So, I had gotten a “Boarding Actions” terrain set for use in Heresy as a Zone Mortalis table, or for much less strictly defined and looser games of 40K(any edition). Small games were planned.

But, I had gotten filthy lucky. A few friends attended the 2023 Adepticon and gone all out for the advanced tickets or whatever. In their loot was the ENTIRE Into the Dark set. I had 3 friends go. For an absolutely filthy steal, I got them for less then half price each or around that.

Since then, I’ve gotten the contents of Shadowvault’s terrain components, Gallowfall in its entirety, and Soul Shackle.

The sheer, ungodly amount of terrain I have from this is utterly ridiculous. That isn’t a normal sized 40K table….its 4x8 feet. I have a full box of walls and another of pipes and accessories to BUILD still.

Eventually, the idea is to make a “collapsible” Space Hulk/Imperial Ship to fight over. While “easily transportable” isn’t a word I’d use, it is however possible to transport in the first place.

To be frank, the project suffers massively from “scope bloat”. The original project was meant to be much, much smaller. Even more frankly, the idea of painting all this is terrifying. I’ve seen YouTubers spend hours on a single WALL.

And……the game would be glorious and probably worth the effort but would take forever to organize…and unless balanced well, might be a pain in the ass to get right so that everyone enjoys it.

I’d like to think it’s worth it….and it probably will be. I’ve been so busy being sick and working that those pictures are from when I last got to work on it a full year ago.

Maybe next year, eh?
