Title

Hexhog tabletops is excited to invite you to back for our first expansion, Formidable Fronts - Intricate and detailed modular hex designs for you to print and build futuristic battlefronts. This set expands on our original release, Hinterland Hills, which is made available again as part of this campaign in case you missed it, as the Core Set is *required* for these expansion designs.

Warm up your printers and prepare to build modular hill entrenchments or complete tables of grim futuristic battlefronts. This is a fully digital crowdfunding campaign and all files come ready for both FDM and resin printers.

Stand Alone Hills to Complete tabletops

Building modular stand-alone hills was the design inspiration of the Hexhog Tabletop System. With Formidable Fronts we are expanding the options to build and vary area terrain options to set on top of your tabletop or gaming mat. This makes it easy to start printing and build functional terrain. As you continue to print and grow your collection your options will grow too. Start with small stand alone hills, move to larger stand alone pieces, and when you are ready go for the complete tabletop build out.

Formidable Fronts expansion content

Formidable Fronts has over 50 individual detailed design components allowing you to build trenches, bunkers, and new hill structures when combined with the designs released in Hinterland Hills Core Set. Formidable Fronts is compatible with all previous releases.

Trench designs included Main core set

The following are the components in the Formidable Fronts Expansion for building trenches in your tabletop creations.

Trench Designs included Bunker designs included Bunker

The following are the components in the Formidable Fronts Expansion for building a small and large bunker in your tabletop creations.

Bunkder design included New hill edges and raiser

As part of this release we have added two new edge designs give greater flexibility when you create diverse modular hills. Additionally, we have a new riser component that can be interspersed with our original HT-AZ1 riser to reduce your print time in big builds.

We spend a lot of time showing off our total tables, but we always like to remind people about the great stand alone options that require much less piece and print time investment. Don't forget our build guides from our first campaign as great introductions of what you can print to get a few modular stand alone terrain options on the table and with the new edges you get even more variation.

Our new tall edges will create line-of-sight blocking hills from fewer parts and allow your hills to reach into the sky. The new transition edges ensure smooth compatibility from the new tall edges to the original low edges in the Hinterland Hills Core Set.

New Hill Sedge Riser

Hin

Calamitous Cliffs & Crags - Expansion provides designs to step up two levels in a single hex (~56mm) including table edge pieces. With this set the ability to gain elevation is doubles as you grow your tabletop creations upwards from the play surface.

Rambling Roads - Expansion provides stone roadway hex designs for your table needs. With both hexes that are flat and change elevation, you should be able to create many different roadways to take you on far and wide rambling adventures.

Hexhog Tabletops is excited to be partnering again with MyMiniFactory on our digital fulfillment.

Simple. Instant. Specialized. The MyMiniFactory Pledge Manager is designed for seamless STL file fulfillment. Once released, gain instant access to your pledge, enjoy upgrade options and even purchase additional add-ons as they’re released.

None of the hassle of 3rd party digital downloads. No fear of expiring links. Plus the opportunity to make a late pledge if life was too hectic to catch our Kickstarter before the funding deadline.

How it works.

  • Login to your MyMiniFactory account through the link emailed to you from MyMinifactory - or register through the private link.
  • Click on “My Library” from your profile.
  • Your pledges will be automatically and instantly accessible through the “Objects Shared with me” collection of your library.
  • You can view the campaign, upgrade your pledge or add on through the “Campaign” section of your library where our pledge manager will live.

We are frequently asked what to do if one doesn't have 3d printer? At this time we are not fulfilling any physical options, though we have had a some people purchase rights for physical delivery.

We strongly encourage that if you are into any sort of miniature hobbies that you think about getting the appropriate printer for you. Not for this campaign (but hey we won't stop you!) but strictly to take advantage of all the amazing designs for purchase and free that are available.

We can't recommend any specific printer but will say if you want to print mostly large terrain or items at a cheaper material cost looking into a FDM / extrusion printer. If you want to print smaller volume and high details, have the space, and can deal with resin clean up, look into a resin printer. Make sure you do your research but options keep getting more affordable every year. For note we print all our test pieces on a Prusa MK3 and a Elegoo Mars.
