Build Basalt Rock Columns for your Tabletop Game (2021) GameSmith S01E033
In this tutorial video, TheGameSmith presents a simple method for building basalt rock columns. Basalt rock columns are a strange and unique natural rock formation that we couldn’t resist trying to replicate for the game table. Since the primary building material is hexagonal wood pencils, the rock formations are very inexpensive to build. Additionally, because of the versatility of the sizes and shapes of formations that crafters can build, they are perfect for games such as Warhammer 40K, Dungeons and Dragons, Pathfinder, and many other games that use 28mm scale miniatures.
Whether you are an expert or novice tabletop builder this DIY tutorial will show crafters how they can create great scatter terrain with little or no experience and will hopefully give veteran crafters a few new ideas.
This tutorial is based on the use of simple and cheap materials with a focus on the best practices and tools for creating your own tabletop terrain. With just a few supplies and a few basic crafting techniques any tabletop crafter can create a great variety of basalt rock column scatter terrain that can be used hide an ambush, break sight lines, or impede movement through the area.
From all of us here at TheGameSmith, we hope you find this scatter terrain video informative and helpful. We’ll see you at the table!
