I'm looking for good examples of 20 mm ACW terrain. Some sites would be great.
I normally work in 28 mm, so I would like to see the difference with some examples.
I tried the google. but got back hits that included all scales and very few 20 mm sites.

Any info would be welcome. Thanks

Paper Terrain has some:

Imex and Italieri both have accessory sets.

You may also want to check out the "cut and assemble" books by
Edmund V. Gillon Jr. These are HO however.

Musket Miniatures and some other company used to make resin ACW buildings that were great. Try HO scale 1/87 scale and 1/72nd scale because buildings are often usable in more than one scale or listed in the wrong scale.

Check out model RR sites too, HO can work well with 20mm.

The Old Scenic Effects now Monday Night Productions has some great 15mm that works for 20mm.

For 19th century battles, full scale buildibgs can be a little too big

He's looking for examples of ACW terrain features in done in 20mm, not buildings.

A sunken road layout would be great, something along those lines……………….
