I've got some pictures of the Mordheim boards we have been using. I think the boards look pretty nice. There wasn't a lot of skill involved here on my part, but it shows what can be done with minimal effort.

The fortified farm and cty boards are excellent.

They look great. Really like the swamp one the best.

NIce boards! When I get home, I'd like to play!

Thanks guys for all the kudos.

Raynman, I'm make sure we will get some games in. Wait till you see my greek board!

I love the swamp board. That's great. I know all the 'dock' elements are relatively easy to constuct (Glue, wood, and some paint), but plan it right, make a lot of them, and you make it look harder than it actually was. All of the added details just make the scene. Very cool!

Love the swamp and fortified farm boards.

Thanks again, and I'd love to take credit for making the docks, but I picked them up on clearance years ago. They were made by Lemax.

They have shown up in various New England fishing village adventures for Call of Cthulhu.

Quality boards indeed. Always fancied having enough scenery to make up a proper city board – never quite get there.

Also nicely puts me in the mood for the Carronade convention this weekend, as the hosts (Falkirk Wargames Club) are meant to be putting on a Moredheim Participation game.

cheers

All the boards look great. The swamp board strikes me as having just the right balance of looks and practicality. You could create a board like that with "built-in" terrain, resin water, and other features but the problem (like with all such terrain boards) would be storage. If I am correct, your swamp board looks like it's composed of modular terrain over a flat painted tabletop. This looks really effective, especially with the addition of the flocking and other ground cover sprinkled on to really blend everything together. Plus it as all the storage convenience of a modular set up. One could then even make use of the painted table top itself for other games/scales such as naval engagements.

A very nice and beautiful looking table!

I got it Margard. Very droll.
