Chaos in Carpathia Inspiration

One of the sites I frequent daily in my web wanderings is the Lead Adventure Forum. I was so pleased to find this wonderful Chaos in Carpathia thread featuring the terrain designs of LAF member Jet, complete with pictures, on there this week.

I've had the good fortune to write quite a few rule sets over the years, but with the exception of SuperSystem, none have been more successful, or brought me more personal gratification, than Carpathia. I just love the damn thing, and seeing others playing it at this level does my heart good!

Here's one shot of his tremendous stuff:



So thanks, Jet! You made my week!

  1. Around these parts we're dusting off the Cairo rulebook, but our terrain seems lacking compared to these pics!

  2. I know! I had the good fortune of play-testing on my buddy Sweet Lou's massive collection of MBA pre-painted buildings and scenery, and my cohort Lee Howard is an ace terrain maker, but I don't personally own a setup as nice as Jet's.

  3. The one failing in my collection is storage space big enough for all the cool terrain I'd love to own. Pics like the one above make me want to go buy lotto tickets to get that plan in action.

  4. Well Scott, you've made my week by writing this post and complimenting
    my work ;)

    Cheetahmaster - no need for lotto tickets. All you need is a cheap
    plastic shelf or set of storage drawers to store the stuff. Other than
    that, the vast bulk of terrain in the photos is made from cardboard,
    glue, sand, and craft paint. In fact, last night I finished priming
    Grunberg's Lunatic Asylum, a piece constructed primaily from three
    wooden jewelry boxes from the dollar store.

    Before long I'll have finished the bulk of the terrain, and then my
    group will be ready to start our Gothic Horror gaming.
