Back in ancient times of lore, when Warhammer was Warhammer, the 4th edition of the boxed game came with two card stock terrain pieces; a cottage and a stone tower. I still have both of them and the cottage has probably been in more of my tabletop battles than any other piece of terrain.
The classic Warhammer cottage.
Lord of the Rings battle.
Continental Firing line to the side of the cottage.
Another LOTR battle.
Prince Rupert leads the War Poodle's own Regiment of Foot during the English Civil War.

Action in the Peninsular.
World War II British Paratroopers.
The Wild West.
The Doctor and Sherlock Holmes.
Colonial Action.
Lord Essex.
That cottage has soldiered on in large and small actions, deserved its own name.
ReplyDeleteIts funny I have tons of buildings in my collection but tend to use the same small selection all the time.
ReplyDeleteI know exactly what you mean. When I moved recently I thought to myself, when was the last time I used this?
DeleteI have some very similar to that one from the Blood bath at Orcs' Drift supplement for Warhammer 2nd Edition and I'm still using them. I think they were drawn by Dave Andrews.
ReplyDeleteMy hat is off to Dave Andrews. I have had that building since 1993.
DeleteNice to have a favourite piece of terrain that you can use in a variety of different settings!
ReplyDeleteIt definitely makes life (and gaming) easier!
DeleteI also still have a lot of old Warhammer cardboard buildings from the 80s and early 90s, and I still use them. VEry versatile for a lot of different periods and settings.
