[QUOTE="not-so-newguy, post: 8552831, member: 6786140"] TL;DR Before i just needed to worry about books and papers, but now i have semi-fragile terrain to carry. Any advice on transporting your stuff to the game? I'm going to make some XPS tiles with scatter terrain for wilderness encounters as the group explores the Isle of Dread. We have a great place to play that has a large table, but I still need to transport my hours of work to the game every week. This includes walking the stuff a couple of blocks down a sidewalk with plenty of foot traffic. The point I'm trying to make here is that Durability is essential, or else all I am going to create is a pile of garbage in a month or two. Nobody needs that. I broke apart one of the flimsy linoleum tiles I bought with cardboard attached to the sticky side. I'm going to use these for bases of my scatter terrain. I bought a bunch of plastic palm trees and bushes to attach to the bases. Four xps foam boards (Roughly 1 foot square, 1/2 inch thick) will be used as the "ground level" for the encounters. I considered just using the table as ground level, but I wanted an excuse to use epoxy to create some water effects. I'll probably use the table as ground level with scatter terrain in the future.
