PlastCraft Games’ Japanese Village Kensei Terrain Now Available
November 24, 2015 by brennon
PlastCraft Games have now released their new Designed For Kensei range of terrain which includes a whole range of normal buildings as well as more important focal points and wooden structures...
Village Life
First off we have a look at both the Feudal Dwelling Set and the Stables which you can use to create a little settlement where the peasants can live.
I would imagine that these buildings are for the people who tend to the monks needs up at the Dojo that we'll be seeing later. I haven't mentioned this already but this is part of their ColorED range which means that it's all ready to go once you've assembled it.
Training Time
Now we have the big Dojo building that will prove to be the focal point for this set. I could see bandits racing towards this to burn it, paid off by a rival Shogun to get rid of these meddlesome warriors.
I love the contrast between the bright red and the plain white of the main building. I think this will make for a really striking tabletop.
Shrines & More
Last but not least we have a look at some of their additional wooden structures which will then embellish the tabletop to make it more 'Japanese'. See what you think of the Pagoda, Shrine Gate plus the Torii & Bridge...
It's always good to see structures like this which add more flavour to the tabletop environment. The Shrine Gate is particularly impressive and as I mentioned when we previewed these I would love to see this as part of a Japanese Yazuka stronghold in a more modern setting.
We also don't have enough bridges and rivers to cross in games. Thankfully the folks at PlastCraft have supplied a bridge and you could pick up a few of these packs to help make a great tabletop with lots of chock points.
What do you think of the range?

I used their post-apocalypse range in a couple of games this weekend (as seen on these here forums) and was impressed with it. I think I’ll be picking this range up too.
I really like it and will make sure to look for it at Salute next year, I can see plenty of uses for it especially when combined with some Infinity Yu-Jing, Malifaux Ten Thunders not to mention Mordheim Skaven and a Nippon themed Imperial Guard army I’m dreaming up.
Oh and Kensei of course! (I’m interested in their Kickstarter due at the end of the month!)
HMM my mishima would love it!
I’ve looked at them and must admit I prefer Oshiro for town buildings and 4Ground for country ones.
