Just thought I'd share some pics of our latest Alpha Strike game. Although this terrain was originally created for Battletech, it also works well for Alpha Strike which is now our preferred game mode.
The boards only define alternate hexes which helps create a more natural terrain feel. Hexes are 2in wide, with 1in elevations for hills. It took me quite some time to figure out how to do water and in the end it was really simple. 5mm foam board painted blue and coated in clear resin.
