Red Knight Bring you Futuristic Sci-Fi Paper Terrain
March 20, 2012 by brennon
Paper terrain might take a little more effort to get onto the battlefield, but when its done right it looks great. Check out these previews of some Sci-Fi paper terrain from Red Knight Entertainment and see what you think...
The first set will contain 13 different buildings, plenty of city props and road networks to layout below all of this. That's a pretty impressive set to get you started on a new Sci-Fi board for skirmishes or indeed massive battles. When it gets put together like in the first image you can really see the awesomeness of this set.
Is this something you would pick up?
They’re pretty basic compared to a lot of the other paper buildings out, but I suppose that means you can build a lot more quickly to fill out boards at a tourney etc.
Very colourful though. I kinda like it.
Cheap and cheerful PDF’s that you can make up yourself and adorn a battlefield with. If your just starting out and have a good eye for cutting/sticking then this is pretty awesome imo. After all with something like a Sci-Fi board its not so much about the detail but the mass of objects to hide behind and such.
I like the colour schemes on them too. Reminds me of the proper dark future cities.

Any good sci-fi paper terrain that blocks sight is welcome – very useful for quickly setting up an Infinity board that still provides some immersion. The dark tones and amber glows are definitely cyberpunk as well, makes me think of a future red light district. I think this stuff would work well in something like Necromunda or Shadowrun.
Can’t say I’m terribly motivated to pick up this set anytime. There are plenty of free downloads of comparable design and better quality on the web. The glossy finish is a bit of a turn-off for me as well. Though I can see how this might work well for some franchises.
Better quality? Interesting…

I love paper terrain. This set, as mentioned earlier, looks ace for games of Dark Age and such like. I’m left scratching my head though – can you use this for 28mm scale games by printing at different scales?

This shows a 32mm box space compared with a 24mm space. The answer is yes buildings can barely be used for 28/32mm. The base sidewalk building tiles may be used as well however the streets will be out of scale but may still be used for general looks. The larger crates, tall walls, power obelisk and media billboards may also all be used with 28/32mm scale.
Oh and nice one again BOW for finding cool sites – how do you do it???
The color and technical details are great! For 15MM you do not want to have a lot of extra folding and gluing, so the simplicity of these designs are very user friendly IMO.
