Making Simple and Awesome City Terrain

In this video I make a terrain board that will serve as a foundation for our urban medieval D&D campaign. It's a pretty simple build but gives awesome results and can be used for almost any encounter that takes place on gritty city streets. I hope you like it!

Turned out great. I thought the orange on the streets was going to be overpowering but you really tied it all together naturally.

[@MrGWillickers]

The Gentleman Bastard series is a great inspiration, especially Camora, for a multi-GM heist story. Super cool idea

[@KevinoftheCosmos]

Incredible. I want my town tiles to look exactly like this.

[@MrJhara]

those individual tiles got intense pretty quickly! I love the missing ones and the uneven feel you got in the end.

[@iamamamaman]

Great video - very simple. Have ordered some foamboard just for this.

[@planetsmashergames]

Love this. It looks really great and its a neat approach. I don't know if I'll have the patience to glue all the stones individually, but the effect is so good!

[@TabletopForge]

Its hard to do all at once, but break it up into small chunks when you get time and its not so bad. I usually put on a podcast or audiobook while I'm working on stuff like that.

Alternatively you can use tile grout to make your stones look mortared in rather than set in dirt. There is also the budget coffee and/or tea leaves plus binder option.

Wow. Color me impressed!
Coconut fiber....now I gotta go look for some of that!

[@thechaosshaman]

Looks great

[@SindySaalfeld]

You should play Mordheim with such a cool terrain.

[@TabletopForge]

I looked to Mordheim terrain for inspiration for my city terrain, good eye!

[@JohnWise-vg3zj]

This is awesome!

[@skynthiagurl4570]

Great build! So talented ❤

[@GCarterStokum]

any chance you have that .STL file for the tile roller floating around on the internet anywhere??
Very nice build!

[@streetmonk007]

Great video! Tell me more about the map.

[@TabletopForge]

One of our players likes to build settings and maps, and he wrote most of the backstory to the City of Camorra. Borrowed heavily from the Gentleman Bastards novels by Scott Lynch. Over 60 districts and regions crisscrossed by canals, ranging from the opulent Alcegrante to the squalid Cauldron. Currently ruled by the Doge Marcus di Geglio Nicovante.

Jajaja, has hecho un Dexter

[@chrisantzaras]

Very nice!!
What are the dimensions of the board?

[@TabletopForge]

I use 2ft by 2ft foam boards from Home Depot as the base. Something like this: www.homedepot.com/p/Project-Panels-Formular-1-in-x-2-ft-x-2-ft-Rigid-Foam-Board-Insulation-Sheathing-PP1/203553730

[@crapparc]

Wouldn't coffee grounds also work as grout?

[@TabletopForge]

I've never tried coffee grounds, but it might stain when adding moisture. It was nice that I could just wipe away the wet fiber and it wouldn't leave any color or residue.
