Unofficial Warhammer 40,000 Game Mode

The Colosseum is a unique 500 point format that we have been having a tonne of fun playing on our channel with and for our membership.

Each mission and deployment is exactly the same, but that doesn’t mean each game is!  The matches are incredibly challenging to play as each unit risked and potentially lost can make a big impact on the game outcome.

Battlefield and Terrain Set

This complete mat and terrain set will get you playing the popular King of the Colosseum format as seen on Play On Tabletop. The battlefield mat comes with pre-marked objectives and terrain layout making it fast to set up and get to playing.

FULL COLOUR: Frontline Gaming has produced the terrain and mat in full colour. No painting required. Just assemble it and it looks amazing on the tabletop and creates an immersive setting.

EASY TO BUILD: We have build the terrain set in around 2 hours numerous times. We are confident you can too. If not, you might be able to build even faster than we did.

All kits come unassembled!

This set comes with:

  • 4x Colosseum outer walls.
  • 8x Short Ruins
  • 1x Neoprene Battlefield mat

 You can get your own set at Frontline Gaming!

Note about Imperial and Chaos Knights. We are not game designers and this is an experimental and new format we are trying. We don’t know what impact having big stompy Knights in the Colosseum will have. We are considering an exception to the list building restrictions for Imperial or Chaos Knights.
