That’s where 3D printing enters the picture, because I can’t think of an invention more suited to a miniature wargamer’s needs than a 3D printer. But when the army that you’re using can cost you into the hundreds of dollars, it’s hard to justify spending just as much on a nice piece of terrain. While that gets the job done, it certainly isn’t as much fun as a well thought out and fully painted piece of terrain. It isn’t uncommon to see makeshift buildings constructed with taped together cereal boxes or random bottles and cans strewn around the game board. And when you add some terrain into the mix, a good strategist could wipe the table with you without even trying.įor such an important and potentially game winning part of the game, most miniature wargamers don’t put nearly as much effort into their terrain pieces as they do their armies. You could have the deadliest, most powerful characters and troops in the game, but if you don’t know how to use them a lesser army with a better game strategy will beat you every time. Miniature games are more than anything a game of army selection and strategy, and you really need to have both to be successful. Sure, everything that you like about it is there, but it just isn’t very satisfying. Playing miniature tabletop wargames like Warhammer or Warmachine without any terrain or obstacles on the game board is a little bit like getting ice cream on a cold winter day.
