Squad Marks has new 11th Edition 40k terrain footprint sets in neoprene, acrylic, and MDF, ready to make matched play setup faster and more accurate.
Honestly, the timing is exactly right. Setting up 40k terrain has been a slower-than-it-should-be ritual long before 11th Edition’s matched play terrain layouts landed, and pre-cut footprints are the cleanest way to skip past the measuring.
Squad Marks’ new sets for 11th Edition 40k come in three styles (neoprene, clear acrylic, and MDF), so anyone running matched-play games at home or at the store can pick whichever fits the table best for you.
Keep in mind these are terrain bases only, not full terrain kits, but for anyone trying to make the 11th Edition transition smoother, that’s probably all you need.

- Why it’s good: Locks every footprint to the 11th Edition matched play layout, so terrain placement stays consistent table to table
Consistency is the big win here. That’s because matched play terrain lives and dies by clean footprint placement, especially when players are practicing for events or trying to make their home tables feel closer to tournament layouts. So a terrain area being half an inch off can quietly change movement lanes, block the wrong sight line, or decide whether your expensive unit gets lovingly deleted from across the board.
Best of all, if you already have a set of 10th Edition layouts, Squad Marks also dropped a conversion guide for older 10th Edition footprint owners, so you don’t have to rebuy a full table’s worth of footprints every time the game shifts.
Neoprene, Acrylic, And MDF Give Players Different Table Options
All three versions come with the same 16-piece footprint layout. So the choice really comes down to two questions: how you want the footprints to look on the table, and how much you’re spending to get there.
Neoprene Terrain Footprint Set: $25–$36
The neoprene set is probably the easy pick for regular players and local game stores. It has that familiar gaming mat feel, stays put when someone reaches across the table for a tape measure, and folds into a bag without making you feel like you’re transporting museum glass.
The bases are durable neoprene rubber with the layouts printed right on top, and the design is bright enough to call out clearly during setup but not so loud that it fights your gaming mat for attention.
Clear Acrylic Set: $36–$48
The clear acrylic set is probably the cleaner-looking option of the three. It defines the terrain footprint while letting the mat underneath show through, which is handy if you’ve already spent good money on a nice gaming mat and don’t want half of it covered up by printed templates.
Don’t forget, the acrylic comes with a protective film over the surface that needs to be peeled off before use. So if the finish looks off when you open the package, that’s just the factory layer talking, and a quick peel gets you to the actual finish.
MDF Terrain Footprint Set: $10–$16
The MDF set is the sturdy, no-nonsense option, and it’s also the cheapest of the three by a wide margin. Honestly, MDF already feels at home on hobby tables, especially for terrain trays, objective markers, and the kind of club terrain that gets stacked and hauled between game nights without anyone treating it like fine china.
Plus, the MDF version is available in either a smooth or rough cut, depending on how you want it to feel on your terrain.
Final Thoughts On Squad Marks’ 11th Edition Terrain Footprint Sets
The real value of these Squad Marks sets is the quiet, boring win they pull off every time a game starts. So new edition terrain layouts mean new table habits, and anything that gets players from “where does this go?” to “roll to see who goes first” faster is going to earn a spot in the hobby toolbox.
Plus, with 11th Edition shaking up how 40k armies actually move and shoot across the board, terrain area bases/footprint sets like these feel like one of those low-key hobby pickups that quietly do a ton of work.
