Might be Ainsty you are talking about. Their website is
http://www.ainsty.co.uk/.

Hope this helps.

That could be either Ainsty www.ainsty.co.uk or Monolith whose web link I
can't remember. Tony Finan "I fix things, like cars, people, horse races."

Thank you, Mr.Finan!

At first I went to Monolith, and thought there wasn't anything similar to what
was asked. Then, I drilled down in some of the selections.

Before I go on, I must point out after seeing the first question, I thought
'Ainsty', which should impress all that a rustic fellow in Nebraska should
have that name pop into his head at the first. However, I was even more
surprised to see how the number of lines have grown! Could you possibly want
any others?

Then I went to Monolith; there are actually niches filled that weren't exactly
matched on Ainsty, as encylopedic as their catalog seems. Mirabile dictu!

Now, I'm certainly proud of our own Armorcast and Epicast; plenty of nifty and
unique stuff. But the breadth of these two UK organizations when it comes to
terrain takes away my breath.

Now, if you go a-hunting on Ainsty, notice that they've thoughtfully put
figs on the terrain and included links to manufacturers. No complaints about a
lack of useful piccies here! However, I didn't notice any back to GZG.
Consider this your own 'Where's Waldo'.

I would guess you mean PMC. They have a wide range of reasonably priced

No, 2" by 2" is two inches, square... ;->=

Still, while the square foam-based terrain is of less interest to me,
whatever the original questioner feels, I'm most grateful for the link on
the somewhat off-topic Victoriana at War items. Definitely passing this
on
to my VSF-crazed bro!

Yup! It was Aintsy all right. Thanks to everyone who responded.

Pretty indeed, especially with their claims to six to seven new pieces per
month. Do you know if they 'work' with the Ainsty? Look similar, and it'd be a
joy to add even more to possibilities, but a) they appear to use a 5cm
standard while Ainsty seems to tend to sides in increments of 3cm, b) it's
damn hard to eyeball thickness from the gallery, though it looks promising...
