I love this. I’ve been having a blast making my own terrain. I’m using the nice box for indomitus cut to shape as the base. I use hot glue to attach any styrofoam to the base. Works with 3D printed ruins aswell. Then Grout mixed with pva glue and water and paint of your choice such as tan for sand or grey for concrete. This Seals the foam and while is still wet you can add a nice dusting of choice to add basing. Grass or actual sand rocks. Moss vines etc. Fun easy way to craft some terrain. I’ll use a standard gaming mat under

So let me ask this: HOW modular are they? There's one thing to print them out based on something you laid out or a predesigned table, but the modular-ness I'm aiming for is to have the tiles line up in several different ways to help avoid repetition. I want to see a tile with say 8x8 grid and if half of one edge is elevated 2" then it's able to line up with any other opposing tile at that height. Is that the case? I mean you'd still need quite a few tile options, but it opens it up quite a bit if you have that level of connectivity.

Looks pretty cool. Will the stl files be available for purchase later on or are they only available for the kickstarter? Also another thing is most the files are 8x8 which makes them pretty large as most resin printers have a smaller build plate than this.

Hey there! First question: yes, the STL files will be available at regular retail value on our website once we have completed fulfillment for the Kickstarter (fulfillment is scheduled for April 2024). Second question: all Terrainify STL files are designed for FDM printing, so it was FDM printer bed sizes we had in mind when choosing the 8x8 inch size. We hope to break into resin printing in the future, but as PLA is so much more affordable for this size of project, that's what we are focusing on now!

Right now, all our files are designed specifically for FDM printing, so we can't guarantee your results for resin printing. That said, I have heard from people who printed smaller models of ours in resin successfully. It just depends on the model and your own comfort with adjusting settings and knowing the risk. You can always buy any of our models already printed, but if you have a printer that is probably not your vibe! Feel free to contact us with more questions.

I love the idea - my only grip is that you went from having 4 seams throughout your entire board to many more every few inches. I wonder if it'd be possible to devise an interlocking system that does a better job at hiding the seams for the one they print themselves they could easily do 12x12 (still easy to store) but for print-it-yourself it's not as common (9x9 would be sweet though)

Good question! We use rubber bumpers on the bottom of the tiles (like the kind you'd put on a cabinet door or drawer), one in each corner, and they work really well to keep everything stable. If you use a felt or fabric covered table, you won't even need the bumpers (found that out at a demo we did at a local game shop!).

Hey there! I think in the video Matthew says they took them 2-3 days to print and paint (so, less than that to print), but I'm not sure how many printers they were using. On our Bambu P1P printers, one tile takes 7-12 hours to print at 0.2mm layer height and 6% infill (we use gyroid) - time depends on the size of the tile. P1Ps are a fair bit faster than older printers, which could take up to twice as long to print the tiles. Hope that helps!

Unpopular opinion: Nothing new to see here, just the most recent execution of it (and pretty expensive, too). We’ve been making 12”x12” modular tiles from foam core board or foam insulation almost since WFB and Rogue Trader dropped several decades ago as an extension of the craft from making D&D boards for our Grenadier miniatures! Way cheaper and easier than trying to tote around model railroad setups all over town! And (blasphemy alert) we even made boards to fight on that weren’t perfect rectangles or squares! Ya’ll just got comfortable playing on the size and shape that GW TOLD you to play on in the way they told you to play with only the buildings or such that they sold you (how many of you all forgot that hills even exist?)! And then GW went and made the boards smaller, further relieving folks from the burden of having to think about how to conduct maneuver warfare! News flash: It’s ALWAYS been fun to fight somewhere other than the heart of the city or the edge of the forest, and even on aysemetrical battlefields!

Matthew is referring to the cost of the STL files ($99 on the Kickstarter for the 6x4 table) being much less expensive than the cost of ordering a custom full table of terrain. But yes, we do have to charge more if you order the models already printed and/or painted, due to materials, staffing, shipping and wear and tear on our printers. However, storage is pretty easy - all 54 tiles for a full 6x4 table fit in four 17x17x9 shipping boxes (about the size of a small end table, total).
