For this Friday’s offering we return to the place our 6mm building ranges started, an unnamed but substantial township in the heart of the desert.
Recent expansion has required the building of additional living space, and a new type of accommodation. Larger than many existing dwellings, these vaulted roof houses are constructed from the usual sand and resin mix, but with variations in design according to the needs of the dweller (or simply the whims of whoever built that example). You can either order one random building, or the set of four different variants.
We also have several commercial properties. The first is the Jewellery Store. A chance discovery by a prospector turned up substantial deposits of variously coloured agates in a nearby massif which turned out to be of gem quality. Most are exported off-world for both expensive fashion items and also for industrial uses – apparently they make excellent focussing crystals for laser weapons. A very small proportion remain on the planet to be incorporated into custom jewellery for the very well-heeled. Few can afford such luxuries, but many covet them – hence the store’s very solid security door.
This is the Vehicle Workshop – where the locals take their speeders, cyclos and other assorted means of transport for service and repair. Apparently they’re pretty reliable.
And finally, we have the Charging Station. Many things work on rechargeable internal power sources (including bigger items such as vehicles). If you think ahead you’ll recharge at home, but if you’re caught short of juice when you’re out and about, you can take it to a commercial charging station for a reasonably priced top-up.
