It's going to be something...
Going underground
I realised that I had completely forgotten to post anything about the sewers beneath the layout. I had taken pictures but didn’t get around to sharing them, so these are a little out of sequence.
There are a few areas around the edges of the layout where the sewer tunnels expand into the middle of the layout and I didn’t want to let the opportunity to have sewer games pass me by.
I printed off a whole load of Straight sections, T-intersections, Crossroads and Bends. Some are smaller tunnels that will ultimately form a maze towards a larger central tunnel.
To create a fog of war feeling I printed off thin covers for the sewers. Initially Grey but then changed to black. I still have more to do to replace the remaining grey covers.
For these to fit correctly the tiles above them are slightly thinner than those without sewers beneath.
I also printed out some simple risers just to save some time and to support the upper level.
For the time being, I have just placed the sewers in any old order beneath the board to support the upper flagstone layer. When I return to this project in the future it will be to finish off and expand the sewer network.
For now, I’m happy with just having the sewers playable around the edges of the table down the line though, I have some ideas in mind but those will have to wait for now.
