Starter Scenario Set Up & New Box Smell Appreciated!

79 Comments

It might seem weird but every wargamer knows the 'new box smell'. So, we've been tinkering around with some of the tables set up by 4Ground and getting set up for folks to enjoy themselves tonight.

Really beautiful tables! Would love to see a helicopter’seye view in a table run with a camera! That mall looks great and seems to be priced well!

Remember taking images of the miniature layout in the box – I painted my kickstarter edition and had some difficulties to find the right slot for the different models.

Taking a wild guess, it’s @lancorz, @warzan and @dignity making the zombie noise in the video intro/outro.

Loving the tables. Saw some kickstarter editions at the crisis show in antwerp.
I was sorely tempted, but it was a bit above my budget.
I absolutely love the comics

so weird seeing @brennon not confined to a fixed frame – he’s loose and unbound! although we have yet to see his legs… actually, does brennon have legs?

Almost as good as the new box smell is the serious case of “Shiny!” you get when you open the box. This is probably the slickest box product that has ever come out of Mantic 😀

Been looking forward to this boot camp and can’t wait for my box to arrive for a game.

My wife has just commented on the video stating its nice to see Ben in his full form rather than just a big head, sure she didn’t mean Ben is arrogant!!

Love the scattered furniture barricades – the upended bedstead in the middle of the field with the gate was classic hide behind zombie terrain. 😀

I wonder if they make that “new box” smell the same way they do the “new car” smell, by spraying before sealing?

Looks great guys, that mall in the background of the opening shot is just so damn impressive. Let’s be honest who doesn’t love new box smell.

Nothing beats that plasticy cardboard smell, to bad nobody has found away to bottle it. It would make a great game room air freshener.

It’s great to see Ben as more than just a “holly” esque head on a screen!
