Tabletop World Builds Another Tabletop Townhouse
August 21, 2014 by brennon
Tabletop World are celebrating more fans on Facebook by announcing that Townhouse III is now available on their webstore! Check out another amazing piece of terrain...
The house is made of stone to show off the luxurious nature of its construction and let it stand out amongst the other wooden buildings in the town. It also comes in four parts allowing you to decorate and indeed fight on the insides if you so wished! I think it would be fairly awesome to have these kind of buildings in games of Cutlass! or of course anything historical. You could have a bit of a fist fight or riot happening in the streets!
The detail on these buildings are amazing and the town that Tabletop World are creating is slowly growing into something very impressive. One day we'll see a whole table laden with these creations!
What do you think?
I like it. A nice multiple room house with separate layers looks good.
Very cool design, an amazing piece of terrain for tabletop games.
I love their pieces. If only i was rich.
If I was a rich man… nanananana 🙂
Almost the same price as GW is charging for Nagash, to put things in perspective.
That only means they’re both overcharging for things…
Not at all.
It puts nothing in perspective, they’re totally different products. You want to talk about the price of terrain pieces then compare it with other terrain pieces. You want to compare the price of minis, at least compare them with similar minis.
Personally I think you treat miniatures like you’re buying a hammer. “Look, this one’s cheaper and it’ll still hammer my nails in!”
You buy a mini or a terrain piece then it’s more like buying a piece of art. It’s only worth anything if you happen to like it and it’s worth exactly what you’re prepared to pay for it. I don’t care how much a mini I don’t like costs because I wouldn’t take it off you for free.
Now, I think it’s time you got over your GW obsession and spend your time and energy on things you actually like. You’ll be much happier 🙂
Tut, tut little one. I’m very happy. The GW threads give me hours of amusement, just like their miniatures used to.
The comparison is valid imho
The amount of plastic you get in the Nagash kit is just not that great.
I can get substantially more for my buck from scale model kits.
Whether or not someone is willing to stump up the cash for Nagash is another question, but let us not fool ourselves into thinking we are not paying over the odds
Apart from which if you by the resin building no one will then be trying to foist 50 quids worth of books on top so you can use the dude in a game.
Just to be clear and to avoid needless back and forth, if you love Nagash and are likely to use him in a game rather than a resin building, I am not saying you would be wrong. Unless it means not putting bread on the table for the kids.
You heartless father! How could you do that to the poor wee waifs. Look at them pleading for some food tugging at their mother’s apron while you spend all on plastic soldiers. So cruel and wicked. Oh it breaks my heart to see them so
Erastus twirls his waxed moustache *silent movie* *piano* lol
FWIW I sold my kids to fund hobbies.
Decided to put them out of sight out of mind and not feel guilty while I play games.
@chibi I don’t don’t actually like Nagash, I don’t play any fantasy games, let alone WHFB, I haven’t bought a book I didn’t really want since I left university, I don’t have any children, but I do have a waxed moustache … so, your post wasn’t totally wrong 😉
I donated my kids to science, and they’re both doing well I’m told. They even produced grandbabies in the lab. Oddly, they’ll reach for a miniature before they reach for a bottle (well, a baby bottle anyway).
As for waxed moustaches, I used to sport one when I was beasting army recruits or the eager young lads on the leadership courses, but the wax freezes in the Arctic, and your handles snap off. Easier to keep it trimmed, and I no longer need to strike fear into the hearts of the kiddies who blunder off the bus.
I spent $80 on the site once on accessories, like market goods and such, and got the well for free. Totally impressed — super detailed. I can only imagine what the buildings are like.
And note that no one is actually complaining about the price. IMO that shows that there is value in the item that justifies the sticker price, even if not many of us can lay out the cash for it right now!
A waxed moustache ….
Hmmm one out of six ain’t so ….bad….
It is bloody awful! lol
It is more understandable for Tabletop World.
There will be a lower production run and they have nothing in the range that can cushion the expense of a large resin model.
Time to raid the thesaurus for superlatives again.
And as usual only two negatives.
My lack of cash and not having a sugar mommy to buy me one
What about Cher?
I left after she kept absorbing all my plastic models through her skin
That and her never ending sexual demands
Damn my imagination. Creeped out again. In her case I think the experience would equate to shooting pool with a rope.
Ok i just checked out the website and most of there buildings range is out of production. They still make some like the house shown above and they have said they are replacing the out of production items but it seams odd to remove most of your range without something to replace it.
I really like there Graveyard and the Guard tower but there not making them anymore.
They used to make more complicated kits. They’re replacing them with simpler ones to increase sales. So far they’ve replaced most of them.
Do you know if the tower is going to come out in a simpler form? Would be something worth saving for if it did.
I’m not sure. I don’t think they’ve commented specifically on individual pieces.
I’ve got a whole village of homemade buildings, but mine don’t quit reach this standard. Would be nice to buy one every now and again! I wish they still produced the watchtower that’s in their archives.
they have at least the decency to put molds out of commission and not use them until they break apart.
Absolutely gorgeous!!!!
That is a thing of beauty. If only I had the means to create an entire segement of a town from such incredible townhouses as part of a board, it would be the ultimate fantasy/historical set up.
Then I could have something suitably nasty invade and pillage it. Perhaps someone is planning to release a sinister model soon that could fulfil the role of a looming dark threat to civilisation…? 😉
Something fire-breathing perhaps?
These guys are the final word when it comes to fantasy terrain, it’s just resin pornography for the eyes…
Nagash is small. This terrain piece is gigantic. The notion that it is overpriced as a very heavy thing made of probably a quart of expensive resin and made in many multiple part molds, compared to the tiny Nagash, which takes substantially less material and probably fewer molds, is really rather silly. Some people need to take some basic mathematics courses, and maybe sit in on Economics 101.
It’s pretty much just math, guys. Very simple math. One of these things is priced based on a whole lot of expensive materials going into its production. The other is banking on your slavish devotion to an overhyped IP to get you to fork over waaaayyy more than the cost of materials and time. Math. It’s your friend.
Still wish i was rich and could buy them all.
