Four Against Darkness: Actual Tiles, or why do I bother drawing stuff?


Following on from a post a couple of weeks ago, when I drew a load of ideas for boards to play Four Against Darkness with, I had a think and looked at some boards I already had and decided to do things differently.


All the boards here were made from a set of 3D boards I made a while back that proved to be too small to play a game on. I had mounted my miniatures on penny size bases and it took all the space up.



I had the idea of laying them alongside each other to make larger playing spaces and photocopying them on my home printer,



Then I laminated them and added the original doors.


The doors I had already made some while ago when I made the boards. Could do with some varnish sometime in the future.


The second half of the set all laid out.



So you could say all that drawing was a waste of time but I think it made me focus on solving the problem which I revisited again at home with more resources at hand. Least that's what I'm going to tell myself :-)


Will be using them to play on in Wales in the coming week, will try to take some pictures.

    1. Thanks Skully, they are rather flat but that's what's good about them I suppose, easy to transport 😀
