Picked this up on eBay for a few quid. At 1:241 scale it’s pretty good for 6-8mm compatibility. Here’s also some sprue pictures and size comparisons to a Warlord Titan and the buildings. I think that looks pretty good, don’t you?

Here’s a couple of pictures showing how well some of the pieces from the Manufactorum set match up to the Santorini towers.

These will really allow sci-fi and more detailed elements to be added to the buildings.

I already had this box of Legions Imperialis accessories – factory towers, pipes and suchlike. There are a few very WH40k elements, but mostly it’s pieces that easily fit into Star Wars style universe, or can be easily modified/painted to look the part.

A few years back, my children accidentally lost all the playing figures for our copy of the board game Santorini. I got a replacement copy, but have had all the buildings from the first copy in my bits box for the last few years. They’re too good to throw out and now – aha! They are perfectly sized for 6-8mm gaming.

Here’s what they look like.
