New gaming table from GW

[The Dark Sheep]

Anyone seen this?

Personally I think this is great (even though a bit expensive), and I fear I'll have to spend those 100£ .

 

[illusionarypresence]

aye, doesnt look too shabby...

 

[Bug16]

I don't think that's a bad price when you also include the case. Hmm.. tempting..!

 

[Disciple of Nagash]

Considering the price of things nowadays - especially in the UK - that's not half bad. Only downside is it needs painting, however I suppose that means you can make your board unique.

It is also very easy to do if you just go to the shop and buy some spraypaint...

 

[Sirihar]

Can I ask where did you see this?

It does look okay, but it looks a little bland. Still, you can change it to how you want, so it is a good buy. And easy storage too, which is good.

I wonder if they would come out with other boards like this?

 

[The Dark Sheep]

Found it on The Painted Dragon.

 

[Sirihar]

Thanks.

Would anybody actually consider buying this soon? Or is it something that could wait?

 

[dictator]

To tell you all the truth. I would just want to know how they will put it together. Then I can just go ahead and make my own 2'x2' table lego pieces.

I would just make a regulation size table and keep it in my garage =P but yea its a great idea for gamers that live in a small space with no garage. I 1st heard about it on 40k raido (newist show)

 

[The Dark Sheep]

I just checked the GW site, and sadly I have to inform that the gaming board now costs £150 . Now it's a bit too expensive for my taste...

 

[LordBlasphemous]

The table is 6 2x2 sections that clip together in any configuration (giving you options and variations depending on the setup) with built in "alligator clips".

 

[Munkey]

I shall be getting one from a website that has minimum 25% discount. Already got my Warriors of Chaos pre-ordered for £11.00

 

[Josef]

im not sold on it but then again I lie to build my own tables.

 

[Disciple of Nagash]

An extra £50?! The thieving b*stards! Think I'll wait until josef has built his, found out how he did it and copy him lol..............

 

[Josef]

well you get some wood and then cut it with a saw and then bolt thand screw the wood together in the shape of a box and then add terrain to it

lol, built 2 tables already but they are not the right size for warhammer or 40k and I dont play starwars minis any more which is what I made the table for

I have always wanted to build my own gaming table. It has never been an issue in my gaming group because it is just more convenient to go to the local gaming store and play there, using their tables and terrain. It is mainly an issue of space, no one has the spare space for a gaming table at their pad. If I ever do get the extra space for my own gaming room, this will be the table that I build.

More specifically I want to build an undead themed one, a barren wasteland, so it will be a modified version of this one:

[The Dark Sheep]

Wow... those are some really awsome tutorials. Has he made more of those?

 

[Pureblood]

Probably, but those are the only ones he wrote articles about.

 

[Disciple of Nagash]

Superb guide Pureblood - thank you very much for finding it.

 

[Dreske]

Yeah, $275.00 U.S. now, great. I was teetering when it was $175.00, but geesh.

 

[Raukov]

Only downside is it needs painting, however I suppose that means you can make your board unique.

That really, really isn't a downside. At all. If it came prepainted you'd have to repaint it if you wanted a different type of terrain.

Also not paying £150 for it however nice it is.

 

[Zephyr]

Thanks for the tutorials Pureblood, great find. The GW board is way too expensive for what you are getting but that seems to be GW way of things lately.

*grins* yeah they've always been like that, hey it's a company after all, but it's been taken into the extreme the last few years.
