    Must have slipped my mind that it's your annual Birthday month. Happy Birthday.
    Nice score on those sets. I cut all of mine up for use because I have the book of these that GW released at the same time as Townscape. CityBlok is my favorite of these sort of sets and the booklet for it is really well done with stuff for 40k and Judge Dredd.

      My wife has a bit of a tradition where for every birthday she will hunt around charity shops, eBay, Vinted, and places like that looking for old games. She usually manages to unearth a few treasures. It's getting harder to find good bargains these days, though.

    What a coincidence! I was looking through 'The Book of Astronimican" - a supplement for 40k first edition TODAY. It contains a short campaign, 'Wolftime'. The last mission has Space Marines storming (if they had any success, that is) the palace of ork warboss. Wouldn't you know it - it uses the beautiful tiles you just showed us. XD

    Wow thanks for sharing this game . I’m not sure if it’s nostalgia or it’s because it’s where it all began for me but I love this time period too, when games workshop actually made games, unlike today I’m guessing that’s why they changed there name too warhammer, no game in that tile😂… I find GW now just that but too serious, think that’s why I like blood bowl it reminds of a different time, alit bit crazy and little but unhinged, less about the minis looking amazing and more about the games being fun.. but but maybe that’s just me.. thanks again for the video, always enjoy.

      Games Workshop don't lean into wackiness to the same degree these days, although sometimes I do see something that I think is very "old school." Like recently they released a ghoul judge whose wig was made of intestines. That seemed very much like something they would have done a long time ago!

    What a super video. Thanks to you and most importantly your wife. I got a fair few of these floor plans when my local GW was having a clear-out sale. They were in plastic bags. At the time I had no idea that might warriors existed although I had heard of terror in the dark because I did have AHQ, so I can only assume GW had too much of the stuff.

    Belated Happy Birthday, indeed what a great Gift for a Birthday (if you are old enough, which you/we are.. ;-) ) About 17 years ago I was able to get my hands on an original shrink-wrapped copy of Dungeons for Talisman (Price Tag says £ 9.99) for my Talisman 2nd Ed. Game for ~35 Euros .. Well, it made me buy another (open and used) copy because I don't had the heart to open it (till this day)..
    I know, this is way longer ago as your recent treasure, but to this day I do more and more appreciate this item, and I can comprehend the value of such a opportunity.. Such item are true relics to guys like us... :-) Thank you for sharing and I hope you enjoy it and keep it like a Dragon guards his treasure... ;-) Greetings from Austria!

    Looks like a great set, or sets rather. 👍
    And looking at the Artwork, I saw some of the Dungeon Floor Plans set that I own, which I suspect pre-dates this set by a few years.
    My set doesn't have any rooms, just sheets of grided floors, and tunnels, a lot more mine cart rails, although there is a boat, and dock set, as well as wooded areas. There are also clay tiled roof sheets which could be used to mask off any area in the "fog of war", so to speak.
    My set was never cut, but at the time was photocopied and cut into the required shapes and card mounted as required, which I eventually purposed into custom HQ room tiles for home-brew modules.
    I particularly liked making floor tiles that would cover multiple rooms which really changed the board, like creating exterior dungeon entry areas, or "Boss" rooms.

    • @AlwaysBoardNeverBoring
      @AlwaysBoardNeverBoring  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The boats, docks, and roofs is probably from Dungeon Floor Plans 3 and there was more mine card stuff in Dungeon Floor Plans 4. Those were 1983 and 1984 respectively, although they may have been reprinted at some point.

    Belated Happy Birthday, what a great gift!! I too turned 45 last month and this brings back so many fond memories! I remember the floor tiles being advertised in some of my first WD's though I never got them myself but they did inspire me to draw my own, sometimes for RPG games with friends but often just for the fun of it. I'd love to know who the artist was for these tiles, was there any mention in the packaging?

    • @AlwaysBoardNeverBoring

      A lot of this stuff was drawn by Dave Andrews. Artists are normally credited on the back of the boxes for the tiles, the painted miniatures, and the game design, and it's usually Dave Andrews, Tony Ackland, and Colin Dixon.

    I was born the same year than you (happy birthday 🎉 btw). And I wonder why so many hobbyists - not all - are roughly from the same generation. For me, the beginning was HQ in 90. That era really left its mark on adventure gaming. Is that why we still play or rediscover these games nowadays? In any case, while games have evolved very positively in recent years, I don't see they have the same impact on the younger generation.

    I don't suppose you'd be willing to share those scans with some oldhammer fans? I mean,it's not like GW is going to reprint them any time soon. I'll never understand how GW can be consumed with price gouging greed while at the same time leave money on the table so often. Seriously,how do you do that? They could easily offer these tiles as printable files they could charge a little for and it'd cost them nothing but bandwidth. Profit,happiness,and a nice low fee entry point for new players.
