I have now finished my first set of Jigwar terrain boards. They have been given a coat of gloss polyurethane varnish to protect the surface of the terrain board and then a coat of matt varnish to deaden the glossiness.
As can be seen from the images on my previous blog entries, these are finished in a stone/brown colour so that I can use them for TABLE TOP BATTLES set in the Sudan.
I have now begun work on the second set. These will be for naval battles, and will be painted in blue acrylic emulsion paint (again from Homebase), marked with 10 cm x 10 cm squares and gloss varnished. These terrain boards will then be given a coat of satin varnish to deaden the glossiness.

Your project has got me interested in getting the rules, but I'm having a bit of trouble locating where to get them. Any ideas?
ReplyDeleteI got my copy from Dave Ryan at Caliver Books. The relevant URL for the page about TABLE TOP BATTLES is http://www.caliverbooks.com/bookview.php?59a98600a7fc092d063c6ce07cfc5e43&id=13066
ReplyDeleteThanks Bob, I ordered a copy this evening. The gridded boards look interesting and I've been looking for something a little different. A system that can handle a wide range of periods plus air and naval sounds really fun to work with.
