the amera buildings are good, they do require a bit of cutting and stuff for the buildings but the ruble stuff is cool and has been designed with games in mind with little platforms for troops to stand on.
the floors have 2 positions low resting down on the gap for the floor or pushed up the gap to reduce the gap between window and floor, this is the one you use for bf figs IMHO.
they arrived while i was at open day, and there very nice. i can see me chucking the chemicl plant on ebay to buy more amera stuff now. just need to see how it paints up first.

I spent the best part of 2 hours experimenting with a hilux last night.
No I didnt damage it, nor make it look damaged, I just added details to make it look like I painted it, I love it now.
Did this to the black one (seemed easiest),
Drybrushed it mid-grey, put some watered down dark brown paint in the back, let it dry for abotu 30 secs then dabbed some out with tissue, drybrushed some bone colour into there and repeated the process.
Gave the metals a wash of dark brown mixed with black to make them look less 'shiny' and more 'dirty'.
Repainted the 'lights' practically the same way as they had done, just with highlights.
Drybrushed the bottom area (where it would gather dirt most) a kind of dirty beige (graveyard earth) then lightly with bleached bone.
The rider was done later, I painted his skin dark flesh then highlighted this up to a mix of dwaf flesh and tanned flesh. The headscarf was given a wash of mid-grey then highlighted various shades of grey up to white.
The band holding this up was painted black.
His eyes were picked out with white paint and a small black pupil focusing in the same direction.
The clothing was washed with graveyward earth and highlighted up to bleached bone.
The gun was block painted gun metal and then given a wash of black, some areas were picked out with 'chainmail'.
The belt details were then picked out (buttons, belt).
Now imo it looks quite professional.

You need to dirty up those construction vehicles, they don't blend to well all shiny and all! If you build an outhouse I'll build two!

Does anyone know the conversion of size of this game to hobby train size? I figure that hobby train stores are going to have tons of city stuff, and one of my local stores has a clearance frequesntly. I figure I can just buy up that stuff and mess it up some.

Sounds good.

BF:EVO is closest to "S" (1/64) scale, but this scale is not as popular as the HO (1/87), N (1/160), or O (1/48) scale. O scale will work and there are a lot of building kits and accessories out there in that scale that could be transferred over to BF:EVO.

I won some O scale plasticville buildings off eBay this weekend. When I get them I'll post pics with figures for scale.

Okay, so S may be closer it looks like, but not as popular. If the models are 30mm high, then I would guestimate that doors should be about 35mm or so.
Looking forward to building some terrain. At least I don't have to waste time on painting models.
