What is BeamDown?

BeamDown is a revolutionary, browser-based terrain builder that helps users build custom 3D-printable wargaming terrain without requiring any 3D modeling skills or design experience. Users currate an asset library from our collection of almost 3,000 components.

It features a multitude of intuitive design tools to allow the user to easily build, export and print their own unique custom models. There are NO subscriptions or limits to how many STL files a user can export! See more information about BeamDown here.

Important Information:

This purchase is an asset bundle of components for BeamDown Terrain Designer. It will automatically be added to your BeamDown asset library next time you log into the platform - Please enter your associated email address at checkout (New BeamDown users will receive log-in details after purchase).

You cannot distribute, sell or modify any BeamDown STL files or exports - THEY ARE FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY (Please see terms & conditions).

What You Need to Know:

  • YOU BUILD THE TERRAIN - BeamDown purchases do not include physical products or pre-made downloadable files. Instead, BeamDown gives you the tools to create, customize, and export custom terrain STLs for your personal use.
  • ACCESSING BEAMDOWN - Log-in details will be emailed to you immediately after your first BeamDown purchase is completed. Existing users can log-in here. BeamDown accounts are licensed for use by a single individual. Login details may not be shared, and accounts must not be used on publicly accessible or shared computers such as kiosks or communal devices.
  • BASE SETS MAY BE REQUIRED - Some asset packs are designed to work with specific BEAMDOWN BASE SETS or BEAMDOWN EDITION CORE SETS. Please ensure you have purchased compatible / base sets if required. You can always log into BeamDown and check the Bundles Tab to see which purchases you already own and check the product description to see what's compatible. If you are unsure, please contact us.
  • BEAMDOWN SETS ARE DIFFERENT FROM STANDALONE STL SETS - Some BeamDown asset packs have the same names as our standalone STL sets (e.g. Grid City, Zectonium), but they are not the same product. The BeamDown Editions are custom builder kits designed to work within BeamDown to export compatible STL files to match our standalone STL core sets found on our website or to build you own custom version of these sets. They do not include the same pre-made STL files as the standalone sets. Each version is sold separately.
  • INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY – All BeamDown assets, exports, and STL files remain the intellectual property of Saucermen Studios. Users cannot create derivative works, remix, repackage, sell, share, distribute, include in other products / digital media projects, or claim ownership of any models or content generated or included with BeamDown under any circumstances. This ensures our creative work is protected while you enjoy personal use of the terrain for your tabletop gaming or 3D printing hobby. See our Full Terms & Conditions
  • SUPPORTS & PRINTABILITY – Because BeamDown allows customization of terrain, we cannot guarantee that all exports will be support-free. Some models may require supports, and in rare cases certain configuration combinations may produce minor mesh errors. To ensure the best results, we recommend checking your exports in a slicer or 3D software before printing.

BeamDown is an evolving ecosystem, shaped through community feedback and ongoing updates - you may experience bugs as new features and assets are added and updated.

If you have any questions about BeamDown, please join our Discord Community or email us directly.

    It is a good set.

  2. Liam S. (verified owner)

    Really good way to test, I upgraded to some other bundles after.

  3. Thomas S. (verified owner)

    Very clever piece of software with really easy control system.

    I had lots of fun building some scenery that will go with my upcoming campaign.

  4. Alan (verified owner)

    I’m hooked on this!

  5. Jack (verified owner)

    I have been to make my own buildings for the longest time and this ia a super slick program that lets me do exactly that with a interface that even I can use. Looks like the devs are very active in helping users and offering assistance

  6. Matthew L. (verified owner)

    Absolutely love this program! It’s so quick and easy to use, and I was pumping out STLs in no time. I love being able to choose my own arrangements, and it’s incredibly easy to update whenever I need to add more terrain to the board.

  7. Jason G (verified owner)

    This got me started and I love it! Best tabletop gaming discovery!

  8. Anonymous (verified owner)

    Great way to get started.

  9. David R. (verified owner)

    Great starter to see how the program works and get you hooked on how easily it is to use.

    Something everybody thought they needed for a good price. However there is some room for improvement:
    -turning pieces is a bit wonky with how they align
    -when buying you only see the price for the “basic” stuff which is VERY cheap, but the other sets are alot more expensive, which is not bad, but its something you discover after buying the intro
    -this one could be on me, but i dont see a scale of the grid, which makes me unsure of the actual size of what im making.
    -i might seem a bit harsh with these things, but i would buy it again if i had to, and i would advice anyone intrested in designing terrain to try it because its very beginner friendly

      Thanks for the review! We always welcome user feedback and are already working on improvements to the movement and snapping system, with an update planned for next week, so hopefully you’ll find the building experience even smoother.

      On pricing, we aim to make everything as clear as possible before purchase, with all BeamDown sets and bundles listed on our website (eg https://saucermenstudios.com.au/buy-beamdown). Some of the higher prices you may have seen are for bundles that combine multiple asset packs rather than the cheaper individual sets.

      For grid scaling, the grid size is shown in the corner of the builder, and we also include additional measurement tools in the Bits Box asset pack for more precise layout.

      Thanks again for your feedback, it helps us continue improving BeamDown.
