I'm just about out of room in the bin that I use to store my Haqqislam board. What sort of scenery am I missing? What should I purchase to fill in the holes? (Cat is not normally scenery)
A water feature or fountain, gives low cover, adds a zone of difficult terrain, and is usually fairly flat so fits in the box easily. Example: https://ttcombat.com/products/city-park-set?_pos=3&_sid=0cb02b5dd&_ss=r
Something to fill the edges, you currently have a massive band running around the edge of the board that has nothing. Maybe some small walls and barricades. the Star Wars Legion ones are great.
Yes, some small cover, what I usually call scatter. about enough to fill the upper floor of the bigger of the green buildings should be plenty. Parking meters, trash cans, vending machines, park benches, planter boxes, maybe even some civilian vehicles.
Yeah, some boxes, antennas or holoadds for the rooftops is missing imho. And, of course, more cats!!!
Sounds like the answer is more scatter. That much I can do. Any tips for terrain that nicely fills out the edges of the board?
Anything will do that you just need to place it there, shipping containers are going to be the quickest and easiest way to do so. The reason you want to do this is to break up the massive firelanes it causes, makes it so walking AD on isn't a horrifically bad idea, and also provides some horizontal cover in the dz so that a rambo piece with a HMG can't just run to the dz an start trivially picking everything off.
Haqqislam board, makes me think desert, makes me think water tanks. You could probably scratch build some out of old packaging, soda cans, or round snack tubes, maybe even toilet paper tubes, just put an end on them.
Sarissa Precision recently released some really well priced fountains, cheap postage too. https://sarissa-precision.com/products/fountain-set?_pos=1&_sid=1a5761f2f&_ss=r [rant]They'll be even cheaper if you wait until the next time something unbelievably stupid falls out of Johnson's accursed pie-hole and the pound tumbles again.[/rant]
