What type of terrain do your 6mm sci-fi armies normally fight in? * grassland/green
* desert
* Martian desert/red
* lunar craters
etc. |

All of the above. Honestly we have a vast array of terrain and tend to change it up to keep things interesting and fresh. Have fun! |

All of the above plus urban and forest. |

Urban. Outposts. Very, very rough and inhospitable area – desert (including arctic ones), mountains, jungle, forest, craters, canyons/canals, volcanic, and so on – with a large cluster of buildings/machinery and often one or two smaller clusters. Occasionally a board-spanning logistic element – pipeline, conduit, orbital elevator, train track, etc. |

All and any ! Like in the old Stargate series, they'd be on planets of all types and even eras. Weird alien terrain and structures, Ancient, Gothic, etc., etc., … it's a big Universe out there. So I try to reflect it on my table … 🌌 |

I think your poll is going to need a category for "nothing typical -- we play in many different kinds of terrain" |

I agree with Legion 4 and Oberlindes Sol LIC. |

And yet, there's a depressing regularity to the "Middle Eastern village that totally isn't Mos Eisley" theme in a lot of 6mm sci-fi gaming. I'm not sure if it's because it's easy to make and can be essentially timeless, but there's a lot of them adobe-looking huts out there on gaming tables. |

I have some ME/desert structures from various model companies. I do like that look … |

And let's not forget the lovely Monorail system Brigade Models UK do that keeps selling out! I'll also add these chaps – dfaminiatures.com – Who have some breathtakingly nice 3d printed terrain and s STL files for sale both and even the (Currently under re-organisation ) Hardware Studios, who have a couple of overlays for using Chessex dice containers as buildings, and also have a few items on Shapeways as "print on demand" – link |

Vanguard Miniatures also sells from 4 manufacturers link
You may customize buildings with sets from GZG link
Good are also some of the buildings and ruins for WW2 that with some mods could be well used for sci-fi: Scotia Grendel may help here link and also H&R (though currently they are out of stock, fyi like too many of their products) link
