Unboxing: Kraken Wargames Mat
November 28, 2015 by warzan
We may be in the midst of the Team Yankee Boot Camp but when we got this mat from Kraken Wargames nothing was going to stop us from showing you how great it is.
These realistic looking mats are available in in a variety of designs and sizes and if you're quick you can still pledge to its Kickstarter which ends this weekend.
What design is your favourite?

Well thanks for that one. Once again you are responsible for me hitting a kickstarter @warzan. Hope the bootcamp is going well.
Are we getting a weekender or are you too busy with the bootcamp?
No weekenders this week
Too busy running the Hoover around HQ getting ready for day two lol 🙂
Have a nice weekend!
I’ve made it a tradtion to only fold laundry saturday and sunday while watching the weekender. … now it’s just an annoying job that needs doing.
really nice job they have made with all of them
3×3, 4×4, 6×4
Well I saw the kickstarter before. I was interested but for my taste all these mats out there are a bit to expensive. In the end it´s only a mat with nothing on it.
The images of these particular mats are indeed amazing. I particulary like the desert city.
But seeing them now on the table it seems to be 40k only. For a game of Bolt Action the roads are way to wide.
My other complain is the colour. It looks a bit blueih, but that´s maybe the camera.
I it shiny? In some angles it seemed to reflect a bit.
totally missed this kickstarter – just kicked it for a 6×4 and a 4×4 – thanks for the heads up
The mats are really nice and I don’t think this mat is the best of the bunch. But I might wait till they go retail had my fill of kickstarter right now.
Have been watching this from the start but was unsure due to the 3dnes of it, but after watching the vid and having a ton of the same terrain, I’m going to jump in. There are actually plenty of city mats but they call have the same boring parallel roads, another plus for this one.
Very impressed with this mat, great review guys.
Cracking mat.
Many thanks for the heads up on this Kickstart guys.
They are truly awesome mats & I am in for some of the space mats for my Dropfleet stuff.
Was in on this kickstarter for a while. They have some amazing mats up, including a moon/mars mat that would work for Dropfleet Commander. They’ve acctually been in contact with Hawk Wargames but stated due to DFC still being in development they’ll not make a specific mat for it during the kickstarter.
For Bolt-Action/Frostgrave/Mordheim/Freebooters etc. their Cobblestone mats are amazing!
Can’t believe how detailed the mats are and really liking the rubber back on them. Thinking of getting the Mars or urban mat.
the mat looks first rate reminds me of a recon photo of a town centre.
Those look very nice. When you put the terrain down the rubble seemed to have depth and it looked 3D. It looked like you could reach into the scene.
Fantastic design. Even when you lifted it vertically I thought some of the rubble was going to fall off the mat. Kudos to Karmen on this product.
Some of the nicest mats I’ve ever seen. Just a shame its another bloody kickstarter.
I hope that with Games Workshop on the verge of re-releasing Epic these guys also bring out a mat that would work for 6mm scale. The streets on that city map is more than 4 times bigger than what would be right for 6mm and even the biggest Titan would look tiny on it.
we played on that exact mat on Sunday night, had a great 6 person Dust Tactics battle. It’s a lovely mat.
haha hadn’t viewed the full video before I posted.
gutted I didn’t get on the kickstarter for this, they had a good few mats delivered and the desert city version of that mat is just as good, if not better, for Dust 😉 😉
