Battle at the Water Testing Station

[Vytau]

Just a quick post with a single pic - last week my friend and I had a tough time getting through 6,000 points, so we scaled it back a bit:  5,000, two squads each, no upgrades or specializations. We got a lot farther, but we still couldn't finish the battle in two hours (though it was getting to a sort of spillover point - kills were starting to pile up, CAVs had moved into their best firing positions, and so on).  

 

Anyhow, only managed to snap a single pic at the beginning of deployment, and it's not great, but:  HILLS!  I took some time off from working on my dissertation to build six hills out of pink insulation foam. They dried just in time to have a battle! 

 

The river, if you're curious, is from a company called "Wargamers Terrain."  

 

I have no idea why my friend put a bus in the ruins.

I love the bus in the ruins so your friend deserves some kudos (as do you for the terrain)!  

 

When looking at terrain, I love little touches like that as they give the terrain itself a story rather than just being somewhere for your armies to fight.

Been watching some Fist of the North Star maybe?
