The fish tank foliage is awesome for jungle terrain.

Cat litter…scoopable goes into heavier ground mixes. Clay becomes rocks on terrain. I think I have four different brands in my terrain stash.

Cork bark chunks in the lizard/snake section of the store. Perfect material for making realistic rocks formations and cliff terrain.

I've considered used black aquarium sand for basing. I have a bucket of it in the garage but I'd have to make sure to take the multitude of snail shells out!

Not so useful for Napoleonic games, unless you're in Egypt. However lots of very useful stuff for making jungles .
