The Ion Age: Gebäude
Von The Ion Age kommen weitere SciFi- Gebäude im 15MM Maßstab.
Early on in the initial expansion of Humanity back to the stars within the Prydian Precinct it was noted that although large cities could be built given time in the short term a need was logged for structures which could cope with variable terrain and planetary conditions. Designing such structures was beyond the abilities of all but the core systems who turned to the pioneers who created the ubiquitous Rubbacrete and Golglass. These pioneers created materials which revolutionised construction and brought about massive improvement in lives all across the Precinct; The Seorc Compono Guild.
Seorc Compono Guild (SCG) brought their finest minds to focus on the challenge and created one of the miracles of the century the Habitation Dome Riser System (HDRS). The HDRS would be standardised and shipped aboard vessels heading off world anywhere in the Precinct where they could quickly accommodate a sizeable population. It would be more than housing though as the HDRS featured additional modules which could expand the living area and turret or assembly mounts for specialised purposes. These purposes varied but typically they included self defence, fortification, repulsar platform landing pads, spire communications, hurwent shielding and power generation. Added to this was a capacity for landing aircraft such as the Skylark and hardpoints that would act as fortifications. These allowed corrals to be planned for protecting ground vehicles such as the Adder and Mullo series. A larger and stronger built command dome was fabricated to act as a centre point in the larger HDRS settlements from where all activities could be directed. Alongside this were a series of separate spires each with a purpose such as fabrication or power generation that could be dropped easily alongside HDRS modules.
The HRDS can be found on more than fifty planets and countless vacuum environments (it is a pressurised structure system) and is utilised by everyone from the Prydian Army to the lowest of the Marcher Barons and civilian authorities too. Single Hab Domes to small groups and hard points right up a city of a hundred thousand people all in HRDS towers. These larger settlements make great use of connecting corridors which can allow easy access to each point in the settlement without having to venture outside. In some locales they never got around to replacing them before the Civil War began. Camarthan Prime was one of those places.

Cool.
Aber im Moment fällt mir kein Si-Fi Tabletop auf 15mm Basis ein.
Was für welche gibt es da?
Gruß Kiwi
Ok…
Ion Age (hätte ich mir ja denken können)
Dachte am Anfang es währe ein reiner Gelände Hersteller.
Gibt es aber noch andere Systeme?
Gruntz ist das wohl beliebteste Regelwerk für 15mm. Figurenhersteller gibt es eine Menge.
Hersteller gibt es wohl einige für 15 mm SciFi Minis, davon auch einige 40k angehauchte. Allerdings sind die bei uns weitgehend unbekannt, was vor allem an der mangelnden Verbreitung der Regelwerke liegt. Es braucht wohl erst einen Hersteller, der richtig Geld in die Hand nimmt, um so etwas größer aufzuziehen.
Allerdings sind ja momentan die 10 mm Sci Fi Tabletops mit Dropzone Commander und Planetfall wohl angesagter.
Nur in Europa,
die Amies scheinen 15mm immer noch zu bevorzugen.
Und soviele 10mm Systeme gibt es gar nicht mir würden nur DZC, Planet Fall und Heavy Gear einfallen, und grade mal letzteres stammt aus den US von A.
Während es da drüben 15mm und 6mm Hersteller wie Sand am Mehr gibt und auch massig Regelwerke, von denen Gruntz das ist das mich bisher am meisten überzeugt hat, da es Spaß macht ohne an Tiefe zu verlieren und mich jede Mini spielen läßt die passt vom Not Me bis Gozilla geht a alles.
Das Problem bei 15mm allerdings ist oft, dass Regelwerk und Minis nicht aus einer Hand sind, was immer mal wieder zu Lücken im Miniangebot führt. Weiterhin sind die meisten 15mm-Anbieter eher Garagenfirmen, was den ständigen Nachschub an Material regelmäßig zum Stocken bringt.
Der Vorteil von 15mm ist aber, das Regelwerk und Figuren oft nicht aus einer Hand sind. Das bedeutet man kann die Figuren nehmen die einem gefallen. Weiterhin sind viele 15mm-Anbieter eher Garagenfirmen die noch mit Herzblut dabei sind und nicht nur das große Geld sehen
Weil öfter danach gefragt wird – Eine Übersicht über die verschiedenen Systeme gibt es bei Dropship Horizon:

Schickes 15 mm SciFi Gelände. Allerdings erscheint es mir persönlich etwas teuer. Eventuell fehlt auch nur ein vernünftiger Größenvergleich und die Dinger sind größer als von mir gedacht.
Gibt da noch Tomorrow’s War von Osprey / Slitherine, quasi die Sci-Fi Variante von Force on Force.
Bei IonAge wollte ich eigentlich schon länger was bestellt haben, aber deren leicht gehobene Preise + Porto haben mich bisher geblockt.
Die sehen toll aus. Von der Grösse her erinnert mich 15 mm immer an so klassische Aufbaustrategie-Computerspiele.
Ob die wohl gut zu Planetfall Invasion passen würden. Sieht jedenfalls sehr interessant aus.
Die Gebäude von denen sind im Gegensatz zu den (meisten) Figuren und Fahrzeugen ziemlich gut gelungen. Nachdem Critical Mass keine Gebäude mehr verkauft, sind die sicherlich eine lohnende Alternative.
