Description
Create a commanding presence on your tabletop with the Bunker with Platform, a multi-tiered fortification that takes your 28mm-scale wargames and role-playing sessions to new heights. Carefully 3D printed to order using eco-friendly PLA, this bunker embodies both practicality and immersive storytelling. Its compact footprint—approximately 150 mm wide × 140 mm deep × 140 mm high—ensures it slots effortlessly onto a range of battlefields, be they bustling sci-fi corridors, windswept desert outposts, or decaying urban sprawls.
Innovative Two-Section Design
One of the bunker’s standout qualities is its clip-based modular construction, which splits the model into two sections. This approach offers a simple yet robust method for quick assembly. The precision-fit clips secure the pieces together, giving you a stable bunker that endures even the most heated engagements. Should your tactical needs shift over time, you can detach or reorient the sections without fuss, reshaping the layout to best suit your scenarios.
Internal Ladders for Vertical Gameplay
A hallmark of this bunker design is its internal ladders, letting miniatures transition from the ground level to the top platform without stepping outside—a detail that adds dimension to your battles. Defenders can occupy the lower level, ready to respond to infiltration attempts, while sharpshooters or heavy gunners ascend above, capitalising on clear lines of sight for overwatch or area denial. This vertical integration encourages more dynamic movement strategies and fosters memorable moments of heroic last stands or cunning infiltration from below.
Two Moveable Artillery Guns
To fortify your outpost even further, the bunker comes outfitted with two movable artillery guns mounted at the front. These rotating, tiltable weapons let you angle your defences in all directions, reflecting the tension and reactivity of actual combat. Perhaps you need to concentrate fire on an approaching horde, or pivot one gun to the flank to prevent a side assault. With the guns’ mobility, you can update your strategy mid-game, adding rich layers of decision-making.
Sleek Aesthetic and Adaptability
From an immersive standpoint, this bunker shines for its practicality—every surface is sculpted with subtle sci-fi accents, from reinforced panel lines to air vents that imply futuristic technology at work. Although it’s especially suited to futuristic or post-apocalyptic settings, you could apply custom paint styles—like stone textures or camouflage—to blend it into various genres. Adding hazard stripes, faction logos, or weathering effects infuses the bunker with character and grounds it in the grim realities of war.
Seamless Integration
While it stands strong as a lone bastion, the Bunker with Platform also pairs effortlessly with other terrain pieces. Surround it with cargo crates, barricades, or walls to craft a fully fleshed out base. Position it near roads or corridors so that the bunker’s vantage can oversee crucial choke points. If your game setting uses modular terrain systems, the same clip-based approach can make linking the bunker to additional catwalks or barricade sections straightforward.
Potential Scenarios
- Outpost Defence: Set up the bunker at the heart of a fortified base. Attackers must neutralise the artillery guns to breach the settlement.
- Infiltration Mission: The internal ladders and sealed structure provide a perfect objective for stealthy units—can they sabotage the guns from within?
- Horde Survival: Defenders occupy the top platform, mowing down waves of hostile creatures.
- Narrative Campaign: Use the bunker as a recurring mission site—first as an allied command post, later seized by enemy forces, forcing your troops to reclaim it.
Painting and Finishing Tips
- Primer: Use a matt black or grey primer for a robust undercoat that accentuates the model’s mechanical lines.
- Base Coating: Metallic or earth-toned shades bring out the bunker’s industrial undertones. Vary your colour scheme for narrative flair—perhaps a deep red if it’s a Martian outpost, or olive drab for a militaristic vibe.
- Detailing: Highlight key surfaces with lighter tones or metallic paint to emphasise corners and raised edges.
- Weathering: Dry-brush or apply sponging techniques for rust or chipping paint.
- Flock and Debris: Scatter some tufts of grass or small rubble around the base for extra realism.
