4Ground's Final Prize & Collaboration With Battle Systems? - You Could Win
An exciting prospect from the folks at both 4Ground AND Battle Systems.
See what you think of this final prize and the news of a partnership...






























Exciting stuff. Looks like we’re in for some awesome looking terrain.
It’s an exciting time for terrain!
Flippin’ right.
stonkingly good partnership from those two…
What great guys – their terrain makes the table pop
Video not working for anyone else?
4Ground is amazing, they managed to turn wooden squares to an art.
Stoic arms was a worthy winner 2014, here´s hoping for more fantasy awsomeness!
ooo two great terrain makers teaming up, this should lead to some amazing stuff
I have no use for the Stoic Arms in any game I play (yet. There are some on the horizon) but I still really want to own it to enjoy assembling the whole thing. 4Ground are almost a hobby in themselves these days.
they are both great companies , and keeping us all playing games
Great for D&D games, you always need a Pub 🙂
So want that stoic arms got some of the battle systems dungeon terrain and that’s amazing.
I must know what was in the other box! Seriously though, I’m a long time minis gamer and a terrible terrain maker. I’m so glad that some affordable options are coming around now so that I don’t need to keep declaring “the coaster is a forest.”
that´s going to be a real tagteam…. woha
Hmm, so these facade style 4Ground buildings with Battle Systems interior add-ons perhaps? I like the sound of that.
When I originally started playing games I never really though I would be so interested in the terrain but nowadays I can’t get enough of it, especially from the two companies in this video.
A barbarian, an elf, a dwarf and a wizard walk into a bar…
“Excuse us, could you point us to the nearest dungeon?”
possible collaboration? this could be amazing
Inn, Tower, amazing models, unfortunately one/fourth of my monthly earning…so may be in the future, when I collect some spare cash
It will be very interesting to see how these two pair up and if they will go the KS route or direct to retail? I do hope that the BS team gets a US distributor.
badass
wow, 4Ground are just giving it away today! haha
I was so impressed with the 4ground stand. It was the first time I’d seen a lot of it first hand – the quality really is good
Oh snap, stoic arms is the other prize, that’s just one of those amazing centre piece items that they do. I’ve almost bought one a few times, they are rather expensive over here, but I’m actually a little afeared of assembling it.
Fair competitors, good example for the industry 🙂 Bravi!
Lovely piece of terrain. I hate making terrain so companies like 4ground are just the ticket
This terrain looks outstanding! It would be a welcome prize since I’m planning Batman Miniature Game and Marvel Universe Miniature Game for the first time here in Minnesota!
fantastic products
I foresee a glorious future for tabletop terrain, if these two qould collaborate.
The children those two companies would make would be beautiful!!
Love the 4ground terrain, pre paint is awesome
4Ground is some of the best terrain around… And this kit is huge by the look of the box!
Can’t wait for my Battle Systems Kickstarter to arrive. Got a couple 4Ground pieces and will buy more!
Hang on, discussions with another company about 3rd party inserts for 4ground products… blog piece with Battle Systems. Oh hell yes!
They do make some really nice terrain
Indoors and outdoors my oh my
4Ground have the greatests MDF Terrain kits, and their trees are amazing
Stoic arms looks great.I am going to get their blacksmith model soon because t looks amazing and I think is quite reasonably priced for what is a great centrepiece
Just had a thought about a use for the Stoic Arms and the Laketown terrain for Frostgrave where two wizards and their apprentices arrive at the same inn to hire their forces… think I’ll mull that one over, might be something there for the beginnings of a narrative campaign.
Really looking forward to see what these guys will do together in the future 🙂
Terrain options are getting better and cheaper at an incredible pace.
Those 4Ground pieces are beautiful. Such a step up from the janky cardboard pieces that I began gaming with!
Wow. I’ve really enjoyed my Battlesystems sci-fi set. A partnership would open lots of opportunities.
Very nice prizes from two wonderful terrain-makers!
Our community definitely needs those terrain!
I think you could run a decent skirmish game inside the Stoic Arms – and not even need to step outside.
The knock-your-socks off kit of the last couple years.
The stoic arms is my favourite piece of terrain. Beautiful.
Nice!
woo hoo, my 2 favourite terrain systems, The Stoci Arms is on my wish list, its so pretty.
The stoic arms is nice, but I really hope the dwarf terrain rumors from 4ground come true.
A beautiful centerpiece for a fantasy battle!
building that stoic arms kit is a real challenge
Both really cool terrain systems. Would be really interesting to see something both company has worked on in one product
that looks good
I really wish Battlesystems would get a US distributor. I’m really interested in their stuff, but the overseas postage on what amounts to reams of heavy card is a dealbreaker.
beautiful pieces from both companies.
Stoic arms inn would work amazingly with Blood and blunder. Start with a bar fight before it spills out into the streets of a port town and then leads to a large ship fight just off the coast.
Hooo man is my dream will come true ?? battle System And 4 Ground ? wow
Both systems are AMAZING. I love them both for different reasons. I couldn’t decide.
Two Brilliant companies. I would definitely like to see them work together. 4Ground could build all the surface buildings and Battle Systems could make a network of sewers and dungeons to fight in underneath the city.
After 27 years of gaming, 4Ground finally made me realise how important good terrain really is to the whole tabletop experience- I’m far too idle to scratch-build my own stuff, so their kits really opened new doors for me (no pun intended)… I now have full Old West and Frostgrave tables and have never looked back! 🙂
I’m excited for future releases!
Pretty amazing competition! Would love to own the tavern. Birthday present to myself in the future haha
Very impressive. Two great pieces
I’m not surprised the Stoic Arms has been selling well, it’s a fantastic piece of scenery
I need more terrain as my boards are looking empty, will be looking into both sets of products!!!
the stoic arms is THE building everyone wants and no one has the cash for, been after this for my D&D group forever!!!!! big shout out to the dudley dungeoneers.
and then the dungeon crawler from battle systems is another amazing product and they won so fair good job and congrats guys.
Do I need another stoic arms………yea I do
4ground products are awesome
looks like fun.
That’s awesome for the guys at Battle Systems! They are such nice guys!
4ground and battle systems together on a project would be awesome. terrain really is at the forefront of the golden age of gaming that we appear to be in
Both products are excellent terrain.
The meeting of these two minds to produce scenery would be amazing – we had a good long chat with the guys at 4ground about their new terrain they are working on for Malifaux – looks fantastic.
Both products make the tables come alive.
very cool
Ahh, the Stoic Arms … great!
good sportsmanship from 4 Ground guy there (I’m really starting to like this guy…a lot) …Tavern games…Beer and Mortheim
Love this. By far the most awesome prize
The Stoic Arms has always been an aspirational item for me… I would love to win it. 🙂
stoic arms just looks amazing, would love to get my hands on that bit of kit.
I would really, really, really like to get this one. 🙂 I don’t know where I would store it, but I would make room for it. 🙂
battle systems and 4ground are the best terrain companies up to now. I had the chance to play on a battle systems scifi table and it looks just amazing!
Stoic arms is a great building
Goodness, I am in terrain heaven! You retailers with your imagination, passion to deliver to us mortal war gamers. I thank you and wish you all well.
But my wife and bank manager hate you!!!
I hope Salute 2016 brought you commercial reward for your efforts.
How many mordheim/frostgrave tables have we seen with 4ground products, they are perfect!
Just letting you know, I’m stoic.. so I require a stoic arm or arms. 😛
Excited about my Battle Systems Urban and Shanty Town kickstarter.
Having the stoic arms to develop characters before they go dungeon delving would make an excellent side game
4ground stuff is lovely kit. Expensive but worth it.
Yes, the Stoic Arms is the classic piece of terrain. An entire campaign could be written to take place just in the confines of that piece. I should write one up, based around Jezebel, so she will have something to do when she arrives.
Love the pub one of are lads has it, but its only made one showing.
Really Nice Stuff, Old stuff and your new ones.
4Ground ! So good.
nice to see 2 companies collaborating! this is what make wargaming great
Superb!
The dungeon set is awesome, I came so close to picking it up.
A collaboration between the two companies could work out extremely well for us consumers. 4Ground buildings with Battlesystems interiors, furniture and maybe a Battlesystems designed mat? Yes please!
4ground continue to impress me! Great terrain but also seem like great guys!
Wow…That inn just looks awesome! Has to be The Golden Trout of our roleplay group!
Loving all this 4ground stuff!
I would really want to see some collaboration between those two Companys
That pub looks awesome, the battle system guys are great as well, can’t wait for my shanty town.
Gorgeous
Wow nice give away.
These two working together is crazy exciting 😀
4Ground and Battlesystems were probably my favourite stands today
I hope it works out!
Id love to use this for D&D!
Golden age of wargaming 🙂
Wow, my two favourite terrain manufacturers ,and they are collaborating. Can’t wait to see the outcome!!
4Ground just materialises great ideas. I’m looking forward for the Elven Fabled Realms.
But the dwarwen pillars must also fit in any Frozen Grave. Must cast a magic eye in their workshop!
Nice!!!! Love 4Ground terrain!!
It is great when 2 dedicated companies can come together and make a grand gesture!
Great stuff from 4Ground.
Now that would look good on my game table
Collaboration can only be good for wargamers
Is this the secret interior collab? Exciting times if so.
I have 3 of the Mordanburg houses which I use for terrain for Warmachine, just look the look and great fun to make.
I can’t think who wouldn’t want that pub.
Niiice
4ground really does make some of the best terrain in the industry and the battlesystems stuff looks great for modular stuff. Theres nothing you can’t do with either,
Wow big respect to both guys. Great winners and losers, so good people. They both make excellent products and they appreciate each other. That’s how the world should be.
And 4ground, wauw giving so much prices. Love all their products.
There are so many terrain types/styles/manufacturers, that it’s really-really hard to choose.
For once that seems to be to good of a prize. They really do a great job with the designs they come up with.
I have really enjoyed using 4gound and Battle systems as a part of our tabletop gaming experience.
Nice to see friendly competition for a change.
Both companies do wonderful stuff.
Got both of those 🙂
Very keen to see what these guys com up with, hopefully a pre painted Zone Mortalis range.
I want to pick up a stoic arms for D&D, as a reward they get blue prints for building a inn and as they are gathering resources for it of course they have to defend it while doing so.
no one is this nice really are they?
Both systems are top notched, shame though they’re also top priced. Thought for a moment that when you mentioned “cross-pollination” there was going to be a joint effort in the works.
Sounds like a winner! Can’t wait!
destined to give any tabletop a facelift
really cool
Aww, bromance!
Would be great to have the stoic arms.
It’ll be interesting to see what those two come up with. Stoic Arms = more storage/display space.
regret not getting in on battlesystems last kickstarter
4ground have been very generous
Love the Stoic Arms, I would love to get a whole table of Mordenberg terrain.
would like that stuff in 15mm
An exciting time for terrain and it’s great for us who can’t create there own terrain from scratch. Love both of these companies.
My group is heavily into Frostgrave at the moment. The Stoic Arms would be an amazing prize for them. 🙂
Thank you guys for doing these prizes. It means a great deal to us, cheers.
So impressed by the attitude of one company towards another. Well done 4ground
Would love a pint in that pub!
Awesome coverage
You got chocolate in my peanut butter! Mind Blown! Those 2 coming together is like Michael Jackson and Paul McCartney singing together. OMG.
Awesome stuff
I’ve got to own the Stoic Arms one day, either by winning it or by sneakily drawing out money here and there so the missus doesn’t see the transaction hehe.
It’s so good you could play a game, with just that!
great to see. well done to both..
Stoic arms, yes please!
I want to get another Stoic Arms tavern over to The States.
What diabolical scheme have we just been witness to the conception of???
Can’t wait to hear more.
Whenever I see these companies I realize just how gak the terrain we use is. Wonky hills, the odd tree and rock and some corner parts of buildings. Great Terrain makes for such an improved experience.
I have absolutely no use for the Stoic Arms kit but I still want one!
We are gaming in a golden age of terrain. Lots of options in different price points and styles.
Stoic Arms — pretty cool swag
can’t believe all the stuff 4ground is giving away today
Awesome! I would love to add some of these to my collection!
Oo i hope i win that would be awesome for My own rpg game the tavern!!!
Plus awesome Birtday present!!!
love the 4ground stuff- looks good and great to fight over
Total respect to the 4ground team you can tell they love the hobby and also keen to support other companies
Great terrain.
one our first BattleSystems setup were PDF printouts purchased through WarGameVault/DriveThruRPG… lots of different styles, price points and formats (lasercut, 3D printing, papercraft) for gaming terrain out now it’s a gamers market.
A great set of prizes from 4Ground.
What a fab third prize….. A collaboration between you guys would be very interesting…
Keep pushing each other guys, both awesome terrain
Two of my favourite terrain producers, love it!
Love 4Ground and Battle Systems, so be interesting to see what they come up with.
I love the 4ground buildings. I have a number of them which I use for WW2. I haven’t had a chance to get some of the battle system stuff yet but I won’t some of the zombie town stuff when it’s realesed later this year
Stoic Arms is and always will be an iconic building.
Theo tavern is a really fantastic model. Andi I am interested what the cooperation will bring.
The Stoic Arms is my dream piece of terrain for D&D.
Oh this has been on my want list for what seems forever such an amazing kit.
Yeah these building are amazing.
Awsome! As always 4Ground = Pure Perfection. Keep it up guys.
Stoic Arms is still my favorite piece!
Amazing bulding
that lovely stoic arms
i got a dwarf with nowhere to drink who would be a happy bunny with that kit
I will own one eventually I think
Stoic Arms Tavern! So sweet that it could give you diabetes!
The stoic arms is a fun build.
The stoic arms really have become their signature
The Stoic Arms building is really an amazing piece of terrain!
I’d happily spend a few hours every evening at my local Stoic Arms tavern in the gaming area 😀
I nearly bought the stoic arms when I visited them last year…..must resist temptation….
And the latest stuff from battle systems was just phenomenal. They are really pushing the boundries of what can be achieved with card.
Good colab.
Wow. All this terrain is awesome. Need space. A lot of space.
I love that Stoic Arms its just one of the most fun terrain pieces every
A collaboration with both of these two companies could be very exciting…look forward to seeing what they produce together.
4 ground stuff look t good
Always nice to see companies working together.
There seems to be some interesting stuff coming up !
Keep`s getting better and better, and we now have “Battle Systems” joining in……….in which case thing`s can only get better.
I already have the Stoic Arms built in its basic state. Awesome for fantasy games, pirate games, etc etc etc. I really really want to build one with snow for Frostgrave. Love it all !!
The future is medieval!
Great to see these guys both working toward people ending up with great terrain!
4 Quatlos on the slim one.
Heh, I’ve already made my “4Ground are really going for it with the prizes” joke in the LAST 4Ground post…
What am I supposed to say here?! 😉
The Battlesystems stuff is really cool too!
Some day I’ll put together my 4Ground terrain. It’s so beautiful even in the box.
Fantastic kit, and ideal fro that your in an inn rpg starter
I’m not surprised that it is so popular in the US. It is a great looking kit/building.
4Ground AND Battle Systems working together. Nice!!
The 4Ground guy’s enthusiasm is infectious 😀
How many hours in a day , I can’t work all of them to buy every thing I want or need ( witch is everything ). Y’all killing me I need a bigger job.
makes perfect sense 🙂
I guess that wasn’t my last time saying it. 4ground is fantastic!!! Bring it on.
Wow both of these guys are amongst the best, if not the best in terrain, a partnership can only be good news for us gamers.
Oh, wow, stoic arms…so nice. Weird they sell more here in the states, would think everyone would want it.
Love both these companies, have got product from both…..but the club can always do with more. Exciting times
The tavern. Can’t count the number of times I was close to order it
If you only used 2 companies for terrain you wouldn’t go far wrong with 4Ground and Battle Systems.
This makes me a happy bunny
Be interested to see what they can collaborate on.
I love the stoic arms building!! Gaming scenery has had such an increase in variety and quality in the last 5 years, you can make a gaming table that looks incredible from off-the-shelf kits. Keep up the fantastic work, 4ground and battle systems!!!!
The men in white suits must have missed him, I”am sure they will get him yet.
I think I have to finish me Sci-Fi set this year. 🙂
The stoic arms is so gorgeous, along with the rest of the 4Ground fantasy range.
Love the 4ground scenery. It’s a pleasure to put together.
Awesome awesome awesome. I’ve considered buying it myself.
So 4Ground and Battlesystems could do some co-operation in future? Battlesystems perhaps creating interiors for the buildings?
Love both these companies. Such nice people.
4ground staff with Battlesystems textures would really be something.
My warband could do with a new place to frequent “The Stoic Arms” the greatest pub outside of a real one.
Both great terrain makers. Although the Stoic Arms looks great. The box it comes in isn’t as big as i would have thougt it was.
Who would not want anything these 2 companies do what a great partnership looking forward to this stuff looks so so good loving this would have loved to see it
Oh my.. what a prize! The Stoic Arms is a masterpiece!
This remainds me that I have both scifi and fantasy kickstarters from Battle Systems still in the box!
4ground stuff looks great
Collaboration? Other companies can give up now!
4Ground teaming up with Battlesystems. The façade range for 4Ground can grow exponentially given the detail work Battlesystems can give the internals.
Great to see two great companies planning on working together – both make excellent products
Great prize, fingers crossed!
Oh man, the Stoic Arms has been on my wishlist since it was released!
Amazing buildings, icing on the cake
Battle System is good but 4Ground is the best!
Two of my favorite companies.
WOW! Great terrain!
That tavern is one of the most beautiful kits I have every seen. That’s one lucky person who gets that building kit.
That is the ultimate fantasy tavern. I imagine it on the outskirts of Frostgrave, where all of the soldiers spend their hard-earned loot.
Ahh man I want that Tavern!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’ll take The Stoic Arms prize, please 😀
Great stuff, my two favourite terrain companies.
4 ground are just the most amazing company when it comes to terrain!
The fabled realms Tavern looks so awesome…
4 groud is kiling it today 🙂 awesome awesome stuff!
The Stoic Arms is so nice
oohhh thats some lovely terrain right there
Hat’s off to 4Ground for offering so many AMAZING prizes
Agree, the stoic arms is just an amazing centerpiece.
4ground makes such amazing stuff
Nice prize and great couple of companies.
How generous the guys at 4Ground are! This video clearly shows their generous spirit.is not just about giving away prizes but carries over into their relationship with other companies.
4ground for the win i love all there lines
Looking good (x2)!
Cool
Stoic arms….and a grown man trying to grab it through his monitor!
The Stoic Arms remains amazing
The Stoic arms is just the building!
A match made in heaven.
That is fantastic! I need stoic arms and if it is half as good as their trees I will die.
awesome stuff, i cant say enough about how much i love the 4 grounds stuff
I love that the companies appreciate the fans voting for them and have a level of respect for each other. I voted for battle systems but don’t have any sadly. The terrain business being competitive can only be good for price and innovation. Great time to be a gamer.
I wish they had a good deal to get all the Fable Realm’s building stuff.
two great products.
i want all grounds stuff think may have to sell a kidney
I really do love 4ground! Stoic Arms!
What an awesome collaboration! Stoic arms prize….sure why not (accepts prize gracefully and exits his browser)
again two great products
two great companies awesome idea to have an F series building with optional interiors. Could have multiple interiors for same buildings. Great idea.
Cool – the future for both looks promising
More Fourground? Dont mind if i do!
Waiting in anticipation for my urban apocalypse terrain!
Congratulations to the guys at battlesystems. I must say that I like both companies, they have some great products!
this is really good idea to use differenrt inserts in 4 ground, well done and so inspirational for everyone that competition can work together.
2+2=11, or some silly analogy like that.
Yay, 4Ground!
ooo these two working together… exciting!
4Ground terrain is lovely!
Salute sounds fun!
Omg the lucky winner for the set Will never buy scenery for a year or so!
So much great terrain spoilt for choice
Battle System is great!
Feel free to sent that Stoic Arms my way anytime. Just sayin’…
i would love to build that pub! i have the battlesystems stuff and it is fantastic
So cool!
Gonna be an interesting union theese two companies
Excellent stuff.
Stoic arms , Prancing Pony proxy for us
I think I will really have to get myself to Salute next year!
Best buildings anywhere.
4Ground just keeps on putting out and displaying great terrain.
Sweet
Looks great!
The 4ground stuff is amazing!
Battle system/4ground very difficult choice to decide which is best…..both good products,but each has different uses permanent table with 4 ground or portable with battle system
I think I know who is going to do the interior decoration.mentioned in the other video.
Wow! This looks fantastic!
i love big beard man
really love that kit not sure i could brave building it with so much detail
A partnership? Can’t wait to see what that results in!
This collaboration will be freaking awesome.
Really excited for this stuff!
Stoic arms has had me drooling. Looking forward to hearing from BS.
Excited to hear that there’ll be more Mordanburg coming!
I’m always excited to see what 4Ground does.
I need a 28mm tavern and a few pints of beer…
Ha, Don;t think my poor wallet could handle a 4Ground / battle Systems collaboration
4 ground looking great looking to get some western stuff
I love how the tabletop industry is so amicable and friendly. Other industries should take note.
4ground was never really on my radar before, but this live blog has made me realize what all the hype is about. I finally get why they’re awesome!
It looks interesting!
And the prize for giving the best prizes goes to….. 4ground!
can’t believe the quality coming out of these guys
Battle Systems is cool!
I NEED a stoic arms.
I’m looking forward to this cooperation 🙂
This looks like an excellent scenery!
This totally rox!
This seems to be a nice scenery!
