I'm opening a poll today to hear about something I'd like to know more about. The question is this: Where do your battles take place?
There's clearly a lot of answers possible to this, so I've included a large number of options (and you can tick more than one).
Firstly, are your battles mostly set in an urban context (ruins or otherwise), a rural context (perhaps forests and woodlands), a jungle location (perhaps infested with early tyranid organisms), or a deserted place (lifeless rock, icy plains, or sandy hot desert)?
Then, what about the planet itself? Is it a city planet, a desolate rocky world, red planet, ice planet, verdant green planet (etc.), or something else entirely? Perhaps it is a forge world, a death world, a shrine world, or an agri planet? Or is it a maiden world or crone world as the Eldar might look at it? What about a tomb world, a dead planet (stripped by the tyranids perhaps?), a strongly volcanically active world, a hive planet, a space marine chapter home planet, a daemon planet deep in the Eye of Terror, a feral planet, or otherwise a civilized planet of some type or other?
Or perhaps it is something not mentioned here or in the poll? If so, please leave a comment!
I'll leave this poll open for two weeks and see what you come up with.

Hey, what about deserts! I don't see desert on there. Boo Hiss Boo!
ReplyDeleteLOL. We play on a desert terrain with ruins and industrial complexes; the world is/was a mining operation for promethium.
At our FLGS we have a much larger variety of terrain. Usually ruins of some sort.
I was hoping "deserted context" would cover that :)
ReplyDeleteAt home I have urban ruins, jungle/woodland hills, desert, as well as a bunch of trenches that don't see much use.
ReplyDeleteAt the local store it's desert/canyons & ruins.
At the local club, there's a variety but primarily ruins and desert.
What a great variety of scenery you have access to sonsoftaurus!
ReplyDeleteI confess, I hadn't thought of trenches.
I thought you meant deserted and is "this place is deserted" i.e. not yet ruins....
ReplyDeleteI mostly use urban or industrial of some sort. Trenches are also commonplace in my battles.
ReplyDeleteWell, lately my battles have taken place on a strange world with grounds like an Asian area rug and rock formations that looks an awful lot like beanie babies. . . .
ReplyDeleteOrdinarily, ruined imperial gothic buildings.
I prefer a feudal world - so I can use my Mordheim ruins and spice them up a bit with some Mechanicum presence (like pipelines and tanks). Nothing says 40k like a mix of Middle Ages and industry...
