The three new terrain sets hitting the GW shelves this weekend have rules. It turns out fighting in an operational Imperial refinery violates many safety protocols 🙂

Hmm, improved cover, but watch out for the energy flares!

Sector Mechanicus Galvanic Magnavent $75

A collection of walkways, turbines, supporting beams and chimney stacks, the Galvanic Magnavent can be assembled in myriad different configurations, from a ring of walkways to a meandering stretch of raised gangway, and anything in between. The legs that hold up the walkways can be attached via the plug-in holes – re-arrange them to your heart’s content, and glue them in place for a super-solid structure when you’ve found your perfect configuration. The kit features balustrades which can be clipped on to the edges of the walkways – perfect for providing cover – and there’s a huge, skull-shaped winching mechanism which can hang under whichever walkway you choose. Rules are included for using this scenery piece in games of Warhammer 40,000.

This kit contains 4 frames of plastic components – one featuring the central silo and chimneys, one filled with walkways, one filled with floors and details and one featuring the legs to hold the structure aloft – and is compatible with every other kit in the Sector Mechanicus range, meaning massive, multi-level, labyrinthine structures can be built for your battle to be fought on. They can even be combined with the Haemotrope Reactor, Promethium Relay Pipes and Void Shield Generator. Your imagination is the only limit – no two gaming tables ever need look the same!

 

Hmm, a trend is developing -improved cover, but random hits as well. 

Sector Mechanicus Ferratonic Furnace $50

A large silo possibly filled with unmentionable chemicals, toxic waste or items too sinister to dwell upon, the Ferratonic Furnace provides an excellent platform for miniatures to battle on – as well as being stackable, and usable as supports for walkways. It’s covered in incredible details, with armoured panels and turbines making up the bulk of the structure. The door to the silo itself can be modelled open or closed, with the detail on the door being an especial standout with its complex locking mechanism visible. There are plenty of pipes, chains and winches included, which can be clipped in and out of place wherever you like using the plug-in holes beneath the gantries, and each piece of the kit features an Adeptus Mechanicus maker’s plate. Rules are included for using this scenery piece in games of Warhammer 40,000.

This kit contains 2 frames of plastic components – one featuring the silo, and one filled with platforms and walkways – and is compatible with every other kit in the Sector Mechanicus scenery range, meaning massive, multi-level-labyrinthine structures can be built for your battle to be fought on. They can even be combined with the Haemotrope Reactor, Promethium Relay Pipes and Void Shield Generator. Your imagination is the only limit – no two gaming tables ever need look the same!

Trend developed – DANGER WILL ROBINSON! Fighting in industrial sectors is quite dangerous.

Sector Mechanicus Alchomite Stack $50

The Alchomite Stack is a series of chimneys evoking the acrid, pollution-thick atmosphere that the dark industry of a forge world creates. Incredibly modular, the kit features a central dome and several chimneys: you have the option of assembling any of the included chimneys onto this, and either modelling the others as separate, independent pieces of terrain or attaching them to the exhaust vents on the side. Every piece in the Alchomite Stack kit is covered in detail, from Adeptus Mechanicus makers plates to cogs, valves and part designations. There’s a great deal here for a hobbyist to get their modelling teeth into! Rules are included for using this scenery piece in games of Warhammer 40,000.

This kit contains 2 frames of plastic components – one containing the components for the central dome, and one containing components for the external tank – and is compatible with every other kit in the Sector Mechanicus scenery range, meaning massive, multi-level, labyrinthine structures can be built for your battles to be fought on. They can even be combined with the Haemotrope Reactor, Promethium Relay Pipes and Void Shield Generator. Your imagination is the only limit – no two gaming tables ever need look the same!

 

~What do you think of the rules? They look quite dangerous to me.
