My next two or three sets will be small ruins, mostly partial walls and small corner pieces. These will be good for scattering around your gaming table, filling in between larger ruins.
The first set consists of four different cross-pieces -- four-way walls that slot into each other easily. You can mix and match these, giving you lots of options.
I'm going to give them a variety of textures, including concrete, bricks in a couple of different colors, and plaster-and-beams, so they'll be useful for almost any genre.
I expect to finish this first set in just a couple of days -- in time for your weekend gaming.

My first set of crosspiece ruins worked out so well, and were so much fun to design, that I'm now working on a second set!
The second set will be perfectly compatible with the first set, and will feature all-new wall shapes and new options for linking them together.
In my first set, each wall piece either had slot-up or slot-down compatibility. This new set will feature some walls that have a slot-up and a slot-down (and maybe even some walls that have three slots).
These will feature the same selection of textures as the first set, so they'll be useful for almost any genre, from medieval to the World Wars to post-apoc.

Thanks for the encouragement!
I don't know why I didn't think of these earlier. They're pretty easy to design, very easy to assemble, and you can create lots and lots of terrain and obstacles with them.
I was a little concerned that they wouldn't be sturdy enough, but with just a little bit of glue along the joins, they're as tough as any other paper model. I expect that I'll be able to use this slotting technique on other, more elaborate models somewhere down the line.

The are excellent, I've got them all made up now and with just one printout of each set they cover a lot of ground. In fact, if you don't glue them you could probably carry an entire Mordheim layout in an A4 envelope as they'd store totally flat  I'll try and get some photos of our layout later. |

I'm putting together a new set of these crosspiece walls now. These new wall sections all feature archways. They'll have the same texture options as the other sets, and of course they'll be compatible and intermixable with the other sets.
There are 13 wall sections in this new Ruined Archways set, on a total of 6 pages. I'm going to price this the same as the other sets ($2.95 US).
I'm nearly done with the textures on this one, so there's a good chance it'll be released sometime tomorrow (Tuesday).
