I have not bought from them so I cannot vouch for their quality but,  Wargame-Model-Mods has lots of MDF terrain, mostly buildings and Zone Mortalis style boards. Their unique thing is that some kits come with LEDS and/or motors.

 

they are mentioned in my very first post. I have nothing from them so no quality references like blue forge.

Ya I noticed after I went back and really looked, I'm an idiot sometimes lol.

 

Well everybody is sometimes but not 100% of the time. :wink:

I'm painting up the forgotten city board tiles from Secret Weapon miniatures (its in the fist post).  Here are 4 of the 11 or so tiles I've done so far.

They're pretty simple to get looking pretty good - the tiles about are sprayed in a tan colour, the flagstones and ruins are drybrushed Ushabi Bone, then the whole thing is washed with a chestnut brown craftpaint.  I've since given the ruined stone pieces (so, not the flagstones, but the ruined walls, etc.) a drybrush of Flayed One before the wash, which helps them pop a bit more - but I don't think I did so for the tiles above.

 

Once I'm done the last 5 of the forgotten city tiles, I can post them here if there is interest, and then I have 16 Secret Weapon scrap yard tiles to do.

At least for the forgotten city tiles, the changing them up is mostly aesthetic - there isn't a lot of actual terrain features that would affect game play or the placement of other small terrain pieces.  Still, the modularity lets your battlefield at least look different for different games, which helps take away some of the "why are are our armies fighting here again" that you can get from fixed battlemats.

 

I think the modularity will be more important with the scrap yard tiles, as there are essentially baracades and terrain that could actually provide cover to infantry model, usually in the middle of the tiles - this could also make placing other terrain difficult, especially if said terrain is bigger than 6-8" in both depth and width.

I was playing a WWII game at 1:32 scale so i broke out a bunch of the old JR miniatures rubber roads and a group of buildings that were custom made for the stores large scale  "saving private ryan" table. it is lovely but a paint o move so we just used them on the game mat.

If there has to be something called an 'advantage' to having respiratory issues i guess it might be if you're a gamer you can use empty inhaler cans as induistrial terrain in games like 40k and necromunda.

Here's an example:

As a reference it's 2" tall including the nozzle.
