Hab Dome Bundle Offer - Preparing to Ship!

Stacks of IAF015 Hab Domes ready to box up and ship!
Wargame companies will tell you all kinds of 'news' but we typically stick just to hard news like releases and offers but sometimes things happen that make me smile so much that I like to share.  Last week such a thing occurred at The Ion Age and it was all to do with the Early Supporter Offers on the Hab Dome designed by Sam Croes.

Our first Early Supporter Offer was so successful that it went way beyond my own modest expectations and it proved the love that wargamers are starting to develop for our feisty little brand.  Customers from all over came in to get their hands on the Dome with its special price and free miniatures.  This included other brands like ourselves (thanks Mr Harold!).  Here you can see a photo of the stacks of domes all ready to be boxed up and shipped out of Scotland on Thursday this week.


You can read the full offer HERE and its still valid until 9am Thursday 17th GMT with all of its images of concept art and lovely painted versions.  Check it out.

De-Constructed Dome
As a side note I got an email from a loyal Ion Age customer Huggable as she is known asking about Hab Domes under construction or otherwise in a state of being un-built.  Sam Croes was so taken with this idea I gave it a go and the result is above.  It took a lot of effort and if there is interest in 'cratered' or 'peppered' domes then we will make them and mold them as it would be an immense effort for wargamers to do it themselves...we use top quality resin and its really hard!  Thanks Huggable...this one is in your package with your Dome pre-order, enjoy!

  2. That’s a pretty cool idea and it could be the start of a small Pre-Hab ruins or battle damaged set, after all not all battles are fought over pristine fortifications or battle grounds, this idea just shouts mini campaign setting to me....

    1. Thanks for your comment Zac. Certainly if interest is there, like we did for Retained Female Knights, we will do a selection of modded Hab Domes in the range. I like the idea of one peppered with Angis 12.5mm AP rounds.
