That would also make a damn fine isloated farm house for a Horror Survival game!!!

Although it was built for the wild west, I have also considered the other gaming possibilities:

Fighting off the zombie hordes (as suggested above).
A gangster hideout, close to the Canadian border (Untouchable?  :wink: )
An upcountry homestead, resting between the sapping journeys into the heart of darkness.
Any number of Pulp scenarios.

My terrain collection is too big as it is.  The more periods a single building can be used in, the better.  :mrgreen:

Excellent work Overlord.

If anyone has friends or relations in the States ask them for some of their winter treewrap. There is a brand name but it escapes at the moment though I think Herb Gundt of HG Walls mentioned it in a Wargames Illustrated article not so long ago.

The treewrap has a texture that makes it look like the split shingles used in those days.
