Table Top Battles - Second set of Jigwar terrain boards started

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.

  1. 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?

  2. I 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

  3. Thanks 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.
