Silas7 Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Has anyone seen these up close? https://www.games-workshop.com/en-US/Necromunda-32mm-Bases-2017 I like em but if they have the same lack of crispness as the sector imperialis bases i'd have to pass.

Tyberos the Red Wake Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Has anyone seen these up close? https://www.games-workshop.com/en-US/Necromunda-32mm-Bases-2017 I like em but if they have the same lack of crispness as the sector imperialis bases i'd have to pass. They LOOK uncrisp from photos, but we all know plastic models unpainted can look less crisp in photos due to lighting. Spikey Bits did an unboxing, he said the detail is standard GW quality (i.e. crisp), but the bases themselves are not as detailed and deep as the Sector Mechanicus ones, so they APPEAR less crisp. So basically the Necromunda bases are crisp, but the sculpts are simple and shallow. Hope they make them in 40mm so I can finally rebase my army to Zone Mortalis without having to use the outdoorsy industrial Sector bases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not being rude, but how are you calling these outdoorsy?...no gravel,sand,dirt or debris to suggest that?... Mithril Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyberos the Red Wake Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 The grating makes it look like an industrial complex, which are typically outdoors, even when roofed. Think the scenery it goes along with, or the walkways around a nuclear power plant. Interior bases, on the other hand, would be like the Necromunda ones. Ship decks, Space Hulks, and Zone Mortalis typically have a single slab aesthetic. The two-level design of the Sector Mechanicus bases screams outdoors/open area, and not cramped interior.

MagicHat Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 I would say they are definitely crisper then Sector Imperialis, although they feel kinda samey. Also, you apparently get them a random number of each. Checking my 25mm, I have 14 from underhive, 20 from 2 packs of 10 and 10 from the barricades and objectives. Here is a picture how many of each sort I got from each pack. Only the 14 from Underhive in top left had one of every sort. Of my 10 32mm, 7 are the same, then 2, and 1. Although there seems to only be 4 variants of the 32mm, I still missed one. Silas7 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MithrilForge Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 fair enough, but iv'e seen many an industrial building interior and storage warehousing with mesh decking in real life ... anyways, each to their own. @ Silas7 - Not a Problem mate, when i finish some i'll post em up in a day or so, i myself hated the last batch of bases that they made (a friend has his army on them and although his army is awesome i still think the bases are naff) Ever since they made the New "outdoorsy" Sector Mechanicus bases and these new Necromunda ones i can say they def are much better !!

Stoic Raptor Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 What I like about them is that they have a flat surface - I don't have to move my model all around to find a spot where the feet are flat on the floor.

If they were on a sprue you probably should have gotten a more even distribution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagicHat Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 They were all pre-clipped. How many of each did the rest of you end up with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silas7 Posted December 3, 2017 Author Share Posted December 3, 2017 I haven't gotten any but I've only bought one sector imperialis box to go by, which now that I'm looking at i notice the box says 'made in china'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarabando Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 i got 2 boxes of the necro base and they are nice quality, pre clipped with almost no flash etc. Detail are crisp and different to the Sector imperialis so that i can break up the units.
