scale... Gladius vessel? )

[Kein]

Hey everyone!

Getting back to 40k after a long break, and along finishing my Guardians of the Covenant 40k army, want "wierd"

With release of battlefleet gothic armada, and rumors about restart it's tabletop version, i decide to built one (or maybe more after) of SM vessels (to shelf, or, maybe, some boarding action game)

so, here is the question: anyone met something like this, maybe blueprints, or inside arnament diagrams?

For outer look will use 3d view from Armada game

Thanks!

The Gladius is about the size of the Sword class frigate IIRC, so I'd say it's about 1.6km long? I'm pretty sure that side-on line drawings in the BFG Armada book are all that was ever officially done.

40k ships are terribly large, so you may want to consider just a few decks, that's about all I know.

I would recommend playing boarding action games of Zone Mortalis. You could link the games in a narrative type style and have a great time.

thanks all for replies!

yeah... transfer founded size's of ships into game scale, and figured that smallest SM vessel (Hunter class Destroyer) will be 20 meters (65.62 ft) long :)) (Battle barge - amazing, almost 160 meters | 525 ft !) 

too big for starting alone atm :)

yes, after calculating sizes will look in that side. But, i think about 3D-space-hulk terrain, that found in the web :) for hulk itself, and boarding actions (with adding more wide rooms).

 

 

anyway, building whole ship or its part, will be thankful for pictures or schemes of ships interior, i guess someone here really a big fan of SM battleships, and have wide collection of theirs interior :) (maybe, i must wait for SH: Deathwing PC game, to see that myself :D)
