Sweet.
I've got one set, and I want the cards for using it with Warcry, but no-one's selling them separate, so I might go get a second. Maaaaybe.
I'm liking foamex for basing terrain at the moment. The compacted plastic-surfaced foam stuff used for signs. It doesn't warp like wood can do when it gets wet glue on it, and the thickness v. stiffness (v. cost and weight) is really good.
(I pinched some offcuts from the machine operator I share an office with. Raw PVA doesn't stick to it at all well, but I'm finding it's good with UHU, or a scratched surface and a mix of PVA and polyfilla.)

That might be the stuff I've ended up with. Thanks for the tip regarding glue in that case; I'd probably have driven myself barmier trying to get the stuffs to hold together.
I could be persuaded to part with one or both of my Gardens. I like them, but I like home-made terrain more, and I finally have a good stash of materiel for that.

Sounds like it's one of two sorts of board that you might have. (There might be other sorts, but these are what I've met.)
- There's the paper/card covered foam, about 5mm thick, that I've run into in art shops, and gets used by artists. Cuts very easily, and makes good buildings. I know it as foam board.
- There's the 2-3mm thick, plastic coated, compacted foam, much more rigid, that gets used for sign making. Takes quite a bit more cutting, less good for buildings unless you've got a cnc router to cut the stuff, but great for bases. I know it as foamex, but it might have other names. Plascraft use it to make their prefab wargaming buildings.

The Gardens, it needs to be the Corpsewrack Mausoleum set, including cards.
(I need to give you a definitive list of Dark Elfs... (Also, a mate said the other day that he's got a bunch more going spare. I'll find out what's there, in case that's of interest.))
