Topic: Building sizes.

[commandant]

What foot print people giving buildings. I'm thinking 5 inches squared or something like that. Roughly the same size as an infantry regiment

[Mike Stockin]

Would that not depend on the building?

Barn, cottage, farmhouse, hut, church etc, could (should?) all be quite different?

[commandant]

I'm more thinking how much space do buildings normally take up on the gameboard.
So a small house might take up only 1/2 the space etc

Maybe a massive building is twice or three times the space etc.

Rulebook says 2-8" counts as 1 terrain piece. 8-12" counts as 2 terrain pieces.

[commandant]

I know but I'm not sure if that is a edge or squared. I assume a piece that is 8 inches along one edge and 8 inches deep counts as more than 1 terrain piece or is it  just one.

Could I, as a wood elf, bring a forest which is that size?

It says width. ....they could have used "radius or diametre" but they did not. So squares are fine.

[commandant]

I suppose this means in something like 2/3 of the board could be covered in terrain

[The Peacemaker]

If both players choose to place the biggest squares, then sure.
