The Millennium Falcon
Starting on the internal rooms
Now I start on the most important part of this build for wargaming – building the internal rooms. If the ship is too open-planned there is no interest in the terrain – without cover it is just mini’s shooting at each other. I’m envisioning cat and mouse games of infantry miniatures sneaking around the ship and taking shots when they can, so I need rooms that aren’t just dead ends with different ways in and out. And on top of that, I want it to contain the elements I remember from watching star wars as a kid.
It is impossible to make the actual layout of the Millenium Falcon – the outside hull props and internal sets were built for the films were different sizes – the rooms literally are too big to fit inside the smaller hull.
I build the rooms walls using a similar method to how I levelled the floors – a card framework covered in grey card and filled with lightweight filler.
