How long is your longest piece of scenery that is a single unfoldable piece.
Never mind the width, what is the length?

About 12 inches.
I don't have the space to store big bits of scenery!

Most of mine is 12" too. Maybe 12" is the maximum practicable? Dave and Ben's Arnhem bridge might be longer?

I have a rubber ridge I bought from Magister Militum at the Phalanx show at least 15 years ago. It is 50cm long, steepish and with a couple of small quarries. Currently the centre piece of an 1866 battle, defended by Bavarians and assaulted by Prussians.

PS - the unpainted figures are now done. this was a planning stage photo.
Big one Andy. Is it the pre painted modelmaker(?) stuff from Australia?

The Arnhem bridge is 3ft, its in the garage loft, just in case it is needed again!!!

Not in 15mm but I have a 4ft long central spine (paper covered expanded polystyrene) for a chariot race in 54mm that I made for a public participation game in St Helier, Jersey. (Different part of the same story - Elizabeth Castle, where the event was held was only accessible by DUKW at the set-up time and whilst disembarking I fell between the DUKW and the jetty.)

My sections of railway track are around 2ft long.

Yes, from Magister Militum when they were a major attraction at shows.
Railway track and roads about 12" up to 18" long. I got burned a long time ago making impracticably long items for 25mm games. I do have a 25mm scratchbuilt castle that is 3 feet x 4 feet x 18 inches high but that is in 14 sections that only makes up in one particular configuration. Everything else I've made since is modular both in 25mm and 15mm scales.

Colin made the Gold Beach terrain for the D-Day-75 game in 2019. These were 4 x 4ft long sections (if I remember correctly). Quite a stunning set-piece!
