There are eight terrain related kickstarters going on right
now.
Setting: Sci-Fi & Fantasy
Scale: 28mm & 15mm
Stretch Goals: Yes
Construction: Unfold
Material: 2mm board
Visual Detail: Colour, 2D, High Detail
What you get: A fold out setting board to play on to provide
a stylized base for terrain and troops. The details are flat but well done and
provide a nice alternative to a single coloured piece of wood or floor. One of
the key features is that they are easy to pick up and transport folding up and
storing in a transport box which comes with your pledge.

What you get: This is definitely one of the more interesting
terrain kickstarters to date. Like so many others it uses laser cut wood, but
instead of being a series of gantries and fortifications the pieces assemble
into a dungeon environment; a modular dungeon design system. Easy to store and
transport, it appears well designed. Keep your eye on this one.
