Here’s what you’re seeing in that tray: 🧱 Dungeon / Terrain Tiles - Stone floors & brick patterns – modular floor sections you arrange into rooms and corridors - Cobblestone paths – streets or outdoor town areas - Rough rock / cave tiles – underground caverns or mines 🧩 Modular Pieces - Interlocking edges or grid-based bottoms so tiles snap or align consistently - Designed to be rearranged between sessions 🗿 Scatter & Props - Small raised details like broken stone, rubble, or decorative elements - Used to add cover, obstacles, or visual int…

EXTRACTED KNOWLEDGE / HOW-TO
- Stone floors & brick patterns – modular floor sections you arrange into rooms and corridors
- Cobblestone paths – streets or outdoor town areas
- Rough rock / cave tiles – underground caverns or mines
- Interlocking edges or grid-based bottoms so tiles snap or align consistently
- Designed to be rearranged between sessions
- Small raised details like broken stone, rubble, or decorative elements
- Used to add cover, obstacles, or visual interest
- Much cheaper than buying commercial terrain
