I want to do some miniatures. I would like micro armor.. I have very small space and I want to use a 2'x2' box that I can carry/move around. I need ready made small hexes, that I can purchase and change, simple rules. |

Brian: I have a small condo so gaming at home has to fit in a pretty small space. My solution was a "battlefield in a box" that I can slide under our sofa when not in use. Here is a picture of the box:
Here is the beginning of the tutorial for how I made it: link Even with terrain and dice, there is enough room for some small armies to keep in the box. |

The scenarios in the book use a hexfield 8 wide by 6 deep. LINK – link |

Pick up some mdf hexes from War Arsenal: warsen.al/collections/bases You can paint and terrain them as plain or fancy as you need. I'd look for screen shots of a Panzer Blitz game board and copy interesting terrain from these. |

Hunt around on ebay and see if you can come up with a used copy of CinC's Stalk-I game. |

Here is a picture of the box: Clever! At first, I was going to ask 'how did you get the pizza smell out of the box' … but I see in the write-up that it's an art supply box. Doug |

> Clever! At first, I was going to ask 'how did you get the pizza smell out of the box' You can buy empty pizza boxes online too (fairly cheap too), or most likely from your FLPP. (Friendly, Local, Pizza, Parlor). |
