Quick answer

Choose Verdant Forest for immersive cover and line-of-sight blocking, or Snowy Rivers & Roads for dynamic movement challenges and difficult ground.

Cover vs Movement: The Core Difference

The Verdant Forest set focuses on creating areas of woods that break line-of-sight and provide cover with its trees and stump. In contrast, Snowy Rivers & Roads is all about shaping movement across the battlefield with icy rivers and stony pathways that add difficult ground.

Versatility on the Table

Verdant Forest includes three pre-painted trees with removable canopies and a double-sided neoprene template, letting you scatter trees for cover or set up a defined forest area. Snowy Rivers & Roads offers five double-sided rugged neoprene templates, each with a stony pathway and an icy river ending in a pond, giving you multiple layout options for different scenarios.

Trade-offs at a glance

  • Verdant Forest: Cover and Immersion: Use the trees and stump on the template to represent an area of Woods or a Forest. Scatter trees on your table to break line-of-sight and provide cover. Best if your game relies on line-of-sight and tactical cover.
  • Snowy Rivers & Roads: Movement and Challenge: Use the stony pathways to guide movement through snow-covered woods, and the icy rivers with ponds to add difficult ground that slows or redirects units. Ideal for scenarios where terrain affects movement and positioning.
  • Combining Both Sets: Place the Snowy Rivers & Roads templates within or around the Verdant Forest template to create a varied battlefield with both cover and movement obstacles. Combining both sets offers the most tactical depth.
