@Red - Indeed, I think that having ...Thanks folks!<br /><br />@Red - Indeed, I think that having multiple levels of cover adds a bit to the strategic aspect of the game; "Does this squad run to get into the heavy cover, or rely on the 6+ barricade and pump out some shots this turn?"<br /><br />@Musings of a Smurf - I'm definitely lucky to have a hobby loft that will hold an 8'x4' table (barely), however storing all the terrain is definitely a challenge. I'm always thinking how it would be awesome to do a bunch of 2'x2' tile sections ala Brian's Killzone tables, but there's no way I could store them. The Closet of Doom is big, but not THAT big!<br /><br />@DimmyK - The intact bunker-looking buildings are fairly simple multi-level foamcore constructs. The interiors are quasi-decorated with tile floors and elevators, and the levels are held together with rare-earth magnets to keep them from toppling over during the games and yet still allow for easy access to the interiors. I'll try to get some pictures of the insides during the game.<br /><br />@#2501 - I agree! The 'mirrored terrain' look, while ensuring that neither opponent has a particular cover advantage, tends to look very static and unrealistic. I much prefer to build the tables such that they make sense as a real-world location. ...So long as it's an urban location. Hey, it's what I have. :)Mordian7thhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04631987711681654113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3721613951987981892.post-32726569607545624142011-05-06T07:17:45.730-06:002011-05-06T07:17:45.730-06:00Mmmmm Slurm!

Nice to see someone who actually cares about making a slice of city.Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04264386981291406144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3721613951987981892.post-63992665350999703952011-05-06T01:50:13.074-06:002011-05-06T01:50:13.074-06:00LOVE IT!!!

I love the fact that you ...Table looks damn good!!<br /><br />I love the fact that you guys play with variable cover saves as well, we started out that way but the ork player decided to read the rulebook and decided that every bit of area terrain out side of the bunkers was 4+.<br /><br />I tend to agree that craters and stuff should be 5+.<br /><br />It doesn't help him with my Thunderfire cannons anyway though!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
