I have a lot of thin cork tile leftover from a scraped road project. Any recommendation as to what terrain uses there are for this stuff? Thanks |

Not the cork I was talking about. I have the rolled up cork you get a Hobby Lobby. That Matakishi site, while neat, doesn't show anything with cork usage, at least what little clicking I did. |

I find they are great for making walls, amongst other things. This tall wall for a 20mm chateau was cut from cork:
While all the buildings and walls for this 28mm Afghanistan table were all made from cork tiles:
While these low walls for 20mm games were made exactly the same way:

I've used that for fields or rough terrain for DBA/HOTTs. I don't do anything to it as it looks like soil to me except put some flocking in rows to make growing crops. |

I've used it for ruins myself. It looks great with little effort. |
