This building has been around for about 12 years. Like a lot of the buildings here, it was made with a masonite base, drybrushed Necromunda bulkheads and some sturdy card. Also, we had some empty cartridges around, and they made it onto the base as some sort of run down tank set. Don't shoot around them, it could be dangerous!
This is one of our larger intact buildings. It also uses masonite and the bulkheads, but this particular building has been with us for about 14 years. Over time it earned a base, and you can't see the styrofoam it was built around anymore like you could back in 1997. Every few years when I do a terrain review to fix the broken stuff, I try to add in a few more details. However, people keep snapping the lights off accidentally...
This particular building is also a decade old, again using spare bulkheads and masonite as a base. However, as you'll see in the pic below where all the buildings are arranged, the actual roof is a piece of the card terrain that originally came with the Necromunda boxed set way back!
Jerry Wargate made this piece way back in the day, circa 2000 A.D. or so. It also has a masonite base, but the foam was built so perfectly he just stuck these bulkheads on it and painted blood everywhere. It's a great ruin to take cover in or put a gun nest!
These buildings are medium to large size bases, and can form the bulk of a ruinous city with ease. We've used these buildings for so long, I'm kinda sentimentally attached to them. Even when we have awesome buildings like the Cities of Death buildings and the newer terrain kits, we just didn't have those back in the day.
Shame to get rid of them just because they are older. Every year when we fix things up, you can bet these bad boys will be on the table, for a quick fix adding flock or repairing structural damage. Then they'll be back on the battlefield, doing what they've done this entire time - giving us some familiar terrain to jockey about during our games!
