Made up of modular card tiles – designed to be interchangeable to vary your battlefields – and featuring push-fit ruins, Moon Base Klaisus is great for gamers looking for an easy way to make sure they’ve got a cool-looking place to play, wherever they are. The ruins themselves are designed to fit in with both the Sector Mechanicus and Sector Imperialis terrain, meaning if you do decide to build a more bespoke gaming board you’ll be off to a head start."

Review - Moon Base Klaisus miniature scenery set for Warhammer 40,000 Ed8 from Games Workshop
The Moon Base Klaisus set creates 168x102 cm (5’ 6” x 3' 4" inch) battlefield, while a typical Realm of Battle set creates a 183x122 cm (6'x4' feet) battlefield. The Realm of Battle tile size is 61x61cm (2'x2' feet).
The boards can be assembled in only one way, and from the looks I'd say you can't combine more sets into one big seamless gaming mat.
