Message: <blockquote data-quote="CastTiltowait" data-source="post: 4357589" data-attributes="member: 47642">An alternative for sticking things down:  Post-It Glue sticks.  I do a lot of stuff with cardstock terrain (think really heavy paper folded to make 3D buildings, etc.).  They've got little props, things like chairs, tables, bookshelves, etc. that are easily knocked aside when people are moving their figs.  I rub this stuff on the bottom, however, and they hold up to any casual bumping.  I can still pick them up easily, no muss, no fuss.I've posted about this company elsewhere, but I'll repeat the gist for those who are interested.  The cardstock terrain I use comes from a company called <a href="http://www.worldworksgames.com/store/" target="_blank">WorldWork Games</a> that sells folders of .pdf files so you can print out as little or as much of the terrain you want, and it's modular so you can build your encounter as you like.  Most of their stuff is designed for doing 3D buildings, etc, but they've got one set called <a href="http://www.worldworksgames.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=4&products_id=103" target="_blank">DungeonLinx 2.5D</a> that's for doing up dungeons with tiles (and the occasional simple 3D prop like doors and a dragon).  If you want an 800' corridor, go ahead, print out that much, once you've spent the $17 for the files, the only real cost is ink from your printer (or your work printer<img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />), paper, and if you want to, glue to stick it to some hard backing like foamcore/matboard/cereal box cardboard.  [sblock]<img src="http://www.worldworksgames.com/store/products/dlinx/dlxlotgb1.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" /><img src="http://www.worldworksgames.com/store/products/dlinx/dlxlotgs2.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" /><img src="http://www.worldworksgames.com/store/products/dlinx/dlxlotgs3.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" />[/sblock]Most of their sets, however, have ground tiles, and for those of you looking for good outdoor stuff, they've a set called <a href="http://www.worldworksgames.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=4&products_id=260" target="_blank">ExteriorWorks:  Hinterland</a> that has a bunch of grass, road, and river "tiles"   Even if you don't do any of the 3D stuff (hills, cliffs, bushes, and trees you can put figs in!), you could easily cover a 30x40 outdoor scene with high resolution (300 dpi) good looking terrain.  The time investment is only cutting off the margin from the paper and the drying time for whatever you use to glue the stuff down to any backing.
