[Dude]

I feel a little late to the party, but just want to echo that the command bunker looks great. Looking forward to other (more affordable) pieces

BTW, would you do different colors for the acrylic display-type pieces? I'm partial to blues, myself.

[valthonis]

If you're referring to the Tech Consoles and Communication Array they already have color options. Blue, Green, Yellow, Orange, and Pink!

We could also do them in the radiant acrylic that we use for the TO markers but those would be a little more expensive as that material is even more pricey than the fluorescent. Could make for a cool alien style looking console though. We'll do a prototype and post some pics.

[Berjiz]

The bunker is beutiful. Really like the comm tower to.

[Magno]

I just got my order two days ago.
Turn around was blitz fast. Stuff is great.

Mr scatter terrain. I recommend taking some inspiration from Opportunity city in Birderlands 2.

[Warsenal]

I love the "radiant" TO camo/screen (I'd love them even more if they were Nanoscreen-sized;)) markers. Are they 2-piece, or solid with the base?

The Holo Shield Markers are intended to be used as Nano Shields. They are the same size as nano screen markers, and are two parts, as the base is a clear acrylic that the the radiant part fits into.

I took a look, looks like some good aspects to pull from!

Yeah the bunker screams Hyperion to me. Now we need some portapotties filled with guns!

Two days ago?!? Where are your completed-and-fully-painted-playing-with-awesome pics?

We're going to keep rolling in this thread for updates if that's okay with everyone.

To kick off wave 2 we're starting with what every table can never have too much of...Shipping Containers! Lovingly referred to as Y.A.K.S (Yet Another Kontainer System) internally, we tried to take the standard containers and make them more functional on the table.

http://warsen.al/products/large-shipping-containers





Stackable in every possible way with slots on top and bottom to keep them in place. Plus removable doors on all sides mean your minis will never get trapped inside. Who among us hasn't picked up a container to get the mini inside only to watch it slide right out the other...





We've also got small containers:

Since the doors are all removable, we did some stencilled doors to help guide people in painting.

http://warsen.al/products/container-doors



We've also got some nice barricades that work stand alone, or on top of the containers.

http://warsen.al/collections/28mm/products/barricades





Designed specifically with missions in mind, we have a 12 pack of Escape Pods.

http://warsen.al/products/escape-pod



We feel you can never have too much scatter so we're going to keep doing a ton of it. To round out this release we have the Bus Stop.

[valthonis]

Awesome!

The bus stops are great, but the containers will help me complete my industrial/slum side of town.

[Dude]

I'm not very fond of the bus stop. Have you considered making some acrylic walls for them? Gives you a chance to up the sci-fi feel as well as block out more LoF on the table.

The containers, however, are excellent. You really knocked it out of the park with this one. I'm resigning myself to making an order in the near future.

[Dude]

oh, and the escape pods are neat. I like the price, too.

Good point, an acrylic back/sides will greatly help with blocking LoF.

Yep, acrylic signs are coming for the bus stops. They are already designed to hold them

Glad you like the containers!

[Magno]

I just got some of these containers and they are awesome as hell!

<Mr. Torgue voice>
They're f**kin' badass so get you some!

These containers have a great scale and are versatile.
They fit in the center portions of my Warmill corridor set, they mate up easily to other scratch built buildings, they are perfect scatter terrain and are wayyyyyy better than the prototypical shipping containers because of the removable doors.

I also dig the suppression fire markers. We use them as scenario based nano shield elements.

[Levitas]

Really digging this stuff, containers look great. Looking forward to seeing more, specially other buildings etc.

[kidterminal]

Many here know I'm not a shipping container fan, but those are nice! I like the bus shelter a lot too.

[JTM93]

I like the Containers as they are able to be opened up.

Random Question: Has any objective person got a Comparison of the Templates & Markers compared to the Official Ones?

[valthonis]

I ordered some camo markers so I can compare them to the cardboard ones if you'd like. I can also give my opinion on them compared to the MAS ones, but I no longer have MAS tokens to do a direct side by side comparison.

[valthonis]

Warsenal mentioned in my review thread that they hope to have designs on their small buildings wrapped up this week and painting next week. *Fingers crossed*

Don't worry I have mine crossed too.

Wave 3 Pre-orders

At the core of the system are two buildings which we're calling Alpha and Beta. These two buildings are designed on the same frame and share the same core wall designs. The main difference is one has a short front and one has a tall front. This allows for some interesting variations in design.



We wanted the two shapes to work with each other every which way but we didn't want any boxes. What we've come up with is a wedge shape that allows for some really unique layouts on the table. The configurations really do feel infinite. Alpha fits on top of Beta and vice-versa. Alpha fits next to Beta (because it flips upside down!) to make straight pieces or you can put multiple Alpha's or Beta's next to each other to create curves in any direction.





In order to make the the buildings go any direction we had to make all of the walls removable. This had some interesting side effects. Namely it allowed us to sell individual facades so you could transform your buildings as you're setting up the table. Not to mention making it easy to get to that first floor building of your four story skyscraper without taking off all of the upper levels.

This flexibility comes at the price of having to magnetize each wall. This step is totally optional but we feel like if you take that extra step you'll be really glad you did. In play testing the facades all just jump into place and you really have to experience it to appreciate it. It also makes storage a lot easier.

We have some big plans for this system. We have many, many different types of buildings and facades coming very soon. We didn't want to hold off getting something out there as soon as possible though. That's why this time we're taking preorders for these new pieces. All preorders will start shipping on July 15th on a first come first served basis. These pieces are done so there will be no delays, we just didn't want to wait another month to start showing off what we've been working on.

Thanks for looking!

[kidterminal]

Wow Bill that's a revolutionary idea here I can't wait to see them on the table.

Thanks! We'll have some table pics to share this week.

[surprize]

This looks really cool stuff. I think in some ways the possibilities here are more than can be easily demonstrated in the pictures. I get the feeling there is a lot more to come from this concept.

The only thing is - for the 2 storey buildings - are the 1st floors sloping? It looks really cool from the outside, just wondering about in-game.

There is a piece to level the floor

[valthonis]

Very cool and unique terrain you guys have got there! Can't wait to see some pictures of full table layout!

[Lampyridae]

Kinda pricey but when you consider that it's effectively the same footprint as 2 MAS buildings, I reckon it's worth it. It also has a lot of character and actually looks "lived in" as opposed to virtually all the other stuff, which, although it looks nice, is about as sterile as the surface of the moon!

The gubbins around it also make it much practical from a cover POV.

[Saker]

Gibbons is dangerous!
