Hi,
I realize I'm a bit late to disagree, but I would prefer green
baseplates under the stores (16x16 or16x32) but then lay tan plates down as
the road. That way we would have full baseplate use and the trodden road
many have been asking for. Also with the shop taking up most of the plate
the base, color would not be such a big issue and some could have tan
plates,road goes right up to store, and others could have grass verges.
On the current system a cart would crush everyone on the road and you won't
really be able to appreciate the buildings when we get a big scape.
Please tell me if I'm alone on this,
God Bless,
Nathan
