Make Warhammer TINY!!! 

Realises Im old enough to remember 'Epic 40k'

ʷᵃʳʰᵃᵐᵐᵉʳ

Damn those 10mil units all look so nice... I'm really diggn' like this idea and think I'm gonna have to give this a go here. Great vid Luke, really enjoyed this man.

When GW recently announced an "Old World" Warhammer game, this is exactly what I imagined as the product I wanted (though not expected) them to make.

Luke doesn't own any terrain?!! 😱 Inconceivable! This is literally like a dairy farmer running out of milk...

Let’s see 40K done this size with lots of scenery please 😁

"Do you want to see me do this for 40k?"...umm... F*CK YES!

As someone who lives in a small flat, I appreciate the hell out of this! Rather than 40k (and all its IP related nonsense) it might be worth reaching out to the other systems that aren't linked to mini lines, such as OnePageRules or Osprey Games, especially the self-contained games like Zona Alfa or Frostgrave, or the upcoming Stargrave. Turning those sets into something you could make in a weekend and keep in a shoebox would be amazing.

this is great, there are so many advantages to playing on a smaller scale, cheaper, faster, and it needs less space, or you can play larger battles in the same space

I had to rewind the part where you said you don’t own any terrain like 8 times just to make sure I hear you right.

This video inspired me to get started printing epic 40k stuff. Small scale is so much easier, it's something the community should keep pushing for.

Hey man, welcome to the 10mm community! Warmaster and other 10mm is such a great scale to play in. One of the things that is so great about it is it really conveys the tactical movement elements that kind of fall by the wayside in 28mm or larger games. I hope you enjoy the community. LOVE seeing you post content in this scale! Looking forward to seeing more. :)

I love this! Warmaster is still one of my all time favourite GW games, and I think any kind of minihammer is so cool. Not only is it great for space economy, but armies just look so majestic in this scale!

Been doing warhammer and KoW in 10mm for a while now. Much more satisfying when it comes to the spectacle of it all.

Dude, that's just amazing! I'm really loving the smaller scale armies that you made. It's seems so much more simplified when there is no need to make these larger more detailed models. Sure the larger models look great but if you just want to sit down and play, this looks like the way to go. Great Job!

cooooooooool

Damn, I've never really considered small scale stuff but you've just convinced me to get into it. Great video as always!

Now I want to see a huge horde of 10ml taking up a whole 6 by 4 table!!

This is genius. I've thought about this before, but never seriously considered doing it. You make it look easy. Awesome video.

Good stuff, this was fun to watch and learned something new. Thanks Luke.

Luka from the group here, I'd love to hear your thoughts on the "smaller" playing experience. I imagine going full KoW bases and cramming the 10mm minis on would look spectacular, but you'd loose the smaller table advantage. In any case, I'd love to see you do a bigger table with towns and castles and stuff; get some terrain techniques for smaller scales (Epic, Titanicus, ...) in.

I think this video just pushed me over the edge of buying a 3d printer. I cant believe you painted 2 armies in 2 days, gonna give this scale a try

I have a heap of 10mm Dark Ages figs. This would work perfectly for that! Really got me wanting to make a little board 😲 There's something about the little scales that looks so epic on the table. Honestly watching my Dad and his best mate refight Waterloo in 6mm when I was a kid, rolling dice for them and "consulting" on what orders to give what regiment is still one of my favourite gaming memories 😁

Sir, you ARE the Bob Ross of Miniature gaming! It's so inspirational and every time I watch one of your vids I just wanna start build a giant gaming table :) And the MB Picture is brilliant :D :D

I have always wanted to do Lord of the Rings 10mm games.

Yay Minihammer! I've been printing out some Forest Dragon elves and Cromarty Forge Dwarves to start. Also ordered some Chaos Warriors from Laran Miniatures. Well on the way to having all of the armies in 10mm. Nice work on the board and armies Luke!

Hi Luke, I got some of your base ready stuff because of this video, and after my first try, it's great. I am really satisfied with it, and will use it for my printed 10mm armies.

This is brilliant. Remember a mate and i did something like this way back. We used warmaster minis to play warhammer. Instead of scaling things down, we just swapped from imperial to metric. Worked great, but we had to go easy on each other when moving units. As models could easy get a nudge or having difficulty getting exact measurement.

Yeah, please do it in big numbers! Those packed regiments will look amazing.

I remember just digging up small grass turfs, breaking off twigs to make trees and collecting rocks before a game and arranging on parents coffee table in the 90s. Parent wasn't happy but it worked! Just chucked it back in garden when finished. Have you ever tried Infinity?

One of the best videos I feel that you have put out in along time, I went the FDM printer route but this has made me want to try a resin printer.

I have been thinking about doing this for years. Great work really inspiring

Swap inches for cm rather than halving movement/distances :)

Tempted to bash something like this out for the office when we're finally back in!

Man, this is absolutely brilliant 😍! I resisted the temptation of KoW for years because I don't have time for a personal project of that size... This changes everything 😁

Just getting into Warmaster, which I intend to also use with small scale KoW. I'm actually really psyched seeing what other people have done so far, looking forward to getting my own stuff.

I've been considering buying some 10mm or 15mm minis and instead of using inches just using centimeters. If inch-based games use 25/28mm minis, that's roughly 10mm scale for centimeters...

Holy crap that looks great! Now I want to try this out, gotta buy a printer first... I’d love to see some 40K armies as well. Keep up the great work Luke!

Love it! I do 6mm historics (Ancients) - and halve my 15mm rules measurements. It works so well. I'd like to see more terrain making in this scale.

Love it. All the things about this! Such a cool way to throw out an impressive gaming experience without having to buy a new house to have room.

I'd love to see regiments in that scale on the standard sized bases for KoW. It's something I've always dreamed of since seeing all those pictures of both WHFB and 40k where there's hordes either side screaming at one another :)

I would love to see a huge surge of interest in small scale gaming like this. I think it’s much more impressive to see massive armies on a standard 6x4 table as opposed to 1/4-1/2 at normal game scale

Woop. Last year I started playing WFB 3rd edition in 10mm and have been using both metal and 3d models, resin terrain and printed buildings. I have been updating a sort of blog site that will tell the story of the campaign and I have a topic on a forum that goes back to the first day I decided to do it and where I am now. Agreed on the basing, I use small bases where possible. It is great fun and has so many plus points!!

Had the same epiphany when I switched to 15mm. Such a great big world of hobby goodness in such a small package! Keep the smaller scale videos coming!

Once my 3d printer arrives, I'm planning on doing this to make a travel D&D set.

After seeing some of the tiny Epic 40K minis painted by WIB, I've been collecting some and using them for regular 40K games. The regular 40K rules apply, only the distances have to be converted. I really like the compact playing space.

Love what you did here - It's actually put me over the edge on picking up a printer this year. I find myself inexorably drawn to the smaller (

For a few days work, this is fantastic! These 10mm models are really nice too, I might print a few and see how I get on :)

Luv it. I want to get into some 10mm wargaming cause til now i only play skirmish games because of all the stuff you need and im moving in my van a lot so i cant take too much space for wargaming ;)

Super nice to see you do this Luke! If anyone is interested, we have been playing 10mm Fantasy Battles for several years and we have built up quite a big "Minihammer" community over on Facebook! Feel free to visit us!

13:40 there's the miniature for the video xDDD Love your videos man

Outstanding job! and with 3d printing become more common this is a great idea for any table top wargames.

I remember years ago seeing a travel 40K set someone made with old Epic 40k marines that were not multi-based, and magnetized to be used with a travel version board game that had been modded.

"I go this army done in a day" - insane. Now I'm off to look at 3D printers...

Amazing video, would love to see you do some more armies and would love to see how your quest for high quality 10mm sculpts go. Definetly going to give this a shot.

I just got back into Warmaster myself recently after not touching them for 15 years. The new 3D printing models are insane. I was actually going to try some of your basing materials on them eventually and I appreciate the siving tip.

10mm the way forward, love to see more of this.

My only suggestion is how to stop the warping. I have found that the very thin parcel tape (normally brown) has no 'give' in it, along its length. Apply this in strips on the underside in both up and down and horizontal directions. It is very resistant to linear tension and thus prevents cardboard or foam board from warping. Barry

Amazing!! I'm planning on painting an Epic 40k army sometime this year, can't wait to play in a smaller scale!!

Amazing video mate, super huge fan of your base ready range. I'm just getting into 6mm myself, looks proper epic!

Wow, this video really jazzed me up! I'd love to see this for 40k! Also if you can think of a way to make it work, I would flip my lid if you tried something for 10mm single based unit skirmish games. I've long wanted to be able to have some sort of 12"x12" terrain board and 10mm units for a micro skirmish game that I could have on my desk at work to play during down times or at a lunch table!

Going back to warhammer 40k epic.

Quality video & so satisfying to watch. Great job 👏🏼

That looks awesome! I will definitely use these techniques for my next Adeptus Titanicus terrain.

Forest Dragon has a patreon that produces these miniatures. The GumRoad link will allow you to purchase earlier files. Currently, they have finished up Vampire Counts and have begun with a Bretonnian/Chivalry faction. Here's the link: www.patreon.com/forestdragon/posts

Expecting famous 10mm Terrain from you :-)

Excellent video. I did the same thing years ago making a travel version of 40k. All the units came from epic 40k. The bases were magnetic fridge magnet, the terrain printed paper stuck to a metal tray. I made scaled down templates and rulers so no rule changes were needed for measured distances.

it's really cool to see more people enjoying 10mm kings of war, i've been playing it ever since the counter charge podcast had an episode about small scale gaming a few years back. while i understand there are many practical reasons for small scale minis- it's cheaper, takes less space, etc- for me it's all about feel. i really love the scale and how it looks on the table. very cinematic. one thing i didn't expect was the smaller scale allows some experimentation. for example, we occasionally play games where we increase the range of missle weapons to something closer to real world scales (we also increase the magic ranges too, although i can't really call it "close to real world scale!") this would be all but impossible at 28mm scale on account of size, but for the 10 mili's it's a nice little twist to the game. for those who don't have access to 3d printers i've gotten my minis from magister militum and pendraken. pendrakens warband minis have an amazing amount of variety as far as poses go.

Epic warhammer should make a comeback. Epic was the scale of the models

WARHAMMER EPIC! I wonder if i still have those tiny minis, in my basement(attic?)?

If you're like me and lose track of everything, a nice little color coding system painted around a base can help this immensely. I feel like scale needs to be a more talked about topic. I like DnD, and my idea I've been toying with is making three characters for my two players. One tiny mini for open-world, one regular sized mini for simple dungeon crawling, and one character bust to show off their characters.

Fantastic idea and the end result is well worth it, great inspiration

"I don't any terrain..." Bloody hell reality really is falling apart haha Speaking of smaller models, I use smaller scales to test out new systems so I'm not spending loads of money on systems I'm unsure about. 15mm is a pretty good starting point, loads of options and its easy to scale down from 28mm because its basically 1/2 the scale that we're used to for both rules and terrain. Works pretty well for skirmish games as well as they can be played on as small as a 2ftx2ft board to simulate pretty large skirmish maps. Great fun. Speaking on the topic of 40K! I've yet to find anyone who can convince me otherwise that normal 40k rules played with 15mm minis or even 6mm minis on 25mm rounds is not the way! The rules make no sense for firefights and artillery and sniping on such a small board set up for what they are supposed to represent. But at a smaller scale using the same measurements etc. suddenly the idea of rolling up with a basilisk to shell a building makes sense! Okay rant over haha

Please do it for 40k! One thing I would do differently: I would have opted for a small ready printed battle mat instead of making a solid board. You even can roll these things nicely up

Oh man... I've been looking for an excuse to paint up the warmaster stuff just sitting in my attic... but now you got me looking at 3d printers, new armies, and Kings of War! Looks like some fun projects in my future.

What an awesome video mate. Really opened my eyes.

You can probably find the epic 40k stl files online that would be a cool video

Pleeeease do this for 40k! I would love to be able to play a smaller scale version. Not to mention being able to introduce friends and family to an easier, more convenient, and far cheaper version. Love ur stuff Luke! Keep up the amazing work!

Man that was cool as hell, great work. ❤️

I love love love tiny scale miniatures, and in a way it kind of kills me that there’s not really a lot of support for playing most tabletop games with anything other than the standard 28/32mm minis. I love what you did here and would definitely be into seeing more videos in the same vein, even exploring how to do higher end terrain like some of your really impressive stuff from the past in smaller scales.

Similar reason (among others) which make Epic a superior game to regular 40k.

Dude, this is basically warmaster, I suggest you to have a look at it. Better ruleset in my opinion

Dude! Awesome! Think of the big ass castles and stuff you could do. Hope to see more of this

I’m a 6mm gamer at heart, so more small scale stuff is always welcome Luke. Thanks

I really hope the ‘Old World’ project is smaller scale

200% see you do this for 40k , there is lots of cool 10/15mm scifi 3d files online , seen some really cool ork stuff ... What do you think the ratio would be for working out base sizes? say like abaddon/DP goes on 60mm bases normally, would you just halve all 40k base sizes for 10mm scale .

This gave me so many ideas thank you. I can't stop picturing a 10 mm imperial fist shield wall.

I love your projects. Although I cannot use many techniques as I do not own 3d printer, airbrush, etc. it is always really inspiring to watch you create such amazing stuff! Keep up the good work :)

40k please!!! This was brilliant 👍

definitely love to see a 40k version! This was pretty awesome. If you wood glue the back of your foamboard after it warps from painting it straightens right out. Did this on some pieces I made for my daughter that used foamboard as a larger square base.

This inspired me to go and make a few 10mm kings of war armies. It almost makes me want to convert over to this exclusively. Thanks for the video!

Thank you for a great video! I would love to see you do this for 40k as well. I'm in to Wrath & Glory, and even though there are generally fewer models, it would be awesome to be able to shrink down both the footprint when deployed and the storage space required.

Wow 👏 the 3d printing had me hooked thanks for sharing 👍

This was really cool. I'd love to see you try it with more games

Got into Warmaster 20 years ago. Glad you enjoy the scale :-) Enjoyed you video. I store my most recent armies in stationary cabinets, Only things that don't fit are dragons. (I first got the drawers to store the 15mm Flames of War armies.)

I'm so hyped by this haha can't wait to see what you do with this scale and how far you take it. Would love to have a 3D printer but that's something for the future when space and money aren't issues. But the appeal for painting a whole army in a day is every hobbyist's wet dream lol keep up the great videos mate 😊

That looks fantastic! And I'd absolutely love to see a 10mm 40k setup. Keep up the great work!

Bloomin nice work, mate, good work.

Love this I hope to see more. I get it, but you have a gift, and a love for the art, and hobby. So I hope you keep at it mate.

Great video. Smaller scales work really well and there are some great files out there. As an Epic player would love to see you take on an epic project.
