Strength and Honour Terrain

 

I'm working on some options for quick and cheap terrain for Strength and Honour, with the idea to get some games underway sooner rather than later. I have a 3' x 3' desert terrain cloth that I can use for the interim but I don't want to mark that with dots or squares and it's a bit small, so I need a more permanent solution. 

I've played around with cork floor tiles for terrain before and have some stashed away, so I'm going to try using them for modular terrain in a 3 x 4 format, giving an area of 12 x 16 75mm squares in terms of game size, although there's no real need to mark the grid out as the tiles make it pretty obvious which squares the units are occupying. 

I'll add some templates to go on top for hills, rough ground, villages and linear features like rivers, rather than making permanent features on the tiles themselves. The tiles will get a little texturing then spray painted and dry brushed, with some flock on top to match my unit bases and the arid Parthian landscape. I think this will do the job and has the advantage that they are easy to store and transport.
