As the title implies im looking for a nice looking wargaming mat for age of sigmar.
Id like it to look like its a burnt land, Like after the world has ended. And id put some ruins on it.
Does anyone know of a nice mat that fits my description or do you have a cool idea of a mat/terrain setting for AoS?

In this Realms of Conflict, they are using a mat that looks pretty cool to me for AoS.

In the comments it says they bought a Frontline Gaming FAT Mat.

I saw this one in a battle report - looks _perfect_ for AoS:

You can't go wrong with either of those companies, I've tried out both and they're awesome

What kind of terrain would you use to dress that mat? Like collapsed Greek columns?

That's a very good idea! There's a poster on Dakka blogging his progress of making a board using columns like that for Arena Rex - see here:

The columns he's using are Wilton Grecian Columns (for wedding cakes) and super cheap. He's using these 7" ones, but they come in shorter sizes, too:

I really like that idea for a themed board, and what's more is it would be fairly inexpensive! Note that if you want to buy the Gamemat, they will remove the VAT from the total for US customers, making it much more affordable and covering most of the (otherwise expensive) shipping cost as a result (I think you have to select "payment on delivery" at checkout, and then they send you an invoice over email that excludes the VAT).

Oh man, great info on those columns thanks!

I just want to say I have a mat from gamemat.eu and the quality is stellar! I will be buying another soon... "Grasslands" which is pretty boring but I think it will have the most universal function.

I ordered this mat. http://www.gamemat.eu/6x4-g-mats/6x4-g-mat-fallen-earth.html

Im gonna make som cliffs and vulcanos maybe some burnt down ruins and realm gates to match it.
Its gonna represent the realm of fire.

Agreed. Great ideas from both of you on the Greek columns.
