Description
Wargamers have moved on from flat, featureless wargame tables that more closely resemble bowling greens than battlefields. Although there is an number of suppliers of realistic terrain, buildings and other features, many wargamers want to make their own, and this book shows you how. The techniques shown in this book will allow even a newcomer to the hobby to design and create realistic, robust and useable terrain features. The book includes a wealth of different approaches, novel uses for everyday materials and everything the wargamer will need to scratch-build or to make best use of commercial terrian products.
