A useful look-see. They look good for 28mm and 'Epic' basing. But would be too wide for anything else such as 15mm, 10mm and 6mm forces for most other rules systems. For example my 6mm Napoleonics are 30mm wide bases used in Black Powder & Bloody Big Battles and road columns would look like they are on a motorway. If Warlord would like to do 'half-scale' MDF widths then they may open up the market place wider.
Looks like you have a bit of work with the roads and rivers. What is the material for the stickers? Paint some latex on the back or go to Ikea and get some non slip mat stuff to put on the back.
The stickers are vinyl I think. I was thinking of putting some silicone on the backs of them. But the mat from ikea sounds like a good idea. Plus it’ll give me an excuse to have meatballs chips and gravy lol
Very nice review Leon,if I had the room I'd buy them both,nice in-depth look👍👍👍👍👍,plus out if 28mm or epic it looks like it suits epic better scale wise
The river makes sense to only have 1 set as you won’t generally have forking etc, what’s your opinion on the roads, with splits etc would it be better to get 2 packs of them?
Useful video. Too wide for me though as I need to be able to use them for 15mm WW2 / ancients as well. You are using the standard 60mm Epic bases so the roads must be 70-80mm wide from the looks of it.
They don’t look half bad mate. Shame they leave you a sticker short, but warlord do funny things all the time. Off the top of my head, I might try putting some of the non-slip matting stuff you can get. It’s pretty cheap and would probably work a treat to stop everything moving around. 🙂
Typical warlord lol. Could of done with an extra crossroads or ford. Yep I’ll look in B&M or IKEA for the non slip stuff. Probably Ikea so I can get some meatballs lol
Thank you for reviewing these, I was unsure what they’d be like. I like the artwork, still not sure if I’ll pick these up or some of the new self cut ones from Geek Villain. I’m mostly using soft mats with contouring for historical games, so these rigid ones might not suit.
Indeed. I’ll probably make my own in the future. I got an incredibly good deal on these and they’re useful for a quick fix. Pretty much straight out the box to gaming table with no hassle
Great review. Interesting product. Thanks for showing it off.
Thanks buddy
Cracking reviews. Very useful. Thanks!
Thanks David
Thanks for doing a video on these sets. They do look nice. Thanks mate 👍
No worries mate. Hope it was helpful
Very helpful. Thank you
I like the rivers the best. Cool unboxing
Yes the rivers are nicer
I found this product review very informative and useful.
lol thanks Paul
Very informative and through review 👍
Thanks buddy
Nice one Leon, Good review, i like the roads, not sure on the river seems to dark to me,
They are a bit dark but I do quite like the rivers. I’m planning on making my own in the summer. Once I get a few battalions painted

I think you could probably get away with 15mm but I agree anything smaller and the roads wouldn’t really work. The river would still be ok though.
Great review mate 👍
Thanks Martin 😊

Cheers mate. I think I like the rivers best. I agree could do with being a bit wider for 28mm. They’ll do for now until I make my own
Nice review, Leon. I think I prefer the river to the roads.
Thanks Eric. Yep me too

I think 2 sets of roads would be better. It’s a pity they don’t do a add on pack for them with more junctions.

Thanks Ed. I think the cut out roads from Geek villain might be what your looking for

To be charitable it is a spare, to be realistic it is cost cutting. One could ask are we getting one less or one more?
Just a bit odd they don’t just put that one extra sticker in the set? I’d imagine it’s just a bit of bean counting and looks a bit tight on their part

I do like the flexi roads. Much more useful for gaming. I’ll check Geek Villain out.
Felt on the back would help
Thanks Dom. I was thinking maybe using some silicone
@@leont66wargaming31 less likely to lie flat maybe? Depends on how slippy the surface underneath is as well
That’s true. Might be a bit uneven with silicone. Apparently IKEA has non slip mats.
@@leont66wargaming31 places like B&M have rolls of non slip stuff in the kitchen aisle. I use them for my really useful boxes
Nice one. I’ll take a look
All very well but ... you could do this yourself and get exactly what you want with some card, paper and a bit of glue.
Indeed. I’ll probably make my own in the future. I got an incredibly good deal on these and they’re useful for a quick fix. Pretty much straight out the box to gaming table with no hassle
Nice review Leon, they look good mate
Thanks buddy. I like the rivers best
Good review. Stickers missing; Epic Waterloo looks great but Warlord seem to find so many new ways to disappoint us.
Lol. Yep it’s almost like they do it on purpose
@@leont66wargaming31 I don't know about deliberate but they're certainly consistent 😁
😂😂🤣🤣
