I made the bases of the buildings rubble hexes with ruined building walls. the white edge of the wall provides partial cover.

Effective way to make the building class and high visible !
Can mechs be placed on top of the buildings ?

Thanks, yes the buildings are strong enough to have even the heaviest mech upon them. The building are color coded and their tops each have their rating (light, medium, heavy, and hardened)printed on them. The levels are clearly marked at 1" intervals for easy identification.

Any chance we can get them as downloads?

I have a local  gaming convention at the beginning of May, were I will run a Grinder-Scenario using my Heroscape sets.

Looking at your pictures it would be cool to have a city fight this time.

That is a fantastic idea.  If you ever post the PDF's of the various buildings, I'd be very interested in downloading them.

Bravo!
