They look great, and so simple, but then it usually the simple things that look the best 👍👍

This is a phenomenal idea to add to the realism of this game! Thanks so much for the idea! Gonna go get me some lava rocks now!

DIRTYYETTI tnx mate. My brother who made these is starting his own channel on Star Wars terrain building soon but a little more professional.

@DIRTYYETTI 6 лет назад

irongollem excellent I’d love to check his channel out

That is really a great idea and execution.

@battlefieldcustoms873 4 года назад

this is a fantastic idea! I am going to make a bunch !

@irongollem 4 года назад

We still use them to this day!

Hi! Great tut. Here's an idea: Instead of thin metal bars, use very thick fishing line, especially for very small pieces that are very close to the main rock. The line will not curve.

@irongollem 8 лет назад

+Teo Maragakis Ver well possible. We also have a thick nylon thread from the greenhouse farmers which we use for all kinds of "floating" constructionwork

Genius, pure genius

@yber73 4 года назад

Thanks for the idea :) How do you cut the plexiglass to have the shape of the cardboard base ?

@irongollem 4 года назад

Samuel BRENOT we used a hot wire cutter set to a high voltage and patience or maybe we used a jigsaw

@Kelvinernst1987 10 лет назад

Very very usefull thx buddy

@lyianx 9 лет назад

Can you list all of the materials (and possible links) in the video description? :)

@irongollem 9 лет назад

That might be a good idea! I'll work on it. Someof them are locally bought though so links might not help but i'll try!

@minipop1138 4 года назад

So you can't say what you used?

@seiya209 3 года назад

Dont you have problems when you you hit the asteroids and debris bases ?

@irongollem 3 года назад

In what sense? Basically the acrylic bases match the exact shape of the game pieces to have them tournament legal. In this way if you hit it you would do so with the cardboard tokens as well and you officially crash into it as per the game rules. Haven’t played it in years though so maybe those rules changed? (Mostly my brothers game)

@seiya209 3 года назад

@@irongollem understood sir, i will try to make some

@Howitzer933 8 лет назад

Looks great but how do you modify the rules of the game? The rules gone make the asteroids a "solid" object you can not land on

@Howitzer933 8 лет назад

*dont

@irongollem 8 лет назад

We intentionally stick them on the given cardboard pieces so that they comply with game parts and as such tournament rules. We do not change rules to use these

@Howitzer933 8 лет назад

+irongollem So do you use a duplicate obstacle marker if a player lands directly on the asteroid?

@CrescantBearer 8 лет назад

+Howitzer933 this is why they're magnetized. If a ship is going to land on the asteroid, you just remove the display piece and add it back again once the ship has moved off the asteroid. :)
