I'm getting pumped for this Kickstarter...awesome looking terrain!!! Good to have advance notice too, so we can ensure the cash is ready to go...

Thantos, could you kindly tell me what width the doors (Double, Single and Portcullis) are please?

Why, I jump on tables and dive into beds to see if they are metal or resin or plastic.

I hope the rolling boulder sits in place well on the table. One bump and it may end up rolling off the table and under the sofa. Maybe it could come with a cradling base, perhaps even with a peg hole. Also, my feeling is the encircling runes is a strong enough idea on its own. The the bordering ring lines only make the boulder look smaller, in my opinion. Maybe shrink the runes as well, with two parallel lines of runes if needed to show up on the table. Or not, they are only my impressions. -edit

As for the table, I'd want to be free to place figures on top. Keep the clutter separate so that they can be pegged in. If you keep the peg size standard with HQ pegs, we could even swap with the base set! Does that table cloth clip on? If so, that would be a great way to conceal peg holes while keeping it flat for combats. Just brainstorming, but if you wanted a bare table without visible peg holes, a clip on board piece with peg holes and one without might do the trick, as well. The tablecloth idea probably is more practical and just better, however. Nice design!

One piece I wouldn't mind seeing is a dais separate from the throne but intended for it. Surround it with 1" risers for figures. Perhaps the levels could stack so that other elements would place on top or below, like the plinth base. It also might be cool if it could fit with a display wall-piece as a backdrop.

Any plans for torture room accessories to go with the rack, like an iron maiden? Would a jail wall section be worthwhile--something with an iron-bar door?

Thanks Bouncing Orbs :) Yep, ill get onto providing the measurements for stuff soon. Always a crucial topic!

@KK: Staff love you im sure! :D

The boulder has a flat bottom, but year i hear you about rolling! Ill provide a tile it can be glued to if people want. Im also thinking about weighting the bottom of it like a weeble! :P

Clutter will be separete yep :D Probably wont do pegs though. Just a surface so pieces can be glued freely over it. There will be two larger tables, one with cloth the other without. If i split it, mould space would double and cost goes up unfortunately. Trying to keep it cheap as well as having lots of options is tricky! :(

Yep will do risers and 1" stairs too, so can add a raised element to rooms.
Im unsure about torture equipment. I was thinking it may be a bit dark... Will have to get feedback on that.
Jail sounds good.

And will be freestanding braziers also since walls may be lacking aside from our pillars and stairs.v

@ Thantos: What are you planning for the previously confirmed Spell Effect pieces? (just concepts not asking for images yet).

Also another vote for keeping all the accessories separate.

When you get closer to the KS make sure you get some pictures of the pieces alongside the HQ minis, and other fantasy figure ranges (Otherworld, Reaper, Mantic etc) as I think this KS will have an appeal very much wider than the HQ fraternity. Also against a section of HIrst Arts (being pretty much the universal standard) floor/wall pieces.

@sjeng: the ITAR'S pieces are superb aren't they.

I really like most of the pieces I've seen so far.

Waiting this KS, even if my wallet is already crying.

Best wishes with the project.
