"Cites of Death" Reloaded - Part III

The board is now 85% complete, with just a few details and two or three buildings still missing. Overall, I am very happy with the result, and the last games on this board were really atmospheric. 

I don't know about you, but I'm a little disappointed. Why? It has never been so easy to create interesting, varied terrain. Whether using 3D printing, laser-cut terrain, plastic terrain kits, and so on. Never before have there been so many different sources of information and such good tools available at the same time.

And yet, many gaming tables have never looked so dreary and boring. Thanks to gaming mats and the same old L-shaped terrain. That's really sad.

  1. That looks fantastic! Really nice work. It reminds me of the best elements of Cities of Death and the really old scratch-built terrain in 3rd Ed 40k.

    1. Thank you very much, and exactly! In the past, fulfilling this dream with GW kits would have been far too expensive for me. However, thanks to 3D printing, I was able to do everything quickly and cheaply.

  2. Wow, these are so awesome! I totally concur, I cannot stand those soulless, flat boards. You really got it right -and showed the way to do it properly!

    1. Thank you very much! Among other things, I am now planning a few bridges or high walkways. We shall see. In any case, a few more buildings won't hurt for variety's sake.
