I saw this and I was annoyed by the fact that the gaming table had those recesses in it. It just feels like it's cheating or defeating the purpose of having a table that big, somehow.

Right.... i think brad could be talking a load of jumble.
I think the table looks awesome, its actually so well done. Love the way the table mimics a proper landscape rather than just a flat boring gaming table.
Love it.

WOW I clicked on the pic, was surprised it went bigger. I noticed the table even goes around the wall into then next room. LOL that is a huge gaming table.
Anyone know actually how big it is?

i've seen this board a couple years ago in the white dwarf, but it didn't look as big as it is in this picture!

All I can say is, makes me want to play some 40k on it - when does it come to Seattle?! :)
Seriously, looks great and cool idea. I think it's time miniature gaming benefited from a little cross-pollenation with other art/media forms. Cinema is the obvious one, but comics, video games, music, now even museums... yay!
Nice table, man. I like the verticals. Traditional wargaming tables for FOW, Napoleonics, etc. are so "realistic" that you don't get crazy things like giant buildings, huge bridges, fantasy waterfalls, ridiculous swiss-style castles into the sky, etc.

The table is pretty massive. I don't recall the exact specs, but it could easily host 10-12 games on the "wing areas". I got a chance to see it when it was in NYC. Very cool!

Billed as 29'x28' for the total size. I'm guessing that's the whole piece and not the actual playable surface. Still, I'd put it on the order of 16-20 normal tables.

Pretty cool. The recessed areas would be great for access, and you could always imagine that those area contain deep water, or mountainous impassable terrain anyway. Very nice.

Appreciate the size (having bought a table tennis table just for apoc at 9'x5'). However whilst I acknowledge the recesses as necessary to ge tto the miniatures, going from board to board would require you to channel all your miniatures through the killing zone in the middle - not so good. If the answer is 'don't go from board to board' then what is the point.

I love the board, love the recognition for table-top wargaming as an "acceptible" mainstream activity...
But I don't see it as "ART".
I followed the links to the guys page and I just don't "get" this modern art stuff... It all looked like boxes leaning against walls and other mundane stuff in mundane positions... The full size Abrams was "cool", but not what I consider "art".
Wow what an awesome gaming table. I wonder how big those games are in the pictures. This kind of thing is inspiring. Maybe this will give a battle bunker some ideas, as they are one of the few places that has the kind of space needed for a project like this.

Maybe I'm just not "hip" enough to "get it".
First fantasy, and now we are getting old news?
