Nick speaking,
I have been looking at getting the Aegis Defence Line for quite some time now, but to be honest, I am not a fan of the GW model, mainly because three of my four armies are Xenos, and it just doesn't seem right to have an Imperial Defence Line for them. I also have a Necron themed gaming board with Necron terrain, so it sort of made sense for me to have a Necron based Defence Line. At least then, if my Nids were using it for example, it wouldn't look odd as the rest of the terrain would be Necron based as well.
Not so long ago I spotted a very cool looking 'Cyborg' Defence Line made out of laser cut card on a Blog called Leave no mini unpainted, where Neal, the owner of the Blog has designed and made a few things for wargaming with his card cutting laser machine. He is now selling these items on his new website called Laser Cut Card, which is where I purchased his Cyborg Defence Line.
Neal is readily expanding the range of items he does and has some fantastic pieces available, so please go and check out both his Blog and Website to see what he is up to. Right, so onto my received parcel, which I received in a very timely manner, and was really well packaged...
Not really that much to see, it's basically some sheets of card that have been cut into the various shapes needed to make the Defence Line. All the cuts are right the way through, except for one small section on each piece which is still attached to keep everything in place...
Now all I have to do is cut all the pieces out and start building it, I will post again about this when I have built it with a more in depth review of the product, including the gun emplacement sections.

The finished wall looks great, but it looks like quite a bit of work to put it together. Hopefully if I'm proved wrong by your later review I'll definitely be looking into getting one of these.
ReplyDeleteThanks, the review will be up soon ;D
