Years ago I worked for a company making doors. This produced a lot of 2mm plywood offcuts that were... useful. However, when I original started using them for 5/6mm terrain boards they were different sizes. The idea now is to start putting together standardised boards.
So I've bought a load of A3 2mm MDF boards. I have sprayed some grey and glued the original boards on top. Hopefully, the height of the old boards won't affect things too much. I've also ordered a load of extra terrain pieces as well - should start arriving next week sometime.

The original boards are OK on my games table - but their uneven sizes are still obvious. |

Four boards with no additions. Using a grey base coat on the board depicts roads, etc, and means I can at least make them easily! |

At some time I'll be adding more fields, buildings, etc - the grey will also act as hard standing around buildings or car parks. |
I've already got a load of high rise buildings from
Empires at War - see the
Swarm Wars sequence. Most of my other current buildings, hedges and buildings are
Irregular, fields are flock, a lot of the walls are simply matchsticks.
There's an order in for some terrain from
Leven Miniatures. I've still to put in another order from Irregular - should do that tonight. When the stuff comes the 'new' terrain boards should be finished reasonably quickly.
Nice and realistic elements of terrain, well done!
