Battle Systems is the terrain that I use all my gaming terrain needs
Dude, How Are You So Great At This?! Thank You For Showing Your Process!
Thank you mate you're too kind :)
Battle Systems Core Space is my favourite game apart from Blood Bowl 7s:) Good idea btw comparing prices against GW terrain. The Battle Systems terrain is durable as it wont snap if you drop it, it will just bend haha. As it's cardboard you can custom make little additions, I like to add things like posters on the walls and extra signs.
I speed built all of it so didn't get to mess around with custom bits like posters and signs but now the videos complete I have time to try and make it my own a bit more so I'll definitely be going back and looking at it again in my own time :)
Dude, that apple lmao.
Oh yeah and these look like nice and quick terrain to use, great video!
I was told you need a interesting into 😂
And thank you. 🙂
Came for the terrain review. Sub'd for the apple eating.
I was not emotionally or mentally prepared for that fourth bite
On topic, I recently got some Battle Systems stuff (the cheaper gothic ruins and post-apoc camp sets) and they're absolutely excellent. GW is really missing a trick by not making low-price/high-quality card-and-clips scenery.
neither was I.
The terrain is great and it fulfills its purpose perfectly.
Love this concept, keep the amazing high quality videos coming. You're smashing it!
Thank you mate, will do! :)
I'm ashamed to admit I've never played a game of 40k despite having a full army of Guardsmen...but when I do...now I can get the terrain to do it
Collecting is a valid part of the hobby too :)
If noone was talking about their kickstarters, bs always gives a ton of extra bits with their pledges. The fantasy sets had entire extra buildings like the forge! These guys fucking rock. I love tinkerturf as well.
I got the battle systems apacolypse City Core set and the police station add-on for my exaction squad home field. It's treating me great! My necron crypteks don't fit in 1 story buidlings, but you can build the map around that.
That's an awesome amount of terrain, also, should larger minis be able to fit in a one story building built for humans? for example i don't think a real space marine could get through the front door of my house. :L
@@LizardofDoom I agree, I actually love the fact that that they don't fit. The extra layer of asymmetry makes the battlefield feel more real in my opinion (i even have 2 dumpsters that only 25mm or less can fit in and close the lid. Only used once but it was funny as can be to see in match). But, I do want to make sure not to close off too much to them when I place my buildings; so I make sure some with ruined roofs, or taller ceilings and double doors exist through the map for them to enter too.
i actually got the trader encampment myself, I love how they look even if I fucked up the square building a bit
Just got my first set the. Ru8ined Catacombs. Great for OPR!
Your ability to eat Apples and other assorted fruit like a completely normal human being is one of the reasons I subscribed to your channel, great job!
How to eat an apple like a human tutorial coming soon.
I just came across this video randomly - and i LOVE battlesystems. I have their scifi/corespace range and a lot of their fantasy sets - even the northern settlement! Yes its paper but take the chapel, and the battle sisters battle sanctum angel statue and couole them together with some rocks for static texture and it all looks great together. That chapel is so unique for both scifi and fantasy. Highly recommend all the products! The newest kickstarter looks awesome! The fantasy mixed with scifi one!
Huge fan of Battle Systems
Hands down my favourite warhammer channel. Would love it if you could get a set of Genestealer Cult jackals and paint them up Mad Max style
The hats a pretty good idea, I’ve been painting dirty for so long I think the next project after the chaos knights is going to be a cleaner army then I’ll dive back in to filth 🙂
The beginning skit was great as always :P Love the sound of Lizard Look, this was great
Any suggestions on a small company to review? 🙂
One of my favorite battlesystems - scifi soecifically - is their alien webbing! It looks so sick with avp minis! You just add them as layers or as perpendicular angles to overhang halls and drip down from ceilings! Oh and the landing bay is super thematic. 😊
Your videos are so good, absolutely my favourite hobby youtuber now. I would love to see you make your own custom terrain, always fascinated by the ideas people have for that and you wee super creative.
Thank you mate, I have some ideas with some massive empty protein powder tubs but I need to get the chaos knight diorama done and dusted because Orktober is looming large 🙂
Found a marked down set last night and bought it, checked this in the morning and literally can't wait to play with this! Great video!
Awesome what set did you get
Gothic ruins one, just some walls mostly. Wanted to check the quality and portability before splashing out haha
@@theOutdoorEddie yeah they’re a really nice style for 40K and you can shape them how you want really
Great video with really helpful info, thank you. Did you end up disassembling everything and put it away in the end, and if so how was it assembling it again next time? I’m considering terrain to replace the original Necromunda cardboard terrain.
I have, it all fits back in the boxes it comes in which is great but I would recommend implementing a plastic baggie system so you know which bits for which build. Putting it back together is reasonably intuitive after you’ve built it once.
@@LizardofDoomYep, you should keep small buildings (such as the trade containers) and other "items" assembled and disassemble all walls and floors (they are easy to assemble with clips) :) I purchased almost all their products and you can even mix all of them :)
Perfect review! These sets are something that I have been looking at for a while!
Good catch by the way on the apple 😆
Really decent product to be fair to them!
and thanks :L
Front Line Gaming do some flarpack terrain building's. It's MDF so more durable but to not look like MDF does require painting
ooooh this is VERY interesting content. Thanks alot!
mmm... yes... yes... a lovely little set it is...
I would love for you to review the table top titans set of terrain since it's made directly for 40k
I’ll shoot out some emails and see what I can do 🙂
@@LizardofDoom Good stuff, would be cool to see a deep dive into it. It looks good from what I can see, but yeah have a good look into it, would be solid to see a review on it!
I really like Tinker Tuff. It's a similar product, but tuff stuff.
I love how you just wing stuff as you go along. Lizard Looks may become my favourite thing. This was seriously useful and these are going straight on my gift list.
Would you consider reviewing systems outside of GW?
I can't follow a script without sounding like robot and I have ADHD so it is what is is :L
For now as a small channel I'm sticking to GW stuff over all for the viewing figures but I will be branching off when I've built the audience. That being said I will be joining in with Miniacs concept of "other games april" and I'm planning on dedicating April to another system, most probably A Song of Ice and Fire miniatures game for the first one as I love that game and I have an unpainted Greyjoy army in my pile of future fun.
@@LizardofDoom it was genuine, it's one of the things I love most about your channel.
Secondborn has ADHD and I'm finding that others' stories surrounding ADHD seriously resonate with my own experiences though I have no diagnosis and haven't sought one out.
Keep doing what you do, if it is what it is then it is awesome
I only found out I have ADHD a year or so ago, it explained a lot.
@@LizardofDoom yeah, we found that with Secondborn XD it sort of explained -everything-. She's bloody rocking it now, insanely proud
TinkerTurf has a *very* similar product. Would love to see them compared.
Loving your Mum jokes! 😂
This looks like great terrain to get set up and gaming quickly! Might get some once my partner and I are actually moved into our new house in a couple of months, and actually have space to set up terrain. Also, classic Max, gotta love a your mum joke :D
5 out of 5 lizards on this video keep up the great work a fresh look on the mini scene your mum jokes are funny to
Thank you mate 🤘
Great review, but ooof that price for essentially cardboard scenery is wild
It does have a bit of a hefty price tag but I'm up for paying for convenience sometimes, filling an empty table in one day is no small feat.
Was that a lord of change in the background? just as planned
Is that REN and stimpy music in the background?!😳
fkn.. menacingly eating a apple to begin with is a power move bro
no apple stands a chance against the Lizard of Doom.
Doing gods work as always bro
They'll would work for Five Parsecs From Home. They use a 2 feet by two feet mat.
Good to know 🙂
I dig it. Maybe just spruce it up a bit with some bits and or vegetation and yeah color the edges but looks like it gets the job done.
Having played a fair few games with it now it really does do the job nicely 🙂
Great video, the terrain looked good, and so easy to have ready to play, bit concerned about it's longevity though, especially if you're taking it apart and putting it back together again on semi-regularly.
After 4 quite long games using it and reshaping some of it for each game there's a few small frays around a couple of connection but only one or two over the whole tables worth. Heavy use might result in a bit more but I was impressed with how well it stood up to some quite hectic games.
I glued several "fixed" parts of mine together and gave them a spray enamel coat. Not only did it help the flimseyness of some connections, I think it should last a long while now. I need a larger carrying case now, but i can walk into my friend's house and set up a board in minutes.
Subbed for that apple eating
Excellent opening skit. 😂❤
Thank you 😂
I bought some TT combat MDF terrain, that was good for the price but the assembly can be a pain, I only did a quick paint scheme to it but you get a lot of is for your money Vs GW but the GW is a nicer finish I feel and likely easier to assemble
I’d say that’s a fair comparison.
ah shit....the Your Mum got me.
YES MORE LIZARD LOOKS
What product from a smaller company would you like to see reviewed?
Great review!
Great review! :)
Thank you mate 🙂
No idea if these companies are big or small but they are two that instantly popped into my head and that I would recommend.
TT combat for terrain (I've personally got most of the ork stuff and a friend has most of the necron and Egyptian stuff.
Mad Robot Miniatures for alternative Imperial Guard. They have so much great stuff. My favourites are the Colonial Marines from Aliens, and the personalities heads including guys from Predator and Expendables.
I will have a look 🙂
I know everyone talks up the ability to flat pack the battle systems terrain, but I think that is disingenuous as to how people actually use terrain. (not you specifically, that's how they market it) Like are you really going to want to flat pack the terrain that took you a whole day to build? Absolutely not. I ended up gluing my battle systems terrain together as sold pieces to create more solid terrain out of them. Specifically when you look at the northern stuff, they come with these false floors that don't attach to the building as well as squigly little cobblestone paths. I ended up getting cardboard and gluing it all down then covering the seams with flock and hitting it with mod podge and it looks fantastic - but absolutely not able to be flat packed.
I genuinely have flat packed it and rebuilt it in several different arrangements for different games like Warhammer and infinity :)
APPLE CORES FOR THE CORE GOD
APPLE SEEDS FOR THE SEED THRONE!
Cool
When are you getting to your knights.
Next two videos will be knight diorama based, 2 videos a month will be on the “main project” and 2 on side stuff, had a busy couple of weeks irl so I needed some easier videos to put out 🙂
the Rampager will be finished tonight ready for Fridays video ;)
Large board for 40k is 60" by 44"
I’m old school
ive been looking for those ruined cathedral sets for so long i built my own out of foamboard. they're perpetually out of stock man
Battle Systems customer support is really good from my experience I'd have a chat with them if somethings out of stock to see when its coming back or what they can do about it :) kudos for making your own though.
Where are the videos where it shows how to put it together
@@coreyrogers4819 on the battlesystems UA-cam channel
Battle systems is great, excep it is pricey in many cases.
I think the bundles are a great deal money wise
I'm sorry not even one min into the video and that skit ends with gagging on almost a whole apple - weirdest 40k hobby video opening so far - bonus points for originality 👍🍏😵💫
And as for a recommendation - this might be quite apt considering your 'Nids - Tabletoptech (website and tiktok account) - they manufacture an interesting set of cases that do not use foam or require magnets - it appears to use compression o-rings to hold bases - I believe they are an american/aussie company, relatively new on startup and finding their feet/niche in the marketplace - If you use their website chat service - Helen is a great help and will involve extra members of their team to help you out. Am considering getting a case for my bloodbowl team(s) myself...assuming you're into cases?
I have a million old style GW cases because I worked there when they went oop and we had to “get rid of them” I’ll have a look at shooting them an email 🙂
Just use guard vehicles as terrain, its all theyre good for.
I think that's all you use them for when they're in your army anyway right, line of sight blockers? :L
@LizardofDoom yes they go well with my chaos contemptor dreadnoughts 🫠🫠🫠
Best intro
Thanks 😂
