What happens when either you or your fellow players knock over terrain (trees, telephone poles, etc.) while wargaming? (a) I immediately set the terrain back up. (b) I remove the wobbly item from the table for the duration. (c) My terrain is firmly anchored to the table, so this never happens. (d) I avoid using any terrain that can fall over easily.

E) I attempt to replace it in a position disadvantageous to my opponent, and wind up hampering myself. |

F. There are those who move terrain out of the way so their troops get an advantage. Shoot, I was in an IRA game where guys moved the buildings so their Crossley tenders could fit in the alley. |

e) I put it back and then I remove the friend that knocks it over from the venue. |

I leave it there and claim it was an earthquake. |

Usually A but I try to not have terrain that falls over. |

A, but try to keep taller terrain away form the edge of the table if I can. I had a tree that got "belly" crushed during a convention game once. |

In re trees: remember "Ents" in the Hobbit? We have Ents. |

I tend not to use terrain that is easy to knock over, like tall trees, and usually set up buildings and other terrain with enough distance between them for players to put their hands in between. |

Can't remember the last time I had terrain topple over. I'm fairly careful about how I build and base it. We used to sometimes need to remove something for ease of access, and if the position was significant it was marked with chalk to be restored afterward. (Houses or bridges would be significant. Wooded areas rather than individual trees were important, so trees were decorative and could be moved at will.) |

Ten ridicule laden push ups for the offender. |

Always seen in the photos taken….. A)…. for the photo. |

(d). But (a) is my back-up plan. |
Oberlindes Sol LIC | 23 Feb 2017 6:34 p.m. PST |
I handle trees and woods like Robert Piepenbrink. |
peterx | 23 Feb 2017 7:17 p.m. PST |
A and then if I knock it down again, B. |

Just put it back together but most of my stuff is a lot wider than its tall, so it doesn't topple much. Get pushed around though, sure. |
