Well it's not very ofte that a desert joins onto a forest, so you might want to give that some more thought if you plan on joining them. I think a desert with some rock formations and a desert/urban environment, a bit like Baghdad, if you get me, then you can mix them all that way.

Sand is common, I think. You can get green roll mats as well which might be a better idea, but then you'd have to probably do away with the desert idea. Or find a way to colour it.

Look into model railway roll mats.

ok i get what you mean. and it doesnt matter standing in lush forests then standing in the desert ^^ i will make it so the edges that meet will merge into each other

at the moment i have a sand coloured board and a greeny grass covered board. im thinking of putting about 2 hills a river some roads that manor mabye a trench and a small bridge so vehicles can cross. the desert im gonna get some city of death stuff for it. i might add a little ruined city to it my dad when i see him again said hes gonna do paper mache ruins with me

do you want your board to be arranged to benefit fire fights or hand to hand combat?  

[Fred smiths]

i want some close combat areas where good range orks can fight like the ork with the sniper choice. but also want areas of close combat i thinking of like a square buildings around the edge and a big area in the middle.

I'm not sure if anyone has said this before, but I have found old flat wooden doors to be cheap and easy to find gaming tables. close to the right length and if you put two of them side by side there the right width usually and it makes it easy to mix and match. My favourite is in one on one, one side picks the board for the other side and vice versa.
