Hi!
Jimbo wants the foam ones, so give me a count of all the cardboard ones with the plastic roofs.

Ok Give me some time to go thru it all. There are some in nearly every box. I believe I saw 3 sets of the foam buildings in my quick search. I will let you know once I have a few of them cleared out of the boxes.

I am interested in all of these (however if Tas wants some I think we can share) if you don't want them._________________ Jimbo

I like the foam building better. I like their look better and find it easy to attatch plastic card walls or other details to make them look even better.
I have a good amount of them.
Their one big draw-back if that you have to seal them with something other than spraypaint before you paint them.
Shalom,
Maksim-Smelchak.

I don't actually have any, but I am guessing that they will fit quite well with the Epic40K ruins and would be relatively easy to add detail to and to convert.
I never likes the SM card buildings (with plastic tops) as they lacked flexibility and were shiny!_________________ Jimbo

I have a set of the foam buildings, and added details to them, years ago. They look good with the E40K ruins. I also have all the SM1, SM2/TL and E40K structures, so I have a lot of options for the gaming board. And while we're talking buildings, the Gladiator site has a 15mm Aztec Temple, that looks like the W/M Lizardman terrain seen at G-Day UK, IIRC. And some neat Egyptian, Biblical structures plus others ... worth a look. I may buy a some ...

Just out of curiosity, I am going thru these boxes and finding a lot of weird "knights"
I have never seen these before.
One is more a walker (large imperial sentinal)
One is a giant set of tracks (tank like) with a torso
There are several othrs harder to describe. All of the mare 1 piece models
I could get some pictures if need be LMK

Hi!
They are old style Imperial knights chaosorc. Stormseer's link shows them quite nicely.

Hi!
The eldar ones are very sleek and "skinny" looking as compared to the bulkier imperial ones. Also eldar knights tend to have "feathered" helmets or plummed.
IF its a stallion style, its eldar. IF its long and tall, sorta lookinglike it has high heels, its eldar.
IF its turtle-like, has tracks or looks "wierd" its imperial.
I'll see if I can find the scan of eldar knights, unless Stormseer can post one.

Funny how we all like different aspects of the same terrain!
