Our project was to create a modular terrain board to play games such as Warhammer and DnD on. The purpose of the board was to be easy to build on your own with inexpensive but high quality materials like Styrofoam for bases, painted sawdust for grass, dirt for dirt, and more so it is cheap to make for small clubs like we are. The original plan was to make one big board that wasn't modular and was seven feet long. We had to later change to a much smaller board around 3 feet. We also had to make it modular to have a board that can be used in different ways.
I've always wanted to be able to make terrain boards, but I've never had the time or resources to do it, so after this OI, I now have the skills to push myself and collaborate with others to achieve my goals. One example is we had a lot of tedious work making grass and gluing it to cut and painted blocks. We had to make the board as cheap as possible so it is easy to recreate, so we had to make sure to use cheap materials and easy ways of using them.
