When a gamer looks down on the wargaming table, it's a bit like the view from a medium level bomber. The trees seem to join together in one continuous forest canopy. Local colour variations of individual trees blend together.
Resilient dense tree canopy style woods and forests that can prevent close inspection by opponents.
'Tree trunks' provide headroom for miniatures, so they aren't disturbed when
the foliage is lifted and can be adjusted for when the forest is on a hillside (in photos of my earlier games, the original stick supports were used. The new ones are better!)

The supports are always held firm with no wear and tear on the foliage.
No more turrets displaced or picking your way through individual trees!
Can be placed on slopes, unlike individual tree type forests or forest canopies with rigid bases.

Looks good close up or from the usual long distance gamer's view.

Each set is cut from a standard 7" x 7" (18cm x 18cm) section of tree canopy material and is available as per the TerrainShed website.
