Warhammer 40k - Battlezone: Fronteris – Landing Pad
The Landing Pad is exactly the type of terrain that creates a "wow effect" the moment you set it down. You get a large, clear battlefield element that makes sense in scenarios, looks realistic, and most importantly, adds cover and verticality – the fastest way for a beginner to get a better game and a better-looking table.
What's in the set and how it looks on the table
This platform acts as a dominant centerpiece for the battlefield. Due to its height and distinct shape, it naturally attracts fights for positioning, unit maneuvers, and fire exchanges. If you're building a themed table, the Landing Pad immediately creates a narrative for the location.

Where the Landing Pad fits
It fits perfectly into industrial and Imperial maps, frontier worlds, space ports, and research bases. It is versatile: it can be a landing zone for reinforcements, an offloading ramp, a communication hub, or an improvised defensive position.
Why you want this on your table
- Instantly improves gameplay: more cover, more decision-making, less bare table.
- Dominant element for scenarios: fights for high ground and safe movement.
- Fast painting: just primer + metal + wash + drybrush and it looks great.
Who benefits the most
- Shooting armies: gain line-of-sight and angle control – height gives an advantage, but you still need to play smart.
- Melee armies: use the cover while approaching and create jump-off points for charges.
- Summary: The Landing Pad makes the game more interesting for both sides: shooting has positions, melee has cover and routes.

Recommended Paints and Tools (Quick & Good)
Quick start for beginners: just primer + a few colors for base, shadow, and details. Let's keep it simple.
Primer (Recommended)
Chaos Black (spray) or Mechanicus Standard Grey (spray)
Use: Dark/grey base for industrial terrain; quickly covers surfaces and emphasizes details during drybrushing.
Basic Colors (Minimum for “Battle Ready”)
Leadbelcher
Type: Base
Use: Main metallic base for structures and panels.
Ironbreaker
Type: Layer
Use: Fast drybrush on edges for metallic sheen and readability.
Nuln Oil
Type: Shade
Use: Recess shading: the terrain will look deeper and grittier instantly.
Stormhost Silver
Type: Layer
Use: Light highlight on the sharpest edges (optional, but creates a wow effect).
Typhus Corrosion / Ryza Rust (optional)
Type: Technical / Dry
Use: Quick rust and wear on edges, bolts, and joints – great for an industrial look.
Recommended Accessories (Optional)
Plastic Glue
Use: Best for clean bonding of plastic parts without excess glue around the joints.
Citadel M Dry / Large Drybrush
Use: Drybrushing is the fastest method to get terrain to a battle-ready look in no time.
How this changes the game (Beginner Tactics)
| Key Element | How it works |
|---|---|
| Cover and Safe Movement | Terrain gives you spots where units survive shooting. For a beginner, this is key: fewer losses, more options. |
| Vantage Points | From high ground, you control angles and threats better. Don't overdo it: a good position is also an attack magnet. |
| Scoring and Board Control | Board control means you dominate space and the opponent is afraid to enter. The Landing Pad creates a natural focal point. |
| Clear Corridors | Terrain placement creates routes for movement. This makes the game less random and more strategic. |
Beginner FAQ
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Do I have to paint terrain to play? | You don't. You can play right after assembly. However, paint makes a huge visual difference and it's really fast. |
| Is it just decoration, or does it have a gameplay purpose? | It does. Cover and vantage points significantly affect shooting, movement, and how objectives are played. |
| Is it suitable as a first terrain piece? | Yes. One larger terrain element often improves the game more than many small bits. |
| How fast can I paint it? | Basic: primer + metal + Nuln Oil + drybrush can easily be done in one afternoon. |
Next steps for a better battlefield
| What's next? | Why |
|---|---|
| Add more cover | More small ruins and barriers make the game more balanced and natural. |
| Create a themed table | With a few industrial elements, the battlefield will look like a real location in the 40K universe. |
Where to next?
| Sequence | Recommendation |
|---|---|
| More Battlezone/industrial terrain | To keep the table visually consistent and provide the right amount of cover. |
| Paints and Washes | The cheapest appearance upgrade: primer + metal + wash accounts for 80% of the result. |
| Gaming Mat | Instantly lifts the atmosphere and unifies the look of the table, even if you're just starting your terrain collection. |
