When fully assembled, the "Fantasy Battleground" gamescape measures 24" x 32" and depicts a winding road where a battle of some sort has taken place. The flames and smoke suggest a very recent battle, and the two catapults in the upper right-hand corner suggest a siege, as does the large object in the top left, which appears to be a battering ram. However, there is no sign of a city wall, only some fragments of what might be a busted palisade. It makes you wonder (and not really in a good way) what that battering ram is doing there, so far away from the city gate. The style used by designer Alida Sazon seems somewhat impressionistic to me, producing a noticeably more "artsy" and less "realistic" style than I tend to prefer in products of this type. That's just personal preference, of course, and the gamescape does a pretty good job of delivering what it offers. As a general comment about this series, I do wish Savage Mojo would include an "overview" page showing a miniature version of the assembled map.
