My wargame group is starting a 15mm scale 1:1 minature ratio series of battles. These battles are between US,UK forces invading the island of "St, Ives" to liberate it from enemy forces. The island is in the caribbean and we are looking for cheap 15mm buildings(need alot) that fit at setting. We are gaming on a 6x10 table and are trying to represent on the gametable realistic looking terrain features. Any help is appreciated.

There are free to download Mexican/hot country buildings on the PP website (see mex rev)
Just print lot of them onto card or thick paper.

Can print your own, way down the site are free printable buildings, many modern though I went for 19th century.

Did search here before Paper Buildings, many from 10 years ago are not available but show jp in search, but some are sill.
Happy hunting

I've use the "Child's Guidance" buildings to get effect. They were made as toys in the 1960s. They are available routinely on Ebay. They are highly 'modular" and can be 'built in many ways depending on what you need. If this works, here is a link to an Ebay auction (not mine) for a reasonable price lot

Thanks for the help, these all look good. Should help us set up some nice size villages on the table.

Martin Goddard, it just so happens we are using Peter Pig minis for the US marines and the enemy forces. Various companies for UK troops.

PaperTerrain has Mediterranean buildings that would suit this. They are of a similar style with tile roofs Adobe buildings are better suited to dry climates.

Thank you for the info but that link is not working for me.

That should have been a direct link to their Mediterranean building page. Click on the PaperTerrain banner at the top, then store or paperterrain.com/store
