Well, I have the dimensions and all of that, and want a nice, custom table. Anyone have any idea what mats would be best, and any tips? or a link to one? Examples would work too. |

Do you want the table to focus on being functional or being cool? Also do you want to be able to transport it without a car? |

transport is not an issue, and functionally cool would be nice |

Grr.. I wanna make a table so badly. But there's absolutely nobody in the New York City Metro Area that plays blood bowl so it'd just be more solitaire.  |

I'd check that on TBB, you might be suprised. |

I'd like it to be fairly durable, fairly light at the same time, and still look good. So, again, Ideas? |

Here is my idea, buy a castle kit from some russian company, build the walls for the outside wall, then use the Crenellated top of the wall to make a mold of the field level wall that rings the field. after that, use flock to mark the field, you can use a stencil the dugout and even freehand a scatter template on top of one of the towers... at least, that's what I would do.

DM used to make killer boards, called Hyperpitches. Not sure if he's still doing it, or if he's still active here on fumbbl, but he'd have a wealth of info on the subject. |

Now that is an idea worth stealing  |
