That's awesome! Love the magnetic addition.

That!
Wish I thought of that, very cool. The force is strong with one
Stable bottems that disconnect for easy transport. Excellent job.
Pretty cool. How'd you make the asteroids?
This is very cool, since it retains the original asteroid shapes on the board for determining movement and combat resolution. First 3D system I've seen that does that, and bonus for breaking down so easily. Kudos!!!
Thanks!

I use plasticcard and GW-flightstands for the bases. The magnetic solution is a combination of grommets and greenstuff. The asteroids are made of
aluminum foil
balls, which are (de)formed by different tools. After that a mixture of wood glue, sand & water finished the asteroids.

(at this time without magnet). Sorry, my English is very bad
Your English is good! Better than that of many English people I know
Sehr gut! Fein asteroiden
Aluminum Foil makes a great aluminum asteroid! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allende_meteorite They are very easy to make and hold shape pretty well, are light weight and if too bent up can be replaced with a trip to Wal Mart or the local stop and rob. I spayed mine black and dry brushed shades of gray.
