Battlefields in Miniature
Making realistic and effective terrain for Wargames
by Paul Davies
Like a good General a good warmer should have an eye for the ground. Just as nature plays an imported role in real battles it also does this on the tabletop.
When you spend a lot of time painting your miniatures you should also spend time on building good wargames terrain.
This book helps immensely to fulfill this task.
In the different Chapters everything you need to know about terrain building is explained.
The book starts with showing which different possibilities there are to create terrain like Terrain cloths, Terrain tiles, custom or sculpted terrain.
In the following chapters Davies explains how to build Rivers and Ponds Islands Cliffs and Hills, Trees, Walls, Fences and Screens, Hedges, Gates, Cultivated Fields, Roads, Bridges, Defense and Buildings.
The book is well worth reading and helps building terrain.
It is useful for beginners and old hands alike.
Highly recommended
