Bought a doormat from local Lidl yesterday for 99p. It is corrugated, dark brown on one side and slightly lighter brown on the other. Ideal for making plough, road/track (may need to dry brush with a lighter shade of brown), base for woods etc. Easy to cut with craft knife or scissors. Label states that it is 60cm x 40cm but mine actually measures 59 x 39. Also available in black and grey. BTW neither I nor anyone I know is connected to Lidl in any way other than as customer.

You're playing DBA in your car? 4 games at once?

(Actually, they are for covering up all the mud that I’m too lazy to vacuum out... ...but you already knew that you mischievous people) Is that how you simulate the hills? |

I've heard there are illegal gangs of DBA players that apply all the house rules and custom army lists they want - they meet in discreet parking lots after hours...
I'm not suggesting you belong to one of those, stevie, but I'm not suggesting you don't, either.

Vic...the first rule of House Rules is: you do not talk about House Rules.

I thought the first rule of house rules was that they only apply in the house. If you’re in a car, then you have car rules :-)

Bought a doormat from local Lidl yesterday for 99p. Good spot, picked some up and have updated my plough and have a gully from the reverse side of the brown mat. Managed to do max and min size plough then some max and min size fields for lart with some spare left to make a couple more gullys. Not that I ever placed a gully in either DBA or Lart but at least I can if I want to.. Got a couple more mats to do some more terrain for BA and FOW etc. The reverse side would be good as a road actually and grey one could be pretty good as roads for modern stuff. They need a bit or tarting up but look ok, plenty of gaming systems now have some nice new brown fields for them. Thanks |

I have first hand experience of stevie's traffic woes. We certainly could've played a game of DBA via text whilst he was enjoying the fruits of modern infrastructure planning!  Cheers Jim |

Try explaining you got carpet burns from playing DBA though.
