That looks surprisingly good.

Green Tiger22 May 2015 2:18 a.m. PST

I like that – it is pleasingly juvenile

Looks good. Always rare to see height on a games set up. Well worked.

I ditto Ferb! Surprisingly good indeed!

IanKHemm22 May 2015 5:31 a.m. PST

Looks good. It would work well for WWII Western Desert too. Much better than the standard, uniform flat sand coloured tables often seen.

Looks good to me! : )

The lost city is a riot.I often wonder how I am not able to notice such small wonders.

Zeelow22 May 2015 6:18 a.m. PST

Very clever. You've a good eye for 'out-of-the-box stuff.'

raylev322 May 2015 8:48 a.m. PST

Actually, that looks really good.

magokiron22 May 2015 12:56 p.m. PST

Simple, yet very effective.

Thanks for sharing.

Look around aquarium shops it's amazing what you can find

Clays Russians22 May 2015 1:02 p.m. PST

But that's some good thinkng there

Mad Guru22 May 2015 11:09 p.m. PST

I echo all the positive comments above! An awesome set-up! Would also make a great table for biblical age Chariot Wars.

cooey2ph25 May 2015 9:02 p.m. PST

Thanks! I'm adding a river/lake soon and more pics with some skirmish games we're playing.

That may be quick, but it's not dirty – it's spotless. I bet the cleanup doesn't leave a single shred behind. Humph!

cool ideas – however does it move or is it weighted down?

cooey2ph25 Feb 2016 9:17 p.m. PST

The paper is taped on the table, various boxes etc with doubletape so it doesnt move

cooey2ph25 Feb 2016 9:17 p.m. PST

More on the improved version soon :)
