Finished the Trench Raid board tonight. Well, nearly. Just got to add water into the shell holes... Then I'm done!

Looks very good Sean, what are you going to use for the water?

Looking forward to the video showing off the board.

Colonel Kilgore

Great work, Sean. I look forward to seeing it in the flesh in November.

Looks great Sean!
I bought the Gamette 5 figures with the idea of doing something like this, but if I remember correctly, the rules say one of the sides decide where the scenery will be located, and I could not get my head around how to do movable scenery that would fit the table I had in mind.

Leslie BT

Lovely board Sean, ready for your next games day.

Sean Clark

Matias,

I decided to fix the craters in place for the sake of building the board. If I change which side the attackers come from it changes slightly. And if I want a game where players have complete freedom I can always use a cloth.

Looking suitably messed up C1917 style. Really like the way you've don the barbed wire.

Sean Clark

Cheers Andy. I wanted to reflect the absolute mess that wire was, as opposed to just a few coils of wire. The constant repair, damage, extending, and shelling just ruend it into an absolute hell on earth. In places it was 20' thick and impossible to cross.

Leman (Andy)

Well you certainly succeeded in giving that impression. Excellent work, and totaly oppositr to the 1914 battlefields my chaps dash and gallop across.
