Portable Pike and Shot Battlefield

I was rummaging in the garden shed today when I found this old repurposed wall picture which I turned into a small desert board for 15mm skirmish games a few years ago. A quick measure to check the dimensions and I have an 11 x 9 grid square terrain board for Portable Pike and Shot, using 50mm squares to match my regimental bases (I considered 60mm squares but that would be too small, assuming a minimum of an 8 x 8 squared grid.

The board actually measures 55cm x 47cm, so there will be a 1cm strip down either side, assuming I deploy in landscape, so as to provide room on either flank. I've given it a quick respray in Humbrol Grass Green but will add a bit of dry brushing as well. The terrain features including roads, rivers, woodland, hills and so on, will be laid out on top for each game, as required. Job's a good'un!
