The only feedback I have is from my first order and assembly is that I broke quite a few pieces where panels notch in at. I needed to apply some force for this but it broke easily. Don't know, kind of a bummer.
Ian,
So sorry to hear about assembly problems. It is rare, but breaks can happen. Don't fret! With our Crystal Fortress Replacment Policy, you are covered. Please contact us and we will have new parts sent out ASAP. We take care of our loyal customers :)
I’ve been looking for supplies to make proxy tokens for Relic Knights since they’re out of print and some never got made. I’m used to 25mm and 50mm bases, but RK uses 80/50/40/30mm bases which were hard to find locally or very expensive and I needed a lot for all 8 factions. Stumbled upon Crystal Fortress and the bases were significantly cheaper than every other supplier and had the exact sizes I needed in reasonable denominations. Even with ordering extra bases I ended up paying 50% compared to my next preferred option (mdf bases). So glad I went with Crystal Fortress!
The bases are chunky 3mm thick and it was easy to just glue cardstock and paper printouts to the back with a glue stick to get very nice proxy tokens. The tokens have nice heft and are sturdy and feel like poker chips when holding a stack. Incidentally this makes them very easy to pick up and move around which is important for me as RK is a skirmish game and I was worried proxy tokens would be too thin or hard to pick up.
If I had ordered more I would sandwich a cutout between two bases for a nice chunky 6mm thick unit for the leaders of a cadre, but maybe another day.
Out of hundreds of bases I ordered the only ‘dud’ was one 80mm base that came without the film and it was a little scratched up, but still worked for my purposes.
The tokens are almost 100% true to size. They certainly match each other. I think they at most have under 0.5mm variance when comparing to the retail bases I was trying to proxy, which is suitable for me.
Unlike cabochons for jewelry making these have clear outlines (important for skirmish games) and store efficiently.
I haven’t played with them yet but just with handling with storage and crafting I’m not overly concerned with scratches or nicks.
Given how great these look and how easy it was to make the tokens I may consider using the extras to make custom tokens for other games.
Well, grease my gears and call me ecstatic—thank you for the wonderful review! Nothing makes Big Red happier than knowing our bases were just the secret weapon you needed for your Relic Knights, all while saving you a tidy 50%—bargain bells are ringing in the workshop! As for that one sneaky base without its film, looks like one of my drones had its head in the acrylic clouds. Next time you need some shiny bases for even shinier tokens, you know who to call. May all your skirmishes be epic and all your proxies be perfect!
Cheers,
Big Red ✨
