Mr. White Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 I'm in the process of converting and painting my models, but here's the terrain we're using for the time being. It's the old Mage Knight Dungeons artifact sets. Durable, prepainted plastic that can be tossed in the box with no fuss on chipping or breaking. Bits can be arranged all sorts of ways on the boards. Sacrifice to Nagash at the Kataphrane altar! Brawl in the Mead hall! Discover...The Pools of Radiance! Easy to pack away and store! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BunkhouseBuster Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 Hey, hex-based maps. I just had an idea! Let's see if it works out... On 10/29/2017 at 2:19 PM, Attackmack said: They are 52mm flat-to-flat. 52mm, eh? So some quick conversion work tells me that makes them 2.04 inches flat-to-flat then. In that case, let me check Hirst Arts molds, I know they have hex-tiles available... Aha! Hirst Arts does have 2 inch flat-to-flat hex tiles! http://www.hirstarts.com/molds/m182.pdf http://www.hirstarts.com/rockhex/rockhex.html So anyone who is into casting their own stuff, here you go! I still haven't tried it out, but if I make the full plunge into Shadespire, these molds might be cool to get for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wallack Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 Order this: https://www.ebay.ie/itm/2mm-MDF-Wargaming-Base-Bases-Round-Square-Rectangular-Hexagonal-Octagonal/182626899121?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&var=485187785059&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649 And choose 60mm because is corner to corner no flat to flat. I have them and they fit exactly (even in the cardboard sprue that I still keep). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sim Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Slow progress but one terrain piece made! By the way this is based on the hexagon linked in the post above. Exact size for the board Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sim Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 Found it on eBay searching “warhammer statue”. I have the statue from the gardens of morr to do next. They will brighten my board, in a grim way of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sim Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 The boards I ordered turned up today... apologies for the terrible photography but those making their own might find these useful. They also sell a set of impassable hex sized pieces. I want to teach my young children to play as an activation game, these will save wear and tear on the official boards! Might spray them grey with the terrain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sleboda Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 Has there been a GW statement about converted models in "offical" tournaments? As cool as it is to see these nifty conversions, I have not modded mine at all out of concern for being dq'd or confusing my opponents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As cool as it is to see these nifty conversions, I have not modded mine at all out of concern for being dq'd or confusing my opponents. With the unofficial tournament rules 'leak' it's basically suggested that weapon swaps are okay but conversions have to be made from the original model and the TO has to approve of it. Locally the GW manager was cool with my conversions and frankly think a lot of it goes as long as you indeed see the original models where used and characters are clearly visible representing who they should. So I'd avoid full race/gender/weapon swapping. Also see the attachment below. Warhammmer_Underworlds_Winter2017_OP_Support.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sleboda Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 Thanks for the reply and the doc. Yeah, I think I'll avoid any sort of converting if I plan to play competitively, which I do. I mean, just look at Basha. It might feel cool to arm him with two huge swords, but all that make him different from Cutta, really, is the clubs vs swords. No matter how cool, it's just confusing. Those poor Bloodbuddies are especially hard. And the Skeletons? Not a ton of difference between Petitioners and the Champion and the Prince. So - If your competitive foes are used to the quick visual reference of the game pieces (remember, in no way at all has GW marketing this as a hobby game) and you interfere with that recognition, even a little, it can be an unwarranted advantage. In a tight game, that may give the converter a win he or she should not have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
