Not great, but it has potential.

Thanks for posting this. We have a news item submitted which I expect will run next week.

The idea behind Terra-Blocks is to provide a flexible, robust, easily stored, multi-genre affordable system.

The system is supplied pre-painted. We have a starter set that covers 300mm x 300mm and costs £25.00 GBP and a deluxe starter that covers 300mm x 600mm that costs £45.00 GBP Starter set takes under 25 minutes to assemble and have ready for play and stacks up in a 130mm cubed area for storage.

We have deliberately left the detail off to make it suitable for multi-genre use. With a little imagination it can be a dungeon, a sewer, a warehouse, a temple, an office, the inside of a star ship etc. The plain finish also enables us to offer a cheap basic product.

We see this as a strategic product and have a long release schedule of extra pieces that will add the detail (if you want it), this will include random and block stone walls, a wide range of glazed window units, opening doors and double doors, furniture etc.

We have a photo gallery at wargamesbuildings.co.uk/Terra-Blocks/Terra-Block-Gallery

p.s. The second and third photos in original post are of the £25.00 GBP starter set, which includes two opening doors.

I have just added the system for dealing with customer requests for new 'Terra-Block' pieces to our web site.

The idea is that in a similar way to Wargames Factory and Eureka, you can request a new piece to be made as part of the Terra-Block range, do a bit of lobbying around your gaming mates to see if any one else would like it. When we get 10 pre-ordered, we will get it made and shipped out to you.

The form for requesting new pieces is available from : wargamesbuildings.co.uk/Terra-Blocks

Looking forward to making some of your requests!

I've had a number of emails asking for some photos of 15mm and 20mm miniatures on the Terra-Block terrain.

I've added some photos of both to the Terra-Block gallery at : wargamesbuildings.co.uk/Terra-Blocks/Terra-Block-Gallery

Chris Abbey27 Aug 2014 9:21 a.m. PST

I've had a number of customer requests for doors and windows, so this is what I am working on for next release.

Lots more photos in Terra Block Gallery!

Grid or No Grid?


This is a Loading Bay for Terra-Blocks range. I've had a lot of requests for pieces with wooden flooring. I like to be able to see a 1" / 25mm grid on floors so I don't need to be using a tape-measure inside buildings, however it does detract a bit from 'realism' of model. If you have an opinion, could you leave a comment for me at
facebook.com/sally4thgames

Many thanks.

Thanks for those that commented on the Grid or No Grid issue, since the majority favored no grid, that is what we have gone for.


Terra-Block Warehouse release is available now and consists of loading bay, wooden platform, wooden ramp, wooden floor tiles in three sizes and wooden packing crates.

Last weekend we used Terra-Blocks to represent a 1930's Bar for a game of Vice Alley.

We have a photo report of the game here. wargamesbuildings.co.uk/Hobby-Pages/Pulp-Alley-28mm-Pulp-Adventure-Gaming

Watch this space for these extra Terra-Block pieces to be released :)

We have just added a video that covers the contents of the £25.00 GBP starter set.

This week, Sally 4th has added 8 additional pieces to their multi-purpose, multi-genre Terra-Block terrain range. The pieces added include futuristic metal single and double doors, platform level single and double door openings and stone tile finished ramps and platforms. All of the pieces are interchangeable with the rest of the Terra-Block range so wooden doors can be removed from door openings and swapped out with metal ones to achieve a different look.
The ramps and doors are particularly suitable for representing contemporary, near future or science fiction industrial or storage facilities.
