About
The Basement of Death gaming group was formed around a common passion for Warhammer 40k and other gaming sometime in 2009-2010.
The Basement of Death (B.o.D.) name comes from the “affectionate” name my wife has for the 400+ sq. ft of gaming space I’ve created in my basement. Once a dreary unfinished basement, it is now the home of three, sometimes four, gaming tables and my 30+ year collection of 40K and other miniature and board games.
Over the years we have also added additional gaming spaces:
BoD East or the “Ty Bar” is the sports bar in Ty’s basement that also has a substantial board game library in addition to the three TVs and bar.
The BoD Brewhaus is Josh’s huge man cave space and the home of the B.o.D studio and the Dutchess. It also has two beers on tap and an extensive bar to fuel the “What are we drinking?” segment on Playin’ & Slayin’ .

Had a great time at GenCon 2014 with the Space Hulk Castobel Assault. Thanks for running a great game!
You’re welcome! We have a blast running it.
Is the brewhaus contruction complete? Love the podcasts, they have me laughing with memories every time I listen. Also thanks for all the comments in the podcasts about me, it’s nice being remember – even if john thinks I’m gone :).
Hey guys, just wanted to bring this Kickstarter to your attention.
Chibi, steampunk, underwater goodness.
Do you still sell the spaceship x terrain?
Sorry, no I sold all the stock I had at Adepticon. Looks like they do have it available from their website at pretty good prices: http://www.creativegamescapes.com
Hey thanks for the mention on the Table of Ultimate Gaming! We appreciate it! I am happy to do a follow-up with you guys to address any concerns about production and also just update your community as to what is going on in the world of TOUG. We have many machines for production and love to share more about that process. – Patrick http://www.tableOfUltimateGaming@gmail.com
Someone said you guys have some sort of rules for Zone Mortalis or Space Hulk or something.
was wondering where you got the space hulk mat from. Love the layout.
The mats we use under the Space Hulk are both from TableWar. The two patterns are Spaceship and the Underhive I believe.
Troy thanks for the reply, found the site and the Spaceship mat the under hive maybe called something different. Is there a place with anymore of your pictures of your game. For 6 months I have been printing the pieces for the Hulk, truly a labor of love. How big was your layout? Thanks again
John
The other mat pattern is “Industrial”. Our layout is 12’x6’ and you can see more pictures on our Instagram https://www.instagram.com/p/C4_eNcmOUcG/?igsh=MTg1eXkzcXBwMzdzaQ==
Troy, going to run one of your scenarios for a convention I’m running in April, the genestealer tokens and the 40K dice trays did you print those yourself and will you do anymore follow up on your last scenario? Didn’t see a graphic picture of it. Thanks really got motivated by your site. John
I think we got the dice trays on Etsy. The genestealer tokens are a remix of this STL https://mmf.io/o/345597. I haven’t made a graphic version of the new map yet but we are currently prepping for this year’s Adepticon so I’ll try to post any 2025 updates here.
Hi mate!
I saw you guys are running a homebrew Mastermold Co-op event in Adapticon and I would love to hear more about it and maybe get the Deets to run it locally
Keep an eye on the https://blog.basementofdeath.com/mcp/ page for more info coming soon!
