I had an opponent try this exact tactic with his Med Polish vs my Med Germans yesterday.
I found a great 'loop-hole" in the rules to prevent it.

I rolled a 5 to make him pick up the River and a 6 to make him pick up the road. LOL

You see you managed to find that rule that others forgot about.

It may not look as good but I now use thin layers of mdf as it is a lot more practical.

One solution I've seen is to put a tiny bit of blu-tak on the bottom of the bases. It creates just enough friction to stop them sliding down the hill.

I find that the best approach is to be friendly and tell the opponent where "they really are" and have never had an issue.
