Welcome to the Badlands

So for some time I’ve been wanting something more than a 3×3 piece of Chipboard as a table… Yes the wood looks sort of sand coloured but it really wasn’t what I was after.

So I was looking around on Gumtree which is like Craig’s List but here in Australia and came across Custom Terrain who was local to me so I thought I’d see what he can do.

Elliott at Custom Terrain has a whole list of different types of tables he’s done and so I emailed through an enquiry about getting a table built for Malifaux. After going back and forth with ideas we came up with the idea of a 3×4 table with the extra 1′ for counters, cards and models out of play.

Well I went and picked it up on the Saturday and it was better than I could think.

Here are the photos from his competed log:

So as you can see the extra foot was split over both sides so you can place what you need either side. He also covered it in Felt do it borders it quite well.

So I get it home and want to have a game but Exileed wasn’t available so I placed some of the terrain I have on there and set up a possible game.

So that’s what I’ve been up to of late… I’d recomend getting something from Elliott as he does fantastic work!

I’m going to be getting some matching Hills to go with this in a couple of months too as you can see at his Site showing the Modular Hill Set.

   This is a fantastic looking table, kudos, it’s really going to make games that much better.

   Thanks Mik!

   I’m still waiting to get a game on it as my regular opponents have been able to come around for one reason or another So hopefully I’ll be able to break it in soon!
