[@BroadswordWargaming]

Hey, yeah, I'd have liked them deeper, but actually quite like it for this as space marines are meant to be pretty big. I didn't make the base boards with trenches in mind, think I mentioned that. I would have done something different with the wooden boarder too, as that did get in the way. 😀

[@eastoforion]

great looking board, I specially appreciated the things you would do differently section!

[@sirrathersplendid4825]

Straight lines are a bit of a no-no in trench design, as the blast from an explosion will travel long the trench; also any enemy getting into the system can produce devastating fire by firing down the trench. For this reason all trenches were made in a series of zig-zags.

An easier method for coloring wood is to use a marker. Use a light gray or brown marker and it will look like wood set out in the weather.

[@BroadswordWargaming]

That's a great idea! Ill give it a go. As it turned out, the soil and grout got soaked up by the wood, so it was mostly a waste of time haha

[@tacticalbutter4574]

Love the kill team board

[@BroadswordWargaming]

Thanks so much! I had good fun making this one too 😀

[@russwarhammergateway152]

Great project and video! Tip: For more realistic timber texture on the coffee stirrers, I find using a sharp (not used much) hacksaw/metal-saw blade is best as you get really fine grooves on the wood and they come up really well during washing and dry brushing. Any sharp saw blade will do as you pass over the wood multiple times but the hacksaw blade is the most readily available and finest.

[@totaltrashmammal7575]

Love the board looks like it could fit both 40k and flames of war (ww2) minature game

[@BroadswordWargaming]

I'm planning some killteam stuff and I might do a small bolt action skirmish on it, could be fun!

[@fabricatorgeneralunit8726]

To make trenches more realistic you should make them zigzag to stop enemy troops from being able to shoot straight down them also you could add some bunkers similar to the ones in WWII

[@BroadswordWargaming]

Yes, that would look good. This isn't a very big board (it's kill team sized(, so I didn't have the room for zig zagging trenches without clogging it up too much. I will be doing this on a larger board, so lots of zigzags and some weapons bunkers and stuff would look awesome. 😁

Yeah, I felt that there wasn't really enough room to put too much zig zaginess onto this without overcrowding it or filling the board. It's only 30x22, so it's relatively small (kill team sized). I will come back to the trench style board, on a bigger piece. 😀

Just an observation on the aesthetic side of things. For trenches I would have gone with barbed wire rather than tank traps, which as you see block line of sight. Pretty good build all the same.

I mean, it's being used for killteam really and those boards aren't very big. You don't have room for 90 degree turns and bunkers without over crowding the board.
