This page is for all those who see something in the pictures or at the shows we do and wonder where to get the same things for the local game club!
TECHCOMMANDER
In addition to our kit line we use
poker chips (the big 20 dollar set from Walmart in the metal case)
terrain is sculpted by Josh Potter, as well as some items by Game Fusion Studios, and stuff from the local hobby stores.
Life dials – we have one sculpted which we can release if there is demand for it, otherwise any life dial or D20 will do! If you want to make your own the art is under “TechCommander Downloads” on this blog!
SAILPOWER
In addition to our growing line of ships, Sailpower is designed to be compatible with any 15MM scale figures or ships. Over the years we have used the following 3rd party figures or models (often modified heavily) in our games:
USS Constitution by Revell models
HMS victory by Heller models
(You can use 1/96th and similar scale models to play by simplifying the construction, and cutting the bottom off with a saw.)
The black falcon, an old fish tank ornament (the Spanish castle is a fish tank ornament as well).
We have used the Thouroughbred Figures line 18gun brig to stand in for HMS Cruizer, the cutter to stand in as the Alert and the schooner to serve as the Fury(with masting from the scrap box) We also used their Brig Niagara for a while (we have since sculpted a somewhat larger version that is closer to the scale used on our bigger ships). All of these are excellent miniatures and highly recommended!
We have used 15MM minis by Peter Pig, Minifigs, Thouroughbred Figures as well as various model railroad figs repainted to fit.
Our islands are hand cut from wood or foam and populated with modified buildings from Miniature building authority and others.
Our palm trees are from an old Pressman pirate game as well as the local cake decorating store.
Our “Sea” is a 8X13 foot piece of marine carpet by Daystar (try Lowes or other home improvement stores). We also have used area rugs, and even the Gail force nine pirate playmats.
