Basing Masterclass: Flying Stands

December 2016·p. 130

THE SHORT VERSION

James Littler’s Gargoyle illustrates how the moulded guide holes beneath sculpted bases can receive a flying stem. Drilling from below and gradually widening the opening protects the finished surface, while blue-green ground and two kinds of metal connect the base to an industrial setting.

New Horus Heresy Transfer Sheets

Space Wolves and Thousand Sons transfer sheets provide runes, Legion insignia and squad markings. The article presents them as a way to personalise Heresy collections while noting that their imagery can also serve the later descendants of both Legions.

Blanchitsu: The Tale of the Pilgrym

An international group turns an infant psyker’s arrival on Terra into a collaborative storytelling game full of competing Imperial faiths and covert agendas. Converted warbands, processional steps and a decayed Botanicarium make the narrative tangible, with rules subordinate to character and imagery; the article explains the preparation and the roles of several factions rather than reducing the event to a winner.

Assault on Muster Tredecimma

Blake Spence explains the Forge World display of Autek Mor’s assault on a World Eaters recruiting facility. Cranes, a towering control room and a cargo hauler establish an industrial story through reused components, while correct clearances and visible internal detail make the immense constructions believable; travelling exhibitions require durable sections and an accompanying repair kit.
