Love the terrain, absolutely can't justify spending that much on STL files however, especially considering it's personal use only. $700 plus for terrain STL files ? Yeah, nah.

You're absolutely right. I had to follow the general pricing of WargameForge. But after speaking to the owner, he's allowed me to give some pretty big discounts. You can use coupon code 8MM50 to get 50% off the price of the bundles for the STLs only (not for printed packs). Let me know if this helps!

This is really cool because I think smaller scale can really showcase a setting through the terrain. 3d printing seems like a way to support smaller creators that really enhance the hobby. I would love to see more terrain (and game systems) that captures unique locations such as underhives, cyberpunk cities, ash wastes, complex cavern systems, and mega space stations. I find that the dieselpunk industrial aesthetic that's so pervasive in current terrain sets doesn't fully capture the imaginative concepts found in 40k lore.

@CoverSlaves Жыл бұрын

Everything paints so much faster as well, for people who enjoy the end result of painting their stuff but always feel like its a slog at 28mm, all of a sudden it feels like nascar level faster. The world building also just explodes in possibilities past just dieselpunk/undustrial aesthetic you mention.

Now this is EPIC. I love War Scenery too. When I was younger, I think i would have liked 8mm just to get as much density as possible. But when i actually started, I didnt like how tiny and fiddly everything was, i wanted them big enough for me to appreciate and personalize while filling the table. Now Im finding that 8mm really suits what I want to see when I look at the table, density of terrain and hordes of soldiers

Hey guys, if you're looking to feature more small scale terrain for legions imperialis I'd highly recommend checking out the files from the lazy forger, grimdark terrain and bits blitz designs. Lazy forger has beyond incredible detail at scale, grimdark terrain is an entire modular system that expands every month and bits blitz has a tone of tiny dudes ships and crates that can help world build and fit well as little civies and milita/gangers for cities. Looking forward to seeing more small scale stuff :)

The fact that you're selling the stuff in a physical form absolutely sells it for me. I barely have enough time without 3d printers for my hobby as is, so needing to invest in one just to partake in so many of the great designs for minis and terrain people have been putting out is just about impossible to justify. Sincerely, thank you for not just leaving everything as only .stl files that I can really only just look at.

With how excited Matt is for Legion Imperialis i hope MWG plays a good amount of games of it. While i'm interested in the game already having Titans from Titanicus and it making a great excuse to buy a Maruader bomber or 2 i worry it'll just be like Titanicus and Aeronautica. Some play and support at the start then fall off with no one playing. Even on MWG Titanicus is like a once in a few months type of thing.

@beng4939 Жыл бұрын

No, they're correct in saying that there is huge variance in old epic models, yes the closest baseline is about 6mm on infantry, but there's variance there too. I think the fairest thing to say is 6mm makes other stuff like titans look even bigger by comparison while as 8mm can make a titan adjacent to it look a bit less impressive. This tends to matter more in terms of basing. The issue for GW won't be the new scale, it will be how do they increase perceived value for a big box of like 6 taks that used to be 12 dollars, metal, and fit in a little blister pack. Aeronautica had that problem, the big boxes were an ok value but the the individual unit boxes were like "who wants 4-6 planes for 60$?".

@littleBIGrobots Жыл бұрын

I'm always shocked when gamers, who can often be the most annoyingly accurate exact rule-lawyer people there are, are OK with using a measurement as a scale. I mean, I get it -- when Hasbro says "6 inch scale" they mean 1/12. They just gave a scale a nickname. But it does us all no good. When this video (which is great btw) says "___ mm scale is because the average dude is 6 feet" we are supposed to then know the height of every character in our game? Just get a unit of measurement and stick by it, like 6" = 1 inch, so it's ____ scale. People are all confused by this because there is no standard of scale from before. I know they use bases more so than model height, but that doesn't help. Anyway, just hate it as a toy collector when someone says "5 inch scale" or something. It's like, what does 5 inches equal, in which line?" lol
