As a teenager, in the '90s, together with friends we put together 3 boxes worth of tiles together to create a mega map for a huge game. It was permanently blue-tac'ed to these cork tiles on my wall. With the pieces and everything, so I'd have to keep putting a tile with all its little minis back up on the wall every now and then. We would take our turns, and whenever a battle occurred we would play a Warhammer tabletop battle or skirmish. I remember baggage trains being quite important, to keep armies stocked for their marches. Great times, yep a "golden age" in miniature tabletop gaming, at least IMO. We had them all represented in the game from loads of us playing: Bretonnia, High Elves, Chaos, Dwarves, Wood Elves, Undead. The only problem was a lot of us were getting to that age where the focus decidedly pivoted away from playing GW games, or RPGs, and the grand campaign never got finished. Eventually I just took all of the map off the wall.
