O Gauge Railway Models for 28mm Wargames
« on: 07 June 2020, 02:07:07 PM »






https://yarkshiregamer.blogspot.com/2020/06/o-gauge-model-buildings-for-modern-28mm.html

Something a bit different today, I've been looking at some building options for my 1970 Cops and Robbers mini Project and came across O Gauge Cardstock buildings for Model Railway layouts. Bought one and was very impressed.

I've done a little video (top link) and a blog post (bottom link looking more closely at the pros and cons of using these sorts of buildings in gaming contexts, love to here your thoughts.

Many thanks Paul, I've been watching old episodes to get scenario ideas, I've been caught humming it at work 😂

They work very well as a backdrop or board edge, but as you say on your blog they probably need strengthening with art board or similar.
