Hi !

A bit of time off... reading sometimes but not able to answer or look properly...so to begin WOOOOAH ! Surprised

That's what I was waiting...I've a ton of pdf there to cut and glue but have lately no time...so that is for me right now... I'll look at the cost to ship to spain but I'm quite sure that it has to be a killer to not ask at least one of all... It can be preordered ? where ?

Looked through the entire wyrd-games store and didn't see it. Maybe I missed it but I don't think it's up there.

Unfortunately for me there's no shop near home (only at flight in the main land)...fortunately for me there's internet and I don't have to wait more for the trip to a bigger city in the main land to have my dosis of games !

I've made the question to 2 online stores I usually buy (one french and one german) to see if some of them will have the product ... if I get no answer in a few days I will ask it to one of the shops in the wyrd home page (for sure the shipping cost to spain will be expensive but I suposse that the cost here in Europe it will be 49$ = 49€ ... so asking it in the USA at leas will be cheaper)

Will wait a bit but !

Any idea how much a set weighs?

bayushi_shogo · Posted: 07-31-2010, 02:28 AM Post subject:

OOOOk ! there i go... the changing rate is good and the shipping cost (and time delivery) will be less....- and I can take a look at the store and see if they have some of the others things I'm triying to find... thanks for the tip !

Anybody knows if we have to buy also the Combo Connector pack or if I buy the 3 sets I would have 3 connectors sets also ? I don't want to have more connectors that needed but don't want to end with a 3 packs to build and notihing to stick it togethe ??

Thanks for all

But the real question is: How many connectors will we need per pack of terrain? I guess I'd buy one set just to be on the safe side, then add more if I see I need them...

While it depends greatly on what sort of build you're going for, and which set you're using (by and large, the Streets set would use more I-Clips than the Houses, while the Houses would use more T- and L-Clips than the Streets, with the Sewers being somewhere in between), I'm pretty sure that you'll need extra sets of clips - especially if you're wanting to try to use everything at once. On the other hand, if you're going for a standard table size (3x3 (Malifaux) to 4x6 (Warhammer/Warhammer 40k)), then you should be able to do pretty much any build you want after the second or third set without needing any more Clips - which you'll have anyways, since you might need a second set to finish covering the smallest area, and will definitely need three sets to cover the largest (Ignoring Apocalypse setups for 40k, which will eat up as much terrain as you want to throw at it).

OK, after doing some analysis on this, here's what I've found:
Using the Streets set (best coverage out of all the sets), and going for a single level of coverage, you'll need:
3x3 table: 2 sets, and will use 157 T or I Clips (no extra connector sets needed/2 extra Clips sets needed if only using I clips)
4x4 table: 3 sets, and will use 290 T or I Clips (1 set of extra clips needed/5 extra Clips sets needed if only using I clips)
4x6 table: 4 sets, and will use 436 T or I clips (3 sets of extra clips needed/7 extra Clips sets needed if only using I clips).
Hm... Looks like my initial order of 2 each will be a bit light to handle Warhammer/40k, but should cover everything else quite handily.

In Australia, Phoenix Forge has them in their pre-order section here http://www.phoenixforge.com.au/c/254718/1/malifaux.html and I imagine that Realm of Legends www.realmoflegends.com.au will have them as they also stock Malifaux.

...and at $49AU, I find that price point very agreeable, even with the exchange rate the way it is...ie the Oz is strong at the moment and most of us are buying from the UK or the US.

wow. simply wow. i have had so many questions concerning ink usage and if my printer will handle cardstock that have stopped me from usingt this product before, but not now!!! I am counting the days now. I really hope that you guys do a chunky dungeons version of this exciting new product. you guys would steal the market imho...you alreay about to take it with the release of terraclix.
Thank you for making this broke DMs dreams come true!!!!

My whole group is really excited about it, we can't wait for our store(s) to get it! As much as we try to build the TLX-stuff we have, we all have busy times right now, most of us being students with lots of exams those past months, others having just become parents... We will eventually get enough TLX stuff ready to play, but with TCP, we can play with amazingly beautiful terrain right out of the box!

And yeah, that means we'll use both lines. All three, actually, if you count the pre-TLX, since several sets are on my wishlist for their amazing-ness. Smile

In one of my trips to the states I took back nearly 90 pounds of gaming material inside my snowboard bags :p Some years ago taking an extra sports bag used to be very cheap (my second snowboard table costed 100$, and it was like 60 pounds between the table and the books), no idea now...

Does Wyrd's site have a listing for TerraClips yet? I couldn't find them.

Maelstrom is a really good and serious shop, I highly recommend it!

I am pre-ordering one of each set from them, but as a Malifaux player I am a little concerned the sets won't be fully playable until at least one extension is released for props: Malifaux (as I'm sure many other skirmish games) requires quite a lot of things to duck and hide behind, walls, fences, barrels etc... and I think the empty streets/sewers will be quite hard to play by themselves (especially considering that shooty crews in Malifaux are quite powerful already).
SO I'm ordering the sets now to give Terraclip the support I think it deserves, and wait patiently until the suggestion thread opens to submit idea; and I hope we'll see those props/alternative tiles appearing soon to give the scenery its full potential (what I particularly think is really good is the tile size of Terraclip which is perfect for Malifaux, ie if one wants to have an area terrain, one just has to place that perfect 3"x3" small tile area, so technically I can see how extensions can be released containing replacement tiles with lots of different type of area, rubbles, mud, whateverness).
I LOVE YOU WWG!!!!!

Hi all,
my first post here...discovered WWG a couple of days ago looking for 3D terrain for my group and i have to say that Terraclips looks simply fabulous.
Placed a preorder from Maelstrom (i'm Italian, and while there is a large community of RPG players here, there aren't many retailers covering these products) and i just can't wait to lay my hands on them.
I really,really hope that they will have enough success to warrant addtional sets
Keep it coming guys!
