Cyber Undead Bases with Puppets War
February 11, 2012 by brennon
We saw some cool looking painted versions of both the Cyber Bike and Insects last week, but check out these new bases now available from Puppets War, the Cyber Undead Bases.
This is just three of the five bases that you get in the set. While some of them look nice and practical for mounting your figures others might involve a bit more work than just sticking them down. Either way to tie an army together some nice scenic bases are always great.
Also if you remember the renders we showed you not long ago, you might recognise these heads recently from the 3D printers...
Looking good so far and will be great when these are finally released. Seems Puppets War are seriously upping the ante!
Going to grab those Cyber Undead Bases?
It might be hard to place a mini on some of the bases. Looks nice mind you.
The heads are looking sharp, but the bases…
Here’s the thing – they’re grandiose enough to put a C’tan Shard on, but they aren’t right because they show the ruined form of the ‘dead’ Necrontyr, rather than a ruin from when their civilisation was in full flower. It’s like setting a film in Ancient Rome using the Colosseum as it is today when back then it was obviously intact. It’s off-putting. These look cool, but if you use them you aren’t thinking your army’s fluff through fully.
I suppose if you were going to fluff it it, it would be that the tomb world was almost destroyed, leaving the surface of the world destroyed. So when they awoke from the tombs this is what they were seeing – so you could have an army ‘retaking’ their destroyed tomb world.

or to put it in an even easier phrase :most necrons “slept” for millions of years …. maybe some of the stuff just got ruined ^^
