Many games involve interactive scenery placement, and rules generally abstract hills, i.e. they have a defined edge which needs to be clearly seen.<br /><br />doctorphalanxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11805618584243510174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2654358191889198506.post-60939865749548850372018-04-02T14:02:33.971+01:002018-04-02T14:02:33.971+01:00I have a similar scheme in the pipeline but for na...I have a similar scheme in the pipeline but for naval terrain, using cheap mdf squares from Poundland.

Light it is not, and things can't be put underneath it because it does not sit nicely on anything other than a flat surface.<br /><br />I am presently messing around with a large corkboard pinboard, but it already feels like I should have spent my money on figures or more rulebooks instead :-) Normhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05031444717952755557noreply@blogger.com
