Buffalo Chip II:
Remodeled, Reworked, An' Rarin' To Go!

A Passel of Improvements, Cowpoke

"Old Buffalo Chip" circa 1996 – Single-color printed buildings hand-painted with thinned acrylics. Now the town is printed in full color, with realistic windows, streets, board sidewalks, and your choice of signs.

Since 1971, the town of Buffalo Chip has seen a variety of incarnations, each more authentic and "gameable" than the last.

Starting in 54mm, and scaled for 25/28mm gaming figures since 1996, it just keeps getting better!

Now, Studio 33 is proud to announce that Buffalo Chip has been completely upgraded.

Color printing with new and beautiful textures greatly enhance the graphics, and new attention to the details of construction make this the best version to date of an old favorite.

In the latest Buffalo Chip, some buildings, such as the Bank/Attorney and Newspaper Offices, have been enlarged, and other improvements have been made. All buildings are now printed with realistic window "glass" (including business name and advertising) in place, and the acetate windows are now optional. Players may use the buildings as printed, or cut out the windows and use the printed acetate "glass." The sets of signs and acetate windows are now no longer figured into individual building prices, but constitute an optional Accessory Set for each building.

Another change is the addition of the town street. A 10" x 6.5" section of dirt street, complete with wood plank sidewalk (showing breaks and knotholes) 1.5" wide, now comes part and parcel with each building. There are three different sections for greater individuality which may also be bought separately. Modular construction and arrangement of whole streets is now easier than ever.

Finally, the full color cardstock sheets comprising Buffalo Chip are now professionally printed for a reliably superior product.

Originally designed to represent the classic Kansas "Cow Town" with it's single East-West running street, Buffalo Chip can now be constructed in a variety of forms, from mining towns, to farm communities, border towns, or whatever else you like. In fact, with little or no modification, Buffalo Chip's buildings can be used for Victorian-era European settlements in colonial areas all over the world.

Now you can build your Old West gaming town one structure at a time or buy the whole works in three package deals--right down to the outhouses!

Give the new Buffalo Chip buildings a try. You'll find that for economy, detail, and practicality , they can't be beat!
