I just started printing out the components (was trying to figure out the best and most economical way to do it). I settled on some photo-type paper for the terrain tiles and full-sized shipping labels for the counters. Also printed the tracks on three photo-type paper pages.



The photo paper works pretty well, for my purposes anyway (review and coverage). The counters, I wanted to be more sturdy, so I'm going to take the back off of some paper pads and use that cardboard to stick 'em to.

Now I'm not too keen on my scissor-fu, so this should come out pretty messy, unless I really take my time, which I don't have a lot of. Lol #firstworldgamerproblems

Get some chipboard at Hobby Lobby/Michaels and a heavy duty rotary cutter (I believe I got a 45mm...yes, yes, "that's what she said!").  You'll be much more pleased with the results.

+10 on the rotary cutter. I got a fiskars cutter this year and if you combine one of those with a big metal ruler you will be loaded for bear!
