I'm looking at Mayhem Rail, since our next RPG game will start with a rail scene. As I'm using 15mm figs, I'm wondering: would it be extremely fiddly to build a wagon/platform at 50%? How fast, roughly, can I come up with a wagon or two plus platform? Is this a matter of a few hours/one afternoon, an extended weekend, or a whole week? From the catalogue pictures, this seems to be a relatively straightforward build, but you never know.

Thanks!

Are you doing interiors? Openings on the train?

The cars themselves are sandwich folds for the sides and a box fold for the bottom. The roof is box-ish, with some angles. Interior pieces might be tough that small.

Open platforms are a simple box fold. Roof you might have issues with the columns but probably not.

I agree with the above, and would pretty much say it will be as fiddly as you make it. If you try to do transparencies and fold out doors and other little details, that level of reduction would increase degree of difficulty quite a bit.

OK, thanks. That's about what I thought. I'll probably get the set this weekend, then.

For a platform you may want to look at Gothic Realms - the sewer walkways work quite well in that regard.
