| Rock Outcrops (BB 545) from GF9 |
The set includes 6 sets of rocks and two types of static grass to add as desired. This set is BB 545; there was an earlier set of Rocky Outcrops (BB 521) which had 8 pieces included.
It is easy enough to create rocks etc with foam, but for me, as I have said before, that would take away from the little time I manage to focus on painting my minis. The price is around £16-£18 and for me that is reasonable value as a trade-off for time and materials to do something similar.
One useful advantage of these over a foam alternative that is not immediately obvious however, is that they have a certain heft and weight and so are less likely to get displaced on the tabletop.
As is evident, I like the GF9 Battlefield in a Box range. The quality is consistent, so I know what to expect when picking up a set. Consequently the pieces I have picked up have been good value for me. I like that certain sets go nicely together to allow an expandable range. All in all, highly recommended.
The volunteers used for scale are:
- Crimson Oni (Pulp City)
- Azriel (Anima Tactics)
- Red Skull (What The? Miniatures)
They certainly look the business, I like the idea that there is a consistency that runs through the terrain,
ReplyDeleteHonestly, I do not feel let down by any of the pieces I have bought. :)
DeleteThey do look nice, if I wasn't so stubborn about pretending to build my own, I might buy some.
ReplyDeleteWe hobbyists are nothing if not stubborn Sean! :)
DeleteThey look like they fit the bill.
ReplyDeleteI am very happy with them; they make some nice LOS blocking angles so fit the gaming bill IMHO. :)
DeleteI just picked up a set of these from Ebay as none of the local gamestores had them in stock...for some time. I too like them & their weight that shrugs off errant dice.
ReplyDeleteAgreed Terry; having the mass to resist the vagaries of gaming should not be overlooked! :)
DeleteThey're a bargain and like trees, you can never have enough rocky outcrops
ReplyDeleteI am of a like mind Zombie Ad, so much that i am going to keep an eye out for the old set. :0
