About this 3D model

Welcome to MechCraft, a series of interlocking hex blocks designed to be used as terrain for various game systems such as BattleTech.This set is the core of the MechCraft system, and provides the basic components needed to start printing your own maps. I also find these pieces make a nice presentation platform for miniatures on your shelf or display case.At the heart of the system is the "Riser", which come in various shapes and can be used to form hills, valleys, lakes, and other features.Secondly, there are "Caps". Caps are essentially short Risers intended to sit on the top layer. These give the terrain additional color and can be used to convey information like grass, water, snow, etc.The next component is "Rings" which sit on the outer lip of the caps, so a model can occupy the inner area, while the ring is used to denote some temporary characteristic of the tile such as fire, smoke, objectives, or vegetation.Finally, holding everything together are the "BasePlates", upon which everything else is built. With BasePlates, Risers, and Caps laid out in staggered brick-like pattern, very solid play tables can be created.Added as a bonus are "UnderRisers", which plug into the bottom of the BasePlates and can be used to prop some map sections up or create clean seams between maps of different elevations.Included are: RiserRiser2Riser3 LineRiser3 StaggerRiser Small TriangleRiser Medium TriangleRiser Large TriangleCapCap2Cap3 LineCap3 StaggerCap Small TriangleCap Medium TriangleCap Large TriangleRing-EmptyRing-FireRing-ForestHeavyRing-ForestLightRing-SmokeBasePlate 2x3BasePlate 4x3BasePlate 6x5UnderRiserUnderRiser H2UnderRiser H3 Mech figures in photos are not included and shown for scale purposes.
