Exclusive! PlastCraft Add To Color-ED Line-Up With Post-Apocalyptic Terrain
September 9, 2015 by brennon
PlastCraft are going to be adding to their ColorED line-up with an impressive range of Post-Apocalyptic Terrain! If you're looking to create a wasteland fit for any number of interesting adventures involving scrap and road warrior gangs this could be a good place to start...
Gas Town
First off let's have a look at some of the individual components that make up this board layout you're seeing below. We kick things off with something every wastelander needs to have knowledge of, Gas Stations.
As well as scatter terrain like fencing there are other more ramshackle structures to go along with the likes of the Gas Station. A huge Barn is also included in the line up which I have a feeling you're going to be able to scuffle around inside of.
If you're hunting for goods then you might also want to give into the old Diner and scavenge in their freezer (if it still works!) or raid it for cans just in case the bandits didn't get them all.
They have even put together a Power Station or Pumping Station of some description which you can see here and would work as a neat focal point for an objective in game. It's always tempting to make the biggest building the objective but sometimes the smaller ones are more fun.
Everything looks set to be one hell of a landscape to fight through with your wasteland survivors or maybe just for a zombie apocalypse. One of the biggest boons from this terrain is that it's all pre-coloured and ready to go with a little assembly.
Tagging Terrain
One of the aspects of this that I like the most is the way they've added the graffiti to everything. This is something that could be hard to achieve with a free hand so it's nice to see it already coating the sides of these structures.
Overall the detail is pretty spot on when it comes to these buildings and I think they've done well to give them a realistic look. A little bit of weathering, some softening of the edges to the terrain, and something to blend it into the tabletop could make these a great buy for anyone making a wasteland.
The Table!
If you'd like to see how it all fits together then PlastCraft have also provided us with some bigger images showing off the board as a whole. Of course be aware that some of the scatter terrain isn't from their collection but could give you some handy hints for trying it yourself...
Fairly stunning I think you'd agree. Now the only thing left to do is keep an eye out tomorrow for its release and decide what games you're going to play on it.
What do you think of this new range?

Very Nice. These would work for plain-old, run-down, forgotten highways in ‘Murica, too.
Pre-Apocalypse then 😉
Wow I can’t wait to start gaming in Tennessee or West Virginia.
Exactly.
Even some spots in Rural Pennsylvania not too far from where I live.
I think they should put the BoW Ice Cream van on the corner.
Great news; I’ve got a bunch of the Infinity ColorED stuff and couldn’t be happier with it, so I’ll be picking this stuff up not long after it gets released.
Looks good but I’d really like to see more for the Infinity range like their TAG hanger.
This is yellin’ Punkapocalyptic all over! 😀
this sort of terrain makes me want to find a game that I can play on it.
Ask and you shall receive!
“This is not a test” is a post apoc skirmish game which is a lovechild of Necromunda and Fallout. My club is playing and loving it.

This shows us that we are living in post-apoc but the cool nuclear apocalipsys never happen -.- I WANT MY MONEY BACK!
Leave blabling aside, it does look amazing and makes better gaming experience, sharing it right now.
This reminds me of the film Tremors with the giant maggot thinks?
things not thinks D’oh.
I love the built-out camper van. Although it might not be the most suitable stylewise I could still use this stuff for a more dilapidated part of the Infinity universe. Perhaps an Antipode overrun frontier town on Ariadna. Or a slum housing the less lucky Pano population.
I was thinking maybe it would be good for MERCS or Batman?
I think this looks fantastic! Light weight, easy to set up, and lots of diversity. Sounds good to me
I like the idea, but I’m not overawed with the look of it. I know they have tried to make it look like white washed wood that has eroded/corroded/flaked back to the wood, but it kind of looks like their printer was running out of ink, like the white is a little too clean. Same for the larger barn building, you have all the corrosion on the corrugated iron sheeting, with the paint flaked off, but I have never seen a large corrugated barn painted white before, so it doesn’t sit well in my minds eye, looking more like a… Read more »
I agree…I like the concept but it’s too white for my liking. I’d have to repaint it if I buy some…or give it a wash to try and dirty that white up
Oh looks prefect for This is not a test game
I am most interested in the roads…. can you get those?
