Good terrain for the new Star Wars Legion game can push your tabletop experience to the next level. Don’t miss out on these great pieces from Imperial Terrain.

If you are in the market to upgrade your tabletop gaming experience than you absolutely need to check out some of these amazing terrain pieces from Imperial Terrain.

They were kind enough to send over a few for me to look at and I’ve got to admit that I’m pretty blown away.  The detail on these pieces are extremely high, and all of them have some type of battlefield functionality that makes them superior to simple rocks and trees.

Imperial Terrian: Small Mechanics Shop

shops

These little shops make perfect buildings for any setting.  They feature a mostly flat roof, which accommodates fitting troops on top, and even the occasional speeder bike.  The feature a built-in ladder on one side to facilitate easier climbing up and down.  They are tall enough to easily fit troopers inside as well.  The two doorways offer multiple paths in or out, and the removable roof allows you to separately move and measure units above and below.

Having buildings with an interior that is accessible during the game, really enhances the possibilities.  Perhaps you place an obstacle inside, rather than on the roof?   Perhaps you hide units leaders inside after grabbing an objective!   These little shops are very versatile and beautifully detailed.

Landing Pad

The Landing Pad is simply amazing. It’s hard to say more than that, simply because the size and detail here are unparalleled.  In the above picture, there are actually two landing pads, joined by a leaf, which extends the top platform, however, it is possible to connect 4 or more for even larger platforms. Each individual landing pad has an elevator door, a ladder, and enough space to land a standard starfighter on the top. They are about 7 1/2 inches tall, which means they are considered height 2 as well.

Having terrain that is height 2 offers some very interesting game mechanics, in addition to simply being big and beautiful. Luke Skywalker, for example, cannot simply jump up there from the ground. Though if he were on a tall enough roof of a nearby structure, then possibly he could. The ladder, however, does allow easier access to the top. The elevator, if you allow it to be used in your game, can offer alternate paths to the top as well.

Imperial Forward Oupost

The Imperial Forward Outpost has several modular pieces that allow you to build it however you wish.  There is also a gate that can rise and fall as well.  Perhaps there is a control panel, or perhaps you agree that it will be closed until the beginning of turn 3, or perhaps you decide that the get is a destructible piece.   There are so many possibilities with this outpost, that you may want to get multiples.

The interior is also full of intricate details, such as supply crates on the ground, and highly detailed floor grating.  It allows troops on the top or the bottom, and can be set up as a small garrison, a wall across the battlefield, or with enough sets, a fully fledged castle!

Summary

I absolutely love these pieces and will be using them in many future battles.  Look for them in battle reports!  I can’t wait to see how they influence the game!  If you’d like to get your own, head on over to Imperial Terrain and either get an STL file to print yoursel, or if you prefer they can print them for you and ship it!  I might be ordering some more in the future!
