Well in between painting Fuzzy Wuzzy Camels, Unarmored Dervish Cavalry, and Turbaned Dervish, I was able to build my next 2 terrain boards for Skalitz, see below.





Game is set for 19 Oct. will post AAR and pics after that.

Looking great!

Excellent work .

They look really great.

Loverly rolling terrain, and shiny rivers.

Good stuff

That battlefield is looking really good.

Superb

Very, very nice!

Looks very good indeed, compliments!

Cheers,

Looking very good indeed. I am assuming this is 1866 Skalitz (just in case some bizarre Teutonic cavalry battle also didn't occur there!).

Which rule set are you using? I have done this period with both Volley and Bayonet and also Black Powder. I am assuming you have all of Bruce Weigle's rule sets as references.

Like 'em.

Yes, it is for 1866, but I plan to use this for other periods also.

I do have Bruce's Rules for reference but we are using Bill Grays Age of Valor variant for Fire and Fury.  We play Fire and Fury for ACW and variants for Medieval and Napeleonic.  I do have Bill's Age of Eagles, but some in the group want a small scale version.  This helps from getting all the different rules from getting mixed up during a game.  We also play Battlefront WWII which is a great set of rules that for some reason does not get the spot light as some other rules do.  it really makes you play combined arms. 

I plan on a Russin Front game on this table in the future, it looks very steppe like with all the hills.  But I still have 2 more boards to build.

Those look great...well done
all the best

Nice looking terrain, Tom. I like the woods particularly. May I suggest that the railway needs an embankment as it curves round in front of Skalitz. It was quite a feature of the battlefield.

Ray

I haven't quite figured out how I want the embankments to look.  I want something that I can remove.  I thought about cork but I don't think it will work.  I think I will need to make specific railroad sections. 

Any suggestions would be grateful

Tom

You could try polystyrene - but you'd probably need a hot-wire cutter to shape it. A coating of plaster filler would strengthen it. But you are right, it's probably a case of making up specific sections of track for the purpose. That way you can add it as a unit without having to modify the whole board.
