Battle Systems - Modular Tabletop 3D Gaming Sci-Fi Terrain - Perfect for 28mm-35mm Miniatures and Figures - No Painting Required - Science Fiction Aliens 40K Wargame (Trader Encampment)

I wasn’t expecting this set to be as great as it is for the price. Only 60 bucks and it come with more than enough terrain bits to play full 2000 points games of 40K with. The mat is a super nice bonus and makes for a great 500 point game or a kill team board. I’m very happy with this set and will definitely buy more from battle systems in the future. Just be carful folding some of the half cuts, the cardboard can tear, and the only instructions are on YouTube which is kind of annoying but not the end of the world. But other than those two issues I’m very happy with this set, and it has some great little detail pieces that add personality.

Let me start by saying the customer service is great. Got back to me in around two hours in the middle of the night. The product itself looks great finished. It's a little pricy, and it can be overwhelming building your first one. There's a video on YouTube for setting it up. I recommend this.

there is no way you'll figure out how it goes together otherwise

Item shipped quickly and was exactly as described

I'm torn on this review. The trader stuff is very nice and once assembled looks great. But I banged my head against the wall trying to build it until I found the review above me saying you must watch their build tutorial on their website. Do that, especially if this is your first product of theirs like this was mine. It's not super durable stuff too so be gentle with it when removing from the sprew and assembling. Honestly I recommend a little super glue as well and so do they to ensure it stays pristine and looks good. What has me most torn was the alien portion was essential Legos. Tons of random mismatched pieces they throw at you as say go crazy assembling. It uses their plastic connectors to do so which appear jarring and are easily visable when the ruins are completed. They also have tons of points to connect the pieces so if you don't use that slot it's just a open slice that looks tacky. After doing some correctly I tried gluing it together instead and using that TONS of rubble they give you with some glue to cover some spots and reinforce points and that looked better. They don't provide enough plastic connectors in my opinion anyway. Need more L shaped ones for sure. I would by their human sci-fi stuff again now that I understand it. I won't by their alien terrain pieces again though.

You get a lot of terrain but the cut quality is horrible. Be prepared to exacto knife every piece of terrain. My original core space were amazing quality. My last 3 battlesystems sets have been poor quality as far as the fit. Great print quality and looks good. But not worth the time to trim with 3D printers and other terrain out there.

how are you supposed to put it together without instructions? its way to many bits to have to think on your own how to put it together. I have better things to spend my limited brain power on. online videos don't count either. it should come with instructions.

Great looking and very useful for gaming. Unless you've built their products before plan on building these in front of a computer so you can have their 'how to' video's on.

Excellente qualité de produit, pour le boardgame Judge Dredd, le top

Bought the trading camp for use in Necromunda. This arrived yesterday afternoon and is now fully built and ready for use within a couple of hours of landing on my doorstep. I was looking for terrain for gaming. I had looked at plastic terrain, it would look better and be more hard wearing but would require a bigger investment in time to get it on the table and costs a lot more. MDF terrain is reasonably priced but again takes time to build and paint to get it on the table. I enjoy painting miniatures but never enjoy painting terrain, tried building my own terrain from videos online but just wasn’t happy with the end result. The card in this set is good quality, there were two parts I rushed slightly and the outer laminate started to come loose but it glued back down and there is no visible damage. The online video with assembly instructions was easy to find and follow. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to spend more time gaming, it’s quick, easy and good value. I will definitely be getting more of this to fill out a bigger table.

Pas de notice construire la base

Science fiction, or a near future war zone. I bought it for Stargrave a deser a bombed shipyard or a fight to occupy an asteroid perhaps some nutty slack if you can scounge some black rock will always look good for the floor of these items. Don’t get any on the carpet 😡

As a miniature painter and wargamer, I don't think that I am the target audience for this product. I am used to hard plastic terrain that is fairly robust. I decided to try the Battlesystems as it appeared to be good value. First of all there are no instructions provided, apparently a conscious decision made by the company. This would be okay if the build was intuitive but this isn't always the case e.g. one building requires the shelving to be in place to hold it together, which I found out by watching a YouTube tutorial by the company. Even following this, my version barely resembled theirs. I found that some of my models self destructed while I was struggling to put them together, the front peeling away. The large storage containers looked okay but are not really big enough for most of the 28-32mm figures that I generally use. If I got them in, there was a danger that it would fall apart again. The ruined alien catacombs was pretty easy to put together and may get some use as background. To be fair to Battlesystems, this is designed to use with Core Space, which I know little about and probably works really well with that? Also, I haven't put cardboard models together since about 1970 and I wasn't very good at it then!? And if it works for you, it is really good value. Just not for me.
