This is cardstock terrain for Elder Scrolls Call to Arms.

It is lovely stuff. It would be great for Rohan, but I wonder if it would be a big large, since the figures for CtA are larger than LotR figures. It may be a bit much for card terrain, but it looks great, and there is a lot.

They also released some ruins, which I thought were a great price until I realized were cardstock and clips.

It also looks great, but I have a lot of ruins.

It IS amazing for card stock (I consider it cardboard, due to its thickness)! I had to look twice, after I read that it was "card stock"…

Since they have pre-printed this, on really heavy cardboard (too thick for me to call it "card stock"), assembly would not be too difficult. The price is steep, due to the special cutting dies they had to have made, to cut them out. At first glance, it does not look like cardboard. It is really impressive.

As shown, with some lichen to dress it up, trees, etc., it is really impressive. Thanks for sharing. Cheers!

Definitely well beyond my skill set. But magnificent!

Jeez. That's really good.

I agree, this is heavy cardboard. "card stock" doesn't really describe it.

I don't believe this is past anyone's skill set to use (as opposed to make), because this isn't print and cut and fold and glue. I think this is just punch and assemble.

The ruins even have little stones you can strew on the ground. I don't think most ruin terrain pays enough attention to the ground.

Oh, this stuff is made by these guys:
battlesystems.co.uk

Those sets are there, and lots more. I'm going to browse some.

This also might mean they will be in scale with my figures, which are smaller than the Elder Scrolls ones.

The northern settlement by Battlesystems, as is the rest of their stuff that I own, is awesome. I have partaken in several of their kickstarters and Battlesystems is top notch. I got the northern settlement stuff off ebay and should be easy to find. The two buildings below are shown with a viktrix viking and a frostgrave barbarian for scale. Its easy to build, sturdy and looks good.

PS my wife loves building this stuff, call it a 3d puzzle and you're set.
