Oil / gas storage towers

Quick plonk down scenic. The towers are each built from 6 floor protectors (shown in picture 1) plus a cork protector on top and then 'runners' are just cut down section of plastic rod bought from a model shop.

Re: Rail station

Thanks Paul, the way I have gone about it is to create a few scenic tiles like the one above and then have rail sections (2 hexes long) in thin strips that form the main part of the track.

Re: Warband - Early Medieval / Dark Ages large skirmish rule

Re: Warband hex rule set

Thanks for the link. An interesting set and nicely presented. Looks very good for a face to face game, though the card play limits solitaire play.
