Hello!

I'm trying to spruce up my board and decided to go for a jungle theme. I hate playing in ruins all the time, so decided I'll try and create an outpost and base everything around that.

The idea came from two bastion sets I'd mashed together along time ago but never finished and a Sky Shield landing pad I have lying around: an outpost built into the side of a mountain, with a waterfall on the other side of it. Not only would this look awesome but it would provide good LOS blocking terrain. So here goes nothing:

I arranged the bastions together so that the back will be the mountain. The skyshield landing pad will sit on top of the top floor.


I bought a 12" square block of Polystyrene off Ebay for the mountain and have been hacking away at it. I found an old lid and decided it could make a good gun emplacement on the top.



The Skyshield landing pad is detachable as is the bastion, they simply slot in. I need to think about how the waterfall is going to work and then start hacking away at the flat surfaces to get that mountain look.
