So while unboxing I realized that I almost have about half of the terrain as miniatures (barrels, bushes and tables). Was thinking it might be fun to get everything 3D, minis the rivers.

Has anyone tried/ thought of this?

has anyone done this in other games? I did it in imperial assault and I felt like it added to the game.

I'm planning on doing it. I have terrain supplies from making stuff for Legion. The small size of the items in this game will make it a piece of cake to make most of the stuff in the box.

This guy does it on the Battle Map in his YT playthrough. Looks very nice.

Spoilers obvs:

Thanks for the share, only glimpsed a few scenes as to try and not spoil anything but the 3D terrain does look cool. I wonder where he got those walls from.

Here is a river but i'm sure you could find something smaller.

Those campfires are great!

Care to link where you got those?

Found this his video on making stone walls that I might use

Those finished walls are astonishingly good.

Yeah they seemed really high quality to me, and seem easy to make.

We really need sub forums here

Here is nice terrain!

Would love to do this but the wife wasn't real happy with a $100 game to begin with and everything I've seen so far is pretty expensive.

Thanks to all the people that posted helpful links.

I have just finished painting the miniatures and made the foam insert and myself and my son think the game is really good. The miniatures are nicely detailed and good fun to paint and the app is good . My main disappointment is that I think FFG should have included 3D plastic terrain in the core set. This game retails in Australia for around $140 AUD, so it's a pretty expensive game to buy and it would have been nice to get some 3D terrain in the box. They could then release future terrain expansion packs (and let's be honest, most of us would buy them along with any other expansions).

If anyone takes the time and effort to paint the minis it because they want their game to look as good as possible and to increase the player immersion, but the cardboard tokens just look a bit cheap and break the immersion when looking at the game on the table (see photo). I have started making boulders and will do the walls etc, which I enjoy doing but I think FFG missed a commercial opportunity with not having official FFG terrain. It also takes me longer to get the game to the table as I want it to look as good as possible as I'm a big fan of LotR. It would be be nice to know from FFG if they have any plans for 3D terrain or why they went with cardboard terrain tokens in the first place.
