About this deal
Citadel Crusade Case (large) The Citadel Crusade Case reviewed is a fairly large army transport case.
You’ll free up more time to concentrate on games, painting or just showing off your miniatures collection. Here’s a quick summary: The Citadel Crusade Case for transporting your miniature army is a fantastic way for storing and traveling with your painted miniature collection.
Designed with a tough and sturdy outer shell, it guarantees protection on the most bumpy of journeys. Then you factor in the lower trays and you can add in some Dreadnoughts, Rhinos, or even some larger infantry.
Have a look at the images or check out the video in the tab to the right to to get a taste for just how life-changingly excellent these cases are – you won’t be able to work out how you lived without them. While I’m very happy with my purchase of the Crusade case (it appears to be a good value), I own a glue gun and a roll of duct tape. Get the case, have low-durability foam that requires periodic replacement, and make continuos money selling replacement “channel” foam.
I’ve fit 25 space marines, 20 terminators (with banners and halberds), 2 fully glued together dread knights (with greatswords! Although the foam is flexible, it doesn’t feel like it's going to break as you move the miniatures from the case to the battlefield and back again.
The gaps are cut into flexible zig-zag shapes so that they can bend around any weapons or stray limbs whilst holding them in place, and avoiding any breakages. The hinge in the back is reinforced with a metal pin (an upgrade from other cases that use plastic hinges that can break or warp over time). If you’re looking for a do-it-all army transport case that doesn’t require you to fiddle with foam bits and plucking open spaces for all your stuff, the Crusade Case (or its smaller siblings) may be what you’re looking for!
My initial concern that the compressed foam would damage or bend parts of my miniatures was unfounded after using this case for a few days. Rather than using the conventional pluck foam that has dominated the GW transport-foam market, these specialized cases use zig-zag foam. The pre-loved books are carefully cleaned and maintained offering a wide variety of general and specialist titles from children's to adults.
