Indeed, personal preference.  I love the scatter terrain because when looking at photos of the real old west it is almost always all over the place.  A good game needs lots of cover.  From a movie, but not history, the store shoot out in Chisum is a case in point.

And, as I said, the buildings were very good.  Oh, and, yes, I am hard to please!   ;)

 .....Does remind me that I need to get to work on my own Old West project - trains to be worked on this weekend hopefully.  So, thanks for the inspiration.
Looking forward to seeing your project (I like scatter😄). You’ve certainly set the bar very high for yourself!

I like it.
A lot!

Thanks for dragging it from the depths, Doc, as I had not seen these shots before.
It has given me a few ideas too.

So, on the subject of scatter terrain, would railroad locomotives and cars count as scatter terrain or not?  In my case they will, in certain cases - many cases, be dynamic elements in the game because they will be able to move.  Other pieces will be static.

If that counts, locos and cars, then I'm busy this weekend making progress on 54 pieces of 'scatter terrain'.  

And we'll see if I get over that bar or fall woefully short.  If the latter, I'll stand up and take it like a man.  Oh, wait, can I duck behind that stack of sacks first?!   lol

What of wagons and carts?  Do they count as scatter terrain or not.  Or, like the trains, if dynamic, no, if static, yes?  Assuming, of course.   

Have lots of boxes, barrels, bags, various and sundry 'furnishings', etc. for my scatter terrain - but can always add more.

That looks amazing.  Thanks for sharing all of those photo and the peek at that interior.  The Sheriff's office and jail is a really neat structure.

Is this the ten year anniversary of this thread?  lol

It's made me remember how much I enjoyed LotOW. I must dig out my old wild west stuff and dust off the rules one day.
