We've been thinking about that kind of thing too. We're not going to go
for 
terrain squares or octagons (at times like this you wish you hadn't
given 
away your set of terrain octagons to your father/father-in-law), but
will 
have some hills/pieces that can be mixed-n-matched together. We'll also 
have some stand alone stuff. The relative amounts of each depends on how

easy this all works out to be.

Cool.

Different ;)
Are you going to go for brick work, plaster or flat effect to the wall 
surfaces?

Cheers
