Aldi scenery
This week Aldi have some simple birchwood buildings in as Christmas decorations. I got the pub as an experiment.
All the buildings come in the same size box so the church may be a smaller scale.
Anyway, here's the pub with a 28mm para for scale. It's a bit small which may bother some people, perfect for 20mm though. There are a couple of LED's inside for night actions. All this for £4.99.

If you put figures inside it, it looks like it would cast their shadows on the wall to pleasing effect.

Re: Aldi scenery
Change the bulb to red or green?
Re: Aldi scenery
If you want to cut down the 'see through' roof effect then a dark coloured interior paint or dark plastikard inner shell will reduced it significantly.

Re: Aldi scenery
Looks like there’s a larger church here:

Intriguing idea, night time operations in a completely dark room, just house lighting on the scenery and perhaps a head-mounted torch for the players so they can see how many 1’s they rolled?

I get lockdown, but I get up again.

A mate of mine and I tried that with modified Charles Grand "Battle"rules on his bedroom floor. Lacerated feet, broken terrain and terrain and tanks were the result.

We used to do night games, but using a blue light bulb. Just enough light to see by, but dark enough to lose troops in the gloom.levied troop wrote: ↑Thu Nov 29, 2018 11:07 am Looks like there’s a larger church here:

I can't find this stuff on the Aldi Aus website. Shitty website.
