Tabletop For Odelltown

     Here are a couple of pics for the layout I will be using for the first battle.

     Although I enjoy looking at three dimensional terrain for things such as  ploughed fields and such, I don't like the way they make the figures get placed on the tabletop, and have opted for felt terrain pieces, instead.  This goes for the woods pieces as well, and when any units enter the woods, I will simply move the trees off the table, and return them when the units leave that area.

     The trees are actually the flowering buds of purple loosestrife plants, and then just glued to cardboard bases.  Not as nice as store bought trees, but certainly cheaper!

     The buildings are to represent Odelltown, which is the objective of the attacking Americans.

     I should have the final units painted in about three weeks, and can then begin the battle!
