In Madrid and i think under canvas so obviously a perfect climate. Would last about a week in K-W even in our best months. These have to be buildings done by professionals for movies or something. It's unbelievable, not sure what it would be like for battling in.

The buildings are amazing!
The one shop that had the external wiring and meter was incredible
And the poured cobblestone roads!

Besides the obvious insane talent to build those buildings and streets I think there has to be someone funding the many 10 thousands of euros to actually produce that
See the wheelbarrow they use. Damn it's the Rolls Royce of wheelbarrows

This field also has huge elevations/depressions and changes to ground level that is amazing; we could do that in our field

Wheelbarrow with its 1 piece tubular frame is more sporty...like a Bentley Continental SC.

To be fair I think we already do have the elevation and depression dialed in pretty good on the north side. Plus when the river valleys are cleaned out that will also add more of that aspect but yes we can definitely do something a bit more interesting in that southwest quarter of the field. The more I look at those buildings I think they might be the ones made of foam which I've seen videos of dioramas that are just incredible using them. It looks like you need a proper saw to cut the blocks of foam and obviously in our climate it's a non starter. With the wind gusts at the field it would look like the aftermath of a tornado. But we do have the same green lawn chair

No doubt the north end has interesting features. Definitely need some magic on the south side to add interest and balance the playability when doing split field battles.
