Except now that I have 2 new ideas - one a road/pass and the other a way of putting a bend in the ridge
You need a second ridge line so you can fight the valley in between, perfect for towton or a pseudo busaco though.

Amazing VB. I am utterly jealous.

That looks like an excellent set-up. Nice work and brilliant for a mega-huge 6mm game.

If I may make a suggestion, your boards look like insulating sheets or some other thick or condensed polystyrene to me. I have the same and I protected the edges of my boards with 50mm wide silver sealant tape. When the bords are together it can't be seen and, to a certain degree, stops your bords for moving about.

I coated the sides of the boards in PVA and sand Subs so they are still pretty robust and will give a good scrape/exfoliation if needed

I think that might be a euphemism.
