what are the terrain size thresholds for FoG? I am looking at making some new stuff soon and dont want them t be FoG-unfriendly
A normal size piece must be able to fit a 4x6in rectangle within it's permiter and it must entirely fit within a 12in dia circle. The 4x6 restriction means no "baguette hills" - a favourite DBM feature - or micro features.
A large (i.e. double) size piece must be able to fit a 4x6in rectangle within it's perimiter. Its footprint cannot be entirely fitted within a 12in dia circle, but must entirely fit within a 16in dia circle - i.e. between 12 & 16in max size.
If using metric then 1in = 25mm. Terrain size is identicle for 15mm and 25mm.
Terrain is graded into 5 grades:
- Clear
- Uneven (open fields, broken ground)
- Rough (brush, enclosed field, plantation/orchard, gully)
- Difficult(forest, vineyard, marsh, soft sand, village, steep hill)
- Impassable (very steep hill, quarry, Oxford Circus London at rush hour)
