 ===== Terrain Photos =====
+I used to use terrain from //Purbeck Terrain Systems//, but they seem to have vanished from the face of the web (or at least, their old website is not longer available). It looked nice, but it took up a lot of space so given my lack of wargaming time recently, I passed it on to someone else. I've replaced it with some [[http://www.kallistra.co.uk/]] terrain, which is far more compact.
-Most of the terrain I use is from
-[[http://purbeck-terrain-systems.co.uk|Purbeck Terrain]] - , which looks very nice
-and is quite flexible in how you can lay things out.
-It's not quite as flexible as a simple green cloth,
-and laying out stand-alone hills etc, but it looks
-a lot nicer.
 ==== A Larger Table ====
+I now use wallpapering tables for wargaming. These are about 180cm long, by about 60cm wide. They're relatively cheap, so I've bought 4 and stuck them along side each other, to give a 1.8m x 2.4m play area. The advantage is that extending it is easy by simply buying another table or two.
+Trees are from Last Valley, which do a nice range of realistic looking trees which are ideal for ~25mm wargaming.
