Plast Craft Games Cover Your Board In Bourak Terrain
April 5, 2014 by brennon
Plast Craft Games have been doing some stunning Infinity based terrain over the past few months and it's set to continue this month as well. See what you think of these awesome looking Bourak Terrain made for Corvus Belli's game...
As you can see it is very different from the current terrain they have been offering giving a more 'off world' feel to your board. I love all the curves they have going on breaking up the straight lines we're used to seeing with big blocky terrain. That's what some of it looks all together but below are a variety of the packs on offer.
As you can see there is a bunch of different sets that will be heading to a tabletop near you soon. I think that while a whole board looking like this would be awesome it would be neat to mix them in with some of the existing terrain to make a bit more of a colonised look.
I think a fair few of you are going to be loving this stuff and you can check more of it out on the links above.
Will you build your board with this in mind?

I’m impressed, really has a unique look but still scifi enough to work. Does this mean that they’ll be doing more faction specific terrain in the future? Hope so.
Has anyone built any of their other stuff? How easily does it go together being plasticard, I’ve not tried it but of the various laser cut MDF terrain i’ve tried some are far better than others.
I have put together almost everything they make and it is super easy and logical. The stuff was designed to fit together smoothly and be inter-supporting; meaning that the pieces start slightly bendable but as the structure goes together they brace each other and become very rigid. As for durability, I wouldn’t toss them in a bag and lump heavy stuff on top, but I would have no fears about knocking this stuff off a table or jumbling them into a box for transport. After trying plastcraft, I tried to go back to MDF/HDF…. Nope, just can’t do it, plastcraft… Read more »
I like it!
My only concern would be, as a LGC player, could it stand up to the travel and whatnot between game nights.
It’s great to see something different tho.
Oooo, that does look nice.
For me, its just a personal taste issue I have with the design. It looks too Flash Gordon for me. I keep expecting to see Ming the Merciless coming out of that tower. I much prefer the clean blue and white lines of their TME terrain for infinity.
I like it. It’s very Haqqislam. It also wouldn’t look out of place on an Eldar craftworld in 40k.
huscarle,
Yes, you’re right this would work with Haqqislam. I guess I was too fixated on a neo Tokyo anime/ Blade runner look for my PanO and Yu Jing.
I like it – not the same old same old
Aye, this will work great for so many other games. Menoth, Eldar, Retribution, even passable for a shadowrun arcology.
Looking closer at the wall package you can see the Islamic flare in star patterns. I find this very unique and still futuristic.
Very cool. Kind of reminds me of Dune a bit too.
I built a pile of their cargo containers last summer, you can probably find link to my review of them elsewhere on the site. These look like somewhat involved builds, and you will go through superglue like there’s no tomorrow… From the pictures it’s hard to see which details are actually painted on. The biggest drawback of material is that it doesn’t really have any surface texture. Great for smooth sci-fi shapes. Not great for wooden buildings. The stuff is pretty durable, but it can be hard to fix if it does break. I dropped one of my containers and… Read more »
Not to be a total fan-boy for their products (though I do love it), but the face book page shows details that they have a new design process that allows them to etch the material with patterns – I agree, it is a bit hard to repair, but it’s pretty durable
love it !
but think about this :
change the color (jade, red, yellow, black, silver, white…) add some ying yang symbols into globes (globs on wall and everywhere) and here you have Yu jing terrain 🙂
This stuff is fantastic. My jaw dropped looking at it. Unfortunately, I’m sure the price tag for the whole set will send me screaming back to foamcore.
