. I directed the compnay to Neals attention a while back after talking with them and finding out that they were looking for an American distributor and he got the stuff in in short order. I have 3 of the drop pods and 6 of the adobe style buildings, they are all very sturdy top notch items. Well worth the envestment, they take a little work to look just right for me but again will worth it when they are done. I will so be adding thise to my collection in the new year!

I think this table is just fantastic. I keep checking back on this thread and I love that table more each time I see it.

It's releases like this that keep me interested in wargaming even though I haven't played a game in a few years (school eats up my life and destroys my chances of spending 4 hours straight at a hobby shop!).

I agree Drake Marcus. I have not played 40k in over a year, but this keeps my hopes high!
