I know one of the big issues with playing at Good Games is the lack of terrain, but that is apparently getting remedied! They put these out for us to use and they said they have a bunch of floral-ish terrain they are still painting up. I wanted to make a announcement for everyone here. I think I will ask them about the possibility of a third table next time I am there.  |

Nice. How is that mechanicus terrain in terms of line-of-sight blocking? I was thinking of picking up one of those furnaces.

Craig did an awesome job with the terrain. The "floral" terrain is actually the aeldari ruins. Craig was showing us the box, some very cool stuff.

Surprisingly well. This plus the other terrain can create some serious LoS blockers. Those big central platforms also block a good bit.

The Void Shield generators and the mechanicus turbines are great for mid-sized models and infantry, the big mechanicus terrain (the boiler thing) is pretty big - not tall enough to block LOS for a wraithlord or knight, but just about anything else barring big wings/swords etc (flyrants and the like).
The rest of it is pretty sparse though - you can see through the legs with ease, so unless you house rule it that you just assume its too dense to see through, like the ITC does, they aren't really blocking much of anything - but they do provide cover if you're in/on it which is nice.

That sounds workable! I have the platforms from the knight renegade box, so I need some LOS blocking since they are practically transparent.
