Warsenal Review

I recently picked up an order from Warsenal, they specialize in terrain, markers, bases and templates for the game Infinity but have a few other items as well.

Here is a link to their site:

I had such a good experience in dealing with Warsenal that I wanted to make a post to recommend them to others in need of terrain or templates.

On my most recent order I got 2 buildings, 40 bases and a few measuring tools. These were sent in a large padded envelope and arrived without any damage. Shipping took about 2 weeks but I believe much of that was the package crossing the border from the US to Canada. Previous orders from Miniature Market that are shipped the following day take about a 10 days to arrive so there wasn't a great deal of extra wait time.

First up, the buildings:

The Pillboxes went together very easily with the instructions provided on their site. I would recommend them to anyone trying to do terrain on a budget as they are $20 USD for 2. If you buy the 2 pack you get 2 unique buildings as well which will help with a little variety on your table. I also really like that the roof and the door are removable.

And my pictures after assembly:


Next up, the bases: 

These were recommended to me by Tom at Mayacast. www.mayacast.com
They went together easily with super glue. They were then painted a boltgun metal color and drybrushed with a steel color. I airbrushed spots on the bases to look lit up. 


Here is the result with a couple of my Aleph Netrods. I think they turned out really well, they are also inexpensive as far as custom bases go. I really hope Warsenal comes out with some new base designs as well, I would love to get more variety for other armies I plan on painting.

Finally, the measuring stick:

It isn't actually a stick but it is very useful. It is 6x4x2 which sounds really odd but it awesome for 40k and Infinity. Most models move 6 or 4 inches in Infinity and 40k. Units of the same squad also have to be within a 2" coherency for your squads in Warhammer 40k. It cuts down a lot on the time it takes to move my soldiers around the table. Also its only $5 which is close to what you would pay for a tape measure at a hardware store. If you order from them, I would recommend tagging it on your purchase.

Overall I would give Warsenal a 10/10. Products are easy to use and look great. Only minor issue I had was with shipping time but that is to be expected with an international order so I can't blame them.

If you have any feedback or comments please leave them below.

Thanks for reading
