If you've got access to a 3D printer and play any kind of sci-fi or post-apocalyptic miniature wargame, we've found a Humble Bundle you need to check out. The 'Urban Apocalyptic Wasteland 3D Printable Models 2' bundle contains digital models for everything from a modular trench system and concrete bunkers, to fungus-infested barricades, to sci-fi hover vehicles, to multi-part Trench Crusade warbands. Buying this all separately from the sculptor Hayland Terrain would set you back $737 (£560), but until December 11 it's available as one bundle for just $25 (£23).
Reader, I am very sorely tempted. This is foolish of me - I already have a 3D printable modular trench system from backing the Trench Crusade kickstarter, not to mention masses of scenery from a Warmachine 3D tribes subscription. And I'm going into British winter, with all my printers stored in a basically uninsulated out-building, which plays havoc with the quality of prints I get from them. And yet…
I won't cover everything that's in the bundle, but I will pull out the things that caught my eye and which miniature wargames they're going to support. I've already mentioned the trenches, bunkers, and modular infantry for Trench Crusade, so to finish that off I'll mention that there are also concrete crucifixes that should provide cover in no-man's land.
Trench Crusade players - especially Black Grail fans - could also use some of the 'Infested accessories' packs. These are modern homegoods and street items - from beds, to barricades, to dumpsters, and cars - overtaken by vile fungus. Perfect for a zombie apocalypse game based on The Last Of Us, or making Nurgle themed terrain in Warhammer 40k. And if you want to do a classic zombie scenario, you'll find all the props you need to stock a mall with shops, checkouts, ATMs, and escalators.
Loads of content in the bundle will be useful for games set in modern (or near future) urban settings: planters and benches that give cover and detail to open squares, land vehicles, a modular fast food joint and all the equipment you'd need to fit out a diner. If you want to push over into post-apocalyptic wargames like This Is Not a Test, there's a whole set of wrecked furniture and vehicles, radiation pools, and - for the Fallout Factions fans - there's a good selection of retro furniture, including a lead-lined fridge.
There's also a fleet of non-military sci-fi vehicles which will make great blocking terrain in games like Infinity (particularly if you mount the hovering one on flight stands), from ground-crawling cabs and fuel tankers, to seriously sized antigravity cargo transports. For the old heads, there's even a 'Mega Exploration Vehicle' that clearly inspired by the Land-Raider - no, not the tank from Warhammer 40k, the thing that Judge Dredd rides in the Cursed Earth arc.
I have a whole tub of traditionally-cast scenery details staring at me unpainted from the shelf, which I should probably get to rather than pick this up. But if my impulse control fails, I'll sharing the results of anything I print in the Wargamer Discord community - and if you get the bundle, I'd love to see your results.
